HESTON SHOULD
HAVE HONORARY Place

years, while modern footballers
play only three years, but Oil
plant, the great Army scoring
machine who is playing his sixth
year of college football, does not
come close to Heston's marvellous
achievement.
Heston was never stopped.
Minnesota came as close to it rs
any aggregation when Michigan
was held to a 6 to 6 tie. But in
this game Minnesota could not
stop Heston who carried the ball
SO yards in IL plays placing the
ball on the Gophers' two-yard
line from which Maddox went
over for a touchdown.
To return to Heston's touch
down record, 1t must be remem-
bered that it was before the many
trick plays which have been de-
veloped from its use making scor-
ing easier in many instances, and
that Hestons touchdowns were
made by backing thru solid lines
of fighting men or by circling ends
where speedy, watchful backs lay
in wait.
With all respect to Eddie Ma
han, we believe we shall vote for
Willie Heston.

: Grantland Rice suggested that
q backfield composed of Jim
Thorpe, Ted Coy, Willie Heston
and Walter Eckersall might well
be considered the greatest and
most powerful in the history OF
football, bringing considerable
criticism from New England on
account of Charley Brickley and
Eddie Mahan, particularly the
latter, being left out, and suggest
ing that Mahan be substituted
for Heston.
1t is years and years since
Willie smashed his way to suprem-
acy at Michigan and his exploits
have, no doubt, been somewhat
dimmed by more recent players,
but before usurping his place on
an all-time backfield it isn't amiss
to glance over Willie's record.
During his college career Hes
ton amassed a total of SO touch
downs which gave him total OF
465 points. This was in the days
when touchdown counted five
points instead of six and still his
mark is fully 100 points ahead of
any rivals.
OF course Heston played four

William 8. Hart, in THE AIRY
an" which comes to the Apollo
Sunday, has the role of a young
prospector, who, early in the pic
ture, is duped out of his two
years savings by the clever ruse
of dance hall girl, part play
ed by Louise Glaum. To accom-
plish her end, the girl is forced
to lie to him regarding the con-
tents Of telegram which tells
him of the mortal illness of his
mother. When he learns the truth,
revenge fills the prospector's
heart and mind. He goes to the
dwelling of the girl and by main
force drags her out to his horse,
where he throws her over the ami
mails back, mounts, and rides
away at a gallop, answering, shot
for shot, the volleys that are fired
after him by the pursuing party.
Harris flight from his pursuers
is said to be one of the most
thrilling scenes ever photographed.
