...there is something to be said for a little back-slapping in the opening schedule. College Football is gone from my home town, a victim of, budget cuts and dwindling student support at the University of Buffalo. Yet, other schools are cutting the budget and losing fans, and the game goes on. Buffalo's big problem was its schedule. For several years in the early '60's the Bulls ran through the local competition (Gettysburg, Bucknell, Villanova, B.U.), so the administration began scheduling two opening games with nationally recognized teams (North Carolina State, Toledo, Ohio University).

...Buffalo set out to prove where it stood in national competition, proved it, and soon lost its fans for the little league games. So maybe its a good thing for Harvard to plan on opening with two wins.

Federal agencies in Buffalo have been in chaos due to the delays. Leases on present space in other buildings are expiring, and one agency has attempted to move in despite the fact that the building is unfinished. The office workers must pick their way through mud and construction material to reach their still incomplete quarters. The role of the Mafia...
