Redmond was outplayed In every phase of the game. End runt and passe featured their attack. A few pssset were completed, though moit of them were either blocked or In tercepted. Line bucks were not at tempted In the tatter part of the game. ' Prlnevllle atempted onljr two pasas, both being Incomplete. The backfleld had on new man, Tom Jacobs, who took Cecil Brown's place as halfback, because of the latter' Inability to play a the result of an Injured leg.

Just a patch of golden sunbeam That came thru my latlced blind, But It filled my heart with gladness, And left a peace sublime. Ode To A KrJ The old policeman called, "Look out. are you blind?" I looked around to see what was be hind. I Jumped to one side so the car I would miss, . When something went 'clankety bang and ker-hlas.' ' I woke myself up in a hospital ward When I aaked what had bit me, They said, "T'wae Ford." , I then to myself gave a long and deep sigh, If 'twas only a Ford, I refuse flat to dlo.
