Several Individual Stars.

For the two teams there were several
individual stars, men who did the great
er part Of the work in advancing the ball
and in defending their own gcal. King,
for Central, was perhaps the most con-
sistent player in tie line-ups of the two
teams. There did not seem TO be time
when he could not diagrose the play or
the Tech eleven and he was the most
valuable man 20 his eleven or the defense
King also was the man who was depend
ed on to carry the ball in the pinches. 1t
was he who on the final plunge carried 1t
across the goal line for the only score OF
the game.
The defensive work of White, the Tech
nical tackle and the playing of Ocken-
reiter in the backfield were perhaps the
most noteworthy features of the pay OF
the Manuai Trainers.
Not that there were not other men who
deserved mention for their work because
every man on the two eleyens did his duty
and played the best Of which he was cap
able. 1t was thought that Central would
win but the stubborn defense put up by
the Tech eleven STAYED off defeat until
the last period of play.
