BY DICK MILLER

The honor roll of Indiana high
school football for 1894 is written
today as The Times announces its
annual all-state selections. Chosen
from a field of more than 5000 prep
players who performed on Hoosier
soil during the season just ended.
these 100 boys take a bow because
their gridiron achievements have
been outstanding.
It is only natural to expect that
the players, particularly those on
the first two all-state elevens were
members of eight teams which had
outstanding season records and
we're top contenders for the Indian
napolis Times trophy Triumph"
awarded last week to Muncie Gen.
tral-a team that hung up a record
of nine victories and was undefeated
and united throughout the 1884
season.
Center Has Bright Prospects.
Big Jim Agenbroad of Central
Catholic, Fl. Wayne, all-city team
captain of a city championship
team gets the center berth. With it
goes the opinion he will gain fur
ther honors if he attends college.
Satterf1eld, Muncie; Kovachi. Whit
ing, and Page, Linton, all were
stars.
Bykowski, big end OF the power
full South Bend Central team and a
member of the second all-state team
last year moves up notch. Scotty
Thompson, wing ace for Clinton,
and standout in every game his team
played, is another who climbs a
rung higher. They crowd out other
star wingmen, including Yeager,
Marion; VEGA, Manual, Indianap-
oils; Ridgeway, Wabash, and Lehr.
great defensive player from No
| blesville.
Miller, defensive power of Evans
vile Memorial, was one of the main
reasons his team was undefeated.
Huff was similar cog in the Mum
Gle Bearcet forward wall. If there
ever was wealth of good tackles in
the state in one year, this was the
year.

The same is true of the guards,
with such stars as Davidson, who
led Bicknell through an undefeated
season, and Captain Marty Lentsch,
leader of the N. J. H. S. G. cham-
pions. Central of South Bend, edg4
ing out Hape of Reitz, Evansville,
and Conrad of the undefeated De-
catur team, principally because the
latter teams did not meet the COM
petition encountered by Bicknell
and South Bend.
We present with pleasure what,
| in our opinion, is the Smartest back
field ever assembled in the history
of The Times All-State High School
Selections. Emmett Grove, relative
Of the famous Groves of Notre
Dame, was the ir1spirational leader,
the clever kicker, the marvellous
field general and the all-round
player that paced Jefferson through
nine victories without defeat. They
tied with Muncie for the North
Central Conference title and in two
seasons won II consecutive games.
Vincent Oliver, Whiting, even bet
ter than he was last year, when
he was first-team member, re-
tains his place. The third place
in the back field goes to John Nc
Mahon, Cathedral indianapolis,
city champion and defeated only
once. This young fellow could kick,
pass, run and--best of all-block.
Those who knew the weaknesses of
the Cathedral team must realize
just how much of one-man team
Mcmahon was.
Muncie wins the fourth back field
position. Jack Young, six-foot and
1877 pounds, great blocker, scorer,
left-footed kicker and southpaw
passer gets the honor.
