...Aldrich of Leverett is one of the most outstanding ends to play in the House league for a long time. In game after game he caught passes and hit hard on tackles to jar opposing ball carriers into costly fumbles or smear them behind the line of scrimmage.

One cartoon showed him with a dishonorable discharge (1933) in his pocket, squatting under an umbrella in the halls of Congress; the heading said: "Tenting on the old Camp Ground!" (see cut, p. 23).

Then momentum and wind drift whipped them in toward the transports like a fast curve breaking over the plate...
...this, but at the concrete bastion there had not yet been a sound. Then came the concussion. Even a mile away behind walls of concrete, there was a jerk, a jar and the observers felt as if Paul Bunyan had slapped them on the back...
