The Boston Herald says that Grange's _disappointing showing in that city Wednesday can be attributed to dissension among the players of his own team, apparently jealous over the fame that has come to their team mate. And George Ade remarked in Wash ington that Red’'s accomplishments in recent games vindicate college foot | ball as against professionalism. Ade asserted that “Grange's disappointing performances as a professional are turning the public against that va-| riety of foot ball rapidly. Impatient promoters are klilling the goose that lays the golden egg.'” Writers Are Blamed. MILWAUKEE, Wis., December 11| (P).—Newspaper stories, cumulative and shiftless and blinded by hero wor- | ship, “made” “Red" Grange, Marvin H. Creager, managing editor of the Milwaukee Journal. declared in an ad- dress delivgred before the Wisconsin Intercollegiate Press Association con vention. ““The public has been fed on the diet of this gridiron superman until hey are satisfied with nothing else. No one can blame Grange for it," the editor declared. The tendency of reporting is too often toward plaving to the public weakness for hero worship and &u perlatives in general “For three vears the scores of hard- working, faithful pluggers on the Il nois squad have been used stmply as foils for the Wheaton fceman.” Creager stressed the importance of reporters writing things as they are. | No newspaper, he said. can be better .| than_its reporters, and those must lergradusité | know the public and make lavish use @Bk st North Caroling und after |of shoe leather in getting thelr news. v and Sehool of Megielge: - DUurnE | Red Is Fegjug Better.
