BAKER, Ulilily Lf!ICIHHII Hel'e's a man who could play almost any- M ' where with ease to himself and equally great disaster to his opponent. When the six feet of young manhood was launched at one of the opposing backs he was stopped in his tracks and usually thrown for a loss, especially when the game was needed very badly by the op- posing team. His opponents learned to respect him and keep away from him as much as possible. GRIFFIN, Right Gmzrrl Grithn was unable to he one of the Iirst men on the gridiron this year on account of having sprained his ankle last year during baseball season. XVhen he was in line it was like a brick wall, ' because no one was able to sus- tain the attacks that Griffin made. His joints were easy to come apart, but when some one would pull them hack in place, you could see old Griff in his proper place, which would cause the spirit of the team to rise. 141

Left End Frzmk is one of the hardest tacklers and the most progressive player on the team, we might even say, in Virginia. To see him in zi game is a scene never to be forgotten, for he is all over the lield hitting them low and throwing them for losses. He lights all the time to keep the Lemon and Black on top. 1-IUTCHINS, Full-Back ixu.-v,lRG1NI.x 1fUI.1.-mei: Hutch came to us from the State of North Carolina. He is another one of our big boys. He mastered football, it being his favorite sport. On the gridiron Hutch was a genius, having made football on the All- Virginizi prep team. VVe are proud of the record this line boy has made, and we are sure that he will help bring home 12lll1'CiS for the University of North Carolina next year. Wfe wish him 21 great and happy success for the future years. Too much praise can not be given him. l 140

He was there in almost every play. lf he was not there it was be- cause he was on the bottom of the whole bunch. lf he didn't make a lot of clean, pretty tackles in each game, it was because he either was sick or disabled. XN'hen he was feeling good he was pulling off perfect tackles all over the lield. ' Ji. LEE, Lcft Tackle Lee's ability as a football player was never questioned from the lirst practice. He played a hard, consistent, peppy game from the be- ginning to the end and secured a place on the varsity in a short time. lfVhen the opposing team wanted to Ilnd a spot through which the backs could gain they soon 'found that the left tackle was not the place. Lee was one of the three members of the varsity who took part in every minute of play. NVC have no doubt that he will make a strong bid for the Fresh- man team at the University of North Carolina nekt year. 142
