been a source of the greatest trouble
to opposing teams. Usually three
men are assigned to play against him.

MELVIN COLLINS.
Melvin Collins, who has played left
end on the Varsity this year, has
shown an unusual brilliance in his
position. For two years Collins has

number of good ends on the squad
has made it tough for the candidates
in this position.
This year, due to the injuries to
backfield men, John Rhodes, an end,
was shifted to the backfield. This
gave "Collie" his chance. He took
full advantage of it and is now rec

AVARD MANDERY.
Avard Mandery, halfback, has
been a very dependable man on the
squad. Mandery is fast and works
hard. With more experience he
should make a brilliant back.

running interference for the other
backs has helped them to make many
long runs.

ball at Tecumseh and is a member of

FRANK MIELENZ.
Frank Mielenz, halfback, has been
kept out of the games most of the
season because of injuries. At the

plunger. His home is in Wahoo. He
is a member of Delta Tau Delta.
n
NORMAN B. CRAY.
. Norman B. Gray, tackle, has not
been given an opportunity this year
in many games, but he is heavy and
fast and should develop into an ex
cellent lineman.
Gray has relieved one of the reg
ular tackles in several games and
with more experience he should be a
very valuable man.

center, has been coaching the cen
ters and guards on the Varsity squad

ELBERT L. BLOODCOOD.
h W
Elbert L. Bloodgood, quarterback,
has been developing fast this season
and is now one of the most brilliant
backs on the Varsity. Bloodgood is
a good punter and drop-kicker. He
can also paaaor receive passes.
His returns of punts and his runs
from scrimmage have added materi
ally to the yardage made. With an
other year to play he should develop
into one of the most brilliant quar
terbacks in the country. Bloodgood's
generalship has been almost faultless.
His home is in Beatrice where he
played high school football. He is
a member of Delta Tau Delta.
