"We will always sacrifice quickness for weight," says one scout, but in the case of Farr and Jones, there is nothing to sacrifice-they both run the 100 in under 10 sec., have "the strength to break tackles" and "an eye for the goal line."

As usual, the gift volumes offered this year emphasize photographs and reproductions; and they are, on the whole, delights to the eye.
