OUARTERBACKS.

We have placed Don Lourie of Prince
ton as quarterback on our first eleven,
over Ben Boynton OF Williams Lourie
had the advantage over Boynton in that
he started for a big team. Boynton
proved great player and remarkable
scorer, but he did not have strong sup
port. Harvard stopped him because he
could not get any Interference worthy OF
the name.
Both were good. all around ltickers.
Jordan OF Dartmouth was easily the
third best quarterback. with Killlnger Of
Penn State Just as easily fourth best.

and Williams. the Brown star. Fallon
OF Syracuse might have won place II
he had not been injured. Robertson,
the Syracuse captain, who was converted
from centre. played a fine game at
end, but he was out of his position.
White of the ArnlX gave fine exhi-
bition in the Navy game, and won hon
orable mention on the strength of that
performance alone.

Joe Alexander of Syracuse, All-Eastern
guard of 1919, and Bill Cunningham OF
Dartmouth Alexander would be star
at any place in the line. He Is natural
flashing football player. Cunningham
gave him close fight for the job.
Havemeyer of Harvard did not start
so well. but as the season advanced he
became a really great pivot Heaphy OF
Boston College was a bit light. but
great fighter. Stein OF Pittsburg and
Larsen of the Navy also were stars, as

Brennan's Explanation.

The Brennan explanation of the Nil"
waukee defeat is interesting and per-
haps correct.
According to the Brennan version
Dempsey knocked Brennan down twice
in the second round but Bill refused to
stay down. In the fifth round Dempsey
almost fought himself out and Brennan
handed him a beating, so much so that
Dempsey walked to a neutral corner at
the termination of the session.
In the sixth round Dempsey crossed
q terrific right TO the chin and Bren-
nan in trying to make pass for Demp
sey's face slipped and crashed TO the
floor. The referee stopped the contest.
1t was discovered that Brennan had
broken a bone in mis- left ankle, Bren-
nan has pleaded ever since then for
return match.
After the Brennan tilt Dempsey went
down The line, defeating all who came
before him. winding mp in a blaze Of
glory at Toledo when he knocked out

came the champion. Previously he

TootbaIi's Great Progress.

The game has broadened and the
sphere Of effectiveness has broadened.
Progress and power no loAger are
confined 10 any one company. so football
is advancing by leaps and bounds and
has obtained a hold on the populace
which has made huge stadiums too small
and has putt the great players In an
intense limelight which some maintain
is offensive That, we fear. Is a good
deal of pose.
In our All-Eastern eleven we find n
representatives of seven teams-Prince-
ton, Harvard, Dartmouth, Syracuse
Penn State, Pittsburg and Boston Col
lege. Princeton, which we hold won the
championship of the East, naturally
leads, with four men. Penn State comes
next, with two. The rest have one
player each. Yale, it will be noted.

Yale at the t2ckles, Cranston Of Har-
ward and HeffelfingeT of Yale at the
guards. George Of Princeton at centre,
Poe of Princeton at quarter, and Lee.
Harvard Claiming Princeton, and
Ames, Princeton. as the backs. What
remarkable progress football has made
since that year! It's 4 progress which
puts that made in baseball in the shade.
Great GninNy OF stars.
In making up our three teams and
the honorable mention list we had to
consider the insistent and clamorous
demands made by tho prowess OF so
many players that It fairly made uS
dizzy. And we fear that with all our
attempt to be thorough we have over
looked not few who were entitled to
places. We may have erred. too. in our
Judgment on the relative merits of men.
For this we duly hes pardon.
At times we were thrown face to face
with the proposition as to what really
constituted the East In football. We
had to admit West Virginia, which
played Yale and Princeton, and we adj
mitted Maryland, which played Prince
ton and Syracuse. We did not consider
Centre College, Georgia Tech, WASH
ington and Lee or even Georgetown.
When II came to picking the line OF
the first team there was compare
lively little trouble. Most OF the men
stood out In bold relief and their right

II came TO selecting the backhelds OF the
three teams we were fairly up tree.
The backs always are in the llmelight,
There are four backs on every team. and
about sixteen times as many backs as
linemen hurtle into public notice. How
ever, the lineman Is getting his due
more and more every season, as the pub
lie Is learning fast to appreciate the
finer points of play among the forwards.
