Fred chenoweth, Quarterback.
Truly has this star player come in.
70 his own this year. This being
Chenny's third year at MOrgantown,
be has come into form displayed by
the best players In the country, and
the evidence OF this has been shown
In his games this year against Penn
and W:&sJ. Cool under nte, earnest
in work, a splendid runner and re.
ceiyeri OF punts, he stands out as. the
big fghtersof the Mountaineers.
Clay Hite, HaIfhaek.
The work of this Huntington hoy
low serving his second year at West
Virginia has been nothing short OF
marvellous. From a raw recruit to a
finished backfield man in his first
scar, then to polished exponent OF
the Spegel type player, liite now is
a valuable member OF the Mountain.
GERS, splendid backficld. His lightning
end runs, and wonderful work ut re.
ceiying passes down the field brings
dread 10 all opponents.
Harry Curry, Hatfback.
One of Graftons valuable c0ntribu.
tons TO the big state eleven this year
Is the hurricane halfback, featured as
the AHardwick type. Certainly In this
hts ftbtrd spaa r. hos ba propap hattor
man than ever before. A slashing
off.tackleR smasher, and Gibraltar OF

best ever turned out at West Virginia.

pleasure for him.
Errett Rodgers, Fullback and Quarter.
Familiarly known as Rush he
earns this ssoubriquet. His splendid
and effective punting and passing

ognition that he deserves for his
greatswork.
Harold Hutchinson, End.
worthy teammate OF Colehank.
Hutchinson found himself at the end
position this year, and better foot.

not found in this entire part OF the
country. He stands out as the great.
est and surest tackler seen here in
years, and as a receiver OF passes, his
work lis surely excellent.
Dorsey Brannan, Guard.

stamps Brannan as one OF the bull
wafk OF West yirginia's tried and
trusted line. He is an All.State man
OF 1.-TWO years selection, and Is playing
far and above that standard this year.
One OF the nainstays OF speedy for.
ward rush line, he can be depended
upon to stop the majority OF rushes
through the line always.

well;taken care Of by this star. AS a

best ever in the State, and the team
