Parsons had propounded too much politics and social uplift, not enough mysticism, he said. What the workingman needed was an awareness of God.

Kuehn justified his assignment at right tackle and Talbot again proved that he is still to be considered for a first team guard berth. His tackle of Bethea on the kickoff opening the second half was one of the cleanest and fiercest seen in the Stadium this year. The line as a whole clicked much better than it did against the Big Green, bad tackling being its only weakness...
