DARTMOUTH Is A
FACTOR IN THE EAST
Lesser School Has Broken Into the
Faster Company at Football.

Boston, Dec. 9.-There has always
been and will always be "big' group
in the eastern college football world,
but many persons think it. is time now
that the makeup Of the group under
went change, change providing for
amplifcation. When the idea Of the
"Big Four was conceived its makeup
was as plain as daylight-Harvard,
Yale, Princeton and Pennsylvania.
Those were the days when there was
nothing to the field but these four, and
the minor college teams were held in
the light Of nothing more than trial
horses and the means to desired end.
But things, like times, have changed
in the football world and the "Big
Four is subject to Immediate revision.
The exclusive square is broken at least
at one corner and the future combina-
tion should provide "Big Five, :"
Dartmouth being placed at least in
one Of the points of the pentagon. Of
all the teams that might be considered
classy enough to aspire to the high place
given by membership in the group
Dartmouth is the one which has ac-
tually earned the right to the coveted
rating.
In furtherance Of Dartmouth's claim
to the high honor it's record of the last
three years is offered, backed by the
record Of this year. Its supremacy Of
the past years in the second string has
been pronounced and the win from
Harvard two years ago and the tie of
last year add to the weight Of the evil
dence. This year the victory over
Princeton and finally the even break
for the second time In two years with
Harvard complete the bill and give the
attorneys for the petitioners an argu
ment which is as weighty as it is hard
to answer.
4 Dartmouth's rise to fame in the
world Of football has been steady and
consistent, the result Of clearly de
fined and steadily adhered to policy
Raw material has been taken in hand
and nodded into shape time and time
again, and instead Of an aggregation
of stars the teams of the past few years
have been well balanced and perfectly
working machines. The one-man coach
ing, the one-man training and thu
sticking in the face Of everything t.
one policy of development are tn,
things which have placed Dartmouth
so high. That this order Of things will
:, continue there is little doubt, for be
|. sides knowing what to do the Dart
mouth outfit knows when it has goo,
! thing and sticks to it.

been a touchback. Eckersall is small
in size, standing but feet 6 inches
and weighing but l42 pounds. His punt
ing is overrated and he made the grave
mistake in the Michigan game Of de.
pending too much upon his speed and
losing ground thru running back to
avoid and dodge tackles after catching
punts. He depends too much ION his
speed and lost ground thru it on sew
eral occasions. His generalship is good
and he runs his team at high speed.
He is daring, as shown by running out
from behind his own goal and giving
Michigan the same show at a safety
that marked the Clark incident. He is
dangerous on offense on account of his
sprinting ability and taken on every
side has the edge on any western guar
ter Of the year. Melzner $ field goal on

FEW STARS IN THE
LESSER UNIVERSITIES
Michigan, Wisconsin and Mime
sofa Furnish Team of Speed
: -. and Power.

In submitting what I believe to
be the best array Of players that
can be gathered for an All-Western
team, I have endeavored to choose
with fairness, not allowing con-
siderations of personal friendship
into the selection. The team as
picked is made after watching
Minnesota, Michigan, Chicago, Wis
consin, Nebraska, Colorado, North
western and Iowa in play this sea-
son. 7 have not seen the lesser
teams of the big nine in action
and such comment as is made upon
them is based on opinions Of others.
AS the picking of representative
teams is matter of personal judg-
ment, it Is to be expected that
there will be those who see the
matter in another light.

Michigan Gets Guards.

At guards I prefer Schultz, Of Mich
igan, and Graham, of the same team,
working in conjunction with Schultz
at center. This / believe to constitute
the strongest center trio in the west.

Minnesota brought him some note, but
aside from that he did little, save to
show good generalship with his men.
Norcross of Michigan was not above
mediocrity and Minnesota s. quarter
work was crude in the beginning, but
improved later. Benedict of Nebraska
showed some merit at this work, altho
not gaining rank with Melzner.
The Halves.
Tom Hammond, of Michigan, and
Findlay, Of Wisconsin, have earned the
halfback positions. Hammond is an
other Of Yost's six footers, and more,
with a weight Of 1856 and three years ,
experience. He meets all the require
ments of superior half. He has great
power, speed and can kick, punt or
place, in disconcerting style. He is
not brilliant, spectacular player, but
the consistency Of his work is product
i've of progress when Michigan has the
ball. He IS said by the opposing play
ers to be hard to stop and on defense
goes in with a speed that has hurled
back many plays that looked as tho
they were bound to pass the line.
Findlay is faster than Hammond, as
Minnesota has reason to know. He can
wiggle thru small hole and is hard
to tackle. Once thru, he has the speed
Of deer. He is far from being a Hes.
ton and is not particularly strong at
going straight in, but once hole is
opened up, Kings man can go thru it
with any Of the halves Of the west. He
made his escape at Ann Arbor just as
he did at Minneapolis, only Michigan
was lucky in having a man furthe,
back, to get him. Findlay outshone
Vanderboom, whose work of the year
was disappointment, partly thru in
jury, partly thru an apparent loss Of
speed. Working with Hammond ani
Eckersall, Findlay would be the most
valuable man in the west for offensive

