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

OPEN MEETING

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. The following program
will be carried out:
Music—vocal solo, by Grace League*

Ruth Carter; “Absentmindedness of
?riscilla”, Florence Bailey; “Gradua
tion at the High School”, Kate Robin
son.
Music—“Seranadr”—F. Paolo Tosti.
Declamations: “The Skeleton in Ar
mor”, John William Dillard; “Grand
mother’s Story of the Battls of Bun
ker HiU”, Edwin Yarborough > “The
Evils of War”, T. J. Blalock.
Music—violin solo, by Lilia Sayers.
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.
