absolutely without a peer on the defenseand, in the opinion of the writer, is the very best defensive manthat has ever played the game. Built as sturdy as an ox, onewould imagine that a fast man would run away from him, but,strange as it seems, he was plenty fast enough to keep up withall the others.

For guards on the second team, Mensel of Dart-mouth, and Walton of Pennsylvania are selected.
