the Southern Illinois conference
and placing four men on tie an
sta. team OF the same.
With the exception OF tne,r de
feat by Harrisburg on THANKSGIVING

risburg had a similar record up to
the Turkey Day game and with that
victory made for themselves the un-
disputed championship Of Southern
Illinois with Cairo following 9e-y
close for second honors.
The following is the All Sou.he n
Illinois choice as picked by Coach
Ward of Harrisburg and Coach
Ryan of cairo. This honor ju tly
falls to these two men as their
teams finished in first and second
places respectively
Left end, Rink. Of Cairo
Left tackle, Tuscn, of HARRISBURG.
Left guard, Hall. Of Cairo.
Confer, Cannon, of Ha' riabury.
Right guard, Stcnson, of tlldo~ado
Right tackle, Miller. Of Cairo
Right cad, Hutchinson, Of nar-
risbure
Quartc- back Beaaley, of Edo
radc.
Right half back, Kusenor, of
Cairo,
Left half back. Parrish, of IEar-
risburg.
Fun back, Lodford. of Harris
burg.
Among these II All Star men
picked from the high schools Of
Southern Illinois there are four
cairo mcn--Left eud, Rink; Left
Guard. Hall; Right Tackle, Miller
and Right Half Back, Kuscner. All
these men are deserving of their
honors having won distinction in
every game However it is not
that there ara other men on the
Cairo team whose names do not ap-
pear in this choice that have also
done excellent work anl are worthy
of special mention
Left End Rink received his hon
ors due to his spectacular work with
the forward pass. During the sea-
son "Boots" has created thrilling
sensations along the stielines by
his numerous successful passes
Along with Rink must be men
toned his mate, Right End Brown.
AS Rink is a specialist on passes so
Brown has won an equal reputation
as the surest tackle in Southern
Illinois. Victus uses the "shoe
string" style of tackling and has
not allowed a man to pass him dur
ing the entire season.
Miller, right tackle, has done
good work all season and won a
place on the All Stars by his steady
and consistent playing, Miller is
the kind that promises to be any
where there is excitement and foot
ball is no exception.
Curry, the left tackle is one of
the new men on the team who won
his place in a walk and held it all
season by hard consistent playing.
Grandpa" is the wit of the team
and deserves mention for the fine
spirit that he has helped to imbue
in his teammates.
Skyles and Hall, guards for Cairo,
have also played their role in the
1913 season in stellar form the lat
ter winning a place on the All Star
ch2ice. Hall has also played a good
game at half back during the last
of the season. Skyles is one of the
smallest men on the team but has
always won distinction whether at
guard or in the back field.
Schoembs, center for Cairo, is a
new man but has played like a vet
eran. "Dutchman" should develop
into a top notch" center and thus
equal his brothers record.
Every hat in the Cairo high
school goes off at mention of Swo-
boda, the plucky little quarter back.
