...University of Washington, clinching its claim to the Pacific Coast Conference championship, roll up its biggest score in 34 games (40-10-0) against Washington State. First two touchdowns and the last were made by Sophomore Fullback Albert Cruver. One each went to Byron Haines and Jim Cain, spark-plugs of the Washington backfield since the season's start. Another touchdown rewarded one of the year's trickiest plays-a lateral from Nowogroski to Cain, who forwarded to Dick Johnson.

He loses the fight, earns another crack at the title, wins it. When neither he nor Mabel proves a box-office draw, a press agent gives them glamor by a fake romance. This evokes wearisome bickering, which suddenly ends when hungry Cain surprises Mabel cooking a pork chop. They take to meeting surreptitiously in the public library, kissing behind a book on ichthyology...
