St. Louis All-Stars - Jack Gray

Jack Gray

After the All-Stars second game with the Packers, Ollie Kraehe traded Jack "Dolly" Gray who was reportedly a former all-American end from Princeton for cash to Curly Lambeau and the Packers. It appeared as if Kraehe gave away one of his best players. However, this Dolly Gray was an impostor who had never played at Princeton. Lambeau discovered this after watching his new end perform so badly the next game that he addressed Kraehe on the matter. Kraehe told Lambeau that trading away the impostor was meant as a "joke" and that he would return the money paid for Gray to Lambeau.

    One way to do it might be by making the scenery penetrate the automobile. A polished black sedan was a good subject, especially if parked at the intersection of a tree-bordered street and one of those heavyish spring skies whose bloated gray clouds and amoeba-shaped blotches of blue seem more physical than the reticent elms and effusive pavement. Now break the body of the car into separate curves and panels; then put it together in terms of reflections.
    Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)
