cultleS ana problems In
i selecting an all-high school
foot ball team and one of
the biggest is that players of
lesser ability sometimes will stand
out above others with more &C
tual assets because of being with
O winning team.
This, no doubt, was the case this
FAN in connection with the Tech team
that walked OF with the high school
championship, not because 1t had so
many better players, but to tell the out
and-out facts about the matter, because
it displayed q much superior brand OF
team play and as varied an attack as
ever has been uncovered in the title
series.
It was team play and its varied at
tack, well planned and finely executed.
that enabled Tech to make its grand
slam in its four games and to make
nearly every back on its team look like
q real ball carrier. Had some of the
players on the other teams in the series
been cog In the Tech machine they
doubtless would have waltzed into all
high honors.
Four Teams Represented.
All-high players, however, are chosen
on what they did and not on what they
might have done under other ctrcum-
stances, so Tech gets seven places on
The Stars first all-star eleven. Eastern
has been awarded two and Central and
Western each one berth. Business alone
Is not represented on the team.
While z Of the 10 games in the series
were decided by healthy margins, the
series did not lack for drama. 1t
teemed with stirring runs, blocked
kicks, intercepted passes, bullet-hke
shots through the air, booming kicks
and all the other thrills that 60 to make
the modern gridiron game the dazzling
show 1t has become.
It became apparent in the f1rst game
of the series, when Tech routed Bush
ness, 80 to o, that 1t was going to prove
extremely difacult to prevent the Gray
from gaining its third straight undis-
puted championship. AS the series
progressed, and Tech continued to
sweep through its opponents interest In
the games waned. Then Eastern came
through with q stunning 1870 victory
over Central that electrified the fans.
Interest famed anew. Some thought
the Light Blue had q real chance to
hurl back the sweeping Tech machine
when they met in the final and de-
Gliding game. For the first half Of the
battle e appeared that prognostica Gators
had the situation sized up correctly.
Eastern, fighting like mad, contrived TO
hold Tech to q SIS tie for the opening
swo quarters. In the second nan;
with q mighty attack by ground ana
air, swept through the battling East
erners to an easy victory.
Reichu,an Best ball Carrier.
Though there were . few other backs
who showed dash and nre, no team
had n Rroup behind the line that ap-
nroaehed the standard set by the Tech
bau carriers. In the blond speedster,
Al Reichman, Mckinley unquestionably
had the best oval-to&er In the series.

Jack Rhodes of Tech, Morris Wolfe

Bob Fletcher Of Western, who proved
he could hold down line job capably
