Two hours later, the people in the apartment upstairs started a party.-. Three hours later, the festivities weakened the ceiling so badly the piano fell through it and pinned MacClamrock to the bed.

He set up one touchdown with a beautiful punt return, caught one of Travis TidweH's 20 passes, and did his usually brilliant pnnting Job. But what impressed Blue most was Justice's work on defense. Choo Choo blocked and tackled like a 300-pound guard and once hit' a Yankee ball-carrier so hard that the thud could be heard all over the huge stadium. Blue called Charlie, who made his Ail-American ratings on his of fensive performances, one of the game's defensive stars. He also had -a highly respectful report on the work of Weiner, the great Tar Heel end. Weiner, who tied the intercol legiate pass-catching mark last sea son, made catches that were only a shade short of miraculous, says this observer. He was surrounded by three Yankees close to the side lines on one occasion when he snatched one of Tide well's tosses for a 16-yard gain. Referring to Weiner and O'Quinn, , the red-headed Demon who Set the nation's pace season before last in yards gained catch ing passes, Blue summerized their performances in this way: "They were catching them at their shoe strings, over their shoudlers, and at their hips. They were catching them( every way 'except by using mirrors."
