A wonderful offensive a giant on the defense and : irate placer of the pigskin. ,. lH never outplayed during the .. ,-iin, although pitted against ,i,, m the best men who played the • imi nt center. Keller, of Wis- uu-in and Routh, of Purdue, are a , ndm-Cul pair of guards. Harris, of I,; was given a place on the , • Western eleven by some ex- i i'i- but the general opinion is that ,-as not unite the equal of the two n ,<n who have been placed on the first eleven. Pontius Gets Place. Pontius, of Michigan, and Kirk, of Ion;, at the tackle positions, easily . ,e the peers of any man that ca- ,,i.(i it the tackle stations in the Wes: Both men were hard, sure is. both extremely fast in get- ■.•m (].,wn the field and neither failed t .ii ( illed upon to open a. hole in , rival line for their plunging halfbacks. At the wing positions, Huntington, ago. and Solon, of Minnesota, loomed up as the superiors of their rival.' Both played wonderful, con sistent games throughout the sea son. with the Chicago man showing slightly better than his Minnesota partner, through his ability to carry Tim hall through broken fields. Dorais at Quarter. Dorais, the Notre Dame quarter ly is regarded a» the greatest quarterback of the year—both in the East and the West. A wonder at Handling the forward pass, a heady field general, a sure,catcher of punts, a tine tackier and-a brilliant runner, lie belongs to the first eleven taking the position from Russell, the fast Chicago pivot man. It has been many years since the West hay* seen i my halfback that equalled Craig, the nighty Michigan baekfleld man. Hisj ; (Trifle line smashing and bis won- . :< rful ability in circling the ends was I largely responsible for Michigan’s ' tories. Norgren, of Chicago, an-. 1 ■ er marvelous player, is a worthy partner to Craig in the baekfleld. Selecting the fullback from three str-irn candidates»wa9 a difficult job. iienbi ib. of Notre Dame: Shaugh- !(•' ). of Minnesota, and Pierce, of i(ago, played wonderful games at The r positions irf the center of the bfu-ktield. but because of their slight superiority over Shaughnessy on the a f< rise Eichenlaub draws a place on the first eleven and Pierce on the sec- ! end eleven.

Hoi Battle Is Expected Saturday » -w tHKN Lew llardage’s al!-s'..i V/\/ football team dashes against the Soldiers at Pome De Leon Saturday afternoon they had better be prepared for a tough strug gle. Lieutenant Devore is putting the Soldiers through a hard work-out these days, and plans to have them in tiptop shape when the whistle blows Saturday starting the combat. The Infantry line is showing much strength, and Devore thinks with a strong line his boys will have a good chance to hold the all-stars. Devore himself will be at one of the tackles, which should prove a big help to his players. Devore was one of t lie* greatest tackles in history, earning a place on Walter Camp’s all-star American his last two years with the Army. 'fhe Soldiers also have several play- j ers who haverlisplayed great Individ - ! ual ability. Swartz showed last Sat- j urday against the Eleventh Cavalry | from Chattanooga that he < an be de pended upon at all times when han dling the forward pass, as he heaves the oval with wonderful accuracy. Time and again he threw the ball from 25 to 35 yards against the Cav alry for successful passes. B INGLE, the Soldiers’ end. is one of the most dangerous players in the South in kicking goals from place ment. Whenever the Soldiers have the ball within tKeir opponents’ 40- yard line. Bftigle can be counted on to attempt a boot at goal. The Sol diers are relying upon this youngster for a couple of field goals Saturday. The all-star line-up needs no intro duction. Kirk Newell, Homer Cook and Lewie Hardage will be in the baekfleld. Ray Morrison, the former Candy star, will he at quarter. This baekfleld should be able to rip up any line, and the fans should certainly witness some dandy line-plunging Saturday. Also Jewell was about the best player in the South the past sea son at circling the ends. The baek fleld players are all in fairly good condition, and should be able to pull through a full game I OPAL fan* are showing much in- terest in the game and a good crowd is expected at Ponce DeLeon Saturday. The opportunity to see so many star players on one team is a treat football followers do not al ways have a chance to see. Several of the players lia\e not been seen in action foi years, and their appear ance on the gridiron again is bound to bring back recollections of their former great play s. Rob McWhorter, Homer Cook and a couple of others have finished their college career, and this may be the last chance fans will have to .-ee them in action.

Dec. 3.-At 9:30 o'clock last night Johnny McFarland, cousin of F’ackev, came into The Ex aminer office arid announced that Emil Thiry was fired.

The price realized is un- dcjstopd to be |500. 3y “Chic" Evans. ^HE golfing business man has a peculiarly good feeling on the Monday succeeding a week-end spent in the enjoyment of his favor ite sport, lie may have gone to bed very tired the night before, but the fresh air and happy memories of a good game insure a good night's rest and he comes back to his work with new vigor. He is in high spirits £nd feels ready to meet anything that comes his way. Le may have left the office early on Saturday, tired and discouraged, with no interest in life, but he returns to it on Monday morn ing, exhilarated and happy, fully real izing how good it is to be alive in a world where there is so much to en joy—-an interesting sport with pleas ant companionship, and the line appe tite of the outdoor man. r PHERE is something verj restful . n * :i men a the arching sky. the sweeping wind, tees and greens and fairway. If the golfer is a good sport he remembers his good shots, lie dues not complain over his had ones, and he gently crows over the number of yards he outdrove Smith. In imagination he sees his shots flying safely over haz ards and lighting deftly within a few feet of the hole. * # • DERHAPS our golfer remembers the short putt t hat lost him the match witli his friendly rival, but there is no bitterness connected with that missed putt Just a little tem pering of the gentle glow of neigh borly competition. He knows that ordinarily he is a much better player than Smith. He has learned a great many new things about the game, and at luncheon he tells h^s friendly neighbor all about his shots. His friends should not be too hard upon this failing of our happy golfer. Ib is enjoying his game for the second time, and the retrospect is almost as pleasant as the original chase of the little white ball over miles of course under the open sk>. While those English poloists are preparing for another invasion it be hooves them to prepare for a soft spot on which to land. nate to jump on a ballplayer's spine when he asks for more pay. While big league magnates prefer to be amused by the Federal League, an in vestigation would reveal the fact that there is a distinct chill in the vicinity of their feet. A war with the Feds will meun that a lot of money will be spent, and we all know how the average magnate loves to spend money. One is not surprised to bear that Packey McFarland has agreed to take on Dan Cupid. Dan is a bantam weight. THIS NEVER HAPPENED.

Not that "it will make any differ ence in the baseball world, but Garry Herrmann is expedted to appoint a new manager this week. The Federal League has brought about at least one reform.
