PixIee Lauds Seniors.

HEAD COACH JIM PIxLEE, short
ly before the 1886 Colonials took
the field today, sized up the young
men who were about to play their
last game for G. w., saying:
Frank Kavalier, our captain, has
been steady, consistent performer.
He has suffered the handicap of in
jury during the last two years that
has kept him from showing his best.
Frank is about feet, IL inches, and
weights ITO pounds, Is an excellent de-
fensive back, probably the best back
field blocker on the squad and boy
whose morale is always high.
THE other senior backs-George
Jenkins, the quarterback, and Herb
Reeves, the fullback-both have been
Of major importance to our success
this year. jenkins performance over
a three-year stretch probably has been
at a higher level than any of our
other backs. He is fortunate enough
to be free of injuries from September
to December. He is an excellent de-
fensive back, fair passer, good ball
runner and good blocker
Herb Reeves has served his best in
his senior year; he probably is our
most valuable back, inasmuch as he
can run any one of the four backfield
positions without trouble He is a
good ball carrier, fair passer, a good
kicker in the pinches and a first-class
blocker. Herb packs more weight
than any of the rest of our backs
weighing out at 1872 and standing an
even 6 feet, and is fast enough to
Sun with the best We have.

Backfield Is Versatile.

NO COACH could hope for Q more
versatile backfield than Riley Of
Alabama, Dickens of Tennessee, Bryan
Of Tulane and Kilgore Of Auburn.
This unit has everything.
All four are exceptional punters.
Riley, Dickens and Bryan do the pass
ing for their teams. Every man Is
ball carrier of great ability and,
despite their other talents, are good
blockers.
Riley has been the spearhead of the
Alabama offense just as Bryan has
been at Tulane. The latter has no
peer as punt returner and Is one Of
the fastest men in the South. Dickens
has the uncanny ability to pass on the
dead run and is the type Of runner
who can cut back and slant without
losing speed. Not only is Kilgore .
splendid plunger, but he is the type
of fullback who isn't lost in the open
field.
This backfeld, operating behind
such q powerful line. would run most

the uncanny ability to get into the

are Jordan Of Georgia Tech. Shoe

The crop Of tackles was not as good
as last year when the Big Thirteen
boasted Patterson, Throgmorton

Nowadays the set-up is different.
Nearly all minor league clubs are
