In carrying out this method, critics resort to any expedient designed to produce a play, ing championship team. Others among the experts realizing th impossibility of materializing , their mythical quintet Pick for the various positions, plavers who have shown the greatest knowledge and the greatest proficiency therein This would seem to be the better way. for after all is said and done, teams are .nothing these more than honor rolls. IC. - Pom" Parsons, the Denver critic, who picks the team for Spalding Guide, prefers the former plan, ns doubt, Russell Magelby. a selects be for running guard, for a center on one ot his mythical fives. Of course Magelby could aot play center he doe. guard or forward because he tv short getthe Jump once In a season. The coaches who balloted for an honor teem pursued the same policy when selected Capt. Carl Dan - they of thh Championship Utah Aggies as an guard despite tre fact that Davis never played the position tn his life. Davis Is an forward or center. If ho is anything at all. a Only by process could he be selected as an honor player at a position ho has never played . Tet them are proper selections and very well picked on the plan, which evidently Mr. Parsons as well as many other critics prefer. But If a team ware to be selected tor actual play each man would be picked for his ability to play one position and piay it exceedingly well. Such an aggregation, and tho ohe tbe writer would pick , team would as an appear like this: FORWARDS Davis and Parkinson of Utah Aggies. c CENTER r.
