Speaking of *last* ^Sunday's game, when we saw Kirby Tupper take the ball from about 20 feel in front of his own goal and rap it down the fleld and over the Town goal., all we could think of was Johhny Butler taking a kickofT on his 5 and racing down the fleld for a' touchdown. ?- ? In that same chukker, Harrison demonstrated why he rates 6 goals when he took the ball over near the left side and some 20 feet out from the south boundary and actually teased and coddled it through the entire Country defensive formation to a position on front of the goal posts and then poked it into pay dirt. . , In the fourth that brawny son of the western plains out In the Sooner state.
