records show that Erie won all OF
its eleven games, by virtue of
which it was able to claim and re
ceive the championship of north
western Pennsylvania and western
New York, including Buffalo and
surrounding cities. Bush played at
quarter in every game and was
one OF the leading performers on
his team.
