Purdue debris . PHANT, E. Q.—Class 1914, position right half, weight100, height 5 feet 7 inches, age 19. Number of yearson team, 2. Ollie, the blonde athlete, who made aname for himself during the season of 1911, as a danger-ous man when carrying the ball, not only proved thatthis was so, but earned for himself a place on the All-Western eleven last fall. Ollie, perhaps, gained moreground than any other one man in the Conference anddid so principally through his wonderful dodging ability,coupled with his fleet-footedness and his nerve. Hisusefulness on the team did not alone lie in his ability tocarry the ball, but as an all-around man his equal onStuart field has yet to be seen. All year he has beenseen catching punts and running them back with goodconsistent gains. His toe saved the day in the Illinoisgame when, with only a few seconds to play, he scoreda wonderful drop kick. His punting was above par allseason. His passing, too, was good, so that he is easilythe best all-around player in \\ [NSTON OliphantWINSTON, C. S — Class 1914, position tackle, weight 187,height 0 feet 1 inch, age 23. Number of years on team,2. Chuck was again seen at his old place, righttackle, a place that he filled well. As an offensive man,Chuck was especially useful and was called uponmany times to carry the ball, which he usually did, andmade the yards necessary. He is a player of unusuallygood nature, and the kind of an athlete that Purdue isglad to claim. Winston has another year of football-playing for Purdue, and following the rule, it should behis best—at any rate, we are expecting him to put uphis best game and make larger gains in the season ot1913. BERNS, J. E— Class 1914, position guard, weight 200,height 6 feet 2 inches, age 22. Number of years on team,2. Bobby is a giant in size and strength, and posessesall the qualities that go to make a football player. Eventhough a big man, he is fast on his feet and gets himselfbetween the man with the ball and the goal
