Don Nichols, the star California halfback, gave one of the finest demonstrations of halfback play ever dished up in the Northwest in the Washington game. He is given a berth on the second squad.

Gray, the famous Princeton end, did won derful service for the Tigers, and it was largely his individual work that made Princeton's season so success ful. He was almost @ unanimous |choice of sport scribes in a recent | Eastern poll. | Goebel and Kirk, the Michigan ends, were rated as the best In the Middle West. Roberts of Centre was shifted around considerably, but played a big part at end in his team's big season. Kopf, of Washington and Jefferson, was rated as one of the best recelvers of forward passes in the country. on the second team, Beam, picked by many as the best tackle on the Pa- cific Coast, and Wellar, the Nebraska tackle, get the third cal. EASTERN GUARDS SELECTED Schwab, of Lafayette, the guard in the country last up his wonderful work according to all reports of games. Breidster, Army, a giant of a man, & star in nearly every game ays military team. uhn, of Washington, playing his first college football, was seen in this neck woods this year. McMillin, pound guard of Illinois, is bi ning mate. Clarke, of California, and Cal of U. 8. C., powerful pair of men, are placed on the third squad. DEARTH OF GOOD CENTERS There was a dearth of good cen- ters thruout the country. Bowser, the choice of most of the writers af ee with Garbisch, the giant Army center, second choice. The Coast had two good men in De Groot, of Stanford, and Callison, of Oregon, but neither had the pres- tige of Asa. of Minnesota. Smythe, of the Army, was one of the most versatile quarterbacks of the year. He could do everything well, not only directing his team in big-league fashion, but playing well himself. This latter consideration | sives him the edge over Charley Erb, the Californian, one of the greatest field generals the Coast has ever seen. Charley Buell, of Har- vard, another great field general, is | given third choice. Darling, of Boston college; Coving- ton, of Centre; Parkin, of Lowa, and Pfann, of Cornell, were all great layers. KAW BEST HALFBACK Kaw, of Cornell, was the out standing backfield man of the year, & powerful, all-around performer. Kipke, of Michigan, the best | triple-threat man in the Middle | West, would make an idea! running mate for him. Nichols of California, and Owen of Harvard, would make a powerful jcombination. Owen played at full back most of the time, but he's too g00d to be left out.
