Nearly every season uncovered, at least one player who stood head and shoulders above every other man in the game. Last year it was Charley Brickley. the marvelous Harvard fullback. . The 1913 season developed a great number of great fullbacks and halfbacks, yet not one could compare with Brickley.

Nor has anyone ever come to the fore in the fifteen years since he quit the game who can drop kick with such unerring accuracy or from such long distances as O'Dea. He rarely failed to score when he drop kicked within the fifty yard line and ais punts used to average around sixty yards. Walter Hkersall, the Chicago quarterback, second only to O'Dea in kicking prowess, is another whose memory will be cherished in the football world Then there is "Budge" Hefflerlnger, the giant Yale guard of the old day, "Snake" Ames, the greatest quarterback that Princetou ever had, Ted Coy the great Yale fullback of a few years ago, Sammy White of Princeton, who beat Yale and Harvard in one year. Trafford the old Harvard star, who played in 18891890, is down in the

football records as having kicked a greater number of goals, from long range, than any man that ever played football on an eastern gridiron. Bill Hollenbach, of Pennsylvania, DeWitt of Princeton.

The condition as stated above, came

INDIAN TROOPS GAIN TREIICHESJiEy LOST London Admits Colonial Forces Smashed by Fierce Attack of Germans. BY HERBERT TEMPLE. LONDON, Nov. 26. Re-capture of

trenches taken by the Germans from the Indian troops is announced in an official press bureau today. It has been rumored here for some time that the Indians were being hard pressed by the Germans, but today's official statement was the first direct confirmation of these reports.

"The situation is unchanged," said the official statement. "The Indian troops have retaken the trenches they lost. They captured three German

officers, over 100 men, one mortar and

three machine guns.

"The Germans got within nine miles

of Warsaw on their drive toward that city. If they had been able to occupy the town and seize the bridges over the Vistula, they would have establish-1 ed an enormous political and military i a 9..An.nrm I I. I .1 1 r 1 . 1 "I Vl .1 111! Anil, Vknnv.

PARIS, Nov. 26. The welcome of

a hero was given to Lieutenant S. V

Sippe, one of the air-men who took part in the raid upon Friederichshafen,

Germany, upon his arrival here today

from Belfort. "We undoubtedly did extensive damage to the Zeppelin factory and any airships that were moored there at the time," said Lieutenant Sippe. "We dropped eleven bombs in all at close range. Some of them were thrown when we were only a few yards above the roof of the factory. The weather last Saturday was very misty and this enabled us to fly low. At the same time it prevented the Germans from seeing us. They had to guess at our location by the sound of our motors. But for the compasses we carried we would undoubtedly have lost our way during the raid."

BY HERBERT TEMPLE LONDON, Nov. 26. When the conflicting reports from Berlin and Petrograd are carefully digested there is only one result: "That the conflict in Poland has not yet reached a decision. Berlin admits a check in the main conflict due to Russian reinforcements, but also asserts that the Germans have made progress at some points. Petrograd reports say that the Russians have compelled the Germans to retreat Southwest of LowlcE, but they make no claim of overwhelming victory. There is no doubt Russia has against the Germans the largest number of troops that It could transport to the front. Germany is likewise reinforcing its army. The German cavalry will have a worthy opponent In the Cossacks. The dispatches say that General Rennenekampf, the Russian commander whose raid into East Prussia early in the war electrified the world and spread fear even in the imperial city of Berlin, is now In command of the RuBsian cavalry in Poland. If this is true, the. German cavalry will have great difficulty In its work. General Rennenekampf Is already reported to have directed a number of raids that struck the very rear of th German aries and cut lines of communication.

CLUBS OPEN CRAFTS DISPLAY AT SCHOOL

Rennenekampf is said to have inaug

urated his operations by the dash into Posen that resulted in the destruction of German lines. It was a feat of which even Rennenekampf might well be proud. The Petrograd correspondent of the Times says that the German army has been broken up into several parts. His telegram follows: "According to unofficial information reaching here the German army of

400,000 which began an advance be 1 tween the Vistula and Wartha rivers has been broken up into several parts, one of which was compelled to divert its course southward and another northward. Apparently in each case, ! the Russians succeeded in getting be- ' hind these disjointed corps and Inflicting heavy losses. The Germans are believed to have sustained severe reverses at Brzeziny and Tuszyn. It is impossible to give any approximate , figures now."
