# Analysis of Judge Magazine Page **Top Cartoon:** Shows a football player boasting to a woman ("No rough stuff, nose, boys; I gotta date with my sweetie tonight"). The accompanying monologue reveals the irony—the lineman complains about being repeatedly injured despite playing football for years. The joke satirizes the contradiction between athletic bravado and the physical toll of the sport, particularly football's brutal nature. **Bottom Cartoon:** Depicts what appears to be a college football huddle or team gathering, with the caption "Ue'n goose to work for de Princetone?" This likely mocks either Princeton's football program or wealthy college athletics generally, possibly satirizing class dynamics or the commercialization of college sports in that era. Both cartoons criticize football's violence and its social implications.

ee FUE Real tonight.” ga “No rough stuff, now, “Use'n’t youse ta woik for de Princetons?” Ars Longa, Vita Brevis Here I've been bucking the line for the better part of an hour with no results. I've never seen a line like it in my whole carcer and I’ve played football for cight years, four in prep school and four in college. People think that alla lincman needs is brawn. It's soa guy has to have srains as well if he’s to crash through a regular stone wall like this. Believe me, Dll be darned glad when this is over. Wonder what the newspapers will say about this line? They. sure deserve credit for holding the way they do. A fellow gets punish ment from in front and behind Wish it were possible to take time out. Ah! There goes a whistle now. Maybe somebody's hurt. Nope, no such luck; we gained a few yards then, though. Well, 1 suppose it's all in the game, but it sure is tough when a fellow has to stand in a line like this just to see a punk movie.
