After much deiiberation the half
back jobs were given to Kipke, of
Michigan, and Martineau, of Mime

There are q dozen different kinds

lies ahead from the tee call for a
long, low ball; others may call upon
the player to elevate the ball con-

which may make the hole a blind

where some Of the, more expert tee
shots are called for-the dog log
holes. Here the player will wish
to make his ball hook or slice. In

In the selections I have made,
Brick" Muller and Gray are prob
ably as good as any two ends who
ever performed on a college gridirou.
Muller can do anything that any
other end Is capable Of and in addi-
tion is the most expert long distance
forward passer in the game today.
Gray, Of Princeton, played perfect
football all year in every depart
ment Of end play.
The ends on the other two teams.
Red Roberts, Of Centre. and Parr,
Of the Navy. as well as. Kirk, Of
Michigan, and Spillers,, Of Washing
ton and jefferson, were exceptional
and stood head and shoulders above
average players. Red Roberts ended
. spectacular career at Centre. and
although, used part of the time at
fullback, his real position is at the
end Of the line.
OF the tackles, Gulian Of Brown
country, while Below, Of Wis
Treat, Of Princeton, and Mulligan,
Of West Point, were invaluable to
their respective teams. Treat
should be the best tackle In the
country next year. This was his

Pfann. of Cornell. and Locke, Of
