lall-conference I I ELEVEN CHOSEN ■Six Big Ten Teams Place I Players On Eleven Picked By United Press I Chicigo» Mov. 23. — (UP) — Six j ■western conference schools have contributed players to the 1927 United K res s all-conference selection. These . Elayers, chosen by the writer In col-j ■aboration with a dozen football writ- ( ■p‘ rs m hlg ten territory, were picked En I lie I* B * 3 of tbeir value to their ■team. I rhe smashing Gophers and the Epeedy Wolverines place three men Each on the mythical eleven. Illinois,' ■champion of the big ten because of ■all-around strength, wins two places. | ■Ohio State # Northwestern and Chi■cago each has a single contribution, j I Linemen were harder to allot positions than the backfield players, be , ■cause of the abundant supply of cap-, ■ able forwards. Opinion varied wide■|y in the line selection. I Herb Joesting, big Minnesota full- ■ back, and Benny Oosterbaan, Michi■gan's pass-snaring end were chosen ■ for their positions by every football ■ critic who voted. The juggernaut ■ Joesting, because of his ability as a I leader and because of his brilliant ■ record, is named captain of the ■ eleven. | With Oosterbaan at end is paired I Waldo Fisher of Northwestern who I has played an important part in most I Wildcat advances in the past three I years. Like Oosterbaan he is a brilI liant pass receiver and is down the I field like a streak under punts. GarI land Grange, brother of the famous I "Red." was another outstanding ertd, I while Den Cameron and Kenneth I Haycraft of Minnesota played well I during the season, as did Robin Bell 1 , I of Ohio State. The tackle positions were awarded . Ito Mike Gary of Minnesota and Bas-1 I kowski of Ohio State, who slashed I open the holes through which ball I carriers made substantial gam% all I season long. Capt. Emmerson Nelson of lowa, Hanson of Minnesota and Butch Nowack of Illinois were other fine tacklers. There were many good guards in the big ten. Baer of Michigan undoubtedly earns one assignment, while Hanson of Minnesota, Prentice of Purdue. Trobaugh of Indiana and Dart of Northwestern were big sacI tors in thefr teams’ showings. But, because Capt. BoT> Reitsch of Illinois and Capt Ken Rouse of Chicago were paying in the same year at the same center position one must be given a guard job. Mouse is assigned that place for Reitsch earned his first all-conference center honor last year. And' you can’t keep either one > of an all-star big ten team. Randolph of Indiana and Skeeter Wyman of Northwestern were the other star centers. Randolph is given preference because Wyman was I declared ineligible in midseason. Three of the backfield positions wore "Naturals.” Joesting and "Shorty" Almquist of Minnesota drew almost unanimous votes for fullback and quarterback "Kalamazoo Lou" Gilbert was nearly as popular for a halfback assignment. Judd Timm, the five yard-average line smashing, end-running Illinois back, Capt. Toad Crofoot of Wisconsin, Cotton Wilcox of Purdue, Armil of lowa and Bennett of Indiana were those named for the post, but Timm clinched the honor in the Ohio State game last Saturday, while Crofoot was failing to gain against Chicago. Notre Dame is not a member of the conference, so its star players cannot be included on the mythical teams. —. — o— —. AMERICAN BASKET LEAGUE STANDING Western Division W. L. Pct.
