JUDGE Graham McNamee Plays Quarterback “Wwe gang, I guess we'd better try a forward pass.—No, I for- th down and eleven to snot right. Yes it is. No—Yes—Well, 1 guess we'd better not try a forward pass, We'll have Borowsky punt—I mean Hemmelfin- yer—I mean Saltonstal. Oh, boy, look at those mountains off there! Isn't that some scenery? Oh, baby —! ch! teh! We seem to have been penalized five yards for offside. No, it couldn't be for offside; it must have been for holding. —No, it couldn't be that. I guess it was for taking too much time. I was confused there for a moment. Ha! Ha! Well, let's get ng. That makes it first down in, and I guess we'd better try an end—no, wait a minute. It's third down, three to go, and we'll bang the centre of the line-—Just a minute, boys; I Was wrong on that. It’s still fourth down, so we'll punt. Wait a Ox tooxer—Stop, boys—stop! second now “Gosh, ye ain't much of a fight fan, are ye, mister?” “Well, well, the referee seems to have penalized us another five yards. That puts us back on our cightcen- I mean our twenty-three—our thir- teen-yard line, and we've something like three minutes to tie the score be- fore the half—I mean the game— ends. Look that crowd in the nds! Isn't that a riot of color for I'll bet there are eighty thou- sand people there, half of them root- ing for old Harvard—no, California. Now, then “Goodness, another penalty! Maybe we ought to run this play off. We're back on our eight-yard line, and I'm going to shoot a long pass to the left guard. Uh, uh. I forgot. Guards aren't eligible to receive passes. Ful- ler, you try a drop-kick now—no, we're too far over on the side for a drop-kick. The thing for us to do- “What do you know about ths We've been penalized practically back to our goal line! Say, that right tackle has been playing a whale of a game, hasn't he? What a player that boy is! Now then—what? The game is over? And we've won.—No, w minute, we lost. Yes, that’s right, fel- lows, we lost!" —Parkxe Cumsinos comicbooks.com
