coaches of prominent teams for
backfieid job, but the majority did not
vote in his favor. The lad has played
his first yea- in charging, sod-clip-
ping fashion. His nerve has always
been with him. Brewster's greatest
fault is that he would rather hit a man
with lowered head. a resounding
thump than side-step or stiff-arm and
go around.
Scott for Quarterback.
For the spectacular, an-important
position of quarterback. the coaches
decided upon Scott of Pittsburg Nor
mails.
In his first conference game of the
season with Washburn, Scott piloted
the Pittsburg men thru one of the
prettiest offensives seen this season.
Expert students of the game. ex-play-
ers former stars. said they never saw
as cool headed a job. Not a bobble
did Scott make. Despite the fact that
a certain amount of timidity must
have entered the hearts of the Pitts
burg men as they faced last years
champions none of them played as
tho they feared. And Scott less than
any. Blond-headed. smiling, the
snappy quarterback ran his team in
unbeatable fashion.
Injuries received in the Baker game
the following week kept Scott out of
state honors were not marred. The
games he played clearly proved his
worth.
Gross of Hays Normal, pilot selec-
tion for the second team. was good
pick. The undefeated Hays team owes
a good portion of its credit to the
heady pivoting of Gross at quarter
back. Cool under any circumstances
and a man who knows how to obey
orders from the coach. Gross quail
fled easily for the position.
We have finished with our remarks
concerning the choicest players de-
veloped in Kansas this year
They are without a doubt the cream
OF the conference. No one knows bet
ter than the coaches who train what a
man can do. Well bet our last cent
on their judgment
As to the third team. they are good
men. Some of them will not remain
on the third team selection next year
Advancement to second or first team
positions is assured them if best eff
forts are put forth.
Honorable Mention Men.
The honorable mention men de-
serve recognition. They were picked
from the wealth of good material. and
should have merited praise. OF course
every man on a conference team this
past season cannot hope to place.
Were that possible, the conference
could not hold its players from the
ever present hands of eastern colleges
Of larger enrolment.
But of one thing we are certain.
The Kansas Conference is accorded
far and wide, among FOWLER and
higher conferences, the distinction of
being one of the best governed, the
sportiest and productive of greater
players than any other SIMILAR confer
cnce of its size.
With the all-state pick accompany
ing, the colin closes its football slate
for the year. 1t has been a joy to
write reports of such games as have
graced the Kansas gridirons this year
Here's to next years success-at
least equal to this wears

RUM RUNNING BY SEA

There seems to be just enough fact back of the
stories of the use of great fleets Of vessels in the IL
.licit liquor trade to give a SAVIOR of credibility to
the yarns that are being spun. It is a fact that there
are ships operated in the business Of smuggling
liquor into the United States. A cargo valued at
something like 500, 900 was seized a few days ago
while it was being landed on the New England
Icoast, and this is only one of what is probably a con-
siderable number of such cases.
With certain facts to serve as a basis, imagina-
ton has been allowed free rein, and if we are to be.

Armada was not a circumstance to the fleets that
are said to be ready to sweep down on the Atlantic

Sofia, July 10.-(Mail. bulgaria
