charger, a great diagnostician when on
defense and sure tackler. His rang
ing qualifications cover an entire grid
iron. On attack he does much more
than merely to pass the ball.
HARPSTER-One of those quarter
backs who really are coaches on the
field. Slight of build. but all bone,
sinew and muscle. his ability as a
thrower of forward passes amounts to
sheer genius and with the ball in hand
he is dangerous runner. He knows
all the foot ball there is.
CAGLE-One of the great halfbacks
of all history. Fast, elusive, enduring
when loose in the open field it may well
mean touchdown. Besides he can
hit the line and as an interferer his
worth is well recognized by his fellow
backs
P. SCULI-One of those magician
halfbacks who can do anything with
a ball and does. A thrower CT passes,
a receiver of them, an elusive runner
MIZELL-Since the designation full
back means practically nothing these
days and backs technically 60 by num-
bers. MiZell is put into Tie so-called
fullback position. He can do every
thing the traditional fullback used to do
which includes, of course, interfering
for other ball carriers AS a ball car
rie. he is of the very highest class. A
great foot ball player.
In selecting an eleven on the basis
outlined above. it has been necessary for
me to eliminate some men who are at
the very top and who would seem to
deserve place on anybody's all
America. Such a man is McMullen of
Nebraska. AS an opener of holes on
attack and slashing tackler on de-
fense, McMullen of Nebraska is a truly
great guard. At times this season he
was the whole Nebraska line Weigh
ing 212 pounds and but feet inches
tall, he is one of those underslung
guards who combine the speed of light
ming with the power of a tractor.
In the final game of the season, Hoff-
man of California showed to advan-
tage as fullback, but until the West
Point game he had not stood out this
year as living up to his qualifications.
Robesky of Stanford in the Army game
showed himself to be a great guard, as
In fact he has all season. Some con-
slider him the peer OF Post. But the
writer does not.
Carroll of Washington is another
player who deserves special mention.
Playing on losing team, Carroll stood
out as the best backfield man on the
Pacific Coast. But the writer did not
see him and he is too dazzled by stars
he did see to yield them to Carroll.
The Roll of Honor.
The following Roll of Honor is as
comprehensive as it has been possible
for a critic who has journeyed some
ii 600 miles this season among foot
ball camps to make It:
