Harold (Red) Grange. former
Wheaton, H., iceman, is certainly
finding II tough going these days in
professional football. It's the same
old story. A shining star being
burned out because he has attracted
the attention Of the sports world.
There Isn't a man alive who can
play In professional football every
day in the week and keep fit. Grange
Is no exception We are positive
that he is a wonder as a football
player, but We are just as positive
that his energy Is being burned out
too much. He appears to be stale.
He needs rest and anyone who has
ever witnessed professional football
and the licking a man takes from
the opposing side, knows that any
player becomes burned out II he
doesn't get a rest in between games
We do not, as some think, believe
that Grange is a bust. Neither do
we consider him super man when
it comes to strength and we certain
ly don't admire the crowds who take
out their own disappointment on
him alone.
1t appears highly probable that
there is something rotten in Den
mark" with regard 10 Oranges team.
II seems strange that he can lose SO
much yardage on his runs. Unless.
and this is the big If, his team
mates are not giving him the play
he ought to get. There might be
something in this, because if his line
held as 1t should, there would be
no call for Grange to lose "a or less
yards in any single game.
OF course. the answer to this will
be that Grange is getting the money.
We are glad OF it, If he didn't go
out and capitalize his fame as
football player this year with all the
fancy money being offered to him,
he should have had his head exam

He conversed with her in low
tones for about fifteen minutes.
