Va Dy K f SYLVESTER LES HELFfLeft End Les was often pulled out of the line to punt, and he turned in many a fine game as a pass receiver. He was a fine blocker and tackler and threw opposing backs for heavy losses. This fellow gave his best and fought until the end. It will not be an easy task for his successor next fall to carry on his tradition. AMBROSE SNORT VAN DYKE-Left End Snort used his height to good advantage at all times.

IEROME COMY HELFARight Halfback Comy could smash the line and circle the ends for long substantial gains.
