DEATH AMONG HIS FORMER
WARRIORS.

During the past Week there. passed
away one of the most noble characters
which the Indian race has ever pro-

race and his death removes almost the
last prominent Indian in Montana.

Coach Mcintosh. when asked in re-
gard to his selection for an ALI Mon
tana team. gave the following players
as being his choice for the different
positions:
Left end-PooI, M. A. C.

Left half-Winstanley. U. of M.
Right haif-Daiy, School Of Mines.
FuIlbaek - Cuilerton, School Of

In speaking of his selection last
evening Coach Mcintosh said that in
picking the players he was endeavor-
ing to select the men. who in his opin-
Jon. would make the strongest combi-
nation of players to be found i'm Mon
tana. In speaking Of the ends Mr.. Nc
Intush said that he could not see any
thing but Pool and Little. as both
We're good basketball men and We're
unequaled in the state in ability to
handle the forward pass.
For the tackle positions Ryan and
Ittner are picked by Mr.. Mcintosh. as
In his estimation. Ittner is not back
field man and is strong in both offense
and defense from the tackle position.
His work in the line, according to Me
Intosh. would be of much more value
~, h..ln in
a way that a lighter man would be
unable to and thus would enable his
backfield to make use Of its greater
speed. Ryan is without a doubt the
only other logical man for timers
opposite.
As guards Sheriff and Jensen are
selected as being the most aggressive
and brilliant men in that position. In
placing Jensen at guard. Mr.. Mcintosh
stated that his reason was because
Stoddard at center needed two heavy.
experienced and speedy men with him.
on account of his light weight and also
because. in his opinion. lttner would
be of more service at tackle than
Jensen.
Stoddard. although handicapped by
his light weight. is picked by Mr.. Nc
Intosh on account of his experience.

AS captain and quarterback. Mr..
Mcintosh states that there Is not tn"
slightest doubt about Bishop being the
man for the place. rs he has had more
experience. is clever man at running

backs that could be found in the state.
an placing cullerton over 1ttner at
fullback am considering the fact that
Ittner is a good ground gamer and
remarkably fast man for his weight.
but il seems tn me that cullerton makes
up in speed what he lacks in weight
and should. on that account. have the
call over lttner. as he would be more
valuable man in the back field and i'm
making up an ali-MOntana team lttner
would be of more value in the line than