Amos Alonzo Stage is correct in his
charge, has played football long enough
to be the best in the west. He is
great defensive player and his work
gives him the place., despite the fact
that 90 per cent Of the followers Of the
western game think he has been ineligi-
BILE all season. -. --,.> -
Graham weighs 223 pounds, stands
5 feet inches, is 20 years old and has
just completed his second year OF var
sity play. He is used to carry the ball
occasionally and when this bulk is given
gains. Graham is remarkably fast for
man Of his proportions: and was a
mountain Of opposition and willingness
were made on him. Schultz has clearly
outplayed every center who has faced
him. He is a well-proportioned athlete,
standing feet 9 inches in height,
weighs 205 pounds and starts on his
third year Of Michigan play next sea-
son. He is one of the cleanest ball
passers seen since the days of Nose
Strathern, and no matter whether pass
| ing to the quarter, or for a. drop or
place kick, Schultz always puts the
oval into the hands of the waiting
player Braced on either side by Ora
ham and Schultz, Schultz has formed
tower Of Yost IS defense in the line.
At Chicago Gale gave him a great bat
tie, but did not overcome him suff-
| GENTLY to wrest from him the honors
for an all-western team. Those who
saw the Observation-Disclosures game say
that Schultz was clearly the master of
Remp, altho his guard help may have
assisted in this performance.
/ H.. Other Good Guards.
There were other guards in the west
who deserve mention. Theodore Vita
was prevented from showing at his
best by a wrenched knee. Donovan
Meigs, Gelbach and Oech played goo6
football, but were hardly going fast
enough to get away with the Michigan
men. At center Minnesota was handi
, capped thru the loss of Stafford just
before the Wisconsin game, and while
little Kjelland fought plucky fgh
he was too light to accomplish much
Bandelin, the later center, played I
very strong game and looks like a com
ing man. Borg of Nebraska played a,
early season game that looked as TIT
he would make trouble for Schultz
Remp and Gale, but in the later game
he did not rise to the occasion. He i

the west. Remp was outplayed b,

Schultz.

The chief stock in trade of some of
the republican papers of the state at
this time seems to be a TRADE against
Governor Toole because, in his wis
dom, he saw fit to answer the petition
of the executive committee of the Mon
tana Rate association for special
session of the legislature, in thor
oughly business-like and judiciovs
manner. They impute to the governor
an insincerity of purpose. Knowing
that he was firmly in favor of a rail-
road commission they opine that in
order to be consistent he should endorse
all movements tending in that direction
whether radical or not; they affirm
that he expressed himself to the eighth
Legislative assembly as wanting that
body to incorporate in their measures
the names of officials for any new Off
Ces which they saw fit to create. Even
SO, what of it? The majority men,
bers of the eighth Legislative assembly
were not elected on a platform binding
themselves to ''safely guarded" meas
ures; and again, the governors state
ment had to do with measures incident
to that particular session, and dealt
ninth Legislative assembly when the
governor vetoed the Thirteenth Judicial
district BILL he distinctly informed the
Legislature that should they attempt in
any future Legislation to usurp his
prerogative in the appointment of Off
Gals for offices of their creation the
bill would meet with veto. Therefore
they cannot conscientiously say that
they did not know, when they passed
the railroad commission bill, that the
measure would not be killed by the
governor, and justly so. They not
only named the personnel of the COM
mission but extended the term of offic e
beyond the next general election. Then
again it is argued that the governor
held the bill until after the adjourn
ment of the legislature before vetoing
it, thereby making it impossible te
amend it to meet with his approval--a
weak argument by weaker men. The
legislature had plenty of time to pas
bill of this nature up to the governo,
early enough in the game to make il
impossible for him to hold it until adj
jourrment was taken. But the major
ity members were practicing the art O
Legislative Juggling and so "safel,
guarded" their railroad commissio,
bill as to make it impossible for tn,
people to get relief from unjust rail
road taxation. Aud now they are at
tempting to justify their actions b,
villifying the governor. But the,
might just as we'll spare their energy
The integrity and worth of Governo
Toole are too greatly appreciated BY
the people of Montana for the ranting
of the Record and its ilk to have tn
slightest impression thereon.
