Eastern Writer Selects Gipp and E. Anderson International News Service Sports Editor Names Two Notre Dame Stars on All-American Mythical Eleven—Coughlin on Second Team and Kyle of Indiana Is Given Honorable Mention.

By JACK VEIOCK. International Sw Sports Editor. NEW YORK, Dec. 7.—Football's greatest year: Nineteen-twenty will go down in gridiron annals as such and without exaggeration. No season in the history of the game has been so colorful. Few seasons that have gone before have developed such a brilliant crop of back field stars, and ne'fer before have the crowd* at football classics been as large or public interest In the game as keen as it has been tbla fail Football came back In fairly good shape Just after the war, but the season of 191st found ita ranks filled with new coaches and players. The period given to the coaches to get talent lined np and mold smoot-working elevens was all too short, and as a result the quality of the game suffered. This year it was different. Coaches and players stood on solid ground once again and the grand old game came back with greater vigor than ever before. The new style of play—the open game—was seen at Its best, and the players who carry the ball had a cbance to shine more brightly than ever. DIFFERENCE IN CRISTICS’ OPINION'S. Picking all-American teams is a ticklish task and the opiuions of those who do the picking often vary, yet the selection of one critic or another can be honestly offered for what It is worth In the way of building up a combination of atars. The elevens herewith presented by the writer have been chosen after careful consideration. Either of these two teams would undoubtedly be a winner. Each would combine experience with

superb driving i>offcr, strong defensive ability, a knowledge of the new style of play ana aa abundance of football tense. Stars among the wingmen and lines- • men were scarce this year, when compared with the abundant crop of back field men who tbrilied crowds ail over the country with their wonderful and spectacular playing. But there were quite a few good ends, and plenty of seasoned and highly capable linesmen. Legendre of Princeton and K. Anderson of Notre Dame are given the wing post tions <.n tCo writer s first eleven, with Carney. Illinois, and Beldicg, lowa, on the second team. ,Xe gf-ndrc and E. Anderson are speedy, rangy and rugged. Itotn are great defensive players; both can get down under punts and lie there waiting to tackle the man who catches the ball. Both can handle the forward pass and have the speed to go out and giab many a pass that may not be thrown accurately. At breaking up or sifting through interference these two wingmen are adepts, and backs who tried to circle their ends this season found that gaining ground around them was well nigh impossible. Anderson in particular, Is a star In handling passes. The ends named for the second elevens are not far removed from those two in all-around ability. The tackles. Keck of Princeton and Gulick of Syracuse, are towers of strength in the line. Keck, In addition to being an all-round linesman, in fast on his feet for a big feilow and a hard and sure tackier. He is also an expert place kicker and did most of Princeton's kicking of goals from touchdown. COIOHI.IN ONE OF BEST TACKLES. Gulick is a novice tackle of the kind who forces the opposition to give hint a wide berth rather than send Plays against his position. Like Keck, he Is also fast on his feet and a truly wonderful player both on offense and defense. It was Gulick who scooped np a fumbled ball in the Pitt-Syracuse game and ran half the length of the field for a touchdown that saved Syracuse from defeat and wound up the contest in a T-to-7 tie. Other great tackles are Sedgwick of Harvard; Coughlin, the great Notre IJame linesman; Dickens, Yale's plucky and versatile tackle and Clyde King of the Navy, who Is a fine kicker as well as a great tackle in every respect. With these ends and tackles place Griffiths, of Penn State, and Capt. Tim Callahan of Yale at the guards, and Inject Alexander of Syracuse Into the line at center and what a line you would have. It would be a veritable stone wail —-a forward defense that no set of backs Hi the country could be expected to puncture for consistent gains. Callahan, though he played with a losing team, stands out above any guard lu the country. He is. you might say, In a class by himself because of his fighting spirit and versatility. He knows his Hoards FOR THREE-CCBHION TITLE. CHICAGO, Dec. 7. —The world's threecusbion billiard championship series was to open here today with the world's four leading cue artists battling for the prize now held bv Champion Bob Cannefax, who will defend his title. Pitted against the champion are Angie "Kleckhefer of Chicago, Johnny Layton of St. Lauoa and Clarence Jackson of Kansas City. The series opened this afternoon with a match between Layton and Jackson. Kleckhefer clashes with Cannefax tonight. All games will be of seventy-five points. Kleckhefer won his way Into the series by defeating Pierre Maupome of Milwaukee, last night, after Maupome had beaten Kleckhefer In an afternoon match and won his way to a tie with the Chicagoan. In the evening match Kleckhefer eliminated the Milwaukeean by the close scone of f>o to 48 In fifty-three innings. In the preliminaries Layton flnlahed first, Jack•od second and Kleckhefer third. HOPPE OFF IN LEAD. NEW YORK, Dec. 7.—Willie Hoppe. 18.2 balkline billiard champion. Is In the lesd today In the second annual championship tourney at the Hotel Aator. Hoppe has scored one victory and has no defeats against him. Welker Cochran lost to, 370 to 400, after defeating Jake Schaefer, 400 to 338. Play waa resumed today.

