The Seattle star. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1899-1947, 1923-11-07

Ington was again able TO keep at the
top OF the heap.
nlll Mnttsons place was ably filled
by Pete HUSKY. diamond In the
rough. and Wayne sutton. a product
OF Lincoln high school. one OF the
clevarcst onda that oyer wnra q
Washington suit. Royal Pullen,
Broadway high school star. and
brother Of tho faInous Dan pulion
OF Washington and Army football
fame. filled tho shoes OF Charles May
and kept tho name OF Pullen among
washlngton's famous.
II was thought that tho ono place
that would bo weak would DO that Of
center. but the wise ones failed at
first 70 appreciate tho capabilities OF
young Revan pfcAly, a youngatcr
from broadway hlsh school. Attic
weighing barely isS pounds Presley
had "A fighting heart and was an ex'
pert passer. Few yards were made
By any opposing team thru tho cen.
ter OF washlngton's line.
The bactficld proposition was the
place that gave the most trouble and.
Il looked az first as tho our scoyins
powers wonla be weakened by the
loss Of Muclslcstonc, Doble again
showed his power as a developer OF
men and II was but a few weeks be-
fore he had a pony baekficld that
was fast. clever and had a punch.
Walter Wand developed after his
first year and was n dependable man
Ia a pinch. Blll Cook. who had been
drilling on the scrubs for two years.
was given his chance and lived up
10 his reputation for following tho
ball and plunglng into the line. Bill
Cahili. weighing about iso pounds.
played second 10 Fred Sparger at
snllbaek and could hit Ike a man
weighing 200. Roscoe Pike. ancihsr
Lincoln high school boy, showed hnt
his school training was OF tho right
kind aud was used at halfback.
The real find OF tho season came
in the person OF Rex Hoscly. player
little known to former Washington
students because he played only q
part OF one season and then was lost
on account OF scholastic work.
Hoseiy had more possibilities an an
open field man OF any player ] have
ever seen. He could run Ike a deer
and was a difficult man to tackle
because OF his lodging and peculiar
running. Football lost a real star
when he left tho university.
Like previous yearp, we allowed
very poorly in tho first practice
game. barely winning over the fast
Lincoln high team by tho poor score
Of 20 10 0.
Then came Puget Sound university
at Tacoma. where. after very poor
start in tho first half. the team re
covered and rolled up n score Of 81
10 0.
washington players. students and
fans got tho thrill OF their life dur
Ing the next game. Whitman had
always caused us trouble and this
time II looked like IT was very seri.
GUS for Washington. They battied
like little giants and at the end OF
the first half the score stood 9 to Q,
with Whitman playing better ball
than washington. Doblc was more
nervous than any OF us and between
halves he showed for the first time
his true spirit as n man. He appre.
clated our position and instead Of
going after US in his old rough and
ready style he was very considerable
Of each man, how he felt. II he
could do anything for him. He treat
cd us like men. I'll always remem.
Der that OF old Dobie. He was truly
afraid Of the outcome OF the. game
and didn't want 10 make II appear
that he would Jump on us when we
we're down.
The next half was like n night
mnre. We were lucky to win. Wash.
lngton fumbled buck OF their own
