CAMP SELECTS
 AMERICAN TEAM
Football Aggregation Players
 From Smaller Colleges
By WALTER CAMP.

i The 1ineun of the Allan erican team of 1919 presents the most pow erfuI and versatile aggregation of , players that have been on the grldlrOn for a long time. It is practically all veteran material educated in the modern game. There is no man on it who has not developed to the full the possibilities of his position.
 We have in the ends, Higgins of Penn State, and H. Miller of Penn- sylvania, a pair of players of remark able speed in getting down the field and covering kicks, both of them strong in breaking up and sitting through interference, and each an adept on receiving forward passes.
 In the two tackles, West of Col gate, and Henry of Washington and Jefferson, we have men who have practically dominated this position for two or three years, and in one West-a long distance punter of both a dry and wet ball, as well as a field goal kicker from placement
 The two guards, Alexander of Sy- racuSe, and Youngstrom of Dart mouth, are the greatest pair of de- fensivc guards that have ever been seen on the gridiron, Alexander par ticularly against running plays, and Youngstrom the terror of the oppon- ents when kicker from placement
 Weaver of Center college, is one of the best-built men for the position that has ever played in the middle of the line. He is lighter in actual pounds than the usual type of center, but that weight is so placed that as pivot man he can play either in the line or as rowing center
 McMillin of Center, gets the quar- terback berth for his all-around utili- ty, speed and hard-hitting aggres- siveness.
 And the trio behind him would be the envy of any tesm-Casey of Harvard, Harley of Ohio State, and Rodgers of West Virginia. Casey tied the Princeton game, coming strong CT and faster when his team was practically beaten.
 Harley of Ohio State, is a fitting mate for him and a star drop kicker. He is also one of the hardest men in the country to stop when once started on a run. We complete the trio with Rodgers of West Virginia, the hard hitting backfield man who is even more adept at throwing the pass than any man who has played this season.
