How do I get my root id to run .login?

I have a signon on our 4.2BSD system (the same problem happened in our
old 4.1) whose userid is 0 (the root).  csh is my login shell.  WHY
won't csh source my .login file?  HOW can I get it to?  For six months
now, every time I sign on, I have to type:
  source .login
and this is a pain in the neck!

frustratingly,
