through the season undefeated and
secured early leads on its opponents.
He ran the ends, drove off the tack
les. or hit the line with equal sue
cess. Defensively he was one of the
best in Drake football history.
Joseph r'Red") Dunn of Marquette
is placed at quarter back on the
third eleven. Marquette enjoyed a
successful season and Dunn was
largely responsible for it's record.
The star of the Cream City ocllege
team was an accurate field goal kicker
and his uncanny ability to drive the
ball between the posts from difficult
angles made him a respected per
former.
Scherrer Of Nebraska is awarded
an end position ON the third eleven.
The Cornhuskers are generally con-
! sidered to be the strongest team in
the Missouri Valley conference, and
Scherrer was a great help in winning
this honor. He played consistently
all season. and against Syracuse and
Notre Dame played his best games.
! Hartley of Nebraska Awarded
Capt. Hartley of Nebraska is
awarded the full back position on the
third eleven. During the entire year
he was used TO hit the line, and he
seldom failed to make the required
yardage. In the first half of the
Notre Dame game he tore through
the Hoosiers for alrge gains. and was
instrumental in both scores. He scored
the first touchdown and tossed the
forward pass to Noble when the lat
ter ran for the second touchdown.
In addition he kicked both goals after
the t~ouchdownS. He was also a
strong defensive player.
As previously stated, there are num-
bers of players on smaller college
elevens who would have shone with
b~rilliancy had they been members of
larger university teams and received
the expert coaching and training. One
of these is kaplan, quater back on
the Hamline team of the Midwest con-
ference. This player has performed
consistently all season. and would I'M
doubtedly have been better known
had he played on a larger university
eleven.
Lombard Has Grid Stars
Lamb and Swanson of Lombard col
lege, one Of the undefeated minor col
lege elevens of the middle west. are
two players who would fit in oil most
any big university eleven. Both are
fastand clever, and above all, have
thar football sense which goes such a
long way toward winning gridiron
/ struggles nowadays.
Collins. the colored half back of
Coe college. another Of the indicated
minor college eleyens OF the section
which was ably coached by Moray
Ely. played sterling football all sea
son and was in a large measure re
Sponsible for his teams record. Col
Inns scales over 40 pounds and was
fast and elusive.
Capt. Mccarthy of st. Viator's was
It pleasing quarter back who did well
considering the support he received
in big games. Smith, Ohio Wesleyan
tackle. and Winter, half back on the
same eleven. are deserving of men
ton because of their general play all
season. Adams. center on the Knox
team, merits credit for consistent play
al year, especially in the important
game with Lombard.
Frederick. quarter back on the Brad
ley eleven of Peoria. was a brilliant
performer all season. 1t was his dash
through the entire Lombard team early
in the season which enabled Coach
Robertson's team to so through the
season undefeated. Bradley's game
with Lombard resulted in a 6 to u tie.
Pat Page Develops Half Back
Griggs. half back on the Butler
! eleven coached by Pat Page, is another
! player worthy of mention. Aside from
being a reliable field goal kicker,
Griggs is n general all around player,
| being fast and clever. He won the big
game against Wabash with three field
goals.
Western State Normal of Michigan,
coached by Milton OIander former Hi
nois player. boosted of some great
players in Redmond. the ENTER who
scaled 293 pounds, but was as active
as q player much lighter. Miller. an
end: McCann, guard, and Half Back
Potter. Dahlgren of Beloit was also
an outstanding tackle in the minor col
leges, while many others could be men
toned as a ineager reward for sterling
play throughout the season.
Coming back to the major iastitu-
items of the section, Paul Cashier and
Tom Lieb of Notre Dame should have
been considered for places IN the first
three All-Western teams had not in
juries overtaken them during the sea-
son Cashier was without doubt the
best punter in the middle west and ex-
pert in tossing and receiving forward
/ passes. Lieh, conference champion in
the discus throw, played tackle, but
suffered a broken leg in the Purdue
game early in the season.
~Sonnenberg of Detroit played a con-
sistent game at tackle and was a big
help to his team throughout the sea
son. In Detroit he is looked upon as
the equal of Voss and Ellis. two pow
erful forwards.
Aside from the players mentioned
from the Missouri Valley conference
schools. Schoeppel Of Nebraska. Web
Der of Kansas Aggies. and Lingenfelter
of Drake, were above the average
ends. Wienke of Nebraska. Nichols
of Kansas Aggies, and Bunker OF Mis-
souri, performed very ereditably at the
tackle positions. Marsh of Drake. Ed
monson of oklahoma. and Bassett of
Nebraska were other leading guards
in the section.
Oklahoma Has Leading Center
Schaefer Of Oklahoma was generally
