Brilliant Routine Shows Promise

(By "First Quarter")

While watching the local ex- ponents of the American code of football at practice at King's Park on Saturday, I noticed.' plenty of changes in the original line-up.

Big Ed Lee, green at the game, but heavy and strong, was shifted from tackle to the hackfield on all punt formation plays, and no wonder! He certainly impressed me as being the answer to a coach's prayer. That boy punts the ball 40 and 60 yards every time.

Upon enquiries 1 discovered that Lee was accidentally dia- covered on the previous day, and the local boys are worked up over their find! Thoir warm welcome to this hefty.kicker can be under- stood when it is realised that records from the game a week ago against Lingaan University show that the average length of punts for the HK. "brain" was only 28 yarda.
