Dut our serious Mr. Callison did
not explain how ' a team 'with la

four touchdowns against the Uni

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
