Tryon Thrills Spectators

a stsekle. much as Tommy Dawes used
IA DO while at Pittsburgh. II
prt the play that the Maroon used
"a greatest advantage was screen

finosd straight across the field unit ] he
reached the end Of the ecrimmhge line'

vas something like thirty yards.
There was no stopping this lad. He |

S.opted running when he felt enemy
lands grasp'nr at bis thighs. he only
fsn harder then. Bringing him 20
sanh was like stopping an enraged
,5sl with a red flag.
Mason and Morgan Also Star
p. Mason and Morgan showed flashes Of
sne running also, but Tryon was the
sprln,ing hero Of the day. He won all

tke field In line plunging. II was a
great day Of sprinting for the Colgate
Jack
Ws'shs reputation had preceded !
lin to South Field and he lived up to |
al Of the nice things said about him. |
~ had been said that the center trio |
u the Colgate line-Traynor, captain. |
Rathbone and Welsh-was a knock |
out and that's quite right. But none |
on that line compares 70 Welsh, who is
me outstanding guard If number Of |
good ores the writer has seen thie
season.
He slsshed through the opponents |
line as II Il we're paper, mailing the |
runner In his tracks time and again. !
ne was a bear on defense and a
osttering ram Of offense. Welsh
also did some fancy goal kick
ing. He kicked FIVE goals after touch
Gowns and two p acement goals from
neid from about his own thirty-seyen-
gard line. Right valuable man Is
welsh and In line for an all-American
berth II anybody Is.
Powerful and deceptive as Colgate's
tiask was, Il is better than Cornell's
seeause Of It's deception. Il might
