It may bo said that wo might just as well have 'chosen the
oatiro Nebraska 'team, and in truth it would not make much dif
ference, for in most of the positions tho Nebraska man are so far
above those of any other one team that comparison is unpleasant;
but wo are not piggish, and would like to give tho rest a show.
As a matter of fact, it is our belief that our own little Gornhuskers
could beat a team comprising tho pick of tho other schools in
the valley without extending themselves to a heart-breaking limit.
Tho only positions on tho tdam as selected that in our opinion
aro open to question are center because Elliott has not played
thoro regularly, full back, and right end.
Elliott is given the preference because, regardless of his pass
ing, he is tho best man at the position in tho Valley at breaking
up forward passes and blocking punts. 'Ho is so fierce tliat it is
fun to watch him. He is exceedingly fast on his feet, and has
shown up well all year, far outshining any man he has played
against.
Lofgren is tho man for right end, but in the game against us
Ames showed that in Chnppol she had an end who has to be
reckoned with. Lofgren is his superior in every qualification save
merely that of speed, and at that Gus is not so slow that anybody
has made a touchdown against him on returning a punt, no has
a bad habit of being there waiting till punts are caught.
At fullback, Burge is given the preference, as being probably
tho best kicker in the valley, especially of goals from placement.
Tho little Ames man tied Nebraska alone and in several other
games has shown that his kicks aro. not made bv accident. lie
has comprised Ames' only offense all year, and the team has gone
through the season so far without a defeat, except at Minnesota.
At tho legitimate business of a fullback line-plunging Leonard
Purdy is the class of the whole valley, as he is also in getting in
terference, but Purdy is so good a halfback which by tho way is
his natural position, that he can be shifted there to alternate with"
"Little Brother' Ernie Frank. ' -
As to tho last named, Nebraska's midget 148-p'ounder has no
opponent for his position other than those on his own squad,
Racely and Purdy. ne has play.ed a most sensationaUgame -all-season,
and is really the marvel of the regulars. He has at times
outshone oven his big brother.
As to Owen, Shonka, Chaunor, Pearson and Warner, we
anticipate little objection to our choice. It is useless to tell why
these men aro chosen, as they have made explanation unnecessary.
Pearson is the only one of tho quintet who was not chosen -last
year, and tho work of tho fast 200-pounder has been such that ho
cannot fail to be a unanimous choice this year.
Of all tho many cloctors, can you Baker's Cafo aerveB cake nil dnv.
