 GEORGE BARBER, was a good backfleld man. He was late in getting started; therefore, he did not show up much until the last few games of the season. But in those few games, his tackling was great. There was not a man on the team who showed so much improvement as “M. D.” did. This being his first year in football, George's ability to pick holes in the opponent’s line-up was extraordinary. Although he was a good line plunger, his feature “stunt’ was a short end run. TI RNER, our husky left tackle, was the star of every game, making the left side of the line seem like a brick wall. Very often Jesse would break through the line and get the player before he got started. And Jesse has never y$t found the man who when he got his hands on him could get away. When we were in need of a five yard gain, it was just a call on Jess for a tackle through tackle run, and we were seldom dis- appointed. WATSOX—“NEB.” our fast little left end. was always where he was need- ed most. Several times during the past season his opponents commented upon his speed. Also, he was a sure tackle. When he went for an op- ponent’s feet the man was sure to come. The high school has never had a better man for receiving forward passes.
