'M 731 at BERNARD HELMBRECHT, F ullback .J l WILLIAM SCARPINO, End Scarpino's craftiness .more than made up Holly wound up his four year. career in Des Moines University in a blaze of glory. As a plunging halfback he is recognized by critics as without a peer in the state. Handicapped by injuries he was still respected by his op- ponents as a hard man to stop Without a gain. His loss will be a big one to the team of 1922. for his lack of weight. His ability at receiv- ing forward passes was uncanny and the Des Moines fans will not soon forget the pass he received which turned the tide of the D. M. U.-Penn game last fall. In the Lombard game, Scarpino dropped Lamb in his tracks time and again. Bill is an valuable man to any squad and we are fortunate in having him for a couple more years.

'E 'max ' E BUD KNOX, Quarterback and End Bud Knox is considered one of the best football players developed in the state in recent years and only the fact that he was switched from his regular position during the middle of the season prevented his 'making the first All-State selection. As it was he was given the quarterback position on the second team. To opposing teams, he was a triple threat, his kicking, passing and carrying the ball being features of every game. GEORGE EVANS, Tackle Chick further proved his athletic versa- tility in football. Playing a tackle he was used to great advantage on shift plays at re- ceiving passes, carrying the ball and passing in the backfield, while on defense he stopped everything that came his Way. His defensive work in the Lombard game was a subject of much comment in the Galesburg and Chicago papers. He will be a valuable man on the 1922 squad.

CLYDE BURNETTE, Halfback This red-haired halfback was another triple threat on the Des Moines machine. His ability to plunge the line,4run open field, kick or pass kept his opponents constantly guessing while his running of interference and tackling were important factors which contributed to the Des Moines team play. Red hit his real stride in the Dubuque and Haskell Indian games. He will be with us again next year. S, 4 EARL KENNEDY, Tackle Cyk was unfortunate in having his collar bone broken in themiddle of the season. Up to this time, however, he had proven himself the equal of any tackle in the state. His weight combined with an unusual amount of speed made him especially effective in the line while his work in going down under punts was sensational. Cyk will be here for the season of 1922.
