PICKS TEN BEST
 HANDBALL PLAYERS
Student Of Game Names Leaders
 On Courts Of Y. M. (, A,

Handball fans in general have long been debating the ever present question of supremacy at the local '. M. c. A. courts and many have, at different times, named the ones they thought were to be counted one has heretofore officially named the leaders because of the danger of being buttonholed by some rabid fan or player wanting to know where he got his power.
 The other day, one of the vet erans, a man who has not only played the game but has made a study of it, was talking to the local secretary and he was asked to sub- init a list of players whom he con- sidered the best in the game today.
 Promptly the answer came back in the form of list. He explained, in making the selections, he took into consideration the physical and mental equipment necessary, agility, endurance, generalship, dexterity with both hands, persistence and handball brains. The list according to the ratings given the players is as follows:
 1, Henry Dressel 2, Joe Herg- strom; 3. Timothy Clare; 4, G. An derson; 5, Dave Dunn; 6, Dave Was kowitz; T. Eddie Mag; s Will Green stein; 9, NJ. Rosenberg, and 10. Louis Vogel Honorable mention is given to the following in order: 1, J.. Roche; 2, E. Strong; 3, C. Hawk ins; 4, J. Cianci, and 5, w. Mangan.
 As is to be expected there are many who will be of different opin- ion concerning these selections. be- cause there are over 200 who are playing the game. In giving the req sons for selecting Dressel as the head of the list, the veteran stated that three times he captured the singles championship of the state and he possesses everything that goes to make first class player. Joe Herg- player at the "Y". He has experi- ence and fair right hand. He holds second position only by hair. Clare is full of pep, has persistence. stamina and a good right hand. He goes after everything and usually gets it.
 Anderson's favorite weapon is his right hand and he murders the ball if he gets a shot. He has height and reach but lacks stamina. Dave Dunn in a canny artist with both hands but he is handicapped with a bad foot and age. Dave can make them all step and his ability to play a mans weakness makes him a con- stant threat.
 Waskowitz' confidence is supreme but his weight is a handicap that is hard to overcome. E. Mag has slipped badly because of age and lack of condition. He is a good two- handed player and full of tricks. Greenstein, after sliding back, is gradually pulling towards the top. Lack of condition and tough com- petition has held him down. Rosen- berg could be among the best if he didn't loaf so much. He lacks the competitive spirit. He has good right, a weak left and his condition could be improved.
 Lou Vogel has competitive spirit and stamina and is the best volleyer at the "Y'. He lacks control. ex- perience and the ability to place his shots.
 The honorable mention list is top ped by Joe Roche who is by far the best two-handed player at the "Y" but lacks good condition. E. Strong is good portsider but is weak with his right. He is young and has plenty of time to improve. Hawkins is a good doubles player but has chances to improve. Cianci is good but lacks experience. Mangan. q wonder in his youth, is victim of age and condition.
