i The 1916 northwest high school foot
ball season produced many future
Brlckleys, Mahans, Hestons, Coys.
Shevllns, Iloffelf tngers. Hares and
Kckersalls, therefore making the se
lection of an all-star eleven an ex
tremely hard problem. The writer did
not have an opportunity to observe
the playing of the outside teams, but
the selections wero baaed on reports
turned over by coaches and critics In
the various districts.
Seven schools are represented on
the team, 'three players of the won
derful Everett, Wash;, high school
machine being honored. The Wash
ington high school of Portland and
the Broadway high school of Seattle
: each have two players on the eleven,
th other positions being distributed
among: the Albany, Or., high school,
the McMinnVllle, Or., hign school and
the North Central high school of Spo
kane. Halfbacks, quarterbacks, tackles
and ends of wonderful ability were
plentiful during the season, several
players being crowded off the team
by the narrowest of margins.
Davis Mas Placed Cinched.
"Fat" Davis, the 225-pound center
of the Albany, Or., high school, Is
without doubt the best player in that
position In the northwest. He was
' given the same berth on the team se
lected last year. Davis, despite the
fac.t that he weighs 225 pounds, is
fairly fast. He Is a wonderful de
fensive player, besides being an ac
curate passer. Anderson of the North
Central high school of Spokane, Stan
ton of the Everett, Wash., high school,
and Gordon Oiebisch, captain of the
Jefferson team of Portland, are cen
ters of no mean ability.
Guard playenj were not the best the
northwest has developed, and In view
of the fact that good tackles were
numerous two of them were shifted
to the guard positions. Captain Bor
man of Washington high of Portland,
who has had two years of experience
at guard, and Brltt. who wax looked
upon as the life of the Everett school
.line, are the players placed In these
positions.
MoMlnnTllle tad Warned.
Dunton of th0 North Central high
of Spokane and Murray of McMinn
Vllle, Or., are given the tackle berths.
i Murray is Bald to be the best scholas
tic tackle developed In Oregon since
the days of Johnny Beckett, the pres
ent University of Oregon captain, who
Is recognized as being of all-American
calibre. Murray weighs 175 pounds
and is equally as strong on the of
fensive as he Is on the defensive.
Dunton, the Spokane boy, tips the
beam at 180 pounds and is 8 feet tall.
Besides being a fast, aggressive line
man, he Is a great kicker. The Miller
brothers of Albany, Or., high are rated
very highly by fans who have seen
th-im In action, while much praise Is
given Orundler of the Broadway high
of Seattle, Daly of Washington high
of Portland and McMonagle of Ho
qulam. 1
I Myers of Everett and LaFray of the
; Broadway high of Seattle are without
. doubt two .of the best ends ever de
veloped In scholastic circles in this
section of the country. Myers la a
lightweight, but he is wonderfully fast
and exceptionally good on forward
passes. LaFray Is a 168-pounder, be
ing a whale of a player on the of
: fensive and defensive.
Everett Itald General Named.
The selection of quarterback was a
hard one, but In view of the fact that
A. Dalley, the wonderful field general
of Everett. Wash., has had four years
. of experience, he Is placed ahead of
Mardis of the Albany, Or., high and
Hall, star Of the Lewis and Clark
high of Spokane. Besides directing a
team In regular collegiate style,
Dalley Is a great ground gainer, and
Is exceptionally fitted for the re
turning of punts.
No halfback in the scholastic circles
an crowd Charley Parsons off the
team, In the opinion of many of the
Portland football fans and it Is ex
pected .that h will become as great
a star 'as his brother, Johnny, of Uni
versity of Oregon fame. Young Par
song is heavier than his brother and
' . la good on picking his holes, besides
" being a star -defensive player. Over
. ton of the Broadway school of Seattle
, Is placed alongside of Parsons, but
x h Is a 'different type of player, being
a wjnder -n the open field and with
forward passes. Among the other
halfbacks who were given great con
sideration are Earl Brown of Ho
quiam. Wash:, who Is a great place
and drop kicker, W. Dalley of Everett
and Lyons of Aberdeen, Wash., are
other high class men, while Moe Sax.

The human body is composed as we
have learned . of innumerable cells
which form bone, tissue, etc, The
bones form the framework of the body
which we term the skeleton. The total
number of bones in the adult human
being Is 206. The bones are varied in
shape being classed as long, short, flat
and irregular. The bones are covered
with a tissue called the periosteum.
The bones are nourished by means of
the blood, as they are supplied with
arteries, veins, lymphatics and nerves.
The bones forming the skeleton are
connected to each other by Joints and
are held together by ligaments.
The muscles form the active agents
of movement or locomotion. They are
divided into two classes, those under
control of the will being termed
school team. Johnny Murphy of the
Columbia university of Portland is
another good halfback.
Wilcox la Bart FaUbaok.
Steve Wilcox, fullback of the Jef
ferson team, champions of the Port
land scholastic league, stands out as
the best fullback. Grlbble of the
Broadway high of Seattle Is a star
also.
Collectively this team would be a
wonderful aggregation, which would
average as much as a college team In
weight.

