Newark evening star and Newark advertiser., 1914-12-05

Following the football season, the
next thing in order is the selecting of
a team known as the "All-State scho-
lastic eleven,'' composed of players
who have more than made their mark
during the seasons playing on the
gridiron. Should these players, Sc
lected for "all-scholastic," have the
good fortune of playing together, 1t
is believed that they would sweep
everything within reach on the
scholastic field. The Evening Star,
from personal observation, and with
the help of the big preparatory
school coaches, has chosen an eleven
which is believed to be unbeatable
in schoolboy circles. Lawrenceville's s
eleven, which was the undisputed
champion, has the honor of having
five of its players classified among
the leaders. Peddie Institute, which
was a close second to Lawrenceville
is listed with three players. The
rest of the team is chosen from
Railway High School. Atlantic City
High School and Blair Academy.
The Lawrenceville team was
coached by C. Harlow Raymond. 1t
played what is known as the big
prep school teams, the class, IN
other words. Only one. team got the
better of the Lawrenceville boys,
and that was Princeton Freshman.
The score of that game was 10 to 0,
which only goes to show how strong
the Raymond charges really We're
Consideration must also be taken in
view of the fact that it was Lawrence
ville's first game of the season. The
Barringer team of this city, Wnlch
carried one of the strongest forward
lines of the high school elevens, was
beaten, 80 to O.. Tome, Peddie, Pen
nington and Mercerburg also fell be-
fore the Lawrenceville attack. Ped
die and Mercersburg teams, the real
rivals of Lawrenceville, were beaten
by scores of 10 to 0 and to U, re-
spectively. Peddie Institute also
was represented by strong eleven.
The Hill School, LaWrencev1lle ana
Princeton Freshmen were victors
over the Highstown, but the margin
of their victories was small. Prince
ton Freshmen only won by 3 to U, ana
Hill School by 10 to s. Peddie's most
notable win was scored over Pen-
nington, the score Of this contest
being 94 to 0.
Lawrenceville Players Stand Out.
The five Lawrenceville players
whose work stood out during the sea-
son were Captain Funk at centre,
Ryan at guard, Hunter at end,
Franzheim at halfback, and Rubsa-
men at fullback. Peddie Institute
notables were Wescott, who ala
great werk at guard; Hart, whose
work at tackle stood out, and Muir
ply, quarterback of first rank.
Alfred Brooks, one of Coach snort
proteges, Is gifted with his apllty
TO hold down one of the flank POSI-
tions. Craig, whose forward passing
was a big help to Atlantic City, be-
sides his long runs, is put at half
back. and Graves, of Blair, gets the
other position at left tackle.
Few Strong Guards.
At only one position was there a
dearth of material this season for an
"all-State," and that was at guard.
AS first choice, Wescott, Of Peddle,
and Ryan. of Iawrenceville, held their
end ND well, and there appeared to be
little complaint on their work as
whole. Both boys played good, con-
sistent football in practically every
game played by their respective
teams. Ryan's work especially was
pleasing to watch. He has peen

two years, and is noted to be gifted
with gray matter extraordlnary'
Heroy, of Pennington, probably dls-
PLAYED his best work of the season
when playing against Peddie lnstl-
tute's team. The Pennington team
was being swamped and the coaches
were in a jam trying to catch a re-
lief man. Heroy, who was mindlng
the bulk of the blankets on the slue
lines, was rushed into service, ana
right then and there he clinched his
position. His work stood out head
and shoulders above his teammates.
G. Morris Midlxiff, who coached the
Peddie team in 1913, remarked OF MS
good work in the game and predicted
a bright future for the youngster;
.Sliker, of the Barringer High School
of this city, is placed on the second
team for his good work this season.
Star Tackles Aplenty.
Tackles there were aplenty, but
Graves. of Blair, and Hart, of Peddie,
come in for the big share OF credit.
Hart came from the st. George School
of Pennsylvania and made hit with
the coaches ON his first appearance.
Graves is not only a good player on
the defense and offense, but he is
known to be heady and can be de-
pended upon when hard pushed. His
tackling has been a big help to the
Blair team, and the coaches were not
