ed one more good end, and 10! Otto
appeared and we rejoiCed. He is I
deadly tackler, and knows the trick
of deceiving an approaching interior

work and plays the game all the
time. Again and again during the
season, when his team has punted, he
has downed the receiver in his
tracks. We have not seen a better
