' '' Dut our serious Mr. Callison did not explain how ' a team 'with la weak backfleld .was able to run up four touchdowns against the Uni versity of Washington freshmen, of which one was called hack for off side; . how that same weak team was able to run up 27 polnts: In one quarter i against the Centralis Junior . college, which only 'two weeks before held the Washington freshmen to a single touchdown; and how the Webfoot babes hap pened to have completely put the super-vnrslty t.o, route under an ava lanche of touchdowns to heat them, 19 to 14, which,.' as far as history goes, Is . the .first time that . the freshmen have ever beaten the su per-varsity In .a gome.
