American team lies in the opportunity
it affords for a general comparison of
the various players who helped to

dearly love individual comparisons,
and the majority of the players are
stimulated to greater efforts by the
hope of gaining an All American rank
ing.
In view of the remarkable popularity
of football and the national interest in
an All American eleven the time has
come for the naming of team and
the ranking of the leading elevens.
The ideal team must necessarily be
made up of men who were able to
shine individually, but not necessarily
at the expense Of team play On it
should be men who were reasonably
consistent throughout the season and
men who proved their resourcefulness
when the strife waxed warmest-men
who showed adaptability to the new
game and were equally fast and ag-
gressive. whether on the attack or in
the defense.
First take the ends. They must be
fast to get down the field under punts,
quick to take advantage of fumbles
and to secure the ball on onside kicks,
sure tacklers in the open, keen to
diagnose opposing plays and to rise to
opportunities which more than ever
come their way. OF the ends this year
to be considered were:
Left-Brown of Harvard, Logan Of
Yale, Dowd of Princeton, Braddock of
Pennsylvania. Right Scarlet of
Pennsylvania. Crowley Of Harvard,
Schildmiller of Dartmouth. Reifsnider
of Annapolis. Scarlet is the selection
for right end because of his consistent
work. This means the embodiment of
speed and fight, combining the great

for the game he played against Yale

his opponents proved his EQUAL
Draper Of Pennsylvania is award
ed the left tackle position because
Of his brilliant work on the defense
and offense throughout the season.
Draper is rarely at fault in diagnosing
the attacks, has a knack of breaking
through and spelling many plays be-
fore they are fairly well under way.
He was conspicuous in tackling down
the field and was forward in provid-
ing interference for the man with the
ball.
O'Rourke of Cornell is given the
right tackle position because of his con.
sistent work in all contests. His defen-
sive work has been first class. His ex-
cellent tackling In the open stopped
many plays. On the offensive his work
was conspicuous by his repeated open
ing up holes for the backs to go
through. He is always on the alert
and quick to diagnose the attack.
Nourse is awarded center position,
but Marks of Pennsylvania and Sling
huff of Annapolis are close runners up.
Slingluff played a good, steady game,
both offense and defense. Carlisle
found it almost impossible to break
through him. Marks work in the
game against Michigan was splendid
1t was his aggressiveness that caused
Captain Schulz to retire from the
game. Nourses work has been consist

Yale. His passing has been sure and
accurate and his blocking and general
