...paid off the debt of his first day's board and food. His lesson was a stern one, but it was worth while. He learned what it meant to fight out his own fight alone and to pay for his own mistakes.

The ends fail to show expected progress under rigorous coaching and the tackles give evidence of discouraging weakness in their defensive play. In the centre of the line the situation, as has been the case...
