il is probable that his play stood out
the more prominently because Of the
advance notices given his predeces-
sor. The manner in which McCullogh
STOPPED everything coming toward
him was in such marked contrast TO
this that it was decidedly noteworthy.
Truck Huunuh was not only the
star for the winner but WnG the
real star OF the day. And this in
spite Of the fact thut he had three
rfba broken about the middle Of
the second quarter. REGARDLESS
Of his injury Truck went through
the opposing line tearing great
holes for his hackfleld to work
through, just a. he had before HIS
injury And Il was largely the
openings which Truck made
which allowed the Seventh TO pile
mp three touch downs
The game was g hard fought one
and one Of the best this season, in
spite Of the decisive victory OF the
Seventh There was only one point
TO mar an otherwise almost perfect
game. That was the almost constant
Grabbing Of one OF the terriers. As
the PLAYER in question has done some
Officiating. his frequent objections 20
decisions were the less eIcusable.

A penalty put 10 back to the 20-yard

back 70 the baclZfield and took the

after he crossed the line.
