Description

The football players at the Masonic Home and School study subjects other than gridiron strategy. They learn to make a living even if they never get a bid from the professional leagues. Curtis Robbins, who plays center for the Masons is shown operating a linotype machine. He will specialize at the linotype next-term. The seventeen year old senior shot up to 154 pounds, a heavy guy for the Masons, and made the starting lineup. Though Curtis will graduate with a trade, he hopes to attend college. He is wearing a collared shirt, sweater, and trousers.
