n LltoUGH Penn this year won the
intercollegiate soccer championship,
incidentally for the fourth time, only
five members of the team are entitled to
positions on the intercollegiate
eleven.
I have made the selections with the
thought that the, team would be the one
l would pick to represent the league
against any other combination. The
second team comprises the first string
substitutes.
The controlling idea in selecting an
all-intercollegiate team Is not only the
players individual skill, but also his
capacity for, working with the other
members Of the team.
Cooper, of Princeton, is easily the
best goal keeper. His balance and
faculty of anticipating the possible
moves Of his opponents, combined with
his alertness and agility qualify him in
Il high degree. With backs in front of
and working with him such as Keyes
and Donovan the difficulty of getting q
shot at or through his goal would be
n matter requiring very high degree
of skill on the part Of the shooting
forwards.
Keyes ranks among the very top
notcherS as fullback. with Darrow as
Il close second. Reyes ability to kick
from any angle at any elevation and to
anticipate the moves of his opponents is
really remarkable. Darrow, while not
such sure kicker as Keyes, has great
er, versatility in his defensive tactics,
using the inside and outside of his head
with considerable effect.
In the halfback line three center
halves have been selected for the rea E
son that good center half can play any
of the three positions. l think these
three can. Burns, however, is the best
of the trio owing to his versatility in
offensive or defensive tactics. His cool
and steady anticipation of his oppo- i
nents' intentions, the interceptng of his
passes with his equally deliberate and
very effective feeding of his forwards
stamps him as the king in his position
in the intercollegiate ranks.
Hunt and Muech are very aggressive
halves with good containing tactics, but
not quite such good feeders perhaps as
Binns, but quite as effective with the
style Of play of their respective teams.
In the forward line Spencer stands
out clearly as the best. The diversity
Of his moves, his ability to play any

Probable Line-Up
at Tonight's Game
Quaker City

at Forty fifth and Market streets
against Dion's Quaker CITY team. This
game will prove one of the best of the
season. although the Yale sextet is not
as far advanced in practice as the
Philadclphians.
Yesterday afternoon the Yale team
had spirited workout. Not only spir--
tied but bloody. Captain Carson had
his thumb dislocated. the bone break
ing through the flesh. In spite of this
! injury he will start in tonight's game,
Another COREY incident occurred when
Moffatt. right wing of the Blue, wns
spcared in the face with stick. He
was badly cut. but Trainer Coe re-
marked: 20, that's only a scratch he'll
be all right"
"Fcrgic' Reed, who will start Mt

who wears glasses and docSn' use Il
guard for them. And the remarkable
part of it is that he was never yet hurt.
"No. | couldn't wear guards, ".hc said,

~ hockey is the toughest game OH

This is what +. II. Bangs. coach Of
the Yale hockey team. thinks of the
speedy contests that are played on the
mirr"rCd surface. You see" he con
tinued, "a ral hockey player has to
nave the speed Of sprinter. the dodg
ing ability of a halfbaCk. the sturdi-
ness of lincman and must have the
added asset of knowing how to skate
well. At Yale the student body is going
crazy over hockey. When we get our
own rink there will be at least three
hundred candidates out for the team.
And when that time comes hockey will
be made a major sport. We are hand-
capped by the fact that Harvard and
some of the other colleges have already
made hockey a major sport and have
their own rinks. We hnve won Il
championship, still they will not put
the game on n major sport basis until
we have our own rink. We expected to
have it in 1916. but it hasn't material
lied yet. Next year we hope to be able
TO play on our own ice, then we will be
in position to compete with the best
on equal terms"
Coach Bangs is very enthusiastic
over the prospects of the Yale team
in spite of the fact that the men have
to come to the Philadelphia Ice Palace
for their practice games.
The Blue will open its season tonight
