A | good deal of the passing now ds di- rect passing, and that requires even greater regularity than through the quarterback.

Louric Fine Choice. “The quarterback position goes, after much consideration, to Lourie of Princeton, because, as a climax to the rest of his work, his generalship not only iIn former gamos but in his final contest for the scason, that with Yale, was almost uncanny in its ac- curacy in disclosing every weak point of his opponents. In all other points, McMillan «nd Boynton were quite on par with him. held in a high degree the wonderful reputation he made last year, and both he and Boynton are exceptional assets to any team Poor Gipp. “In the backficld, Gipp of Notre Dame gets the first place on account of his yersatility and power, able as ho is to punt, drop-kick, forward pass, run, tackle—in fact, do any- thing that any backfield man could ever be required to do, and do It in a well nigh superlative fashion. He drop-kicked on his freshman team sixty-two yards When a man who has been taken off with a badly in- | jured shoulder can go in on a pinch and carry the ball over the goal line to et his team an absolutely neces- sary touchdown, something of the man’s power can well be understood. Way, of Penn State gets the next place, not only for speed, clusiveness, and quick sizing up of opportunity, but also because he could always be relled upon when held on the side lines to gxo In at any time when things were menacing to his team and make the necessary gains against any opposition. A most elusive back, far ore than any of the others, he still as plenty of power for straight line plunging and off-tackle plays. Stinch- comb of Ohio State, who completes the trio, is the fastest man down under a forward pass on the grid- iron today His speed, together with the passing of Workman, pulled his team out of a hole in the Wisconsin game in the last minute of play, and he has repeated this on other occa- Had inchcomb been an or- dinary man, although fairly fast, he would not have been able to get away with these plays, for the defense was prepared for them, saw them coming, and yet was deceived in both cases on wocount of this pecullar burst of speed which Stinchcomb is able to put on. Stinchcomb is also a quarter- back of note and backfield runner second to none, but it is just that as- | set of speed which makes it necessary to have him We reserve Scheerer of Princeton and Templeton of Stan- ford as long-distance punters for emergencies. A Powerful Eleven. “We thus put in that remarkable little general's hands, Lourie, all the weapons of an attack that we can possibly give him by the use of Way, Stinchcomb, and Gipp. We put in front of him a line of supreme power, | a line on which we can count upon three markable men for getting down the fleld under a kick—Fincher, Carney and Keck—men in Keck and Scott who are llable to hurry punter, and very likely block a kick; men in Callahan and Keck who can alternate In roving defense; a tackle in Scott who can not only smash the interference, but who Is quick enough to seize the runner, and in n, steady passer who feeds the ball well to his backs at all times. “The stiffness of this line on fense—its speed to hurry forward passers, and its power to open and drive the opposit'on back fense—is exceptionally high in of- class, and oppos'ng tackles who were men- aced by Fincher and Carney at the time they were trying to get through runner would find their hands with this little tack- at the full As a matter of fact line there would be ve ling letf for the secondary defense, and in that way it would be kept fresh at all times.
