One's own be missing, but these songs include some of the the most popular and fa mous melodies that ever echoed across a campus. From kickoff to the final whistle, the spirit of great football games is captured in these performances with rousing effect. Listen now, as the band comes out on the field!Almost alone among sports, the football game has been responsible for a large number of vigorous, hearty songs. Naturally, this stems from the colleges that have built football into a flourishing American enterprise, for colleges have long been fine incubators of lusty song. Many of the names of the composers may be lost in the ivied halls, but their songs still sing out of a Saturday afternoon with undiminished vitality.In this collection of football songs, Percy Faith has selected sixteenrepresentative college tunes, four from the East, four from the South, four from the Middle West and four from the West. In addi tion, there is Mr. Touchdown, U.S.A. as a salute to the players themselves, the time-honored and ever-delightful tful Collegiate, and that fine old march, so often used as a victory song and/or snake dance, When the Saints Go Marching In. Almost any crisp Saturday afternoon in the au tumn, these songs take their place among the moulting racoon coats, the fluttering pennants and thethermos jugs as part of the gen eral excitement of watching twenty-two men (and more) push the proverbial pigskin around the field. Not only are these songs closely allied with the general ex citement, they are part of that ex citement, frequently giving rather more support and fighting spirit to the spectators than to the team. Whether one delights in sitting in a stadium for football, or prefers to acquire his information about. the game via electronics, these songs will all be familiar and wel come.
