Coach Parry kept him on the squad
No one knew why. doubt If even
Parry knew. Yet even then, Johnny
was making an impression on the sub
conscious mind OF the coach and Of
the rest Of u.s. too. None of us would
have admitted it.
Johnny was still with us after the
FIRST game. More, he played in the
first game. That wasn't hard to ex-
plain, because before the first half was
over we had run up score that made
Paxton look like a high school team,
and Parry began showing in subs.
At any rate, it was after the first
game that began noticing Johnny
and wondering about him. I wanted
to find out things without asking
Coach Parry. Curiously, I felt that
Parry might be embarrassed. Parry

I'd drawn some conclusions after the
Fayette game. Johnny played in that

beautiful tackles. 1t was incongruous

might have explained why Parry
didn't drop him, but it wasn't all Of
the explanation. There was some
thing more behind it that I didn't
understand. wanted to and out.
The boys didn't give him much
credit. He seemed so unimportant and
insignificant. 1t didn't seem logical
to connect Johnny Quinn with bril-

pearance wasn't in keeping with the
stuff Of which football heroes are
