Berwanger of Chicago was awarded the Douglas Fairbanks Valuable Player" trophy in 1935 and Hamilton of Stanford earned the honor in 1934. This year the award goes to Sam Francis of the University of Nebraska. The football players from more than 94 universities adjudged Francis the "outstanding player" of the 1936 season.

He w'as given that honor, not by I coaches, the press or the Sunday morning quarterbacks, but by the I football players themselves the men who know' by actual bodily contact the value of every player that performs on the gridiron. This fact was disclosed here today by Norman L.

(kimpiles Returns. After compiling the returns of more than 1,498 players that rep; resented 94 universities and col- leges, Francis was awarded the honor. The Cornhusker fullback led all rivals with a total average of 97.85 per cent. This as the I highest percentage ever reached by any player since the aw'ard was first given in 1931. Ernie Pinckert of the University of Southern California won it in 1932; Lund of Minnesota I in 1933; Hamilton of Stanford in 1934, and Jay Berwanger, Chicago, in 1935.

Every fundamental necessary I for the position played by the I players who were nominated this I year was weighed carefully. Sam Francis was chosen over Gaynell Tinsley, Louisiana State end; Clarence M. (Ace) Parker. quarterback; Ed Widseth. tackle from Minne.sota, and Ray Buvuid, Marquette halfback.

Sam Earns High Rating. As a fullback, Francis wa.s judged for his speed, running interference, blocking, ball-carrying (dodging and plunging) receiving forward passes, forward passing, defense against passes, defense against running attack, diagnosing play, agre.ssiveness and kicking. In most of these he was rated above the 95 per cent mark Of the 127 opponents who played against Sam Francis, the final tabulation showed that 126 of them rated him above all the other players they met during the year. This brought his vote percentage to a total of 99.2 per cent. In tabulating his fundamental percentages he was given a total of 94.51.

The final percentage of 97.85 was reached by adding the votes and fundamental picrcentagcs and then dividing them by two. Tinsley Second. End Tinsley of Louisiana Stale gave Francis the only serious competition for the honor. His combined percentage was 96.01, Larry Kelley, the football from Yale, was far dowm the list. Parker.

To gain permanent pos.session, the trophy must be won three times by the same school.
