Yesterday he played his first professional football game, which netted him about $20,000 as his share of the receipt. During tho colli ge season just ended, "Red" GrBng without doubt was the center of attraction, central, south and west.

He goes Into collcgo grid history as one of tho few really great immortals, headed by Jim Thorpe. Now that he has turned professional, the question arises haw long, In the branch of the game In which money talks and the box office manager calls the signals, will he continue to thrill the world with his playing and draw the plaudits due the great?

The game was played at Adelson Field here and finished the season for both teams. Had it not been for Ragin's defensive work, the final count might have been a little less one-sided, for it was he who tore through on repeated occasions many tines throwing the locals for losses. The locals put up a pluck light, but were outclassed by the visitors. The ball see-sawed back and forth on the field, with the Planters in possession of the ball nearly as much as were the Tigers. The Planters, however, were unable to crash through the effective line and safety men of the Tigers for a single score.

Tigers Score Early The first score of the game ram a early in the second period, when Howard, captain of the visitors, punted from mid-field, to Plant City's one-yard line, and the husky little Planter was carried across the goul line by the impact of Seth'a tackle. It didn't net but two points but started the tallies, which before the game was called, had been added to, until a total ot twenty-eight were counted. The first touchdown came In the third period when Strickland, of the visitors, anngged a punt of the Planters, in mid-field and carried the bull itown the sub lines to Plant City's nine-yard line, A line plunge, and Alleman duplicated tin play for a score.

Strickland's two runs are thought by local fans to be as pretty runs as have been seen snj-where in the state this season. Alleman kicked the goal. Pass In Klfertive The third and fourth touchdown of the game came in the fourth period.

Kailsback, sturdy little general of the Tigers, hurled a pass some twenty-live yards iro the arms of Russ, who, in turn, ran for twenty-five yards across the goal line. The last tally of the game came shortly before the final whistle, when Railsback completed a pass on the fifteen-yard line going the remaining distance for the touch-down. Both of the last two attempts for points after touchdown failed.

A I Association," turned out to be a-meek "little Red Riding Hood" yesterday afternoon, when the Bulldogs nosed out a bare 7 to 0 victory over the Rollins College on the Winter Park athletic field. Smothered in his tracks in nearly every play, the highly touted running ability of Bancroft failed to materialize. A short pass in the second quarter in which Bancroft made a perfect toss to Wilkins did provide the lone touchdown of the day. This same Bancroft booted the oval over the crossbar for the extra point, making the score 7 to 0 in favor of the Alabama representatives of the cowskin game. Tar Fight Throughout Game.

"I never played agaiiiht a more expert team of football players," said Grange after the game. "I don't remember how I got the black eye, but I never saw a bit of intentional roughness, and I enjoyed my first professional game immensely.

I did my bent but was unable to practice with the team only a few da vs." The Cardinals made every effort to keep their puiita out of Grunge's hands, hut he managed to get hold of three which he run hack for 14, 2. and .10 yards. His longest gain from the formation was but six ards and that was the next to the longest of the game for either side. He made one of the two first downs for his team.

Before a crowd of 70.000, the greatest that ever witnessed their annunl holiday classic, 1'enn-sylvania conquered Cornell today, to 0, In a spectacular battle. The Quakers outrushed nearly two to one and outplayed for the greater part of the game, won by capitalizing the only "break" in their favor, a fumble by Tilton, Cornell halfback, in the final period, which Charley Rogers, fleet 1'enn ball carrier, plucked out of the scrimmage and converted into the only touchdown of the game with a 46-yard dash. This sudden turn of fortune de- eided the game but Pennsylvania's stonewall defense within ita own ten yard line saved it, for the big red machine constantly threatening, was checked three times inside that mark, losing the bull on downs each time with a touchdown seemingly in their grasp. t'irnell gained almost twice as many yards as FennsyKania, "Uf to 117, and registered 15 first downa to nine for the Quakers, but in the final analysis it was the lack of a decisive punch when within sight of Pennsylvania's goal line that cost the Ithacans a triumph.

Two of Cornell's big drives were stopped in the final quarter after Rogers scored for Penn. A sustained march of 63 yards in which off-tackle smashes were mixed with several short passes, came to naught on the five yard mark when Penna. held for downs.
