Good question! Ralston played football under Waldorf at Ca.l, coached Stanford, Plunkett and Bunce in successive Rose Bowls and was part of yet another rebirth of Spartan football in the 90s (and had an office there until recently). Divided loyalties indeed.
All I can say is when I saw him at the games he was wearing a Red Sweater (and a helpful name tag at one of 'em). His seats were near the top of the first level and a few seats off the aisle, shady side. No one really bothered him but there was sure a lot of people nudging each other and an occasional handshakes when he walked by. No doubt the seating helped an octogenarian avoid the hustle and bustle of the stairs after a game. Although With the tunnels and nearby parking our stadium is easily accessible.

In 1938 Neville Chamberlain declared "Peace in our time", Superman first appeared in Action Comics, Seabiscuit beat War Admiral ....... and C.a.l last won the Rose Bowl.
