was captain of the team in 1920. In
both years he played a steady. aggres-
sive game. For his weight. Wittmer
Is one Of the greatest centers the
game has produced. During his
sophomore and junior years he played
fullback. In his senior year he was
shifted to center. During that Sum-
mer he taught himself to pass by con-
slant practice with foot ball at odd
moments. He got so accurate he
never made a poor pass all season. On
defense he was tower of strength.
and was particularly effective out of
the line. He was great center with
only one years experience at the posi-
tion. Mcmillan had the advantage of
at least 80 pounds on Wittmer. And
this is the only reason l have given
him the call.
Hart and Keck Are Guards.
I have selected Eddie Hart. captain
Of the 1911 team, and Stan Keck,
leader of the 1921 eleven, to fill the
guard positions. Hart played tackle
and halfback at college. but his real
position should have been guard. He
was one of the strongest men who
ever. has played foot ball+--with a ter
rife charge. keck was great tackle
and could play guard equally as well.
Curtis McGraw. captain of the 1919
team, and Mel Dickinson, leader in
1922. were good guards. as were Dick
Baldwin and John Davis, guards in
'25 and '26: Herb Dillon. captain in
1905. and Tom Wilson, guard in 1910
and 1911.

NAMED BY BILL ROPER

on the 1905 team: Puffy Bigler. a
slashing tackle in 1919: Stan keck.
captain Of the 1921 team; Herb Treat
Of the 1922 undefeated eleven. and
Bob Beattie. tackle in 1924. For all
around ability l would select Keck
and Beattie. Keck is the greatest Of
fensive linesman / ever have seen.
except 1 think the team would be
stronger with keck at guard and
Treat at tackle; l doubt II there ever
has been his e~ual In the history OF
the game. Beattie is close second
to Keck. His play against Harvard
and Yale in 1924 was an inspiration.
In his sophomore and Junior year
Beattie played in the back field. Had
he played in the line during his en-
tire undergraduate days there is no
telling how good he would have been.
Herb Treat was a great defensive
tackle--there was none better. For
his size Rigler was a wonder. He
weighed just 165 pounds against Yale
at New Haven in 1919. Jim Cooney's
name always is associated with
Princeton's tackle play. He was
member of the first team I coached
and a sterling player on defense and
attack.
Winn and LeGendre for Ends.
For the end positions ] would
select Winn and LeGendre. The lat
ter played on the 1920 team. He was
a beautiful defensive player and very
fast down the field on kicks. Jack
Winn, who has coached the ends at
Princeton for several years, was as
good a PLAYER as he is a coach and
that is saying lot.
l would choose from wealth of
material a backfield composed Of
Caulkins, quarterback; Jake Slagle
and Maury Trimble, halves, and
Ralph Gilroy, fullback. Caulkins,
quarterback on the 1925 and 1925
teams, is the best field general I ever
have coached. He is a sure punt
catcher and a fine interferer. Slagle
and Trimble cannot be improved
upon for the halfback positions. They
both can run, kick and pass. This
would give the team two triple-threat
men of exceptional ability. Ralph
Gilroy. fullback on the 1920 and 1921
teams, was a splendid line bucker and
a fine interferer. He always could be
counted on to gain couple of yards.
His selection would give the team
the necessary weight and interfering
strength.
/ have coached so many sterling
ends and backs that it is impossible to
name them all.
