of the later 50's. That was when I first started seeing them on news stands and reading them. I was about 9 years old and I specifically remember seeing pictures of him in Street and Smith, as I recall, and perhaps others. I was a Notre Dame fan after having read a book on Rockne and I didn't even know the school colors. When I looked in the back of the magazine where they carried the team schedules, name of the head coach, mascot and team colors I was a bit anxious because I hated the color red and hoped for something in blue or green. Bingo! The magazine said "Gold and Blue" and I was thrilled. Later I saw pictures from earlier seasons and was perplexed to see Green as well but, hey, that was my favorite color. I lucked out in ND using my favorite colors in the world. Ah, to be a kid again.
