HERE'S ANOTHER ALL-AMERICAN By Henry McLemore. UP Staff Correspondent New York. Dec. I.— <U.R) —The old Herr Professor breezed into my office today and planked down an expense account of $743,888.19. I promptly told him there wasn't that milch, money in the world. "Oh yes. there is.' he replied. “There must be, for that is just the amount I have spent since; September 11 in gathering information tor my lootball predictions. 1 brought along an itemized account, here it is: Stamps $41,333.02 Corn (cracked i for carrier pigeons 17,429.81 Entertainment 685,125.36 , “Who did you entertain. Professor. the Russian army?" we ask- <&. •“Nope.'' he answered. "My scouts. Man alive, do you think 1 could I (rave wound up the season with an aVerage of .821 without some outside aid? What is more, my scouts Ipve enabled me to assemble prob-1 ably the finest all-America team of all time. And just as soon as you j settle that expense account you can have it." Not having the money on us. we offered the Professor a first niort-| gage on Brooklyn bridge instead.

MILLER NAMES BEST PLAYERS Indianapolis, Dec. I—(U.R) —Five Notre Dame players, four Purdue ‘ men. one from Indiana and Don I Wheaton of DePauw were given j berths on the All-Indiana football team selected today by Dick Miller. Indianapolis Times football i writer. On the second team, DePauw. | with two positions, was the only ■ school to gain more than one, i place. , I Miller pointed out that there, was an abundance of sparkling j I backfield performers during the past season and the job of naming I four on the first team was a diffi-| | cult one. but the field on line-! j candidates was small. Wheaton, Hie DePauw flash ■ from Wheaton, 111., is the out-, ‘ standing quarter back in the state. I Miller said, in picking him over ; such candidates as Pardonner at ■ Purdue. Jones at Indiana, and, i Jaskwich at Notre Dame. "Wheaton was the spark behind ] the DePauw team.” Miller said. “He made yards when his team mates took the the role of spec-; tatofrs rather than helpers. He I gained ground against every team.! ; and had everything. He called signals, punted, tackled well and ■ ran interference in a real fashion" ! In mentioning Pardonner and i Piper of Manchester for the quar-! ter back post. Miller said "Pardonner looked poor against Wisconsin and we feel his chance i to stay in there all season was more because Jack White was on rhe bench injured and not because Pardonner excelled greatly. Piper. the little rambler of Manchester. this fellow was one of the fin-, est runners on the gridiron.” The selections were as follows: .

ALL-WESTERN | TEAMS NAMED Chicago. Dec. I. — (U.R) — From more than 1,000 players in midwestern football territory, the United Press has selected three myth- ; ical all star teams composed of 33 individuals who by their con- | sistent excellency of play throughout the season deserve ranking as i the greatest gYoup in this region. They present by no means all the outstanding players, but. on the whole, they are the pick of the midwests 1931 gridiron crop. A list of all the great anti near great players in Big Ten, Big Six, and Missouri Valley territory would be well nigh endless. Seven players from the Big Ten. ' two from Notre Dame, one from the Big Six and one from a little loWa college are represented on the first team. Notre Dame placed six men on the three teams, more than any other school. Northwestern and Purdue came next with four each. Brief descriptions of the players named on the first team follow: Moss Punter, pass cathcer, ball carrier and great defensive player. ! I Here's one of his typical plays: kicked out of bounds on Indiana's I 6-yard line from his own 40-yard line, then blocked a kick on the next play and recovered it for a ■ touchdown. Marvill — Steadiest, most powerful play in Northwestern's strong line, weights 225 pounds, and is ! fast. Recovers kicks down the field like an end. Star at opening holes for Rentner to slip through. Munn—Best defensive lineman in Big Ten. Big. fast and versatile. I i Called out of line to punt and carry I ball. Miller —Deadliest tackler in Big i Ten. Played almost perfect game I against Northwestern, holding together an otherwise none too strong ‘line from tackle to tackle. Zeller—An all round star on a losing team who played one of the year's greatest games against Northwestern, seldom maneuvered' out of position and has uncanny | ability to sift through and break up : plays. Kurth—Greatest all around lineman in the midwest who was never (outplayed and who was at his best against Northwestern and Southlern California. It was not until he , left the game that Southern California started its winning drive. Cronkite—The Big Six's best player. A bulwark on the defense I and a miraculous pass catcher. Cramer—Runner, punter, passer and field general. Spark plug of Ohio State team which otherwise was only fair. Outstanding sophomore in Big Ten. Schwartz —Notre Dame's greati est'back since George Gipp. He! (does everything, and all a little bet-| Iter when the going gets tough. Richards — Obscured on little I Simpson college of Indianaola. la. i 'He could make any team in the . country. An all around star who might have had his name in the head lines if lie had played on a major college team. Rentnet —Rig Ten's most dangerous runner since Red Grange, best passer in Big Ten until he broke i his thumb early in November. With special defenses built to stop him Rentner still was able to outgain | all other backs. United Press all mid-western I I football selections: First Team . End —Moss, Purdue.

