Decatur's Yellow Jackets outi scrambled the Geneva Cardinals Tuesday night at the Decatur gym, with the Jackets scoring their first victory, 53-51, as they handed the Cardinals their first defeat after three triumphs.

The Jackets regained possession after a Geneva shot, and Grabill canned the winning fielder from the corner with 20 seconds to go.

Midwest Stars Dominate All American Team By LEO H. PETERSEN UPI Sports Editor NEW YORK* (UPI) — The Midwest dominates the 1959 United Press International All-America football team announced today although Billy Cannon ran away with individual honors. Louisiana State’s star halfback received a total of 3,048 points in the nation-wide balloting by 359 sports writers and broadcasters, the largest number ever to vote for a UPI All-America team. Cannon’s showing was the second stongest in the history of the voting, being exceeded only by the 3,369 points which Leon Hart, Notre Dame end, received in 1949. Selected with Cannon as the finest coUegiate players in the land were: Ends — Monty Stickles, Notre Dame and Bill Carpenter, Army. Tackles — Dan Lanphear, Wisconsin and Don Floyd, Texas Christian. Guards — Roger Davis, Syracuse and Bill Burrell, Illinois. Center — Max Baughan, Georgia Tech. Quarterback — Richie Lucas, Penn State. Halfbacks — Cannon and Ron Burton, Northwestern. Fullback — Charles Flowers. Mississippi. Midwest Gets Four Berths Stickles, Lanphear, Burrell and Burton gave the Midwest four berths on the mythical eleven. There were three players each from the South and East and one from the Southwest. Baughan and Flowers, in addition to Cannon are from the South while Davis, Carpenter and Lucas are from the East and Floyd from the Southwest. Geographically, that left the Far West, Rocky Mountain and Midlands areas without representation oq the dream teari. Cwos ta-the from UPl’s 1958 team. He was one of two juniors on that team, the other being Bob White of Ohio State White was injured most of the past season and received only 201 points, which put him well down on the honorable mention list. All of the 1959 All-Americans are seniors and all except Carpenter, the lonely end who must stay in military service, are expected to be the most sought after players by the professional football leagues. Fast And Heavy Line The linemen are all fast and heavy. The line averages 219 pounds. Davis is the heaviest —228 pounds: Burrell and Carpenter the lightest at 210. The backfield averages 194 pounds, with Cannon the bulkiest at 208. There was only one close contest for a first team berth. That was for thd center spot where Baughan beat out Jackie Burkett of Auburn by 37 points. Lanphear led the linemen in the balloting with 2,110 points. 39 more than Davis received. Syracuse, the nation’s No. 1 team in the ratings by the United Press International Board of Coaches, placed a man on each of the first three teams. Ernie Davis won a backfield berth on the second team and Gerhard Schwedes was voted into the third team backfield. The Midwest also dominates the second team with four places. The Far West won three berths, the South two and the East and Southwest one each. Five Front East On the first three teams, the Midwest was voted a total of 10 places with the South next in line wih nine. There are five from the East, four from the Far West

Yankees Seek To Trade For Warren Spahn ST. PETERSBURG, Fla- (UPI) —Southpaw Warren Spahn began his big league career under Casey Stengel and that’s the man he may finish it under if current talks between the Braves and Yankees culminate in a long-an-ticipated trade. Dispensing with the usual smoke screen that accompanies most trade parleys, the Yankees got right to the heart of the matter by asking the Braves what their chances were of landing the 38-year-old Spahn. The Braves naturally asked whowill-you-give? Gil McDougald and Hank Bauer, was the reply of Yankee General Manager George Weiss. Braves Like McDougald Milwaukee is receptive to McDougald, but isn’t especially interested in Bauer. So both sides retreated temporarily until they can get together again at the major league meetings in Miami Beach next week Cal Griffith of the Washington Senators revealed he was “very close” to making a deal with Los Angeles for Roy Sievers and there was “a good chance” it would be completed today. Griffith and Dodger General Manager Buzzie Bavasi huddled for more than three hours Tuesday night.. The possibility of the Yankees coming up with Spahn almost completely overshadowed Tuesday’s straight-player swap in which veteran outfielder Bobby Thomson moved to the Red Sox from the Cubs for pitcher Al Schroll. To Alternate Thomson Boston Manager Billy Jurges said he planned to alternate the 36-year-old Thomson in left field with Ted Williams — if Ted decides to return. Otherwise, Thomson, who hit .259 last year, might win the job by defeault. Detroit has joined Cleveland in the bidding for Philadelphia shortstop Chico Fernandez and the Orioles are listening to several offers for catcher Gus Triandos. The Orioles completed their second deal of the meetings by sending outfielder Bob Nieman to the Cardinals for catcher-outfielder Gene Green. The Cards also threw in farm-hand Charles (Chuck) Staniland. He will go to Baltimore’s Miami farm club from Rochester. Pro Basketball St. Louis 106, Syracuse 101. Minneapolis 103, New York 100.

The Fairway team relies more on a balanced scoring attack with any member able to hit for high double figures.

Dick Carson and sophomore forward Jim McDonald, taking over for departed AllAmerican Johnny Cox, added 14 each.

Coifs Favored To Win Over Forty-Niners By EARL WRIGHT United Press International The Baltimdre Colts are 5% point favorites to whip the FortyNiners at San Francisco Saturday and clinch at least a tie for the National Football League’s Western Division title. Baltimore and* San Francisco are tied for the lead. Like the other 10 clubs, each has two more regular season games. Thus the winner of Saturday’s nationallytelevised game will move a game ahead with one to go and will be certain of at least a tie for sectional honors. The Cleveland Browns - Giants game at New York heads Sunday's five-game program. The Giants lead the Browns and Philadelphia Eagles by two games and can clinch their second straight Eastern title with a victory or a tie New York is a fourpoint choice to win. The Eagles are 2% point favorites to down the Redskins at Washington but Philadelphia’s slender hopes will depend on whether Cleveland can defeat New York. The Chicago Bears, a game behind Baltimore and San Francisco, still are “alive” in the Western . race. They are seven-point choices to defeat the visiting Pittsburgh Steelers, the team that has whipped the Giants, Browns and Eagles in .the last three weeks. In Sunday’s other games, the Rams are favored over the Green Bay Packers by 5% points at Los Angeles and the Lions are favored over the Chicago Cardinals by four at Detroit
