Quarterback on his team. but played
virtually the halfback position. He
has the most peculiar elusiveness OF
any back on the geld this year. and
that, too, when apparently about to
be stopped. Kiilnger has accom-

gets the other haifback position by
a considerable margain. as man
who combines high will power with

Elliott saw several colors at once.
They were reflected on his face.

dazedly.

Next day when he visited the court

time she had succeeded in getting her
marriage license. With her was

of Los Angeles, who Elliott soon dis
covered, was the bridegroom for whom
he had been asked to 'pinch-hit."
