Written lor The Chronicle By ROBERT FULLER Through Autocaster Service This is a story three weeks overdue. Assigned to your reporter as a possi ble interesting feature for your peru sal it fell by the wayside, the only alibi being that his judgement as to news values was governed by a like thought of some few millions of his fellow countrymen—that Mr. Grange Wheaton, 111., iceman, was not .t|»e football player the pop-eyed rooters of Illinois had been claiming he was. The evidence was in—and complete in all detail. The famous "redhead” had been smeared and smeared and smeared again in every start. “Red” Grange’s style had been solved. He was through. He was a bust, etc., etc., etc. t But “Red” Grange’s hour wis com ing. Therefore, this confession— which, we might pause to mention, is not lonesome because • every great sport authority in the big East was doffing a hat to Grunge—frankly and whole-heartedly admitting he is the greatest football player of the age. As the whole * nation now knows, Grange is Coacji Bob Zupke’s back- field ace on the University of Illinois football team. And it was at Phila delphia against the undefeated Penn team, eonquerers of Yale, that “Red” Grange was asked to dq his stuff— It was his first eastern appearance. With 60,000 rooters (mostly critics) looking on. To make a long story short, “Red” Grange was asked to carry the ball just 36 times in that hour of play. He toted it exactly 336 yards—for a nice fat average of a 10 yard gain every time the ball was handed to him. One 56 yard run and three touche downs were included in that perform ance—giving his team a 24 to 2 vic tory over the Quaker team which up to an hour before had been the favor ites to win. j . His Name Immortal , Those are -the figure facts of the gam^ which since has had the whole country talking. To tell about Grange and the football player he is, there isn’t space enough in this newspaper tc record the feats he does when he feels the pigskin tucked ’neath his elbowr and sees charging tacklers bearing down toward him. Suffice it that all now agree he has everything that any football play er ever had—and just a little bit more. That his place on the 1925 all-American is assured, goes without saying. This is Grange’s last year at Illi nois. He is without doubt the great est football player the middle West has ever developed. His triumph in the East was a fitting reward. His has not Leen a path of roses in his climb to fame. Perhaps no player has ever been called upon to do more nor has ever faced a more desperate at tack than has “Red” Grange in his last drive to gridiron, immortality. It must be remembered that Grange has been stopped only three times and always it took virtually eleven men to do it. By that, the writer means, that the entire opposing team was out from the first whistle of the game “to stop Grange”—“to get Grange” at all cost. Michigan did it first last year. Nebraska and Iowa this year— and that is all. Turn to the other side of the ledger and we find how really great he is. We find that the recent Penn game was but a consistent performance with all of his throe yean &t lUinois Unbelievable as it may seem his record shows that he has the grand average of a 10 yard gain every time given the ball. Not for one game. Not for one season—>but for his entire college football career. ’ f Fast of Brain and Foot Grange’s style is speed, a change of pace and a football intuition that | Labelled “Grcatett” t OPEN MEETING NEXT MONDAY ^ jj Members of Woodrow Wilson Literary Society Arrange Interesting Meet- v ing For the PnMic,' The first 'open meeting of the Wood- row Wilson Literary Society will be held Monday evening, November 16, at 7:30, in the Academy Street school (.uditorium.

Debate: “Resolved, That immigra tion in the United States should be further restricted.” Affirmative: Mar garet Copeland and Lydie Davis; negative: lilac Adair and Isabel With erspoon. Decision of judges. Harold “Red” Grange, Illinois’ great football star, lived up to all that had eveT> been written about him, in his .irfet eastern football apnearance. Every gridiron au thority who saw him in action de clared him. to be "the greatest backfield star of the age.” Total is uncanny. He seems to invite tack lers in close to him and then depends upon out-thinking them. A turn—a twfist—a mere slight pulling of the hips and he is racing on to out-; think—out-step and be free of the next tackier. So he races on through a field of desperate opponents—and ic isn’t until minutes later that one realizes what a really great perform ance he has witnessed. The seeming ease—the grace—the exact timing of every move leaves one in open- mouthed wonderment. Off the football field Grange is a quiet, unassuming American youth, seldom talking football, always agree able and hardly willing to admit that he can understand why gridiron fans i No. 2 consider his play so remarkable. He does admit that he wanted to “show” the East that the Western game was just as good as that played i<i the East. Well—we will tell the cock-eyed world that his wish was gratified.
