It has been said frequently of late that that Casey isn't as yet a second Mahan. He isn't but the accents should be on the "as yet" rather than the "isn't" and dismissing the case of Natick's latest starring son in a short comparison to Natick Eddie of last season is hardly fair, for it doesn't give a fitting idea of the wonderful running, dodging and passing ability that Casey possesses. With an even break in luck, Casey should hand in more than a smattering of thrills Saturday.
Legore, on the other hand, has given evidence that he is ready to establish himself as a real Yale hero. Two years ago his brilliance was smothered by the poorness of his team. Early this season he wasn't displaying the form expected of him, but Saturday he threatened genuine sensationalism.
Had his work at carrying the ball been up to his defensive showing, it wouldn't have been a case of threatening, but he was stopped many times on the offence.
On defence, however, he was every-where, in fact so good at one stage that Haughton said in his caustic criticism after the game, that Legore executed the finest defensive play he had ever witnessed.
High praise, indeed Another instance, showing his speed and ability to size up a play, was when he appeared like a shot and smeared a forward pass that Ames was about to receive with an open field for a touchdown. There is every reason to believe he will turn himself loose in his last game for the Blue, which, as we said above, will make the Casey vs. Legore for sensations complete. Boston Traveler.
