In 1921, Morrison signed an agreement with Frank Fausch, the owner of the Evansville Crimson Giants of the National Football League. The two arranged for a benefit game that would provide funds for the construction of a World War I veterans\' memorial. Immediately the Giants secured the exclusive use of the only suitable stadium in Evansville, Bosse Field. As a result, Fausch\'s team became the only pro football team in Evansville, as the semi-pro Evansville Ex-Collegians were forced to join the Crimson Giants.\n', '
