Biographical/Historical Note The following is an audio clip from an oral history interview with Willie F. Moore. "Oh, and President Brady, you know his wife used to be in every Saturday morning. She'd bring us cookies down to the barbershop. Every Saturday morning. So, one day he came with her, and we were betting on Notre Dame... I told him, 'Well, I'm Catholic,' and he says, 'Well, I'm Mormon.' And he says now, 'Willie,' he says, 'BYU's playing Notre Dame tonight,' he said, 'and if Notre Dame wins, I'm going to become a Catholic, and if BYU wins you will become a Mormon.' I said, 'That's a bet.' And Danny Ainge--who is in broadcasting now--BYU was behind by one point and had five seconds to go, and Danny Ainge got the ball, and he drove all the way down and made a basket, and they beat Notre Dame by one point. Brady's office called me up the next day. His secretary says, 'Willie, President Brady has water, some nice hot water, so you can come and be baptized now.'"
