New Year's Day
Was Not Always
On January 1
New Year’s was not always cele
brated on January 1. In fact,
even today New Years comes on
different dates for some peoples.
Prior" to September 14, 1752,
England and her colonies regard
ed January 1 with indifference be
cause New Year’s day was ob
served on March 25.
Today, many people who con
tinue to use the Gregorian calendar
still solemnize traditional feasts,
including New Year, on different
days. The Gregorian calendar
was not presented to the world
until 1582 by Pope Gregory XIII.
The Jews observe a 10-day New
Year season at the time of the au
tumn equinox, beginning on Rosh
Hashana and ends on Yom Kippur.
The Moslem calendar (dating
from 626, A. D.) has 12 months of
the year that" begin with the ap
proximate new moon without any
intercalation to keep them geared
to the seasonal equinoxes. As a re
sult New Years and months re
trograde through the entire year
in about 33V2 years.
Bowl Games Have
Become American
New Year Tradition
Bowl games have become a
great American New Year’s tradi
tion.
The fabulous Rose Bowl game
started out as a supplement to the
Tournament of Roses when the
first east-west game was played
on January 1, 1902. In that game
the University of Michigan barn
stormed to a 49 to 0 victory over
Stanford.
The success of the Rose Bowl i
classic has “mushroomed” vari
ous bowl games from coasi to
coast. Among the many, there are
the Orange Bowl, the Sun Bowl,
the Sugar Bowl, the Gater Bowl,
Hawaii’s Pineapple Bowl and even
Alaska’s Ice Bowl.
But getting back to the Rose
Bowl, after the first year a chariot
race was substituted for the game
in 1903. Originally run with ama
teur drivers, the chariot races be
came professional affairs after
the first few years and the public
lost interest.
The year 1916 brought a return
to collegiate football via a contest
in which Washington state defeat
ed Brown university.
The Rose Bowl has been going
strong ever since.
