[NU Sports] Saul Bellow

[MHRJGScott at aol.com]

One of our Nobel prize winning alums has passed away.  As an NU  undergrad 
english major I just love this part of his obit: 

"After graduating in 1933 from Tuley, Bellow enrolled at the University  of 
Chicago. But feeling "restless and confined" after two years on the Midway,  he 
transferred to Northwestern where, in 1937, he graduated with honors in  
anthropology and sociology."
 
I think he left because of the poor state of the football team at  the U of C 
which caused them to drop the sport in  1939.
