for the recent season of 1856. AS
usual, the selections are based
upon the city'S high school foot
ball championship race. The team
that won the championship was
allotted four on each named, and
the third place winner was al
loted to the players named on the
actual teams, group of honor
able mentions was named in the
same proportions as on the teams.
Booker T. Washington High won
the city championship, Carver
was runner-up and Northwestern
