E S- ,,.--14' sq-- - N CLAIRE WHITFORD, fCap't.J Center-165 pounds. Whltty has played four years of foot- ball in Fairfax, and although he is but a two-year letter man, he proved to his team that he was worthy of the honor which they bestowed on him during his senior year. His passes were always accurate. He is largely responsible for the successful season of '2'I. Claire never lost a minute's time in any game, and his place is one not easily filled. - WILLIS COFER End-144 pounds. Cofer is another senior, and the only other man to play the full time on the team during the '27 season. Cofer was good for the necessary yards at any time, or could fill a place in the line with equal skill. Willis wears three stripes on his sweater, and they are justly earned. LOUIE SHELTON Fullback-144 pounds. Lou ls one of the four year letter men on the team. He played tackle during his first three years, and was picked as one of the best ln the coun- ty last year. The fleet-footed Shelton was placed at full this year, and well deserves a place on a picked eleven. He has the credit of covering ninty-5 five yards for a touchdown from the initial kick-off, against a much heave ier team. RUSSELL WALKER Halfback-135 pounds. Bunks is one of the four year letter men of Fairfax, also. He's just a quiet lad, but is always ready to carry the ball for a gain through the line or around end. Yes, he can receive passes or intercept them as the case demands. Russell will be missed when the '28 season is begun. ALBERT CAMPBELL Tackle-144 pounds. Jake has completed his football ca- reer in F. H. S., and it has been a creditable one too. Albert has played equally well in every game, and is an example of the invincible line that lead the much heavier teams that were encountered throughout the sea- son. Eli IE El I
