On Star Eleven
Petlcn, Illinois, and Elliott of
Winoonsin Selected As
Halfbacks on 1921
Squad.
By WALTER ECKERSALL.
Following a successful western con
ference fool ball season, featured by
tbe victory of Chicago over Prince
ton in one of the most important in
trrsectional struggles ever played by
a Big' Ten eleven, and the defeat of
Ohio State by Illinois in the biggesjt
upset of the season, which gave Iowa
the undisputed championship, it is
customary to select the leading play
ers for honorary or mythical elevens.
' While some of the elevens were
outclassed, the customary close and
hard fought struggles were played,
and r.n undisputed title holder was
not determined until Coach Zuppkc's
Illinois ter.iit put Ohio State out of
consideration on the last Saturday of
the playiust season. The Orange and
Blue aggregation found itself after
four successive defeats by Big len
elevens, r.ud played a brand of foot
boll against the Buckeyes which was
characteristic- of Urbana teams.
Many Angles to Consider.
In selecting honorary, or "nil-star"
elevens, every angle of offensive and
defensive foot ball must be taken
into consideration.' There are- cardi
nal points in foot ball upon which
all coaches agree. . When it comes
to advanced tactics, the mentors
have different ideas, and it seldom
happens that two plays of complex
variety are planned the same.
Coaches generally take their ma
terial into consideration before evolv
ing plays. In other words, forma
tions are planned for the candidates.
Plays may' be- built' nround one or
two players of exceptional ability.
The offense 'may- call for eleven men
in every' play, with the attacks sent
into the line and oft! the tackles, or
the forward pass and more ' open
game may ..be. depended upon for
consistent gains. ' ' 1
In the development of an 'all-'
around attack a mythical : eleven
should be composed of men who are
past masters in the art of advancing
the ball., whether the close or open
offense be used. . '' '
;v. Backs , Sure Gainers. ; ;
"Thus, such a team must have ac
curate forward, passers aiid reliable
receivers, a strong off tackle driv
ing half back,' and -another who can
run the ends or, cut 'back, in with
daslr -and speed, t It 'must 'have a
back? who can-sake the necessary
yardage for. fir.st' down by hitting
the lin?. ' - ,
Such an attack would be worth
less if it did not have a line tapable
of giving ; the- necessary protection
on all sorts of plays, whether delayed
forward passes, split bucks, or plays
into the line.- The forwards must
be men who are capable of leading
an interference, efficient in breaking
through to take off the secondary
offense, and, above all, able to open
holes for the backs. ' -
These men1 should know the. im
portance' of holding their ground and
never permit an opponent to break
through and smash a play' before it
is formed. .- ' - .'''
Respect to Injured Stars.
Before coing into' the personnel
of the teams, certain players are de
serving of mention because they
were unable to show their true ahil
ity because of injuries. Arnold Oss
of Minnesota is a great halfback,
but inju-ics sustained in the North
western struggle kept him out , of
remaining contests.
Charles Carney of Illinois, unjni
'mous choice of critics for an all
American flank position last season,
failed to play true to form because
of the knee injured in the Ohio
State contest of 1920. Carney tried
to play this season, but was of little
use to his team. Jack Crangle, the
J'linois fullback, was handicapped
alt season with a bad shoulder. Jack
is a great foot ball player, but was
unable to give his best.
Kipke, the Michigan halfback, is
another sterling warrior who was
incapacitated early in the year and
failed to show his true worth. This
little halfback should be a terror
next season, providing he is not
hurt early in the year. -
Aubrey Devine Unmatched.
Aubrey Devine, leader of the cham
pionship Iowa eleven, is awarded the
position of quarterback and made
captain of the first honorary eleven.
The Hawkeye is one of the greatest
players developed in the middle west
in recent years, and his all-around
ability, combined with rare foot ball
judgment, should make him a unani
mous selection.
The Iowa captain, while not a fast
runner, has an excellent change of
pace on his runs. When he is about
to be tackled, he throws himself at
an opponent and generally makes a
yard or so. He also has a knack of
pivoting out of tacklers' grasps, and
is fighting for ground all the time
he is on his feet
He is a sure handler of punts and
an accurate passer. He is also a good
punter and field goal kicker. He
would be chosen to execute the triple
threat of kick, ran, or pass, and with
interference provided by the remain
der of the team should make ground
on every run. His defensive qualifica
tions are in accord with his offensive
ability. He is a sure tackier and
catcher of the punts, just the type
needed for the defensive fullbacks
pesition.
"Frita Crisler, one of the best
ends developed by Stagg in rears, is
placed at right end. The Maroon
has been a factor in all Chicago's
games, btxt his general play in the

