was the star Of the game with Am

Dartmouth game in which he was in
iured Kelley of Bowdoin. Cole of the
university of Maine. and Piper OF
Rates seem to be in about the same
class. They are all good men but are
rsrdlv to be mentioned with the
previously named ends. Kelley is
COOL in breaking interference. Piper
is a good all-round end. Cole is an
average man, but is inclined to break
several of the rules Of the game while
nlaving. Ex-Capt. Ike" Saunders of
Colby. although rather light for the
position. played we'll at end for his
team until he resigned after the death
cf Biselow a fellow player. Saunders
had a good record at Philips Andover
and knows the game thoroughly.
Next come the tackles. Captain
Doyticos Of t. Of NJ stands at the head
Of the list without much doubt. He
has proved himself to he in the right
position this year and has been a great
ground gamer for the Orono team.
Next in prominence seems to come
Andrews Of Bates. He is an aggreS SsiVe
PLAYER and has proved himself TO be
formidable man for his opponents.
Hamilton Of BoWdoin is a close third
for the position. He is a very light
man, but has always played the game
in an aggressive manner. Reed Of
Bates is a member of the freshman
clasc and has had very little expert
onec IN the game He came from
kent's Hill and with one or two more
years on the gridiron he ought To ~tand
at the head of the list of men for the
tackle position. Dunlap Of BoWdoin.
4 powf rful player. was injured before
the football season opened and 81 did
hot tax" much active part in football
tbs year Soule of Bowdoin was
also prevented by injuries from show
ing his real strength. Keene of Colby
itai;ed the season at tackle. but as he
haS changed TO full-back and has
proved AimSelf to be- a find IT that
position. he will he considered later.
For guards Davis of Bowdoin. Hunt
and Childs of Bates stand at the head
Of the men for the position. Davis has
paved the entire season at the posi-
ton and has showed himself to be an
exceptionally strong man in the line.
Hunt and Childs are both good men
ana u IS nearly tosS-up between
them. Hunt is somewhat the heavier
Il the two. but is not such a snappy
layer as Childs and is not as good in
getting through the line on defensive
work For this reason, the place
SHOULD belong to chlds Sawyer of
ne University of Maine is a good
guard. is Weighty man. but in each
game has shown that he is very slow.
'iark of Colby is in Sawyer's class
ana although not as heavy is nearly as
slow.
