Description:
Story on George Gipp, Reagan's adoption of the phrase "do it for the Gipper", and a comparison of the real George Gipp with the character who Reagan played in the film. Footage of Reagan quoting Gipp, old football footage, scenes from "Knute Rockne, All American" with Reagan as George Gipp, and quotes from Frank Leahy's book "Shake Down the Thunder." Some bad video. Reporter voice-over throughout. Sound.
