All America Team.

In the Christmas number of the Harper's Weekly, Casper Whitney has his customary article on the "All America" foot ball team. The eleven as he makes it up is as follows:

Thayer of U. of P. full back

King of Princeton half-back

Brewer of Harvard half-back

McCormic of Yale quarter-back

Lewis of Harvard centre

Wheeler of Princeton guards

Waters of Harvard gurds

Wallis of Yale tackles

Newell of Harvard tackles

Hinckey of Yale ends

Hallowell of Harvard ends

Substitutes - L. Bliss, Osgood, Butterworth and Poe back of the line, and Mackie, Adams, Newton, Winters and Schoff in the line.

The most striking feature of this makeup is the fact that Brewer is given a place on the team as half back, while Laurie Bliss is named only as a substitute The principal reason given for this is Brewer's great superiority in catching, which was so well shown in the Springfield game.

It. will be seen by the above that, excluding substitutes, Harvard has five places to Yale's three Including substitutes the honors are evenly divided, each college having six players.
