F. M. F rench,' jeweler. Albany. . The matter of choosing an all star team this season from the colleges ot Oregon, Washington and Idaho, has been a difficult matter. This is what the Ore gonian says regarding the selec tion: 'Owing to the increased num ber of well-coached devens in the Pacific Northwest, the task of selecting an all-star college team from ihe college elevens is by no means an easy one. The selec tions have been made, after con sultation with many well-known football authorities, and the men have been chosen from the ranks of regular college elevens. Those against whom charges of professionalism, uufair conduct both on and off the field, and lack of bona-fide student stand ing, have not been considered. The record ot the whole season's play has been the main factor in the selection, and the , fact that a man ' played on a winning or losing team has not been, taken into consideration." , The ; following is the line-up of the all-star team: Left end, Meldrum, TJ. O. Right end, Chandler, U. O. Left tackle, Rogers, Idaho.- Right tackle, Sigrist, U. W. Left guard, Thomas, Idaho. Right guard,. Scherer, UW. Center, Walker, O. A. C. Quarterback, Speidel, U. W. Left halt, Goodrich, U. O. Right half, McElmon, U .W. Fullback and captain,. Pilking ton, O. A. C. . ' The Oregonian says that for the position of center rush, big Walker, of O A C, is by far the best man. His weight and speed would win for him a position on any team. Lantz, TJ. W., and Pilkingtoq, O A' C, are the lead ing candidates for fullback,, but the latter is undoubtedly the bet ter man for the position. - With Pilkington m the lineup, the All Northwest eleven would not only have a fierce line-plunging full back but also a high-class punter and a sagacious field captain.
