...Halfback John Blood, whose service record of 13 years is the longest in the League, whose size (6 ft., 190 Ib.) is pygmy compared to a team averaging 20 Ib. more, and whose orangutan arms make him equally dreaded as a pass catcher and a tackler; End Don Hutson, whose 34 catches this season broke the League record; Arnold ("Flash") Herber, whose accuracy has enabled him to throw completed passes totaling 1,225 yards, which is not only a record individual total but more than the total gained by any other team in the League this year. Last week...

Such was the law about which the citizens of West Amwell Township complained. To enforce it Mr. Hutson was to have had an initial appropriation of $5,000,000, no great sum in view of the fact that the number of potential potato leggers far exceeds the number of potential liquor leggers under Prohibition. But as a further handicap the appropriation for enforcement failed of enactment with the Third Deficiency Bill. One private consolation Mr. Hutson had: the Supreme Court would probably declare Potato Control unconstitutional since the whole scheme depends on a confiscatory "tax" which makes no pretense...
