Norman McCrea Eckf.rt — RUjlit Guard. Norman is a brother of Captain Eckert, and it does not take long to see that he is made of the true stuff. This is Eckert ' s first trial at the college sport, and by his showing this year he will surely make a fine player in the near future. By hard and steady work he made the team from the very start and played through every game. He has the build tor a prep-school football player, and he learned to a great extent last fall how to use ever} ' ounce of his weight. It will certainly be good news to our readers to know that Eckert has several more vears at M. U. S. Page Seven.

Malcolm Eugene Driver — Fullback. Driver is one of the old men of the 1911 team. He has played on the M. U. S. team as a regular for two years. Driver is a fullback who, if he had more weight, , would be a very valuable man on his team. But his weight made it hard for him to go through the heavy opponents. Notwithstanding this drawback though, he is a hard fighter, and deserves much credit for what he has done for the Red and Blue. His best work for the 1911 season was in making interference for the halfbacks. Driver seemed to take pleasure in taking a man out of his path. This he did remarkably well on Thanks- giving, and his team was greatly benefitted by his work in this line during the game. Driver has never let himself out as he should, and we predict that when he has once felt the call of the game he will be an indi ' pensable man. Page Six.

Manuel J. Hunter — Halfback. Hunter was able to pla}- in but two games ot the 1911 season. In his tirst game, which was against the U. of T. team, he played a good game, and did especi- ally well on defense. In the Thanksgiving game Hun- ter was a stone wall on defense, and at one time made a very spectacular gain around Old Hi ' s end. Hunter will yet make M. U. S. a good football player, and will be able to play out the entire schedule. Page Eight.
