With reports thus far from uni
versities and colleges on ihe men who
will lead their respective football
elevens next year, It is possible to
form an Idea as to the favored posi
lions from which the leaders have
been- selected. Halfbacks lead the
list, while guards received least con
sideration. Of the 57 men thus far
elected, the positions rank as follows:
Halfbacks, 14; tackles. 11; centers. 10;
ends. H : fullbacks.. 6: Quarters. 5; cuards. 3
Thus 32 leaders were selected from
among the linesmen and 25 from the
backfield. which probably will come
somewhat as a surprise to many who
have supposed the majority of cap
tains were backfield players. It also
will be noted that the quarterback,
who generally 'is the field captain by
virtue of the fact that he usually
calls signals and directs the strategy,
ranks next to last in the matter of
choice as the actual leader of the
team.
As a matter of fact the position in
which a man may play has little or
nothing lo do with his choice as the
leader of his team. 1; la his standing
with and influer.ee among his men
that count. The best player on a team
has no chance of being elected, not
withstanding his prowess, unless he
has those qualities of mind and heart
which go toward inspiring his men
with a certain devotion and affect'on
for him. A college football player
may be counted on to do his best for
his alma mater irrespective of who
the captain may be, but there is no
gainsaying the fact that he can al
ways do a little better, and give more
of himself, if h's captain Is a man
after his own heart.
There can be little question that
tl?e happy choice of a captain has
considerable to do with success or
failure of a team. There have been a
few cases where a captain was
crowded out of the lineup because
some one else proved a better player,
but the fact that their captain was
standing on the sideline, unable to be
with them although they knew hts
heart was there, undoubtedly had its
psychological effect and maee those
men play just a little bit harder for
his sake. Every man knew what a
bitter trial it was for that man to
stand there alone.
The man who can inspire a player
with a mere slap on tbe back is the
feHow teams are looking for to elect

Best Team Won, Declares Coach of
Ohio State.Team.
LOS ANGELES, Jan. 2 Grant P.
Ward, head line coach for the football
team of Ohio .State university, com
menting on yesterday's California-
Ohio State football game, said:
"'Beaten at their own game.' This
expression aptly expresses the result
of the New Year's day fray.
"The Golden Bears sprung a di
versified attack that was not only
more varied but also had more punch
than that exhibited by the Bljckejfes.
The Golden Bears possess every
thing that a good football team should
have, Including every variety of the
forward passing attack, superb inter
ference on end runs and a line that
could open up holes for short line
plunges.
"It is doubtful if any team could
have defeated California the way
they played today.
"Probably the entire affair could
be summed up la the words 'the best
team won.' And the hats of Ohio are
off to the California eleven."

BY WILLIAM UNMACK.
The story of the "Stanford ax" is
known to many followers of college
sDorts on the Pacific coast, but the
tory of the "Michigan jug" is not.
In 1899 Stanford produced a woods
man s ax at one of the baseball games
against California and threatened to
give it to the blue and gold "in the
neck." After the game Everett
Brown, now superior Judge of Ala
meda county, Archie Cloud and three i water
others stole the ax and it has since
become historic, but Stanford has
never got it back because the Cali
fornia students kept it under lock and
key in a bank safe deposit vault
Four years later, in 1903. Michigan
went to play Minnesota a football
game and took along a five-gallon
stone jug filled with Ann Arbor water,
Th trump resulted in a I tn R tie trrirr.
In the excitement after the game th
Minnesota students stole the jug and
it was next found in the trophy room
at Minnesota. It rested there until
last fall, when Minnesota notified
Michigan that if the latter won the
jug would be returned to its original
owners provided an agreement were
entered into that the jug become a

DEL MONTE. Ca!., Jan. 2. The
year 1920 will go down in history as
the greatest ever enjoyed in a sports
way here.
For many years the state cham
pionships have been decided on the
Del Monte golf course, and in former
years the Pacific coast, as well
the state champions were crowned
on the tennis courts here.
During the past year the scope of
competition was extended to take in
trapshooting, swimming, polo and the
like.
Golf naturally took the lead in at
tracting the greatest interest. It Is
a matter of statistics that something
like IS, 000 more games of golf were
played during 1920 than the previous
12 months. Increased interest was
displayed in practically all lines of
out-of-door pastime.
A feature of the year was the ac
tivity of social and business organiza
tions i l deciding their golf champion
ships at Del Monte. The list of the
champions crowned at Del Monte dur
ing 1920, their homes and th- respect

