Most Representatives Fair"
But most Representatives and Sen.

We have distributed but 10000 tickets
to Representatives over the United

seats. This insures that the tickets
are scattered throughout the country.
I trust that we shall not be consid-

We have the name and address OF
every one receiving tickets through
us, and we have been careful not to
sell large blocks Of tickets.

with their allotments. In ordinary
times, when the game Is played In

ceived by any Representative is six

Representatives gave toward getting

Greatest HqyIEper Saw

seemed certain that we would not be
able to make more than about one
play. SO Yale figured that an at.
tempt would be made to kick field
goal, especially as l had kicked sew
eral goals that year. We brought
the ball in Is yards and l fell back
as If to make a long place-kick with
Lourie back on one knee to hold the
ball. Thus, as we were set for such
a play the Yale rush line called out
to each other to get through and
block the kick.
On his knee, I4ourie called the sig
nal, but instead of giving the number
for a kick he called his own signal
to run with the ball. I smoothed
down the ground where the ball was
to rest and took a look at the goal
posts. going through all the motions
to help fool the Yale crew. Then
got back the right distanc and the
center passed the ball 20 I.ourie.
AS the ball came back / ran up.
Of doing 40 I ran by Lourie and
blocked, the Yale right end. who was
charging through to block what he
thought was a kick.
Lourie made a bluff to put the ball
on the ground and then got up and
da shed around our left end. This
was possible since I had managed to
take the Yale right end out of the
play. Lourie lodged two men in the
Yale backfield and was never stopped
until he planted the ball behind the
goal posts for a touchdown. It was
thrilling run and as accurately
timed as any ever made on a grid
iron, in addition to being absolutely
unexpect I'd.
