...occasional failure to break up the interference which carried Hare around his end Sawin was another player who attracted attention by brilliant work. He followed his interference as far as was practicable and seemed to know just when it was advisable to leave it. His running was fast and heady, and made him the greatest ground gainer of the day.

Besides this he did some...
