Of the Soldiers, Paul Turner, last
year’s captain, was, as expected, the
big gem. One the offense he gouged
big chunk* of land from Howard’s;

ference were excellent. Samuels, half,
was probably even up with Turner
on ground gaining, being in the game
longer. The entire Marlon fine showed
all kinds of drive on the offensive,
shoving their heavier opponents aside
frequently. Captain Gudge made
some pretty runs around the oppoaKe
