~ HICAGO, September 3.-Tuffy
Leemans is certain to make
the grade in professional foot
~ ball.
Utterly disregarding his tumble,
which gave Detroit's Lions possession
of the ball on the 29-yard line pre-
ceding their touchdown and ultimate
tying of the game to with the
College All-Stars here last night, un-
biased experts chorused that Leemans
will succeed as a professional player
with the New York Giants of the
National League.
Having watched the former George
Washington University star perform
for 81 minutes, more than any other
college back in the game, qualified
critics declared Leemans to be the
best back on the field. And one needs
only consider that there were more
than Is all-America backs of 1885
and years previous to understand that
Tuffy today is one of the best backs
In America.
