WHO ARE THIS YEARS HEROES?

Every year adds new names to the
list of football heroes at the University

season gaps are left in the ranks, yet
there is never a lack of new material.
This year is not exceptional. A long
list of new men is trying out What
will be their reward?
In practice each man strives to play
the one best game. Some fail but
gradually one climbs to the top. The
day for the big game draws near.
Other players and the coach put faith
in his ability. The students and fac
Ulty look 10 him as preserver of the
honor OF the university. The strain
upon him is nothing as compared to
the honors he shall receive. At last
he has the ball: an open field is be-
fore him: a struggling, mass of play
ers is behind. He runs as if his life
depended upon reaching the goal. An
injury matters little now. His one
thought is to reach that goal. He
places the ball behind the posts and he
has won the game. Students crowd
about him and he is the hero of the
university. How soon is his achieve
ment forgotten? Possibly some months
OF honor and glory await him but at