Deceptive Tactics
Being Used More
By College Elevens
New ; York, Nov. 26. Herbert
Redd says that modern foot ball at
tack is going in heavily for decep
tion, which, after all, was what the
rules committee had in mind when
the modern code was formulated
Power is still necessarv. vitally nec
essary, of course,' but it is increased
by the use of deception. The Penn
State brand of assault is an excellent
sample of the modern combination.
The same was true of Harvard, even
though beaten, against Princeton,
and of Yale's winning type of play
against the Tigers. .
This weapon of deception is not
new of course. Harvard has had the
hidden ball plays in action for years,
and there was deception as to the
actual point of. impact even in the
old days of the tackles back attack.
To dig down still deeper into the
years, "Pa" Carbin coached a' school
team up the Hudson river that had
all the deception in the world, an
cient and modern.

School of Experience
Bestoics One Degree
On Mr. "Babe" Ruth
Babe Ruth says that experience
has taught him that CoL Huston, one
of the owners of the New Yorlr Yan
kees, was right when he told him
that he could play left better than
center field for the New York Amer
icans, and that -he will make the
change next season.' Babe appear
to be on of those unhappy boys
who must learn by experience, and
Judge Landis has educated a lot of
them.

NeWMd's 1921 Fool M Team
Was 1 1 One of Best in History of
Un iversity-- Coaches Deserve Credit
Thanksgiving witnessed the (drop
ping of the curtain on the grid
sport and with it the completion of
a season by one of Nebraska's best
teams. Loach
Dawson worked
the Cornhusker
machine into such
shape this year
that it has been
lauded by, some
of . the best critics-
in the country
as.-, a, . headnner
among all teams
of the nation. -
"The Nebraska
Fred Dawscn
team is one of
the best in the country," said Walter
Eckersall of Chicago when in Lin-,
coin a few days aco. . -Eckersall,
quarterback on the Chicago univer
sity team in 1903, '04, '05 and '06, as
well as all-American quarterback in
1905 and '06. and all-American end
in 1904, is in a position to know.' He
has seen practically every team of
note in the country this season.
"The Nebraska team is one of the
best in the .country," he states.' "It
ranks with the big three of the east,
with the. best in the west, and, I be
lieve, is i the strongest team ever
seen at Nebraska. Iowa and Ne
braska are about equal this season.
A game between them would be an
excellent .match." ;' ,. - -.
" Dawson Deserves Credit,
"Such words of praise from one so
well lettered in the grid sport can
not help but be gratifying to' the
University of Nebraska, the city of
Lincoln and the staff which placed
the Huskers on the ladder of fame
during the past grid season. The
Huskers themselves should feel very
much elated at so much commenda
tion. : ; . ' -

