1 RIE I EVEI'TO Center
Irie took the position of center this year just as if he had
been brought up to the place. His accuracy in passing the ball
is superb. He possesses the very best of headwork and presence
of mind. He is the pivot around which the whole team moves.
He is in the game for all he is worth and never shirks the duty
placed upon him. We are expecting still more wonderful work of
him next year although this seems almost impossible.
PENTA R I) SAN D1)EFUR Quarterback
"Pin" is the best quarter back in Port Arthur, Orange,
Beaumont, or South Park. The only reason that Quinn of Houston
received the selection for Southeast Texas Eleven was that he had
more experience in that place than Pin had. If "Pin" keeps
up his good work next year he will receive the selection as he
has every thing that a good quarter-back needs. He is the
hardest tackler on the team. His generalship has pulled the team
out of many difficulties. His dodging has astonished many
grandstands and when he sets his heart on doing a thing he'll
do it er perish in the attempt.
RAY JORDAN Right Half
"'Chicken" or "Mr. Jordan" as he is called, made the
largest number of touchdowns for the team this year. He is very
swift of foot and uses his brains constantly. He has the habit
of diving over his opponent and leaving the would be tackler in
bewilderment as to his whereabouts. His opponents were afraid
of him. The way he gets the pig skin and keeps it bids fair to
his being a great University star as well as a High School star.
When it comes to running interference he can not be beat.
