surprises of the season when Xen
Scott's pupils defeated Pennsyl
vania 9 to 7. Coming directly after
Penn's decisive defeat of the Navy
It. was ono of the blggestupsets of
the year.
In the west, Michigan shared the
championship honors of the "Big

Michigan has ono of the best teams
In the country. Vanderbilt held
Michigan to a scoreless tie.

Is customary when picking all-star

on more placers for their first and

most shifted about player In south

others at guard and tackle, while
many believed lie would do his best
work-at fullback. Regardless of
