The untiring work of Paul LaHar is a source of wonderment to the fans. He starts out like Nurmi and finishes just the same. Paul not only plays good game. but he plays a fast game. He covers about three times as much ground as the aver age player. Not that this is neces- sary or at all times beneficial, but admittedly it does speed up the game. Paul runs around and around yet seemingly never tires. He's as fresh at the end as when he started.
