BIG-THREE 11 IS PICKED BY DICK MILLER I Famous Sribe Announces; Mythical All-Indiana Eleven Today <By Dick Miller) ( Indianapolis, Nov, 23. Notre Dame boasting another mythical championship contender, and Purdue, deprived of a share of the big ten title only because of a scoreless tie game, drew nationwide attention to Hoosierdoni's major collegiate football teams i during the season just ending. Coach Elmer Layden’s power-1 house at Notre Dame caused many veteran fans to recall all the great : Irish teams of the Rockne era. Purdue lost only to Minnesota who in turn lost to Northwestern in the big ten race. When coach Mai Elward's Boilermakers endeav- . ored to take a game with lowa in stride caught the Hawkeyes in a ' savage mental attitude because of , campus revolution, the best Pur- ; due could do was a scoreless dead- | lock. The net result was that ■ Minnesota squeezed into the title i seat because the Bophers won one I more game than Purdue and Michigan who shared second berth. Notre Dame finds Southern California the only remaining obstacle in the path to a claim on the national title. The Irish are several deep with stars for most positions. During the season the Laydenmen rolled on to victory simply because they had in reserve the player or the play necessary to win. Almost each Saturday brought forth a new ball toting “ace." The famous Notre Dame “.perfect’’ play functioned now and then to spring loose a half back for a touchdown jaunt. Then there were ' touchdown passes and besides a j couple of games were won because of place kicks —an unusual method for Notre Dame to employ. Probably the greatest thing about the Purdue team this year ■ was the fact the Boilermakers ■ never gave up. There were times i the team appeared “licked" but ' Elward's charges had a faculty of striking back in the late moments with an attack that couldn't be denied. Indiana had the leanest season since Alvin "Bo" McMillin took over the head coach duties. Before the campaign opened some rated the downstaters as one of the strongest teams in the country. Why. I do not know. It was event a great deal of the potential strength of the McMillinmen

However, It was ' not the usual story of untried , sophomores that spoiled the crimson season. It was injuries. The i second year men came through i splendidly as long as they lasted' ;in action. ( ‘ The three major Hoosier teams f were not overloaded with great ends but Brown and Petrick were , standouts in every game played. ! ' jAt the tackle berths there was ( ! greatness galore. Ed Beinor un- ■ doubtedly will receive considerable all-American recognition. Joe Mii halos Purdue and Bob Haak of I I Indiana already have been chosen on several all-big ten selections, ! 'lt is my opinion that the play of; i both Mihai and Beinor was a maj- | ior factor in the success enjoyed by Notre Dame and Purdue. The good guards were not abundant although McGolrick. captain of the Irish, was a great leader and Logan a workhorse in defeat at Indiana. Verplank was handicap-1 ped by injuries. One of the hardest selections to i make was between Humphrey and Longhi at center. Both were strong And undoubtedly Sitko, Brown, Saggau, Brock, Graham and Hen- I nis weer the six most outstanding l acks in the state. Graham was in g tough spot at Indiana with inexperience all around him. Few realize the importance and steadiness Steve Sitko and Ted Hennis gave to their team. Both we«.r main I cogs. To me Sitko. Brock. Saggau and Brown hold an edge ail things considered. Maybe you wil like Graham or Hennis better, or maybe you are one of the many Stevenson, . Sheridan. Clasen. Byelene. etc. supporters.

(with'a cup to the best animal actor) has a new idea. Bogart wants to give a prize to the art director who creates the most striking inanimate object with a plot significance in a picture. For example, the palace of ShangriLa in “Lost

“ ••• — V — » Horizon.” Or Connie Bennett's streamlined car in "Topper.” Or the ship in “Captains Courageous.” Bogart will welcome your suggestions. Lynn Bari, Fox beauty who reminds you of Claudette Colbert, says she will marry Agent Walter Kane before Christmas. Probably as soon as she finishes her curreht picture. Sartorial getup of Cecil B. De Mille was the real sensation as “Union Pacific” got under way the other day. The director wore riding boots, a suit of hunter’s green, a green shirt, a green necktie with yellow figures. On the little finger of his left hand was an emerald set in iron. In his buttonhole the red rosette of the Order of the Holy Sepulchre. Went out to Twentieth Century-| Fox to help welcome Bob Ripley to Hollywood. Jean Hersholt, as toastmaster, supplied the biggest howl at the luncheon. "Strange as it seems," he said, I have been asked to introduce the guest of honor. “Strange as It Seems,” of course, is the name of a rival feature. Joan Davis and her husband, Si, are off for a personal appearance in Detroit. Which is a good excuse to revive the star's swell line at the time she injured her back in a movie scene. In intense agony, Joan looked up at her husband and moaned: "Si, do you suppose I'll ever be able to take a bow again?" It is happening at the Paramount studio . . . one of the dramas so characteristic of Hollywood. ... A year ago, It began, really, when eight girls were put on tryout contracts. . . . Among them was Joyce Matthews, daughter of a rich eastern family. . . . Another of the girls was Cheryl Walker, fresh from serving as

queen of Pasadena’s Tournament of Roses. . . . The months passed and. with them, the high hopes of some of the girls. . . a But, the other day, Joyce Matthews got a break. She was chosen for a featured role in “Parents on Probation.” . . . Luck wasn't so kind to Cheryl Walker. The studio dropped her option. . . . But the one-time queen of the Tournament of Roses is no quitter. She also is working in the same picture—as a standin to Joyce Matthews. The waiters at Maxie Rosenbloom's night club are all ex-vau-devillians and maybe that explains why they are so generous in helping a talented youngster get ahead. Anyway, every waiter is contributing part of his earnings so that Virginia Mathews, a pretty singer at the club, can take a series of lessons under the great coach of torch singers, Al Siegal. The three-foot high Sicilian donkey that Leo Carrillo gave to Jane Withers is in disgrace. The little animal had become so fond of Jane it followed her around like a dog. The other day, it followed her right into the front door and, just then, the telephone rang. It was the first time the donkey had ever heard a telephone. It went crazy, kicking right and left. A Chippendale chair and an antique cabinet full of ornaments were smashed in the melee. The Sicilian donkey now is penned up in the back yard. Frank Fay’s mother is very 111. He has arrived here by plane to be at her bedside. . . . M-G-M Producer Lou Ostrow, seriously injured in a motor crash, still has
