...There wasn't much doubt about which was the better team Saturday. Boston College showed a line which stopped everything the Crusaders could put on. Downes, a burly Sophomore center put on an exhibition of versatile and effective play such as has rarely been seen, and Murphy and Dixon proved themselves one of the best pair of ends in the whole country. The former looked like all-American timber with his bruising tackling and omnipresence, while it was only the mighty kicks of the latter that kept the Worcester boys at bay so successfully.

Now these--two boys seem to think that if I would...
...back to the New England benders. There were a lot of them last night all right, and of course I wasn't idle. That is to say I was very busy predicting, and if you are smart you will be able to bet safely on this somewhat Delphic statement: "A wooden booth is the key to success.
