DOZEN MEMBERS OF
NOTRE DAME SQUAD
END GRID CAREERS
Carberry, Cashier, Lieb, Cot
ton, Thomas Decree and
Oberst Included.

An even dozen members OF Notre
Danes fourth wonder football
squad. which brings its season TO an
end at Nebraska today. will finish
their careers as wearers OF the blue
gridiron jersey OF the Irish this af-
ternoon. OF that number. six Of
them are men who have held first
string berths at one time or other
during the present season.
The players are Capt. Glen Car
berry, Paul Castner, Fod Cotton,
Eddie Decree, Tom Lieb. Frank
Thomas, Gene OberSt, Mickey Kane,
Neil Finn John Flynn. Bill Voss
and Les Logan. All OF them are
seniors with the exception of Lieb,
and he will not be eligible next year
because he played one year at St.
Thomas college. Minnesota.
In the course OF the year it has
been frequently said that the Irish
have a sophomore eleven" but
when it comes to figuring it out,
there were more veterans on the
squad than a first glance showed.
To Miss Carberry
The departure of Capt. Carberry
is one that will be felt most because
of the leadership qualities which the
Judge" possessed. There were 9TH
er ends on the squad who could
grab passes more easily, but none
who equalled him in defensive play
His understudy during the year has
been Paul McNulty, and TO him Will
undoubtedly go the captains wing
position next fall.
Fod Cotton at left tackle is a man
who will be missed more than the
average spectator suspects. Cotton
has been consistent player
throughout his college career but,
not being of the fiashy type, he has
attracted but little attention. The
big. goodnatured fellow has been
working with Gus STANCE during the
year in an effort TO teach an apt
pupil He is TO be back next year.
Eddie DEGREES loss is the loss of
a powerful guard and a beautiful
punter. Eddie was out for a while
during the season, but managed to
get back for the important games
when he showed his true worth by
ripping up opposing lines with regu-
larity. Noble Kizer looks like his
successor.
Liebs Value Recognized
Tom Lieb has long been out of
the Irish lineup because Of the
broken ankle he got in the Purdue
game and though he played very
little during the year, his value
was recognized in the brief time he
was active 1t was hard for Notre
Dame TO lose Tom for the year, but
IL must have been harder for Tom
because he will not be able to play
next year.
Gene Oberst, the man who bore
the brunt Of Toms burden during
/ the year. will also leave the squad
bv graduation. The development
of Oberst was one OF the outstand-
ing features Of the Irish season, and
il is to his credit that he filled the
tackle Job in excellent style. lie
came through when he was needed
most.
Lose Greatest star
Notre Danes backfield loses It's
greatest star-Paul Cashier. It is
almost needless TO mention Paul'S
accomplishments during the year
/ He did practically everything a foot
ball player can be expected to do
and was most certainly in line for
all-American honors when Butler
heavyweight fell on him Nov. Is
and kept him out of the last two
! combats. Cashier was Notre Danes
! star Of 1922-the football world VIII
! give testimony to that.
! The other Notre Dame men who
leave include Frank Thomas, the
quarterback who showed flashes OF
brilliancy despite the handicap OF
a permanent injury; Bill Noss, q
! mogts reliable center; Mickey Kane
who showed St. Louis more than a
few things at halfback; Neil Finn
who worked successfully at guard
and Les Logan. a quarterback who
seldom got into a game but who
drove the seconds against the varsi-
ty night after night.
! To these men NOtre Dame must
| say goodbve-but in the history OF
! her football achievements they VIII
! long be remembered.
