for all he was worth and 1t was

The same thing will be done

There is nothing criminal about

Once before, there was merry
hubbub about the menace OF the
pro game, and its wise promoters
met it by passing rules that for
bade their teams to dicker with
men. who were playing college
football.
They, however, said nothing at
all about dealing with players who
have finished with the college
game, and they will continue 70
say lt with great fluency.
AS a matter Of fact, the whole
matter is a whirlwind in a wash
basin, to unquote popular quota

fessional football ever again will
face a state of affairs that sends it
well into February with it's season.
For one thing, another Grange
situation is impossible. at least for
years to come. For another, Florida
real estate men probably will cease
to interest themselves in the sign
ing of college stars for advertising
purposes.
The professional season, there

with the college campaign, and Dy
the time another starts, the college
star will have graduated, and. in
consequence, will be free to compCrt

German, his chubby cheeks obscured

to was the beginning of the end Of

In common with scattered groups

family and followers sat up Friday
night waiting for. the fireworks to
start. Nothing happened.