1, by
not knowing just , where he - stood
nor what foundation he- had to open
up with. He was forced to learn
his men, his associates and the con
ditions under which he would be
forced to work. The disconcerting
influences which, he was forced to
fight and over which he triumphed
places Coach Dawson' high in the
estimation of the Huskers whom he
tutored through the victorious season.
Little has Coach Dawson to say
except it be in the line of duty. His
foot ball language is snappy, goes
to the point and brings results. His
method of handling men as a man
has had its 'benevolent influences
with the Hiisker squad. All ten
dencies to make light of the opening
workouts were quickly taken out of
the" 'rticn '- when Coach Dawson
started his action.
Assistant Coach Frank handling
the backfield men performed won
ders with his material. During the
entire season he kept
spirit of
rivalry brewing in
the back :- garden
and every ' man
was '" fighting like
mad for a place in
the quartet.. The
end of the season
shows four men
still battling for
the two halfback
positions, Hartley
at bullback, .and
Preston at " quar
Coach Frank
ter, each finally settled after a long
ana araent scrap.
Work on the line is to be credited
in the main to Bill Day, captain of
the 1920 Huskers and assistant
coach this fall. Bill's own recent
practice with the Huskers enabled
him to work with the men in a way
that no other coach could reach
them, captain and fellow player of
several members this season. The
line of heavies, .tinder Day's instruc
tion, became a charging machine of
beef that threatened to crush all in
its way or, on the other hand, be
came a stone wall for defense.
Schulte Was Great Help.
Coach H. F. Schulte, although lit
tle mentioned throughout the foot
ball season, worked constantly with
the Huskcr line especially during
the illness of Assistant Coach Bill
Day. Schulte's work aided materi
ally in developing the line which
went into action against Pitt Oth
ers who worked with the team were
Ray Elliott, Lum Doyle, Zac Hern
berger and numerous former Husker
players.
Rounding out a season with but
one defeat, that at the hands of
Notre Dame. Nebraska has- reason
to feel proud of its team. Only 17
points were scored against the
Huskers this season and while the
Nebraskans tallied -277 points. The

team outplayed the Georgians in
straight foot ball, but were, never
ablc to sustain their attack long
enough to reach the goal by rush
ing. Dartmouth's score came when on

$60,000 Salary
Yankee Winners Look Favor-
ably on Ruth's Wage De
mand for Next Year.
' New York, Nov:' 26. Babe Ruth
has asked the owners of the New
York Yankees to pay him u salary
of $60,000 next season.
And more than this, it is said that
Colonels Til Huston and Jake Rup-
pert look favorably on the king of
swat s demand. . Kuth drew wu.uuu
in the season just passed, but if his
new request is granted it will be the
biggest salary drawn by a man con
nected with base ball.
At present Commissioner Landis is
paid $42,500, Ban Johnson, American
league president, gets $30,000 and Ty
Cobb and Tris Speaker are said to
draw $20,000 " -President
Harding, with $75,000,
tops Ruth's demand bv a close mar
gin, while the vice president of the
Lnited states gets a paltry $12,000.
The Yankees made more money
last year than any club since organ
ized base ball was launched and Ruth
is said to have been largely respon
sible... He also brought in many an
extra .dollar for. the : Yankees' seven
opponents. . ;
. It is thought possible that if Ruth
sticks to his demand the New York
club may ask other. American league
clubs to chip in a, few, thousand
shares. .. ; '

ships of the Navy eleven plowed
through the heavy seas of the l'olo
grounds today, battered the Army's
fortifications in the rain, captured
the annual service foot ball classic,
7 to 0, and took the lead t in the
scries. Since 1890 the Navy lias
won 12 times and the Army 11.
The Navy scrapped its irplane
on discovering early that dread
naughts were more effective. It at
tacked with line plunges and ci'-l
runs that resulted in an advance of
53 yards to a touchdown in the sec
ond period. 1
Barchet was ti;e stellar battle
cruiser in this advance and indeed
throughout the game. From hij
own 44-yard line he circled end on a
kick iorniauon ior yaros. v,on

carrying the ball off tackle from a
tr.ndem formation until the forme'
smashed over, followed by King'i
goal. The progress comprised 13
plays, during which the Navy earned
first down four times.
Army Threatened Goal.
Outrushed and . outplayed in the
line. Army threatened- to tie late in
the game as the result of the bril
liance of French. Receiving a punt
at his own 40-yard line, he ran ;t
back 10 yards and followed this with-'
a 23-yard run around his right end
with interference provided by a
double shift of the backs to the right
before the ball was passed.. In two
more plays he had put the ball 10
yards away from the Navy's goal,
but was thrown for a five-yard loss
in attempting to repeat.
Here Hamilton, a substitute back,
intercepted a forward pass and the
threat of a- tie -scorpf was averted.
Hamilton was tackled as he grabbeci
the ball eight yards from his own
goal, and although the Navy was
penalized for off side, it kicked out
of danger, . v - -
