Show The DESERET SAMPLER, Fri., Nov. 7, 1969 Donnelly, Vanderboegh Lead Mustangs to Homecoming Win SPORTS Run, Browns, Run Thats What I Said! One of the most impressive traditions that lias lieen established by the National Football League since its inception has been the Cleveland Browns habit of developing running hacks that become legends in their own time. Consider the that have made their homes in the Cleveland offensive liackfield since the Brown's beginthe ning in 1946: Marion Motley, Jim Brown, Leroy Kelly list gives one the impression that he is reading the Football Friends by simple definition the deer hunter is an ASSASSIN. Doer are frightened and helpless creatures who mind their own business. They aren't carnivorous or anything, so what is the point to this deer season business? it's sport you say man I hate to count the times Ive beard someone around' here tell me that. Really though, what sport is it to track down a defenseless animal? These hunters are something! I have even seen them in Johnson Pass just sitting their waiting for a deer to come by. Some contest that is! IIow lwll-carrie- rs llall-of-Fa- roster. It all actually began before ' 1946; in fact, you have to go back to the late 30's if you really want to start from scratch. Paul Brown, the man who organized the Browns during World War II, was, at the time, coaching the Massillon, Ohio Tigers." Massillon was the top high school team in the country at the time, and Brown was on the verge of moving up the coaching ladder to Ohio State. However, in one of his last games as head mentor at Massillon, a full back from an apposing team caught Paul Browns eve: his name was Marion Motley, he stood about 6' 2 and weighed 240 pounds and he ran over would-b- e tacklers! This Brown-Motle- y association was renewed during World War II when Brown observed Motley lwwling over defenders for a Navy service team. Shortly after this last confrontation, Brown persuaded Motley to become a Cleveland Brown. From 19 Wi through 1953, Motley terrorized the Pm Fixithall League defenses. Coach Browu told Motley to run over people, not around them, and this is exactly what Marion did. Fmilliall fanatics from the area still talk about the meetings lctweeu full back Motley of the Bucko Kilroy of the Browns and rough, tough linclKicker ia Philadelphia Eagles: the action when these two met resembled the proverbial irresistible force against immovable object type of battle. During the eight years that Motley ran for the Browns, Cleveland captured the title five times. Cleveland did During the time period from not have a superstar in the backfield, but the Browns did have a couple of gixxl runners in Dick Bassett at halfback and Dick Modulcski at fullback. This running liuck combination couldn't have been all bad, liecausc Cleveland won two titles in this three year interim period. In 1957, the legendary running back relumed to the Cleveland backfield, this time in the person of Jim Brown.
