' 1 1 Gridsters Gobble Up Hamper Of Hen-Fruit (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) After 34 orders, Tom Craig stretched imt his mighty frame and drew in his lower regions to show the other boys that there was still plenty of room left. Hunter gazed over vhat way but was unmoved by the man mountain's actions. Here, Hunter removed his shirt and let out his belt a notch. Paul GalTnev, who had been silent since he withdrew from the race, came back to the table where the four were .eating, and said: "If anybody ever shows me an c>;g for breakfast again, HI shoot him." The contest went on. More and more eggs were brought out. Arbie Johnson, whose arm lias been in a sling for some time, began to wonder why he had entered this endurance contest. He managed to get down 40, but called it off when Hunter ordered six more. This left only three men in the race? Tom Craig, Walker Hunter and Joe Claffy, all of whom seemed to be tiring a bit of eggs. Had they something else to eat, perhaps the food would have tasted a little better to them, but they were eating eggs and eggs alone. Hunter smacked his lips after downIts New and Different!

This left only two men in the rac( ?Hunter and Craig. Craig rose agair and pulled in his lower regions. Hunter was unmoved. The 100-odd spectators stood open-mouthed, like so many donkies eating cactus, and wondered how in the world any two persons could down so many pounds. More eggs were eaten, which ran the total up to 50 apiece. Hunter let out his belt another notch and prepared to make a night of it. "Bring me six more, over light," yelled Craig to the cook. "I'll take four over light, and two just any way you want to cook them," hollered Hunter. lor many a year the man-mountain had won almost anything he wanted to, but now it looked as though he had met his match. Hunter was determined to win and so was Craig. Hunter downed four more, and Craig did likewise, but when the next ovals were set before Craig, he reniged, thu>> forfeiting the honors to Hunter. Asked if fifty-live eggs would be enough for his supper, Hunter responded : "Well, 1 guess 1 can make out for the night, but 1 II be over for an early breaklast." Boyd Hughes was about nuts by this time, lie figured that four and a half dozen eggs were enough for any ten people, but surely enough this young man had devoured more eggs than an ordinary incubator can hold. "I'll never hold another egg-eating contest as long as I live," lie said, as Hunter walked back to the kitchen in search ot a little something to tide him over until morning. I lie linal score of tlu- contest was as toll.iws: Hunter, 55 eggs. Craig, 54 eggs. C laffy, 48 eggs. A. Johnson, 40 eggs. Alexander, 25 eggs. < laltney, 25 eggs. B. Johnson, 25 eggs. U. I. o.?
