Notre Dame And Purdue Stars On All - American | NEW YORK, UP —The United Press today presents its 1952 AIIAiherica football team, the 11 college players chosen as the be*t in the land by 260 Sports writers and from all sections of the nation, i [ ' They selected as the country’s finest: \ ! Ends: Bernie Flowers of Purdue and Frank McPhee Os Princeton. iTackles: Dick Modzelewski of Maryland and Hall Miller of Georgia Tech. • i Guards: Elmer Willhoite of Southern California and John Michels of Tennessee. . • Center: Donn Moomaw of UCLA; Baeks: Billy Vessels of Oklahoma. Jack Scarbdth of Maryland, John Lattner of Notre [Dame and Doriald McAuliffe of Michigan State, Ij | ■■ All ire seniors except Lattner, who is a junior, None are repeaters from last year’s All-Amerlca, which was exclusively of seniors, but McPhee was named to the second tpam in 1951 > and Moo;maw to the third. Those selected this year won out over tough competition. The Balloting showed clearly that coh lege football is getting back on its pre-war footing when the caliber of playei> was so high that the voting jvas evenly distributed. In • most seasons since the war there •were four or five standouts, but that was not the case this year. ' Leading the balloting was Vessels, the Oklahoma star who won the Heisman trophy as the out- . standing player in the land, with • 2,138 points out of a possible 2,860. That is the smallest number of points the leading All-America • vote-getter has received, in ’.the United Press voting since 1941. Geographically, the selections favored the south; Counting Mary--larid as a Dixie team, that , section came up with four players on the mythical eleven. The midwest was next with three, followed by the far west with two, 'the east’and southwest with one each.

At last night’s meeting, representatives from other counties professed a lack of knowledge of the district —Adams county officials, however, are beyond that stage. Under the Indiana conservancy act of J 947 the Adams county group will not agree; the bridges appear to have been burned and the die cast. It will take some big and fancy persuasion to change the administrative minds of Adams county regardless of how other groups feel.
