He was courageous and at all times was found doing his best. VVatt played center and end with great effectiveness. He proved to be a marvel in taking passes and never did he shirk the responsibility of getting his man. He possessed enthusiasm and played with a vim that brot honor to the team. Albert Trickey, guard, played with such force and determination that he won due recognition from all of his opponents. This is his first year as a member of the team but he worked so efficiently that we are justified in say- ing that he is a man of more than mediocre ability. VViggins, quarter and half-back, played as usual whenever his physical condition permitted him to be in the game. In spite of the fact that he had received many injuries, he was always anxious to enter the game, and could be depended upon to punt, pass, or run ends. Pulis, center, was the man who car- ried the 'fpepv for the team. He was especially fortunate in his tackle work, and never did he shirk any responsibil- ity which presented itself to him. Esslinger, end and half-back, was at all times found playing a consistent game, altho this was his first year of experience. He has the spirit and is capable of doing effective team-work. Mauss, guard, end, and half-back, was found fighting when he had the opportunity of being in the game. At all times he showed great mental as well as great physical strength, in the way he played. I Fanselow end was found to be a Y Y scrapper. He was loyal and did excel-

He was found at quarter and end, and was al- ways in the game. Altho on two occasions, scarcely able to walk because of a sprained ankle, he played the games with characteristic nobility. Trickey, captain for next year, will provide efhcient leadership. This year he played at tackle, working aggres- sively, and could always be depended upon when a tackle around was called. Krieg, who was found at end dur- ing the first four games, was ready at all times to deliver the goods. How- ever, he was forced out of the line-up by a sprained knee, and was greatly missed. Hunter, guard, played a consistent game at all times. He is square in his playing and it is this quality which is of a genuine value in football work. With no opportunity to shine in of- fense, he is one of the strongest linemen filling the guard position in the Hawk- eye Conference. Wall, fullback, played a good all- around game. He has the physique and the determination to win and could be depended upon to run, punt, or to plunge the line. Ganfield, half-back, was always playing like a demon, never shirking his part of the work. In spite of the fact that he is light, he proved to be swift and careful in his discrimina- tions during the game, for which a high compliment is due him. VVood, tackle, was the man who could keep his opponent guessing as to what he was going to do, and always used his toe to an advantage on free ,5M4,g'.z- 5 , X XY XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX ,XX .

He was consistent in his discrimination of each play and showed excellent judgment. Larson, end, was always there when it came to taking passes. In spite of the fact that he had received various injuries, he was anxious and ready to enter the game when called upon to do so. Coach Vileyrauch has shown great skill in his training of the team. We have in our coach a man who has had the complete confidence and respect of every man who ever took part in foot- ball at Ellsworth, under his leadership. Vile sometimes hear it said that men have won a great name for themselves as coaches because they had control of a team which was able to win one game from a rival school. Our coach has had such an opportunity but that is not what makes him popular at Ellsworth. It has been because of his insistent de- mand for clean athletics. He urges the men to fight hard but what is more he asks them to be manly and straight- forward in their conduct. He has met every man fairly and shown favorit- ism toward none. Such a spirit is what the students of Ellsworth wish to find in their athletics. The establishment of such a spirit has won for Coach VVey- rauch the esteem of the entire student body. In the director of athletics, Professor John Himmel, we find a character ab- solutely genuine and worthy of our most profound respect. He has worked vigorously to bring about the best pos- sible conditions for the team. It is a pleasure to work with him and to know that he enters into the greatest sympa- thetic relationship possible. More than a small portion of his time has been given for the purpose of making the athletic association a real success. ' ' 'rfffffr i111 121
