Princeton's larrn lay In the fact that it .evenly balanced. The men 1 Rood and pulled together a manner as to sol the very mils. Princeton was doubt-erlor doubt-erlor to Yale, but far Inferior Urd. The Timers had a won-ja.ck won-ja.ck In "Ilobe" Baker and ly lib would have had Uttlo i' In making the "Legion of Honor," But-could Baker boat out Thorpe. TJrlcklcy or Wendell? ' Wc think not. o V WHAT a wonderful array of backfield talent- Indeed it Is tough' for follows like 4r.Tobo" I?akcr, Hard wick and Aro-asa Aro-asa to tako a., back seat for anyone. Hardwick's gimio against Yale was every bit as brilliant as that of Bticlclcy a trifle brighter in straight football, carrying the .ball. But then, Bricklcy gets the call because of his wonderful kicking ability. lie reglfi-, reglfi-, torcd li! of tho "0 poinls scored against Yale and 0 of the JC rolled up against Princeton. Bricklcy Is one of the most wonderful football piny era of all time. And Jim Thorpe of the Indians, where can you beat him? Ho has been discussed hi these columns before. be-fore. Wonderfully accurate In his kicking, just like Brlckley. he is oven a. more brilliant lino smasher and an a runner through a broken field he has no equal. Add to this the abll- i Ity of punting equal to that of Fcl- J ton and you have the ideal back. Wendell of Harvard seems In a. . class all by himself as a fullback. Offensively and defensively ho is ar near perfection :ut -yosJblo. "Ho Is a great field general in tho bargain, a sure tackier and a dead stiot at taking punts as well a-j a skilful dodger in running them back. I am very .'jorry to confess that 1 did not sec Brown In action this fall - but from ail accounts Crowthrrs must be the best quarterback In the east. Certainly U'ino of the other big- colleges hatf'miR-h to crow "about. Clardncr of Harvard is nrobably the moat rMlablc of tho lot outdid c of the. Brown man but Harvard has had enough glory without drafting any mora of her champions, o v? NOW wc got to the line men. There will be no dispute ovor the center position. Kolcham of Tale has that cinched beyond question. It is not necessary to go into details. He stunda head and shoulders above any conlemporary-Cooney conlemporary-Cooney did great work besides thin wonderful center and for that reason ip picked as ono of the guards. "May- . bo It wnu Kctchatn that made Coonuy. However, we'll lot it. go nr. it stands for good suards are scarco this yean JMoroy of Tiariinouth oems entitled to the oilier guard po- - Billon. Ho is a rar better man than Cooncy, without a doubt and with cither Harvard or Yalo would Ut-tract Ut-tract much or the limelight. Guyon. the grim Indian, looks like the best, tackle of the year. He has tho strength of two ordinary men and the speed of an end. Defonslve-lv Defonslve-lv he can stand any sort of shock. He Is a wonder at covering kicks and a demon at carrying the ball, VTc was one of Warner's mctst reliable ground gainers on the old "tackle-around" "tackle-around" play this year. And ihe best part of it. like Thorpe, ho is a man of steel fibre, impervious to Injury. In-jury. Storer of tho Crimson Is an able mate for Guyon. He played wonderful ball all season, but agaltiBt Talc excelled. That ono game alone would entitle him to "highest honors. Devore of the Army lias been away below hi3 10H form all season. Bomelaler and Fellon would make an Ideal pair of ends. Both are fast men and sure lacklfern. Felton is one of the most remarkable punters in the game, whlcii gives him an added advantage. Despite an Injury which kept him out of the game, for a great part of the BcaBon, Boniols-ler Boniols-ler came back strong and In tho garnets against Princeton and Harvard Har-vard showed the best form of anyone any-one at tho position this yenr. |
