YOnamine Scores Twice in Practice;
ROmpS SO Yard on Return of Punt

Albert's 26-yard pass for the Reds
third score was also a beauty.
Starting from his right half posi-
ton, Wally drifted left as the man
in motion, went straight down the
sidelines into the end zone, cut
sharply to the right behind three
White pass defenders, out maneu-
vered them all and caught the ball
to the left of the goal posts.
This should be enough FOR any
one playing his first pro game, but
Wally also:
Caught three more Albert pass
es for a. Il, and 10 yards.
Intercepted toss by Wallace.
Knocked down two touchdown
passes.
Made 20 yards in eight carries.
Playing more than half the game,
Wally also made his share of tack
les on defense.
He fumbled once and lost the
ball, but what's one miscue after
all that.
400 Nisei Fans
About 400 Nisei were in the
crowd of $500 at the game, in