Penn Has Iron Man
Of Football World
Baseball had "Iron Man" McGlnnlty,
and a number of other Iron men, If w
remember correctly, but not to be out
done by the diamond pastime, football
has come to the front with an Iron man
who la more or less of a bear.
i This exceedingly husky young Iron
man is none other than Heinle Miller,
of Pennsylvania. Miller has been
playing football for some seven or
' eight years. Including, of course, his
years in high school and at Mercers
berg academy. In alt that time he
I has never been lifted from a game on
account of Injuries. Miller Is an end,
' and the duty of an end has to do with
cracking interference by headlong
i dives at the ankles of opposing ath
letes. At this game Miller is a past
master, and yet be refuses to wear
a head gear, because, be says, head
gears are too hot, and he Isn't afraid
of getting hurt anyway.

striated or voluntary and those not
under control of the will, called non
striated or Involuntary.
The heart is a notable exception to
the classification of striated muscle
as voluntary. The muscles are con
nected to the skin, ligaments, bone and
cartilages toy tendons or by fibrous
membranes. Dr. Martin says that "The
characteristic physiological property of
muscular tissue and that for which it
Is employed in the body, Is the faculty
possessed by Its fibres of shortening
forcibly under certain circumstances."
We term this property centractility.
The healthy condition not only of the
muscles but of the different parts of
the body with which they are con
nected depends upon the full perform
ance of this function. In order to
maintain this function muscular exer
cise Is essential. Exercise consists of
the contraction and expansion of mus
cular tissue.

History of Game.
. . . . ... . ,Q T ,,...,.,
The placing of Miss Sara Livingstone
of Seattle, Wash., in position No. 5 In
the 1916 women's rankings of the
United States Lawn Tennis association
is one of the biggest boosts the net
game In this section of the co ntry has
ever received. Laat year MUs Living
stone was ranked tenth.
The Seattle woman has played won
derful tennis during the last four
years, annexing the Oregon state cham
pionship for the seasons of 1913, 1914
and 1915. Illness prevented her from
defending her title during the 1916
tournament. In addition to the Oregon
! atata championships, sne has won
i many titles in the tournaments played
1 m Vancouver, seaitie ana lacoma.
Miss Livingstone is consistent in her
playing, more so than a number of the
men In this part of the country, and it
is believed that she could hold her
own with the best of her sex in eastern
tournaments.
Ranking ahead of Miss Livingstone
in the national list were Miss Molla
Bjustedt, Mrs. Edward Raymond, Miss
Evelyn Sears and Miss Anita "Meyers.
The creation of a Pacific Northwest
asociation. as provided for In the
amendments recommended in the re
port or the executive committee of the
United States Lawn Tennis associa
tion, will give the northwest a chance
to come Into its own in the tennis
world. The new district will govern
the players of Oregon, Washington and
parts of Idaho and Montana. Hereto
fore, Oregon and Washington have been
a part of the Pacific association, which
Includes Colorado, Ltah, Nevada and
Wyoming.
This amendment, which undoubtedly
will be passed at the annual meeting
In February will mean that the north
west will have a representative on the
executive committee and also will have
a chance to enter a team in the na
tional doubles championship. In the
past, to participate in the national dou
bles, Oregon and Washington players
would have to play against the Cali
fornia players. The passing of this
amendment would be an incentive for
the younger players to take up the
game.
Junior tournaments In the city will
be numerous next year, as the result
of the executive committee's action, a
number of the veteran tennis players
having decided to get out and assist
the youngsters.
The northwest, according to infor
mation, will vote almost solidly In fa
vor of the proposed amateur ruling,
which will be threshed out at the an
nual meeting of the U. S. L. T. A, For
years this question has been a thorn
In the side of the net association and
the sooner the decision Is made, the
better for the game, the players say.
The new rule will result in players
employed In selling tennis goods,
those earning their livelihood from the
game and those accepting expense mon-

Exercise to be correct must include
as much expansion as contraction. It
must also be general in character and
not confined to a few groups of mus
cles. The callsthenlc exercises as il
lustrated in today's article will be
found particularly valuable In the de
velopment of balance, and also call Into
play most of the larger groups of mus
cles. In starting, assume a correct stand
ing position as In figure 1.
In figure 2 raise the arms to the
level of the shoulders bending the arms
at the elbows. This will bring the
forearms horizontal. The fingers
should be extended and kept well to
gether, the hands pointed inward, tips
of the fingers about three inches apart.
At the same time raise the left foot
upward so that the upper leg will form
a right angle with the body, the knee
should be flexed and the toes pointed
downward.

BASKING NOW IN
WHITE'S PLACE
Chicago Fans Transfer Their
Allegiance to New Box
ing Luminary,
Charlie White no longer is the Idol
of Chicago fight fans. His place in
the sun has been taken by Joe Welling,
who has been forging to the front so
rapidly In lightweight ranks recently.
Welling, who really hails from Broad
way, is being touted as the man Fred
die Welsh will have to fight for the
title sooner or later, and to that end
Welling and his manager, Jimmy John
ston, will start a campaign as soon as
they get back east, following several
matches In this part of the country.
Welling is confident that he will be
selected for the first long distance bout
In which Welsh engages. Welling
says he is one of the few of the pres
ent crop of lightweights who can make
i 133 pounds ringside without trouble.
ofThat.,s .b !weSt wejh,1 We,sn n
possibly demand, says Welling, so why
should he not be the one to fight the
Britisher for the title?
This bird Frankie Whitney, whom
Welling fought in Kenosha the other
night, is one of the few fighters who
mixes things with his right band ex
tended. Most of the time he has both
stuck out, and the result is his jaw
is constantly protected and the other
fellow has a hard time getting inside
his guard. Whitney can't do much
along the knockout line by fighting
that way, but his short-arm punches
can cause a lot of damage to an op
ponent's face. In addition he uses a
peculiar twist to his blows, which are
very painful and not only bruise but
cut the skin when they land.'

New York, Dec 16. (I. N. 8.)
Some of the bludgeon wlelders In the
National league who failed to sting the
ball safely as many times as they had
hoped to during the 1916 season have
an alibi.
Yes, boy! And that alibi can be
found in the pitching records of the
