That day, marked by a thousand thrills thattouched the heart of every loyal alumnus and undergraduate, marked the begin-ning of a new era. On that day Illinois came into her own and came to stay. It was only a football game. But a game that will never be forgotten, forit stamped itself on the mind and heart of every man who loves his Alma Mater. It was football, not luck nor a jinx, but pure, unadulterated football thatpushed Pogue and Clark across the line, that guided the ball from the toe ofMacomber. It was Football that turned a page in history and marked it—ILLINOIS FOREVER.
