SECOND TEAM
RY FORD @. FRICK

Picking an All-America team
these days is so difficult as to be
Alinost impossible. The above
team is submitted as it stands,
without apology, not as an Off
cial AN-America but as o durn
good, representative football
eleven that will do until better
one comes along.
Most of the players named are
50 well known as to need no COM
ment. Beckett; Of California, at
guard Is one man on the team
who is not much publiciZed, but
advices from Herb Dana, well
known Coast referee, are to the
effect that Beckett, although he
plays on q weak team, is one Of
the greatest linesmen the coast
has ever seen." And Dana knows
his football players.
On the two teams Wash
ington State Is represented
by two players, NOtre Dame
by three, Alabama by two,
u. S. c. by two, and North
western by three.
In view of the fact that these
four teams are the outstanding
eIevens Of the country such allot-
nnent would seem justified. It's
q cinch these teams must have
as good as there is individually
else they could not have accom-
plished what they did as a unit.
The East has been must in
terested this season in the COM
parative merits Of Siano and
Ticknor at center. To this OBJ
servers notion land of course
such an opinion is entirely in
dividuaD Siano has outclassed his
Harvard rival by several para.
Eangs, both on defensive and Of
fensive play
The season has seen an abun-
dance Of good tackles, and q
wealth Of good ends. At both
end and tackle positions there
is little to choose between the
first and second team selections.
One tackle, Sington Of Alabama,
has stood out-the others are
about equal in ability.

Officials at Gcnzaga Prep are
ambitious. They are ever think
ing up ways and means to- bring
the best cut Of their scheol In
every branch Of endeavor.
Take the Tech game tomorrow,
for instance. Coach Orrel Nit
chell in collaboration with the
schedule-makers booked the Man
ual Trainers because # the ex-
perience he knew his football team
would get In playing an opponent
Of Techs strength.
The game is part Of what has
been the schools idea all year
to bring the best out Of program
which would help the institution.
It's sports in this instance.
GOnzaga has played an un-
usually strenuous schedule
this season. TOmOrrOw's con-
test with Tech at the Cen
traI Stadium at 3:15 o'clock
win close the start Of an aim
which is hoped win bring
benefits later on in other
branches Of endeavOrs.
Now, to get to the latest ANA
bition thought out by the Con-
zaga officials.
They plan to plow UP their
football field on Benning Road
Northeast very soon, in the idea
Of making it a better place to
play. It win be reSodded and
groomed for next years football
campaign. This means that no
baseball will be played on the
field. Officials might finally de-
eide to allow the team to play the
diamond game, however, II the
sod Is in fair enough condition
by spring. But it is doubtful.
Accommodations for real football
games is the chief purpose Of
this latest ambition, according TO
the officials. 1t is their plan to
build a clubhouse where all the
equipment Of the football team
can be kept, also a set Of showers
II the expense is not too great,
for that after-game rundown so
necessary in football. or any
/ sport for that matter.
| Should these plans materialize,
officials believe that many excel
Ilent games can be brought to the
field where they have not been
considered before.
Also teams win realize, IS
wen as the Gonzaga eleven,
that the field Is not much an
cut-Of-the-way place after all
with the additions.
Lack Of facilities has been the
drawback of the site heretofore.
Gonzaga has found it SO more
than any team in view Of It's
travels back and forth every
evening when practice was the
order Of things. With a well
constructed clubhouse. however,
with showers and lockers to keep
equipment, conditions would be
quite the reverse. Hail to the
ambitions Of the officials! May
Gonzaga have q clubhouse and
Ia good football team, and star
attractions, good games. etc.
| Tomorrow'S grid game with Tech
viii see an inspired Gonzaga
eleven in action. Coach Mitchen's Z
hopefulS have been very much
encouraged since their excellent
showing against Eastern. which
game resulted in only q 7-to-6
win for the Lincoln ParkerS.

little to choose between the men

Anyhow there's the team. It's
