all the A. & VI. fellows last season
when he took the football squad in +
me middle of bad start and won
every game except one. and that was !
0 to tie. He played this year on !
the Dallas baseball team and was one |
of the pennant winners to divide the |

Moran. injecting worlds of ginger into
the players, notices every error and |
Keeps up a line of talk that sounds /
like real football and not ping-pong.
