rllllllllllllllllllllllIllIllIllIlll'!'l'l'llllllllIlllllIIll ' .IJVIIIIIIIIIYIIIIIIIUIIII s ERWIN BERRIER Center Berry Black came out in the first of the season with scarcely any previous experi- ence. Through his determination to learn the game and his fight he soon proved his abilities. Accurate in his passes and quick to act and judge he was always to be de- pended mxpon. Breaking up passes was his delight. ROY ESTES Fullback Roy was laid up with injuries for several games. He always gave his best in every game. On offense his line plunging was a notable feature. He became very efficient in plugging up holes in the line. When he tackled 'em they stopped. JOE McCAIN Quarterback Gobbo came out with great ideas of touchdowns from the kickoff. He had flght to spare so he soon established himself on the team. He was very effective at running interference. His tackling was excelled on- ly by his ability to break up passes, through which he made several good returns. CARL ENGLAND Fullback Curly came in to flll up the vacancy in- cident to Roy's injuries. He proved himself capable in every way and alternated with Roy during the latter part of the season. Line plunging was where he excelled, often gaining as much as eight yards a down. THEODORE JACKSON R. Half 'l eedy put himself into the game with a zest that pleased the whole team. Keokuk's last hopes for a touchdown were shattered by him when he tackled their half for a six yard loss on last down and goal . His running and ability to nab passes were noted by all who saw him play. LLOYD ESTES L. Guard Lloyd was the big man left of center. His weight and strength blocked many a play coming his way. Lloyd was a sure tackler and could always handle any man he played against. In opening holes he could always be depended upon. Lloyd should be a formidable player next year.
