Z. CREIGHTON, Left Half and Quarter, - - - - - Chillicothe, Texas. P, Z. was the smallest man in the backfield, but the hardest to stop. He made 1 the most consistent gains through the line--not always long ones-ibut always substantial ones. On defense he played End, and is mighty hard to get around. After Maples was hurt, P. Z- generaled the team, and did it well. With this year's experience he should make an exceptionally 'good man next year. COLIN MCLAREN, Cuard --------- Wichita Falls, Texas 1 :l Here is a young blond haired fellow who Played consistent football until the middle of the season when an injury incapacitated him for rough play. Until then Blondie was one of the mainstays of the line. He will come back next year, and we predict that he lg will be heard from. W1 RICHARD THOMPSON, Center, ------- - Lockney, Texas, il. When you see a Center go through an entire season, playing in all of nine games without making a single bad pass, you will concede that he is at least a good offensive ill Center. Such is Diclt's record this year. He was one of the team's mainstays on de- 'r l fense. He played defensive Half, and was exceptionally good at breaking up passes. He is a splendid tackler. Another good man for next year's team. g l t 1 r i N E l ' L V i ,,,,,.. , ,,-,,,,i...., , , , .Yr, --.rua - Y---41- 'il l i ' --'15--fg ' ' if :Tif'i:i:I?4 1 p ' L . PACE ONE HUNDRED AND NINETEEN

GEORGE CLOSE, Right Half, ------ - Shamrock, Texas. Here is the fastest man we saw during the entire year. Give George the ball and give him some sort of interfcrence and he will make the gain. Ten or fifteen yards around the end was a small matter. He is an excellent tackler, and on running back punts, he usual- ly carries them back so far that it is hardly worth while for the opposing team to punt. He is some sidestepper, and can catch a pass in most any position. In all of the games this year he was a marked man, but he managed to make a touchdown in every game but one. We are glad that he is coming back next year. ROBERT YoUNc, Guard, ---------- Rotan, Texas. Robert saw his first football game this season. Of course he was green at the game to begin with. but he played in every quarter with the Bull Dogs. That's enough to prove his worth. He is very gentle with his opponents, usually taking them by the nap of the neck and easing them to the ground roughly. JAMES NOBLE, Guard ---------- Clarendon. Texas. Jim played in but few of the games during the year, but if there is anything to the psychology of football, the knowledge that Jim was standing on the line ready to go in must have saved a game or two for Clarendon. When he played he showed himself to be a fast linesman with a penchant for using headwork. PAGE ONE HUNDRED AND EIGHTEEN

Nanners was a dandy offensive end. l-le was adept at receiving passes, and after receiving the ball he was hard to get. His long suit was nabbing short passes. Al the beginn-ing of the season he was not very strong on defense: but at the end of the year his defense was such that Canyon found it usless to start a play his way in the Thanks- giving game. He is coming back. I l JOE MOUNTS, Tackle, ---------- Hale Center, Teaxas. If love of the game and grit were all it took to make a football player, Joe would be one of the best. He has nerve to hit 'em hard and anywhere, and he has the speed: but he lacked the weight for a lineman, besides having a bad knee that gave him trouble this year. He is a good man for any team. RAYMOHD ZEIGLER, Half, --------- Shamrock, Texas. A charley horse kept Doc Pill off the squad for a long time. He hits as hard as the hardest. Through the line is where he gains most consistently. He is good for four or five yards nearly every time. Aside from his offensive ability he is good on the de- l fensive. Especially on breaking up forward passes. l-le graduates this year. ,IULIAN JOPLIN, Guard, ---------- Slaton, Texas. I Laughing always this wiry bundle of muscle resembles in many respects a human I . 'l dynamo. Quick as greased lightening, tough as leather, most any player you might dr- scribe, it fits ,Iop. Lack of weight and knowledge of the game kept him out of the ll l line up until late in the season, but we are looking for him to show something next year. .Q 1 e f ,A 1, 'sjfj l X il f . i11l '-i-'--'-- --' -- Al' 1 I - 'XY ' ' fi' -' ' .,. i'T'Tfm ' 'T'-hA so lllwl I. .- Price oNs HUNDRED AND TWENTY
