football eleven had field day
with the Army, but the coach or
the Californians acquired a healthy
respect for Christian Keener eagle,
halfback ace and captain-elect of

the Army redhead as the best back
field player he has seen on either
side of the continent.

Of great players. no mistake.
Carroll Is bigger and heavier,
but eagle is niftier. Carroll is a
great straight ahead runner and
eagle is probably better in a broken
field. The Washington player is
the kind that never loses ground.
You can always count on him to
make a gain of some kind, but
probably eagle could do the same
under similar conditions. The Army
back takes more chances.

The: curtain will be dropped

zaga and Dewitt Prep tangle
at 2 o'clock in the Clark Grif-
fifth, Stadium for the prep
school title. This is the an
nuaI grid battle between these
rivals and their game tomor-'
row should result in warm
affair.
Gcnzaga possesses the more i'm
pressfve record, but Dewitt. Prep
hopes to come out of it's slump and
bowl over the Eye-Streeters. It is
prined for a sruelling game and in
tends to make the Eonzagans step
fast.
Cuach Jim McNamara has
spent many hours with the De-
witt SQUAD this week and has
given them added labors. He
wants to have his players In
fhe best mental and physical
shape to combat the Purple
wearers.
Only two starting positions in the
Dewitt, Prep lineup are uncertain.
These are center and right guard.
Cummings, a 120pounder, and Gar
lagher are favored for center, with
CUMMINGS most likely to start. The
latter is small, but is reported TO
have real football ability.

PLAYER AWARD
CR|T|S|zED

First reaction to the choice of
Sunny Jim Bottomley as being the
player most valuable to his team
in the National League is not one
of praise. Pittsburgh riddles the
way the votes were cast, chiefly
because BottomIey was rated as
being worth more to the Cardinals
than Pie Traynor was to the Pirates.
A few words of commendation for
the judges who voted Burleigh
Crimes as ranking third were noted,
but otherwise the award is not
popular. even though the winner,
Sunny Jim Bottomley. personally is
we'll liked in Smoketown.
'"This boy scout award"
writes one critic in the home
of the Pirates, "is not as pop
ular as it continues each sea-
son. The idea of giving the
81 900 purse to one man, who
won by possibly a vote or two,
and awarding the second and
third men nothing is not to be
applauded.
For some reason the voters con.
tinue to overlook the value of Pie
Traynor, the Pirate captain. You
cannot convince Pittsburgh sup.
porters that Bottomley should re.
ceive twice as many ballots as Pie.
Take Traynor out of action for so
games and omit Sunny Jim for a
similar 1eriod and what would he
the effect?
