From a total recommended list Of
224 players submitted by board OF
coaches, NEA Service Tuesday an
nounces its 1884 All-America football
team.
Represented on the first eleven are
two players each from the Big Ten,
generally considered the toughest Of
the football leagues, the east. south
and Pacific coast. and one each from
the Rocky Mountain, Southwest, and
Big Six districts.
Carefully sifted from monumental
mass of opinions. believe this team
could take the field against any COL
lege or professional aggregation in
the country and chalk up a decisive
victory.
The NEA AllAmerica has size,
weight, speed. brilliant punting, and
field goal kicking. with an exception
al lot OF fine pasSers in the bacxfield.
On the first eleven, two men re-
ceived the unanimous vote of every
football coach and official contacted.
These We're Frank Larson, giant
end OF Minnesota. and George Bar
clay, North Carolina guard. Follow
i'll. close OH their heels in favor were
Bobby Grayson, switched to quarter
back, and Jim Moscrip, end, Of Stan
ford. and Willard Howell, Alabama

Grayson Gets Quarter Post
In only one instance has a player

1r Lizzie Weinstock. of Pitt, who had
100 many sponsors to be left out.
Even here, however. there is little
out OF character play for Grayson,
for the big coast smasher has been
calling signals for the Cardinals from
the fullbacx post since his sophomore
year.
Here is the team:
Quarterback Bobby Grayson,
greatest ball carrier OH tn, Pacific
coast.
Weighing 1875 pounds, Grayson is
rated by Lou Little. head coach of
Columbia, Is the fastest thing in a
football uniform today
Bearing out Littlc's assertion is the
statement Of Dink Templeton. stan
ford track coach. who had Bobby un-
der his wing as a trackman In his
freshman year
Dink says the Cardinal flash is the
fastest man in the world III either
sprint race or the hurdles"
All cooperating coaches who saw
him IN action state he Is the most
vicious line plunger they ever saw.
Forced to the second team is Fred
"Buzz" Berries, lanky triple-threat
man Of the Navy. Next in line is
little Jack BeynCn. the dead-eye for
ward passer who took that light ILL
nois team such a long way this year.
Enthusiastically Wilson. Southern
Methodist, and Willard Howell. Ala
bama.
Wilson, several prominent coaches
nave remarked, is the greatest ball
carrier in the country. bar none"
Howell was the spearhead OF the at
tack that carried Frank Thomas Ala
bama Tide to the top of the southern
heap. He does everything superla-
lively.
On the second team come Jay Ber-
wanger, the one bright spot in the
ordinary University Of Chicago team,
md Pug Lund, the Minnesota master.
After them are Jack Buckler, Army,
and Abe Mickal, Louisiana State.
The latter demonstrated his cour-
age off the field, too. when he ignor-
cd Huey Longs attempt to make him
a Louisiana senator.
.Weinstock Chosen
Fuilback-Izzic Weinstock, Pitts
burgh.
Here was a typical fullback if there
was one in 1884. A line-smashing
fool, Wcinstock mixed his power with
the dizziness OF a halfoack. It was
his threat between the ends that made
Pitts attack what it was, and he was
the pivot man in jock Sutherland's
surprise laterals. He added the trick
Of goal kicking to his repertoire.
Duane Puryis, of Purdue, rates No.
2 at fullback. tIe Is star IN every
department, and if it hadn't been his
misfortune TO be kept out of the Boil
ermakers' first two games Of the
year due to injuries. he might have
ousted Weinstoek from the first team.
Next In line is the King Kong of the
gridiron, Stanislas Kost.sa, the Min
nesota Steamroller. He does nothing
else but hit the Nne-but he doesn't
need to do much else.
Ends-Jim Moscrip, Stanford, and
Frank Larson, Minnesota.
Moscrip, besides being a terror on
defense and super blocker, is one
Of the greatest place kickers in the
country.
Larson, standing feet inches
and weighing 1876, plays a smashing
game and wrecks opposing offense.
He IS SO fast that he frequently
catches plays going around the 9TH
er end from behind.
Frank made MEAS All-America
last year and. in recognition of his
all-star play again this season, I am
taking the liberty OF making him cap
tain OF the first team this season.
Less well known generally, but
coming IN for sizeable support, were
Borden. Fordhar1, and Goodwin,
West Virginia, second team ends: and
Dornin. Navy, and Hutson. Alabama
Wingmen on the third team.
Cutter Can Box Those Ends
Tackles Slade Cutter. Of Navy,
and Cash Gentry. Of Oklahoma.
Gutter. heavyweight boxing cham
pion at the Naval Academy. was one
Of those aggressive tackles and the
mainstay Of the light Navy line. His
200 pounds was the big reason why
Navy had such a successful season. He
did yeoman service for the Middies

Gentry is the only triple-threst
tackle in the country. He IS an ace
