Show Glint Frank Reaches End Of Grid Trail Saturday NEW HAVEN, Conn, Nov. 19 (INS) A great player will reach the end of the football trail tomor- row when Clinton E. Frank, sometimes some-times known as the Evanston Express, Ex-press, but alwaya known as "one grand guy," leavea the field of play in Yale's climax game with Harvard Har-vard at Cambridge. Cam-bridge. Mass. Although athletic ath-letic fame ia a fleeting thing, there teems to be a certainty that the name of Clint road supplies, but he doesn't exactly like that.

This all America halfback, who plays nothing elst in organized competition, com-petition, likes the gridiron game. But he haa a firm belief that it belongs be-longs to college life and for that reaaon he has no intention of capitalising capi-talising on his prowess when his college playing days are over.
