Elliott said he “felt good” about his selection, but quickly added “you realize as much as I do that I had had a lot of help this season.” , The 5-10, 170-pound junior was referring to what he said at the Booster club banquet Tuesday night upon being named co-most valuable with Steve Hazelwood, when he thanked his fellow teammates “for making this possible.” Elliott was the only player from the Northeastern Indiana conference and one of only two area players to receive mention on the AP underclassman team. End Pete Thom of Huntington was the other. One area player, guard Tom Kelleher of Fort Wayne Bishop Luers, was chosen on the allsenior team. . Five Halfbacks Six ends, five tackles, one guard, one center, four quarterbacks, five halfbacks and three fullbacks were chosen on the underclass squad. Elliott and Jim Spunkle, Tell City; Larry Williams, Richmond; Rick Hulchans, Kokomo and Randy Brown, Calumet, were the five halfbacks named. Two players from Elkhart’s mythical state champions were also on the squad. ' Both the all-senipr team and the underclass squad were chosen from nominations and advice received from 109 sports writers, sportscasters, coaches and officials by the AP. Elliott was outstanding this past season for Welly Yeoman and the Decatur Yellow Jackets, a team that posted a fine 6-3 record. „ He scored ten touchdowns in the nine season games, nine by rushing, and also ran for a pair of extra points. He rushed for 1,116 yards in 103 carries, for an outstanding average of 10.75 yards per carry, more than likely one of the best rushing averages ini the entire state. Elliott’s best one-game rushing performance was against Portland when he gained 217 yards in only 14 carries for a spectacular 15.5 per-carry average. He also gained over 200 yards on pass receiving during the year. The junior halfback, who is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Carl Elliott of 311 N. First St., produced several scintillating touchdowns runs during the season including an 83-yarder at Angola and others of 40, 45 and 25 yards, and a 62 yard pass-run play.

Score Dropping Os Telecast Os Blue-Gray Tilt MONTGOMERY, Ala. (UPD —The decision of a broadcasting network and former sponsors to drop the annual telecast cf the Blue-Gray football game because Negro players were barred was termed “tragic and irresponsible” by Gov. George Wallace Wednesday. - . ' Wallace said the persons “who pressured and intimidated” the National Broadcasting Company (NBC) and the game’s sponsors into dropping the' bowl game “hurt all races, especially the Negro race.” During the 26 year history of the bowl classic, proceeds of the game between North and South All-Stars have gone to a program of the local Lions Club set up to help blind and needy children. Lions Club President Harris Dawson said the funds are distributed “without regard to race, color or creed.” Notified Bowl Officials Bowl officials were notified last week by the network the game would not be televised this year because Negro players’ were-not invited to participate. The network had carried the game annually since 1954. Chrysler Corporation and the Gillette company sponsored the broadcast. Wallace said in a prepared ..statement, “those who pressured and intimidated the sponsors and the network have, as always do. hurt all races, especially the Negro race with this petty attempt to satisfy their own selfish motives. ‘.‘The receipts the game are used for * purposes, including ffrght conservation, and almost 60 pef cent of . ‘the people- who received eye care under this program last year were Negroes. Children, in the first grades of 35 Negro schools and 24 white schools had eye tests paid for by proceeds from the game,” Wallace said. Result Os Pressure Dawson said “it is a fair assumption that the ban resulted from pressure applied either to. NBC or game sponsors by Negro organizations.” Allyn McKean general manager of the Blue-Gray Association, said “we are tiding to find out just what is behind it—where the pressure that caused the cancellation came from.” He said negotiations were under way to get NBC’s permission for a regional telecast. Under a contract which expires in 1966, NBC may determine whether or not the game is televised or broadcast. McKeen added Don Faurot, athletic director at the University of 'Missouri and recruiter of the northern squad, assured him the ban was not hampering efforts to line up the North team.

Jim Gleeson Named Coach Os Yankees NEW YORK (UPD — The New York Yankees' rivals during the Yogi Berra regime are in for a host of surprises if the new manager’s choice of a coach to succeed "himself is an indicator of the future. Yogi caught just about everybody by surprise Wednesday when he selected Jim Gleeson, former outfielder for the Chicago Cubs and Cincinnati Reds, as the "Yankees’ new first-base coach. At the same time Berra revealed that he is retaining coaches Frank Crosetti, Ji m Began 'and Johnny Sain. Gleeson, 51, was only a journeyman outfielder with the Cubs and Reds between 1936 and 1942, but Berra remembered him from his Coast Guard days" and also. as a developer of young Yankee talent. “I played for Jim at the New London, Conn., submarine base in 1943,” said Yogi. "He also handled a lot of our young fellows before he retired from the Yankee organization. Among the present Yankees he managed are Joe Pepitone, Tom Tresh, Phil Linz, Al Downing and Jim Bouton.” Gleeson had a 41-game “look” with the Cleveland Indians in 1936 and batted only .259. He was .223 and .313 respectively with the Cubs in 1939 arid 1940 and .233 and .200 with the Reds in 1941 and 1942. Berra said that SIOO,OOO bonus bafty Jake Gibbs, former Mississippi football star, has been tagged as the No. 3 catcher behind Elstpn Howard and Jqjjnny Blanchard. He said he was interested in obtaining a harfd-hitting outfielder “hot not at the expense of two or three regulars.” 'S ’ " \ Auto, Pickup Truck Damaged In Occident A car and a pickup truck were damaged in an accident at 3:49 p.m. Wednesday. A car operated by Billy James Swoveland, 22, of 352 N. 11th St., struck a pickup driven by Merle William Riley,. 61, route 1, Decatur, in the rear, as both were eastbound on Monroe street. r Riley was forced to stop suddenly when a boy on a bicycle, who was not identified, who was crossing the street at Fourth St., rode in front of his trupk. Swoveland was not able to stop in time. Damages were estimated at $75 to the truck and S7O to the Swoveland auto.

Bear, Packer Fans I To See Game On TV I CHICAGO (UPI) Then | won’t be any turnstile count. 1 but a considerable number otj Chicago Bears and Green Bay | Packers fans will be taking in their Sunday struggle without a ticket for a football game. Instead they’ll be buying railroad tickets, 'tollroad tickets; motel and hotel receipts and bar bills. The almost 50,000 tickets for the game, between the two teams leading the National Football League’s Western Division, were sold out in July, and even the scalpers, with prices approaching the astronomical, aren’t overly supplied. Hence, fans of all types are making their own plans to take in the spectacle via television, involving the problem of getting there, finding a video screen, and getting back. Two railroads, the Santa Fe and the Milwaukee, are running special trains to TV territory, and there’s no way to count the people who’ll ride a tollway to find a TV set. The Santa Fe will haul its passengers to Galesburg, IJI., where they will be able to get the game from a Peoria TV station in a hotel. The Milwaukee will run to Lake Geneva, Wis., where they can watch video from Milwaukee or Madison, Wfe., in a hotel. The northwest tollway runs from Chicago to Rockford, 111., where numerous motels and hotels offer video facilities, and a Rockford station to put the game on the TV screen. The Indiana tollroad runs to South Bend, where one motel is offering 175 rooms, equipped with TV, ona first come-first serve basis to anyone who shows up. A South Bend TV station handles the game. Other outlets in the Midwest will make the game available in thousands of bars and motels, and friends in the area might expect an influx of guests.
