Cornell, has proved his right to first
rank in many games this year. AS a
field general he has surpassed Bacon, of
Drake, and Tenor, of Ames, in the
games played with Drake and Ames
Miller is excellent at telling his players
their faults and keeping their game up.
Bacon, of Drake, played a very heady
game against Iowa, but in both the
Simpson and Cornell games he lost the
game by poor headWork. In both games
he took his team by tackle smashes
to the tive-yard line and then changed
to short end runs which were broken
up and Drake held for downs within
stepping distance of q touchdown. Van
Lieu, of Grinnell. has played an ex-
cellent game and will be among the
first quarterbacks in the state with
more experience. Tener, of Ames, has
shown good judgment in handling his
team and has played well individually.
For balfbacks there are a number of
good players, Hayward, of Cornell;
Captain j. G. Jones, of the Normal;
Scott and Schiller, of Ames; Captain
Don Evans, of Grinnell; Main and
Clarke, of Drake, and Steinke and
Martin, of Coe. Many of these have
several more years to play and will
make stronger players next year than
this. Hayward and J. c. Jones stand
out prominently for the two halfback
positions on the team. Hayward is
very speedy on end runs if given fair
is an excellent place
kicker and a fine goal kicker AS he
outpunted Stewart, of Drake, In the
Cornell Drake game he would do the
kicking for the team. Jones is the best
line smasher on the college teams and
in addition is a good end runner, ex-
cellent in helping and very heady
player Captain Evans, of Grianell,
comes the nearest of any of the Grim
nell players to making the all-college
team, but his play in two or three
games has detracted from his work for
the season. Steinke is heavy half
back, which has aided him in making
steady gains on line smashing. He fol-
lows interference well and Is good on
defense Martin will make an excel
lent player in another year.
With Hayward for end runs and
Jones for line smashing on the team.
one more man is needed to make very
strong back field. He is found in Bur-
cham of Drake, whose hurding this sea-
son has been little less than wonderful.
Weaver of Simpson has been good
line plunger and has by his good right
leg saved his college against Drake, but
he is hardly equal to Burcham as full
back. Deshler of Ames has been unable
to be in all the games this year, but has
played finely while he lasted.
