ALL-STAR PRO TEAM IS NAMED Six Chicago Bears, Three Detroit Players Are Selected Chicago. Dee. 5 (UP) The pick : of the nation's fastest football ’ league—the mythical All-American l professional footbail team — Is ; named today by the t'nlted Press. The team lias 11 players plus ‘ Jack Manders, and was selected ! with the assistance of coaches, players, officials and scouts of the 1 national professional league. Man--1 ders couldn't be left off. and there i wasn't a fifth place in the back- | field for him. so he was given tho I position of "honor man." ‘ Tho first team backfield is com- ' posed of Earl (Dutchl Clark. De- ' troP cnnrtnrbnck: Beattie Feath-j • rs. Chicago Bears' halfhack; Cliff Battles. Boston halfnaek. and Bronko Nagnrski, Chicago Bears’ i fnlll nek Add .Manders, the great- ! est n’ace kick »r of the decade and I perhaps in. history, and you have i a coach's dream of (he ‘‘perfect | j backfield." The line to go in front of this! i backfield is be'ter than good. It's great. The center is Mel Hein, a ' star at roving behind the lino, bringing down runners and batting ■ down or intercom’ng passes, Tho two guards are Grover Emerson. I whose submarine tactics and l 1 powerful charges have caused i many a headache to the oppod- : 'ion's defense, and Dr. Joe Kopcha. I a rinping. slashing terror on of- j I sense and defense. Link Lyman, the daddy of all I • tnck'es, and Turk Edwards, Bos- ' I ton's 24rt-ponnd powerhouse, are I ■ named at tackles. Bi’l Hewitt. Bears' end and on - ! of the greatest players in the ; league, is named at one end. That ■ selection was a foregone com-lu- • ion. The other end is a surprise. Buster Mitchell of Detroit. He's the only wingman the Bears haven’t fooled or flanked this yea-. ! WWAWL The Portland Panthers brought the winning streak of the Decatur i Commodores to an abrupt finish | i last night at Portland, dropping I the Commies by a 21 to 13 count. ! Local fans who attended tell us j the game was 'lousy ' —oOo— The Commodores will have a ■ chance to climb back among the 'winners Friday night when they battle the Kirkland Kangaroos at 'h« local gvm. Kirkland has won seven of eight games this season and has a small, but exceptionally fast quintet. —oOo — Friday niaht the Yellow Jackets hit the road for the first time this season. After winning their three opening games by decisive margins, the Jackets will journey far from the home firesides to ♦ankle the LaPorte Slicers at LaPorte. The Decatur-LaPorte name last season was one of the best plaved on the local floor, the Jackets winning by , a scant margin. —oOo— Announcement has been made that the Berne-St. Marv’s of Huntington contest, originally scheduled for Saturday night, has been moved tip two uTfys. The game will he plaveq at Huntington Thursday nieht.

Judge Stone at Madison said that the time of Mrs. Gillis' return there 1 remains to be determined. He said that his insistence as to jurisdiction over the parole-break-ing widow of the gangster also applies to Marie Conforti. a consort of John Dillinger's gangsters when they fled a federal ambush at Lit- . tie Bohemia.
