the best defensive end of the yea
Of forward passes.
The other end goes to Homewood
of Carolina State who is big, fast,
and the best offensive end of the
season. He is hard to circle, fights
interference well, and is very adept
at handling overhead heaves. Hard
Swick of Virginia Tech deserves
special mention.
The Tackles.
In lne tackle. position consider that
we have the most brilliant player in
the entire South Atlantic division.
: This individual is none other than
Lindsay Moor. of Washington and Lee.
/, He is not South Atlantic caliber, but
! All-American instead. Moore is
giant in stature, fast, and can handle
] himself well. He has the ability to
break through to lead line buck or
/, to break interference. He usually
beats his ends down the field under
punts. In addition to all this, Moore
II q great leader and for this reason he
- placed as captain Of the mythical
ieleven.
Summers, of v. M. l., is given the
other tackle, due to his great size and
| strength. These qualities, with his
unusual speed, for big man. aids him
in showing his great defensive and Of
fensive ability. Other good tackles are
weathers, Carolina State; Nisbet.
' University of Maryland, and Neese.
Roanoke College.
The GuarHs
There were no particularly brilliant
ksuards this season, and for this rea-
son, / am shifting Tilson, captain of
the Virginia Techs, and Hall, Of Vir-
ginia, to fill these two positions.
Tilson, Of Virginia Tech. is a particu-
larly brilliant linesman. He Is quick
in sizing up plays, a hard charger, and
very fast in running line interference.
He is also a punter and place kicker
of no mean ability.
Hall, of Virginia, was one OF the
main cogs in the University machine.
He is not big man. but fast and
aggressive, always hurrying the passer
Harrison, of v. p. 1.
The Center.
Hawkins, of Virginia, is given the
center pO5ltiOH lntTe were very lew
good centers in the division this year.
However, this does not cast any reflec-
ton on Hankins, for he was really the
keystone of the University line, being
an excellent passer and very strong
on the defense. Other good men were
Collins, Washington and Lee; Blount.
Carolina, and Baker Virginia Tech.
The Quarterbacks.
Such men as Witt, Virginia; Smith,
Hampden- Sidney; Lowe, Carolina; Wal
lace, Virginia Tech: Faucet, Carolina
State; Farley, ". M. l., and Jones of
Richmond University, would make any
team in the South Atlantic division
good field generals.
Leading this list are Lowe, Carolina;
Wallace, Virginia Tech, and Faucet,
Carolina State. All of these men pos
sess unusual ability, yet in all things
considered, they are about on a par.
For this reason and because the
quarterback of today is called upon
to share an equal part in carrying the
ball, 1 have selected Brewer of Mary
land University for the position. He
not only has a thorough knowledge of
the game. but is one of the greatest
punters and drop kickers in the game
today. Brewer is exceptionally strong
in both offensive and defensive play.
The Halfbacks.
In the writer's opinion. johnson of
Carolina, and Sutton of Virginia Tech,
stand head and shoulders above all
competitors. The former has been
rated as one Of the most brilliant re-
ceivers of the forward pass. He is a
great open field runner, strong on
tackle plays, and a clever handler Of
punts.
sutton, of Virginia Tech, is the won
der back of the South. Weighing only
kb0 pounds, he can do anything re-
uuired of q backfield man. As a bro
ken field runner, he has no equal in
I the division. He is a hard and sure
fackle. a clean passer, and his hand
ling of punts Is high class. Other good
haifbacks are, Bunting, v. M. l.; Tuck
ar. washington and Lee; Rinehart. Vir-
xinia: Gettle, Virginia Tech; Morris,
carolina, and Oppleman, Virginia.
Tho Fullback.
This position goes to Hess OF Vir-
Swinia Tech on account Of his versatility
and power. Hess was a good punter
could buck the line, forward pass. a
Great fnterferer, and one of the best
defensive players in the South Atlantic
division. Other fullbacks deserving
mention are. Mattox, Washington and
lee. and Parks Of Carolina State.
