STRONG PRAISE
 FUR PULLEN

The New York Herald speaks in unqualified terms of praise of skag- ways West Point cadet in its glow, ing description of the Army-Nayy foot ball game-speaks of him as it does of no other member of the team and credits him with having been the nan of the hour It says:
 In the Army eleven stood one man whose red shock Of hair shouc out like the plume of a knight of mediac- val days. In the thick of every scrimmage this tawny tousled top gleamed in the sun like a beacon. This was the bulwark of the Army Pullen. a cadet from far off Alaska. He was the one man who could be depended upon to do almost the i'm possible. so there was no surprise when it was seen that the attack by Dean for those last few feet was aim. at the station over which he stood guard.
 Surge Icaped after surge as the waves break against rock bound coast and it seemed as though the Navy would beat off the pounding heayies. Finally. however. one melee of tangled bodies was pried apart. and the Navy lay engultci beneath the eddying flood. The ball had gone only an inch over the line right through Captain Northcroft, where Pullen had tossed him aside with his almost superhuman power. Creole had an easy chance for goal, and De fore the crowd had fairly settled in it's seats the score was to for tho Army.
 "Undaunted by the quick shift that

 Creole tried to keep the ball out of the danger zone. but Lange's re. markable ability to dodge back nulli- fled much of the advantage gained by his good toe. Once he slipped back thirty yards to the Army's 50-yard mark, and right there it began to look blue for the soldier brigade. Clay was sent over to Punen's side of the line and the big Alaskan stood him on his head so hard that he dropped the ball. Philoon recovered it and saved the day for the time at least,
