This sea- /son he has shown enough improve- | ment to deserve rating as a foot-| gall genius. | ‘There isn't a phase of the game at! which he is not proficient. A great' passer, he is just as effective at carrying the ball. He has drive In a broken field he is elusive and hard to stop. His| /190 pounds are spread over a solid {frame. He has speed. 1 He runs the team on the offense! and defense. Few men are more adept at diagnosing plays and fer-| jreting out weak spots in an op- ponent’s armor. A deadly tackler, Frank seems to sense the plays and; {manages to be or the spot in time, {to break them up, At the de- spised. task of blocking, he is thor-| ough and effective. ! Last fall, when Larry Kelley was: riding to fame on the touchdown| passes he caught in spectacular, fashion, Frank went along doing his chores without fanfare. Those| who felt that Kelley was making| him look good must by now be! convinced that it was Frank, and| his soft, floating pitches, that paved the way for the success Loguacious| {an Mr. Sutherland Ceremony Performed Last Evening at Bride's Home Dressed in a gown of white satin, distinguished by an over-dress of tulle and a long train, Miss Eleanor Gruber became the bride of Mr. Roderick Sutherland yesterday, at 8 o'clock-in-the-evening-cere- mony performed at the L.

FRIENDS REUNITED BY FALL DOWN WELL Taking a short-cut across an aban- | | doned farm, near Naughton, Can-! |ade, recently, David Morrison fell into a well. He was unhurt but couldn’t climb out. Morrison hadn't been in the well an hour before his old friend, J. Brooks, dropped in. Brooks had taken the same short- cut and suffered the same fate. It iwas the first meeting of the two men in more than a year. To get out of the well, Morrison climbed on Brook’s shoulders, got a rope, and pulled his friend up. — QUIET AT HOSPITAL Today was a quiet day at St Ann’s Hospital.
