And that was Jingles day. That memorable day, when a blue jerseyed Hash shot down a broken Held to victory, placed Georgetown and VX'erts in front of the sporting world, but the class didn't need that. they knew the tall, curly-haired athlete, who blushed on the slighest provocation, and was noticeable for his very reticence, but who changed on the field to a wild-cat center and a Heet-footed sprinter.