St. Joe Has Game The St. Joseph eighth grade basII kethall team will play the Monroe I eighth grade team in a preliminary game at the Catholic High School, | Wednesday night at 6:30 o'clock. 11 o —
r iwWta:
The House of David, professionlai basketball team, with long whisi kers and all, will come to Decatur I Saturday night for a game with |’.he Decatur Cloverleaf netters. —oOo — Bob Hill, manager of the local independent aggregation said today that prices for the game would be the same as for other Cloverleaf net games. Adults will be admitted for 25 cents. This is probably the lowest price the spectators ever have been privileged to see the fast Benton Harbor aggregation. —oOo — Every year the House of David netmen capture more than twothirds of their games. —oOo — Regardless of the outcome it will be a great game to see. —oOo— The Clcverleafs play Bippus tonight at 8:30 o’clock. It’s a regular league game and the local team is bent on bolstering up its season's average. —oOo — The county boxing tourney drew a good sized crowd last night, and indications are that in a few more attempts the auditorium will be jammed for boxing matches. The big athletic feature of the county Friday night will be the | Berne-Kirkland game at Kirkland. Bill Bryan. Kangaroo coach called Basketbawls at 5 o'clock this morning and said his team looked unbeatable in early morning practice. . , —oOo— j 1 At any rate the Berne-Kirk-land game will be more than worth the money—and Bill’s saving a few seats for Decatur fans who will be without a game Friday night. — oOo — The Yellow Jackets go to Winamac and the Commodores go to Monroeville Friday. —oOo — Tomorrow night, the Commodores meet Celina here — Coach Laurent has been drilling his team on offense —and wish a couple of more players eligible, the Commodores should mark up win number 2. —oOo — The Curtismen are drilling every day for a big week-end. Winamac and Mishawaka in two successive nights—Some assignment. Coach Curtis will take 10 men on the double trip this week-end. so he'll have plenty of utility strength. —oOo— BEAT CELINA! BEAT MONROEVILLE! —oOo — BEAT WINAMAC! —-000 — BEAT MISHAWAKA! Decatur Cloverleafs have dropped to fourth place in the Wabash league — but it’s probably only temporarily, for when the locals get together—Jt’s going to be too pad for a lot of teams. —oOo — Tonight will be a good time to turn out and see the local independent team play—A good game is promised and the Cloverleafs deserve the town’s support. • —oOo— The Central and St. Joe Eighth grades are batting away in preparation for the annual city series—and may the best team win. RENEW SCRAP ON GAS RATES (CONTINUED FROM RAGE ONE) ing. East Chicago, Munster, Highland and adjacent territory is directly contrary to public rights in that it operates to prevent a sub- • stantlal reduction in rates which the company is ready and willing to make if permitted to bill all consumers on a Therm basis. When the Therm system was instituted at Michigan City and otj»er towns in that territory, the peti- ’ lion read, the heating value of the gas was increased from 500 B. T. U.'s to 1.000 B. T. U.’s per cubic foot. The petitio nset forth that the order directing it to revert to the cubic foot system forced a change of 43 per cent in existing rates ! without a hearing, which, it conJ tended, is illegal and unconstitutional. It held that a similar condition was in effect at Newcastle.
14 NATIONS MAY WIN 220 RACE Editor's note; This is the seconi ; of a series discussing Alympic prosj pects. —United Press Associations. By Virgil Pinkley ' United Press Staff Correspondent London, — (UP) — Sensational running coupled with great courage [ will be required of the athlete who i wins the 200 meter race in the I Tenth Olympic Games. At the pre- ' sent time 35 runners, representing I 14 countries, must be considered as | possible winners. George Simpson, Eddie Tojan and Uy Leland of the United States; I 11 Imut K irnig. Jonath and Geerling of Germany; Percy Williams of Canada; the South African. J Jourbert; S. E. Englehart of England; C. Rodrequez of Cuba; A. Jarvinen of Finland, and Shigenori Osawa and Ryutoku of Japan are the leading contenders. The final race will probably find Simpson and Talan meeting the challenge of Kornig and Jonath and possibly Jourbert for first place. Kornig is the only runner named who competed in the 1928 games and won a place. H - finished fourth in a race won by Percy Williams. Should both Simpson and Kornig confine their efforts to the 200 metres the world's record is likely to be broken. The race will be run tn a straight track. Geo.ge Simpson gets away faster than his German rival, but lacks the stamina. Simpson’s best time for 220 yards Is 20.6 seconds, while Koenig's is 21 Seconds for 200 meters (218 yards, 2 feet). Both Eddie Tolan and Cy Leland have marks of seconds for 220 yards. Hector Dyer and Ralph Metcalfe. another pair of United States stars, might seriously challenge any if the men named. Dyer’s best tiaie for 220 yards is 20.8 seconds and Metcalf's 21 seconds. Great Britain’s leading entry, S. Z. Englehait. is suffering fr 'tn a pulled muscle Injury almost identical to the one that threatens to keep Percy Williams, Canada's double sprints winner at Amsterlam. out of the final.

If they failed, he said, the government would be 'forced to impose a provisional settlement, "for we are determined' not to allow this to impede our progress." Gandhi predicted the failure of the conference several weeks ago when he was unable to settle the 'complicated differences of the Hindus and Moslems. Gandhi sat staring blankly when MacDonald began reading his statetnent. which required 30 minutes. Later he turned toward Mac Don-, laid, resting his chin on his right! | hand.
