Departing from the usual pro-
Eedure. The Washington Times has
enlisted the aid of the coaalles and
officials to select what can be
truly termed representative 1927
District All-High elevens. This
method gives consideration to every
player and his merits have been
weighed by competent judges.
The coaches know their own
players and also appreciate the
worth of players from rival schools.
They have seen these players and
have. formed opinions as to which
they deem as the foremost in the
eleven positions.
The officials, too. have more than
q fair idea as to the foremost
gridders, as they have either been
nearest to them on the field or
have seen them from advantageous
positions.
Players named on the first team
have received five points and those
placed on the second club were
given three points. Positions on
the first and second teams were
allotted according to the highest
points for each player.
The coaches who submitted
selections were Mike Kelley, Cen
trail: Hap HardeII, Tech; Dan
R Ahern, Western; Charlie GuyOn,
Eastern. and Lynn Woodwork,
Business. The officials who sub
mitted selections were Lieut..
Ernest e. Harmon, Edward
Towers and HObey O'Meara.
O'Meara officiated in but one
game, but he saw the majority
of the interhigh football contests.
/ The coaches and officials admitted
i they were stumped when it came
to naming the line, frankly stating
there was a dearth Of excellent
| linemen this year. They found it
comparatively easy to choose
backfield.

SCIENCE LIMITED
TO MATERIAL LIFE
Or. DrieSCh Sees Mortal Man
Unable to "Put Finger
on God"
BY the Associated p

BY the Associated Press
CHICAGO. January 26.-Science
will never be able to put its finger on
God, the chasm between the material
and the spiritual being too great ever
10 be bridged by the mind of man.
DR. Hans Driesch, philosopher of the
University of Leipzig, declared last
night in an address at Northwestern
University.
The science of psychology and
philosophy will never determine
whether the will of man is free or
not" he stressed. adding: There are
too many arguments on both sides. In
my belief it will remain an eternal
problem.
Men as Conscious Beings"
1--WE are conscious beings" he point
ed out in his argument for absolute
freedom of will. Consciousness with
out the power to decide, to change
anything, would be cruel luxury.
On the other hand conscience of the
feeling that we are doing right or
wrong, and that we can feel sorry, Is
an argument against absolute liberty
or freedom of the human mind"
Hypnotism and coueism, DR. Driesch
said, are firmly established in science.
Effect of "Coueism.''
"Coueism seemingly strengthens the
will, as in an actor to overcome stage
fright. by repeating a Willingness to
do thing" he explained.
"Hypnotism, however, is limited in
that no one can be hypnotized into
something that is actually evil. No
one without a conscious desire TO
murder can be hypnotized into COM
hitting murder with real knife or
weapon"
