Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Caption text says "This unusual football picture was taken in the first game of the University of Chicago grid season, the Maroons beating the Michigan Aggies 34-0. The photo shows Bill Zorn, Stagg's plunging full back, with an opponent hanging to one foot. The Michigan boy tackled Zorn so hard that the force threw both into the air, and the photographer caught them before they hit the ground. To the extreme right can be seen [Elmer] Lampe, Maroon end, sprawling on the ground, while to Zorn's right is [Fred] Law, the Maroon quarter[back]. Jimmy Pyott, Maroon captain, is coming up behind the tackler to get into the play."
