It was necessary for every mem- ber of the first eleven to play superb WALCOTT FERRISfootball in order to hold his place as there were so many excellent substitutes. One of the most hotly contested positions was that of left guardg Frank Bot- taro had but a scant lead over the fourteen year old sopho- more, Albert Soulies. In fact, their playing time was nearly evenly divided although Bottaro was in the opening lineup the majority of games. Soulies has speed is husky and has a great deal of natural ability while Betts is an ex- tremely steady player of whom Janssen says He more than once turned the tide of battle by making a timely tackle or a fumble recovery. Trent Meredith the unexcelled combination of offen- sive charffer interference runner punt coverer and defen- sive player in Northern California C I F had capable subs in Alfred Costanzo Ben Anater and Howard f Hubner although the latter showed p - possibilities later as a half-back.

With a little more experience he will find himself a valuable asset heavy tackle and a good defensive player who should wear a Block JOE CALLAHAN i. :l ' in :El Sl edt R? it 524 5 S3 S: g!
