Bill won't study at Mercer next Fall, but e will return Lake's favor by teaching his foot ball players something of footwork and the straight arm. “Stribling’s left jab” says Russell in a soft Southern drawl, “is just about the finest thing in the way of a straight arm that could be taught halfbacks and defensive linemen. He's promised me he'll come over and show the boys something about footw: too, keeping the weight properly balanced® so you These two things, Russell believes, are the most important foot ball and prize fighting have in common.
