On the first, he cut inside and then broke into the clear for 11 yards to the 36, and then, with a wave of interference remisicent of Dick Kazmaier and his portable Goliaths, turned the right for a first down on the 26. A Gianelly buck produced three yards, but Cowles was stopped at the line on an inside reverse.

By using the mails and punchboards to peddle such merchandise as ballpoint pens, coonskin caps and cheap radios, Stolkin ran a $15,000 loan into a $3,400,000 fortune. After the Federal Trade Commission cracked down on him for "deceptive sales practices" and U.S. postal authorities warned him against conducting a lottery by mail, Punchboard King Stolkin headed for Hollywood. He took charge of a five-man syndicate that bought RKO from Howard Hughes and named himself president...