Youthful Basketball Tossers to
Meet Experienced Quiutct
in Hoop Game.
Tonight at S:30 the TTnai Brith
gymnasium is to be the scene -of
wnat should be one of the best inde
pendent basketball games of the sea
son. The Arleta Athletic club will
tangle with the B'nai B'rith hoopers
in the first game of a three - game
series. The Arleta team is composed
chiefly of high school players, all
the boys being in their teens. Speed
and teamwork are the chief factors
in tbe offensive of this club. Manager
Brooks has organized a team of ten
men, all practically on a par as far
as playing ability is concerned. It is
this that makes the Arleta combina
tion so feared among independent cir
cles. The B'nai B'rith quintet is com
posed mostly of older players. Men
such as Weiser, Lakefish, Youdavitch.
Arronson and Goodman have been
seen in action around Portland for a
good many years. Hence the battle
tonight should prove interesting to
the theoretic fans, for it Is to be a
contest of youth and speed against
experience and age.
There will be a preliminary game
between the B'nai B'rith juniors and
the Colonials. This game will start
at 7:30.
SILVEHTON DEFEATS ARLETA

the lead of its opponents. McCleary,
Scott and Quail, the same trio that
featured in the first game for Silver
ton again showed to advantage In
the second. Babe Thomas and Scott

year, 3 to 0, and
now has the jug.
We know the historical value of the
Stanford ax and we know the high
sentimental esteem in which It is held
by California. We know that all
power on earth could not get that ax
away from California by force and
we know that the Stanford cohorts
would like to see that ax again. It
Is a fetisli and an institution.
Now, why can't California take a
leaf out of the Michigan-Minnesota
book and make a proposal similar to
that which now obtains regarding the
Jug? i
The writer mentioned this Idea to
Judge Brown, who originally stole
the ax. and he Immediately coincided
in the view that it would be an Inter
esting feature for future games be
tween California and Stanford. He
said:
"The idea appeals to me very much.
Of course I have not had time to
think it over, but I can't s,ee why it
would not be an excellent thing and
add very much to the historic and
sentimental value of the weapon."
Many rival colleges have historic
objects like the ax. The jug hereto
fore mentioned is one, Princeton has
an old revolutionary cannon which
once was stolen by Rutgers college in
the dead of night, the big gun being
hauled away by means of ox teams.
Princeton students awaited their op
portunity and regained the trophy by
the same means. There are many
other colleges that have similar
trophies of competition.,
Nothing is more dear to the col
legiate heart than the forms and
pomps of various college ceremonies.
The ax presents a fine opportunity
for an Interesting added ceremonial
when the trophy is passed from one
team to another.

I The Publishers of the Nation Offer You One of the
Greatest of AH Callings The Easiest
Road to Success.
Would you like' to get into a business that insures a
good earning power and employment anywhere in the
civilized world?
The publishers of America want you to work for them
if you have as much as a good grammar school educa
tion. The work is very nearly the same as operating a
typewriter for six or eight hours a day.
The atmosphere surrounding the work nowadays is
as agreeable as that of a counting room, and the associa
tions are just as pleasing. It is attractive to talented
women as well as to ambitious men, from 18 years old
upward.
A school for the purpose of training you in thirteen
weeks has been established at Macon, Ga., in connection
with the Georgia-Alabama Business College. This paper
is interested in the school because it sees the great need
for the graduates. Employment at unusually high pay
is assured at once if you but join the school and work
faithfully to perform the tasks assigned to you.
Letters and telegrams are received daily, from all
parts of the nation, begging the school for operators.
If you want to get into a work that brings you a big
reward immediately and gives you an opportunity to
reach a high place in the world, write for prospectus,
addressing.
