United Press 1 1 Staff Correspondent Chicago, Nov. 22—(U.R) -It was a dizzy Big Ten football season and the 1938 all-conference squad selected today by the United Press reveals the reason. Five teams completely domlnat-1 ed the two honor rolls. Not since L93L has there been such a balance of" power which enabled the ; first division teams to defeat each other am! keep the standings in a I , turmoil week after week. The five — Minnesota’s chain-■ pions. Michigan. Purdue. Wiscon-*, sin, and Northwestern —each plac-1 , ed two men on the first team and , Indiana landed the other position.!

AU but Michigan's sophomore triple threat sensation were veterans this season, but Moore, nominated at quarterback instead of his regular right half- j back position, was the only member who made last year's team. The first line had Frank Pet- 1 rick of Indiana and Northwest- j ern's Capt. Cleo Diehl at the ends. Joe Mihai of Purdue and i Bob Voigts. Northwestern, at the ’ackles. Ralph Heikkinen, Michi i can's all-American candidate and 1 Capt. Francis Twedell of Minne-1 sota at the guards and big Jack Murray ,>f Wisconsin at center. Failure of the Big Ten to come | up with a team of national im- 1 pot tance may lead the all-Ameri-: can selectors to pass up confer-, ence talent, but Heikkenen. out-! standing choice on last Reason's United Press team, could be the . exception. Heikkinen played “down under" | where his stardom was seen or, felt only by the players them-1 selves. The Michigan star and I the guard who faced him in a ; brilliant duel at Minnesota. Twe- i dell, were the two outstanding j choices of the year. Both were included for the second straight season and easily distanced the* second team selections, Lynn Hov- ( land of Wisconsin and Frank By-1 kowski. Purdue, in the 1938 vot-* ing. Murrav who had a field day I backing tp the line against Northwestern, beat out John , Hainan. Northwestern junior center, by a close margin. Murray's offensive blocking earned the position. Voigts and Minal also were! strong choices. Mihai, Purdue's i iron man, figured heavily in the' highly successful season of the Boilermakers both on offense and defense. Voigts .essentially an, ' offensive lineman, sparked as a * vicious tackler all this year. Bob Haak. Indiana's veteran, and Don Siegel of Michigan were voted second team positions. The ends were more difficult. Diehl started slowly but rapidly shouldered the job of leading Northwestern and became an important cog in the Wildcat de-1 sense.

Nov. 22. * —(U.R)—All of my readers who . have atlases or children who are | making better than B grades in geography, please wire me collect I and tell me where I am. I am ‘ supposed to be on a football tour, . ' and my instructions call for me j never to be far away from rac- , i coon coats, sophomores, and backs | with injured knees. But here I am in Cusihuiriachic, which looks j like a typewriter exercise when written, and sounds like a trunk falling down stairs when pronounced by the citizens of the place. Obviously, this isn't going to be a sport column. I have no doubt j but what Cusihuiriachic has a potential rose bowl team, because 5 every town I have visited since I , left New York has had one. but 1 unfortunately I can't ask about it. ! Because I don’t speak Mexican. My parents wanted me to speak Mexican, heaven knows, but I was i a willful boy and took up the I harpsichord instead. That was about the time Pancho Villa was ! playing hare and hounds with a young American army captain, I ! John J. Pershing. I am in Mexico because Emily 1 Post is not riding with me. What I mean as, I took the wrong fork—of a road. Instead of going l to Arizona 1 turned off into Mexico ; and so you can imagine my sur- i ' prise when the lights I saw in the distance, and imagined to be those burning in the ranch of Clarence * Buddington Kelland, Turned out to I be those of Cusihuirachic. Armed with my haFpsichord and scarcely enough of the Mexican | I language to season a bowl of chile, i I I was at a loss in this town. But, ; j readers. I tried my best to get you 1 a sports story, and entered into : conversation with the first citizen I encountered. , He was leaning against a “panatella” puffing on an “adobe.” Which is Mexican for cheroot. “Matador," I called, “ou est le | football gamey?” He j’ Jk his head, shifted from one bare foot to another, and said nothing. “Enchilada! con carne! tabsco’," I called sharply. He continued to pay no attention. Finally I let him have all the 1 rest of the Mexican in my vocabuI lary. I drew myself up to my full five feet ten, waistline 38, glove size 11, ear-muff size 28, and barked: “Peon, aztec, frijole, buenos dias, tequilla, where in hell am I?” This brought him to. He eyed me with Interest and finally he said: “ Butch, If you're looking for the best hotel, it’s two blocks up, turn to the right at the first traffic light, and then go down another block. It’ll be on the left.” “Thank you.” I said, inwardly pleased that my master of a strange tongue had at last brought results. I put the car in low, and waved a good bye. “Screwball," he called with the most delightful Mexican accent. So, here today and gone manana, my friends. (Copyright 1938 by UP.)

COACHES COULD CALL SIGNALS Bo McMillen Makes Pro- | posal As Indiana U. Letters Given Blomlngton. Ind.. Nov 22— <U.P> l James Logan of Indianapolis j ■ will lead Indiana University's i ' Crimson football warriors next year. 33 grid lettermen decided at a banquet last night. They also voted Robert Haak of Hammond the. team's most valuable player. Logan transferred to the Hoosier school after being told at the University of Illinois he was “too little” to play football. He weighs ( 190. Coach Bo McMillin. speaking before the players and guests, asserted that he will urge the; national football coaches’ rules i committee next month to let the coaches call the plays, taking the i responsibility from the quarterback. The former all-American quarterback of Centre College’s “Praying Colonels" said the job of : quarterbacking should be placed! where the responsibility belongs i —"with the coach." McMillin. a famous jokester. ’ was asked later if he was serious * about his proposal. | “Os course I’m serious about it." he replied. “And Um dead in 'earnest when I say I think it i ' should be done. | 'lt is unfair for these boys, j ■ many of them in ‘teen ages, to have to spend endless hours try-1 ing to master signals and then > spend the same amount of time as the other plftye rs in practice. "It should be given to a more mature man. and not to a boy who may have 80.600 fans jeering him. “By letting the coach caili the plays, it would speed up the game and make it more interesting." McMillin's plan would have the coach call the play in the huddle and then leave the field before the I play is executed. * Awarded varsity letters were: * Ray Bringle and Floyd Tipmore. Elkhart.
