 t1EA Service Sports Writer All America once again halls AL A1nefica men of footballl Prisoners of prestige, MEAS All-Americas oi this fall got there the hard way did thorough and splendid joh all the way along the route. Tn most cases, press comments and h0nOrs won in 1887 made them marked men. Opponents pointed for them double and triple-teamed them but they went right ahead and played their game a game tops in any company. Ii there was any change in their fire, 1t was because of sophisticated damper that comes with fineSSe. They were more than rugged indi- vidualists. Several were stars on a star studded team. Yet they we're satisfied to bury their glamor under a blanket of team play. The great majority of football heroes do not crave headlines.
 MEAS 1888 All-America men were smart, keen, and capable truly finished football products. Praise and fanfare did not blur their vi- sion, or swell their heads. They showed rare sense of values. No one of them had bad day. They let nobody down.
 So, all America once more halls All-America men of football!
 Three of this years first team are of the east. The middlewest, Mis- Souri Valley, and south get two posts each, and the outfit is rounded out by one athlete from the great south west and another from California. Davey OBrien Greatest Passer
 In History of College Football
 This years All-America backs are David O'Brien of Texas Christian, George Cafego of Tennessee, Bob Macleod of Dartmouth, and Mar shall Goldberg of Pittsburgh.
 The ends are John Wysocki of Villanova and Waddy Young of Ok 1ahoma, the tackles Alvord Wolff of Santa Clara and Ed Beinor of Notre Dame, the guards Ed Book of Iowa State and Ralph Heikkinen of Mich igan and the center Dan s(Tiger) Hill of Duke.
 O'Brien crashes the All-America despite the fact that he weighs only 150 pounds. The Texas Christian quarterback was vastly more than the greatest thrower of forward pass in the history of the college game. There were few better ball carriers and no better safety man. Irish Davey kicked exceptionally well. As for his passing, he com- pletsd 79 of the first 138 he threw this autumn. for a total of 1879 yards. Fifteen of his passes rang the register for touchdowns without further ado. He made the COW coun- try forget Samuel Baugh.
 Cafego halls from Scarboro, w. Va, which is small mining camp. He wasn't sought after by any school. His high school coach called Tennessee coaches ., told. them he had placed the boy on a bus and asked them to look after him when he. arrived in Knoxville.
 George CafegO Ran Away and Hid In Vols Victory Over Alabama
 Indifferent in practice as fresh- man, Cafego ran wild when he got in scrimmage. Maj. Bob Neyland said: "Well, that fellow can run" Later he remarked: Why, that fel- low can tackle" Then he learned that Cafego could pass, kick, and was a great defensive player.
 George Cafego is the finest all- round player in the football history of the University of Tennessee. He is only 20 years old, stands feet II, and weighs no more than ITO pounds, but runs with the power of a 00-pounder. He practically ran away and hid in the Volunteers smashing victory over Alabama.
 Goldberg, perhaps the finest run ming back in the land a year ago, switched from left halfback to full back this season at the request of his Pittsburgh teammates. The Elkins, w. Va, lad turned out to be as fine a blocking fullback as he was a running back. The Partners were not beaten until a knee injury placed him on the sidelineS.
 As a sophomore. Goldberg served notice of his ability to do something besides carry when Dr. Jock Suth-
