Elizabeth's is best in name, and. most important of all. each name contained only four vowels. The perfect football player for this team would have a name of 13 letters containing no vowels, like this Dzyxksnmvchc. Now.

it is quite true that Sabas-teanski. the Fordham center, has 12 letters in his name, but in the matter of consonants he is tied with Coccodrilli and Domnanovlch at seven each. Therefore the center position was awarded to him. He and Alexandras: os. the Temple guard who also has 12 letters In his name, are definitely the stars of the team.

Filipowicz of Fordham received serious consideration for fullback against Szymakowskl of Lehigh, but while your agent still was undecided between the two he met a telegraph operator who had stationed Jiimself in a tavern and was seeking surcease from sorrow by looking through a glass darkly. Asked to explain his despondency, he said: "I worked the Lehigh game today and mispelled that Szymakowski's name three times In 200 words." That clinched the fullback Job for Szymakowskl. Altogether now, let's practice describing one play in a game: "Pieculewicz, operating In the T-formation. handed the ball to Bili-kiewlcz who lateralled to Szymakowskl. Then Szymakowskl threw a 25-yard pass to Kucrynskl who ran for a tochdown behind some brilliant blocking by Kaczorom-skl and Sebasteanskl.

Alexandrakos converted." the White Division. Individual Averages Green Division By Staff Photographer. Ave You are now reading what is known in the newspaper business as a scoop our first All-American football team of the season! This team could fool anybody. It would be particularly effective in fooling the gentlemen up la the radio booth who would be trying to broadcast an account of the game. After covering one game played by this team, sports writers and telegraph operators would never forget the experience.

Various persons use various means to choose their All-American teams. Some spend hours studying the statistics, comparing yardage gained, passes attempted, passes completed, field goals kicked and yards yielded by linemen. Others take Into consideration such factors as how the player does in the big game of the season and how much he contributes to the morale of the squad. None of that stuff for me. I just walk up to a selected list of radio broadcasters, telegraph operators, and proof readers in newspaper offices and ask this simple question: "Who are the toughest football players In the country?" From their answers I select my All-American.
