The following. from the Washington
Post contains much which VIII appear
to football enthusiasts In this section.
1t also carries suggestion which
those interested might do well TO FOL
low up. Here il Is:
There must be something radically
wrong with south Atlantic football.
when its best players get neither con-
slderation nor mention by the leading
Eastern critics and so little is known
of its most important games by some
o. these same persons that the teams
that Agure in these contests cannot be
correctly named. The matter is brought
TO mind again by consideration of
Walter Camps annual review of the
season. incidental to his All-American
picking, printed In the current Col
lier's
Like other critics. Mr.. Camp. who is
entitled TO credit for his effort to con-
slider the entire country. skips lightly
over the South Atlantic section. Thus
tar the only picker who has given a
place on his team to a man from this
part OF the land is Tom Thorpe. who
named Costello. OF Georgetown. as his
quarterback. He is one of the very
few metropolitan or New England eN-
pcrts who have seen the player named
in action. Ny. Camp also gives Cos
tello a mention. and this is the only
attention that he pays to South Allan
tic players After telling why he picks
Crowthcr. Pazzett' and Bs>on for his
three teams. Mir. Camp refers to other
good quartcrbacks that the season
showed. naming Costello first among
FIVE whom ne cowmends. BY inference.
the Georgetown lad would he on the
fourth team il one were picked. Nc
Kissick. OF Swarthmore. Gardner. Of
Harvard. Miller Of Penn state and
Butler. of Cornell. are the men whose
names follow that or Costello on the
honorable mention list
Rzt a severe blow Is dealt to those
who think that the south Atlantic
came gets much attention outside Of
its own territory nv perusai % the
closing narasraph % the Camp article.
]; seems Incredible that the leacin-
football critic Of the country. writing
for one Of its principal wecklies, lacks
either the interest in. or the !uforma

that South Atlantic teams rlay-tne
