Paul Gerdes, Football Star,
At University of Chicago
Former Central Player Is Pick of Experts as a Future
Great; Shines in Basketball
With the clearing of the smoke of
the season's football battles, another
Harrisburg high school star looms up
as a comer. In athletic circles at the
University of Chicago, Paul Gerdes, a
former Central high boy, and one of
the best basketball centers, Is picked
as a coming football star.
Gerdes played three positions on
the freshman football team at Chicago
this fall, under the direction of Coach
Pat Page. Gerdes won his "19]8"
numerals as an end. The coaches are
sure that with more couching he will
develop Into a mighty football man for
possible varsity use.

LEBMI COACH
PICKS STAR ELEVENS
Six Harrisburg Players in Line-up
Picked From Eastern
Teams
Four Tech high school players, and
one Central man, are included in the
selection of an all-star eastern high
school eleven. The choice is that of
Henry I. Wilder, coach of the Leba- j
non high team. Coach ("Stuffy") Wil
der saw in action all teams from
which he picked his stars. An experi
ence of seven years has given Coach
Wilder much prominence in high
school work.
On the first team, Byers of Central,
and Kutz, Emanuel, Britsch and Beck
are in the line-up. Norris of Steel
ton is selected as captain. Rote, of
Central, is the only Ilarrisburgcr who
Is picked for a second team. Coach
Taggart, of Steelton, Is selected as the
best high school coach. The two all
star teams follow:
First Eleven. Positions.
Elliott, Pottsville L. E.
Cockill, Pottsville L. T.
| Byers, Harrisburg Central L. G.
I Norris, Steelton (captain) C.
; Stumpf, Lancaster R. G.
j Kulz, Harrisburg Tech R. T.
Emanuel, Harrisburg Tech .... R. E.
Britsch. Harrisburg Tech Q. B.
Schwelniler, Reading L. H.

Hynson, Lebanon (captain) ... Q. B.
Rote, Harrisburg Central L. H.
Snell, Reading R. H.
Bechtel, Pottsville 1'". B.
Coach, Taggart, Steelton.
How He Selected the Team
In backing up his choice Coach
Wilder refers to bis selections as not
In accordance with positions pliiyed,
but on the work he has seen and says
It is difficult to choose between Bech
tel, of Pottsville, and Schweimler, of
Reading, while Rote, of Harrisburg
Central, would possibly displace
Britsch, of Tech, if he had played reg
ularly. Continuing Coach Wilder says:
"Emanuel Is a great school-boy end
and Is the best for that position. E.
Nagle, of Lebanon, has more possi
bilities than Elliott, of Pottsville, but
after the Steelton game he was handi
capped by injuries. His presence in
the two Harrisburg games would have
made a great difference to Lebanon.
Harvey, of Minersville, is very fast
and with more experience might win
a place on the first team.
"Cockill and Kutz are in a class of
their own as tackles and get places
with no competition, Kutz being the
best.
"Stumpf, of Lancaster, although
playing a back this year, is known to
be a good man at tackle and guard.
Byers, of Harrisburg Central, has
played some creditable games this
year and would rank next to Stumpf.
"Norris tops the list of centers, but
is closely pressed by Griesbaum, of
Pottsville. Norris would act as cap
tain of the team.
"Hynson Is easily the best general
in the whole squad and would be the
best quarter if he had more speed. He
would captain the second team.
Taggart Best Coach
"Taggart, of Steelton, is the best
high school, coach In the State and it
may be said that -no Pennsylvania
college hits his equal, If we except
Carlisle, W. and J., Lehigh and State.
With equal material, Taggart could
well hold his own In a play of tactics
with any of the four great coaches
of the above four teams.
"Gardner and Dayhoff, of Steelton;
Smeltzer, of Harrisburg Central; Fish
er. of Pottstown, with Short and Al
bert, of Lebanon, are fine school play
ers."
SHAFFER WRITING SPORTS
George K. Shaffer, class of 1912,
Central high school, is writing college
sport news for the Chicago Tribune.
Shaffer, who Is a son of George Shaf
fer, former owner and editor of the
Allison Hill News, Is at the University
of Chicago, and does his newspaper
work during spare moments.
Shaffer Is associated with Walter
Efikersall. the sporting expert on the
Chicago Tribune. Eckcrsall played
on the University of Chicago eleven
in 1904 and was picked as an AU
.Amerlcan quarterback two years.
from any participation in 'varsity
games by strict rules, so Gerdes will
have three years in which to show his
ability. The lad is working hard at
basketball and will be shifted from
his old position at center to forward,
t oach Pat Pago considers Gerdes a
comer. Reports say further that
Gerdes is popular at the Chicago cam
pus. He made a place on the social
committee ol' the freshmen class, one
of the most important committees on
which appointment was possible.
Gerdes has picked up weight since
going west. In Harrisburg he will be
remembered as one of the greatest
center Jumpers who ever played on a
scholastic basketball teanl.
New Villanova Captain
At the annual banquet of the Villa
nova College football team yesterday,
