Hutson Mugged; Still Makes the Catch
Here’s an image from a 1947 Green Bay Packers game program, showing Hall of Fame end Don Hutson in action two years before. The original caption reads: “Don Hutson, closely guarded by Hugh Gallarneau (obscured) still makes the catch of Irv Comp’s pass for a long gain against Chicago Bears in City Stadium in 1945. Bulldog Turner (No. 66) Bear center, is hoping the secondary closes in on Hutson before he gets too far. It did… 32 yards down the field.”
