 "Old Grad" As Game NeaTS

boil and then burst into cloud of steam which the customers haven't seen in that park this year. Those Wilby boys and girls in the cheering section did mighty proud of themselves in lending their vocal support to the boys and just be: tween you and me -- they deserved every bit of 1t. was talking to Coach Lee early in the game and he explained the strategy he was using so I didn't do any worrying about the first half not 6 gosh dern bit bi gosh-Old Clen Gut. patches and myself sat in c corner and kind of laughed Up our sleeves at the Leavenworth boosters, for we knew what was a-coming. And boy did she blow when those kids got their orders in between the rooster for the "Bluebells" -- the halves. I was Q wishing that star "Old Grad" was around to see those kids - but they told me he had left
 the city earlier in the day to take q peek at Larry Kelly and Clint Frank, down ct the Yale Bowl. Well, say, those fellows are good, too, but jumping Bullfrogs, you should see those little fellows Crowe--Devino and Fahy, tossing that brown pumpkin around. l just felt that Clem and I were back again ct the Shifting Pictures" watching that "Pigskin Parade.
 Well. John. you know always keep pretty good tabs on the Wild- cat lads and know you are anx- ious to hear just what I think of them for the big tussle Thursday. Old Lem" Shout was a-saying out at the Grange the other night that he was looking for e Wilby landslide this year from the way the boys have been perking up. "Josh" Pumpernickle sort of feels that young fellow Devino can lick the "Biuebells" alone. And "Sid" Corn. tassel just feels that the Crosby boys are a week in and a week out team and e wee bit over-cori- fident.
 Grove c Star
 Between you and me - I amt growing much about them because there is c fellow on that team who A all Grove" himself and from the looks of things the past few weeks
 this bird Is c rare species In himself the kind of bird that fits from goal-post to goal-post in . periect take-off and even better landing The way that kid scroops up the ball and slides for that goal line would do your old heart good every time you saw him. There's Q fellow
 there they call "Malario", but I'll take Q dose of Hoof and Mouth Serum if that fellow has Malaria. Yippee .- when that kid gets his klaxon working and his springy arms and legs they better look out
 if there is anyone standing m his
 way. He sure has lot of that sand
 which Is necessary in g steady and
 heady player. The boys on the line are 6 real good lot, too, from the way they opened Up the holes
 for the backs in the last few games.
 Each man seems to know just where to plant his carcass at the right
 time and the result is you see plenty
 of fellows laying horizontal on the
 ground just like they were moved
 down with Q Hay Catcher. All in all, If you ask my candy opinion - I'm not worrying the least bit about that ten cent bet made with Cas- par Hotstuff. Not on your life. bi
 gosh. Iii fact, I'm pretty sure, l can use that money to buy me two packages of Mrs. Millers to burn in that new corn cob I won on MT. Garener. Gosh, I get sore at my
 self, everytime I think how easy I
 could have taken Sid and Lem for
 q quarter piece on that election. | Those fellows were real reckless
 with their money this year and were
 all for going as high as a quarter on the whole Republican Ticket. That's another reason why ! am playing 6 hunch this time on the | wildcats. Just said to VI last night
 this sure has been lucky year | for me and if I had little more nerve with me I could have got enuff to buy her a new hat. The
 old girl hasn't had a new bonnet
 since the last Roosevelt was in.
 Well, that's neither here nor there with the athletic situation, but just | thought I would give you the inc side informatin on how reckless those boys out Prospect were this year. And not a bit of hard cider in their dummies either. To tell the truth we ain't had any since Prohibition. The city fellers got to liking it SO much they bought up all we had and you know us--we like our cider but we like the money | smAAm. mAm sfess rsJasswaf1nw
