MEMPHIS, TBJNN., Dec. 3.—An

deal was for a cash consideration. How
ever the amount received was not made

lease of Newton Is merely the begin

backfleld. Ray Morrison, the former

The Infantry line is showing much

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 the
greatest tackles in history, earning a
place on Walter Camp's all-star
American his last two years with the
Army.

THIS NEVER HAPPENED
There lived two football c.rperts once
who startled all the earth :
It teas the most peculiar stunt since
football had its birth.
The two had never met before, nor
knew each other's name,
Hut when they picked\ their alt star
teams they picked the very
same.
r-w^VHE golfing business man has a
s peculiarly good feeling on the
Monday succeeding a week-end
■pent in the enjoyment of his favor
ite sport. He 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 and
feels ready to meet anything that
comes his way. He 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 fine appe
tite of the outdoor man.

In spite of the fact that a million

THERE is something very restful in
A a mental picture of a golf course
—the arching sky, the sweeping wind,
tees and greens and fairway. If the
golfer is a good sport he remembers
his good shots, he does not complain
over his bad 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.

with the Chicago man showing
iightlv better than his Minnesota

hack, is regarded as the greatest
quarterback of the year—both^In the

hicago pivot man. It has been
many years since the West has seen
: ny halfback that equalled Craig, the
mighty Michigan backfleld man. His
“Trifle line smashing and his won
derful ability in circling the ends was
argely responsible for Michigan's
victories. Norgren, of Chicago, an
other marvelous player, is a worthy
nartner to Craig in the backfleld.
Selecting the fullback from three
mdidates was a difficult job.
''ichenlaib, of Notre Dame; Shaugh-
*ssv. of Minnesota, and Pierce, of
hicago, played wonderful games at
heir positions in the center of the
'tokfield, but because of their slight
