HOW DOES This
LOOK FOR YOUR
CHAMPION TEAM?


several coaches and trainers he had
met had said about players on their
own and other teams with view to
mixing one of those mythical pills
on his own account. After wearing
several points off the pencil, he fin
ally reduced it to a choice % men,
the first eleven to be the first all
southern conference aggregation and
the second eleven to be team No. 2
of the same conference. And behold,
here they are:
First Team
Right end, Ratteree, Bisbee.
Right tackle, Cary, Douglas.
Right guard, Maloney, Douglas.
Center, Booher, Tucson.
Left guard, Flores. Douglas.
Left tackle, Abbott, Tucson.
Left end, Anderson. Tucson.
Quarterback, A.. Caid, Tucson.
Halfback, Miller, Douglas.
Halfback, Trammell. Tucson.
Fullback, Cunrnins, Douglas.
Second Team
Right end, Casey, Nogales.
Right tackle, W. Policy Bisbee.
Right guard, English, Tucson.
Center, Knox, BiSbee.
Left guard, M. Policy, Bisbee.
Left tackle, Fain, Nogales.
Left end, Franklin, Douglas.
Quarterback, Hood, Douglas.
Halfback, Hohstadt, Douglas.
Halfback, Matthewson, BiSbee.
Fullback, T. Caid, Tucson.
Ratteree is selected as one end be-
cause of his deadly tackling and his
ability to play the interference to
break up attempted end runs. He
also plays a nice offensive game,
particularly in taking out a tackle.
The other end position is given to
Anderson, of Tucson, who would make
an excellent running mate for Rat
teree Anderson has all the qualities
of a good end including a marked
ability in snaring passes.
Two Guards Douglas Boys
Those who have seen Cary play
need no reasons for his selection.
He plays his position almost per-
fectly and besides may be called upon
to carry the ball with considerable
frequency and for good gains. Abbott
of Tucson is another tackle who per-

is given the center position. He
plays q good game at tackle, but a
much better one at center and is
easily the best in the conference at
that position. He hardly ever throws
a bad pass and is demon on
defense.
There is almost enough good back
field material for two good teams
but the four men selected seem to
combination. The most important
quality in a god quarterback is cool
generalship. Butch Caid has that
more than any other in the con-
ference, besides being able to carry
the ball in no mediocre manner.
Trammell, selected for one halfback
position, is the best passer in this
territory. He also puts up a good
defensive game. Miller is given the
other halfback position on his general
ability. He passes quite well, carries
the ball exceptionally well and is
unquestionably the best safety in
the conference, running back punts
in spectacular manner and being
a deadly tackler. Cummins has a
considerable edge over all other can
didates for the fullback billet. He
is a consistent ground gamer both
on end runs and through the line:
his defense in backing up the line
is of college class.
The selection Of the second team
requires a little more study because
there are more men who are good
but not so outstanding, however, it
appears that this second team would
play a great game if trained as a
unit. Casey, of Nogales, is given
one end position on his ability to
tackle and grab passes; franklin, of
Douglas, gets the other berth because
of offensive ability The tackle jobs
go to Fain of Nogales and M. Policy
of Bisbee, both being above the aver
age at that work. English of Tucson
and w. Policy of Bisbee are selected
for the guard positions Policy being
being shifted from tackle to guard
because he is too good to be left
off.
For the backfield Hood seems to
be the second best quarterback in
the conference. He plas a good de-
fensive game and is aove the average
in receiving passes Hohstadt re-
ceives one halfback appointment.
When going good he is as hard to
stop as any man in the conference,
Matthewson plays a good game and
with another years experience should
develop into a star. Tom Caid Is
shifted from half to fullback because