position inside out and he has the , strength, speed and grit to play it su- : perbly. Griffith, likewise, is a guard j of great value, as good a guard as any I coach could ask for. Roth men are capable of breaking through the enemy defense to block kicks and In offensive and defensive play they are truly a pair of aces. ALEXANDER IS GREAT rLAYER. ! Alexander, chosen as a guard last season ou many all-American teams, played at center this year for Syracuse and disj played ability that surprised hi* closest ! admirer*. He Is a roving center, an acI curate passer of the ball and can play •in the line as well. He drives forward with great power and makes himself felt , on defense because he can help break up plays on either side of the line, or break through to block kicks and nip other plays In the bud. There are other fine guards and cen--1 ters to be considered. Taylor of Ohio State; McGuire of Chicago. Mohr of Illinois and Woods of Harvard are wonderfully capable guards. Cunningham. Dartmouth, center, has not made a wild pass to his backs lu several seasons, has not had time taken out for him and has played a wonderfully consistent offensive and’ defensive game. Captain Day, Nebraska’s stocky pivotal man. Is another great center and he makes up in ability what he lacks In height, for he is one of the shortest ceuters on the western circuit. Out of a myriad of great quarter hacks who have flashed across the football horizon this season Don Lourie of Princeton Is chosen for tlie first eleven. Here is a player who has everything a quarter hack should have rare Judgment in directing the play of his team, wonderful speed, accuracy in handling the forward pass and natural ability to carry

the ball. lie is one of the greatest opi-n----fleld runnprs in the country and his allaround wofk throughout the season "tamps him as a quarter of that calibre who wouid be tho enevy of any coach. Lourie had many rivals for the honor Boynton of Williams, great individual point scorer, and McMillan of Centie, last year's all-American quarter back, were close to him in all around effMen y.* Buell, Harvard* crack quarter; Fttzger aid, also of Harvard: Murrey. Louiie'* understudy : Bob Fletcher of Illinois, and Workman of Ohio State, were among the players who pressed the I’rlneetou star closely. George Gipp, Notre Dame, and Charley Wav, I’enn State, are awarded the haif back position*. The wonderful of these two speedv, smashing backs’.-m lie put poorly described. Both are n era of twin six power. Each is capable of tearing off long runs or ripping up the line, ns tlw occasion demand* In tearing through a broken tbld or pick ing a hole in an opposing line those , sure footed half back* displaced uncanny ability and at the passing game they were * constant menace to the enemy. ”T N TANARUS" In moleskin comes closer to desc lbing the work of this pair than anything we can think of. GIPP HEADS THEM ALL. Gipp, who Is also a great kicker, stood out lu bold relief In account] of nearly every game played by the unbeaten Notre Dame eleven this year. In the Indianapolis game, late In the season, he received an injury to hi* left shoulder that kept him ou th* sidelines, but hdisplayed enough In the games in which he appeared to stump him a* an n 11AineTlran star. The same may be said of Charley Way, who, with the exeeption of the scoreless tie game plaved between Pitt and Penn State on Thanksgiving day. was good for a touchdown nearly any time Penn State needed a score. The 1920 crop of star half hacks was naturally much larger than the quarter back crop. Gipp mid Wav had many keen competitors for the honor of being placed on the mythical first eleven. Just a few of these are Stlnchcomb. Ohio State: Davies, Pittsburgh; Flowers Georgia Tech.; Owen and Churchill, Harvard; Walquiat. Illinois. Whitneli, Centre; Beck, West Virginia, and Hartley. Nebraska. HORWELX BEST v OF FULL BACKS. The full hack Job la given to Capt. Arnold Horween of Harvard. Here is one of the most consistent full backs of many a season. The Crlmkod leader was a power In Harvard's back flehl in every big game throughout the Hup. He ripped up optioning line* for insistent gains and on defense was a tower of strength in Harvard's secondary line. On offense, when he did not ; carry tbe ball, he helped the Crimson linesmen tear gaping holes In the opposing line, often taking out two men in hi* diagonal plunges, directed against tackle. lie Is exceptionally fast for a big man and keeps his feet well. Stopping Horween was a man’s size Job for any line. In addition, the Crimson captain is a kicker of great ability, capable of booting the ball with power and accuracy from almost any position within the forty-yard line Crangle of Illinois and French of the Army, rank close to Horween. Crangle is a man of great strength and endurance, a Dill back who is good for from two to four yards after lie hits the secondary line of defense. French, a great line plunger a speed merchant in the open and u kicker of marked ability, played with consistent brilliancy through the season. Scheerer of Princeton, Wynn of Notre Dame, Roberts of Centre, Kyle of Indiana and Don Whiting, star or the Marietta College eleven, were among the ranking full backs of the year.

Cobb Still Undecided Over Managing Tigers NEW ORLEANS, Dee. 7.—Ty Cobb passed through New Orleans yesterday on his way from the Pacific coast to his home In Augusta? Ga. Asked if he expected to manage the I>e- ► troit Tigers next season, Ty was noncommittal. He did not deny that President Navin had offered him the place. •‘.Sometimes I think that it would be better for me to remain In the ranks until I have played out my league string and then try managing," Ty said. ‘‘Other times I am tempted to take hold now. I haven’t really reached any decision. ‘‘Our club needs building up and the Job will be a hard one. The fan* might expect more than any manager could deliver in hi* first couple of years, and I am afraid it might worry me if I couldn’t hand them a pennant right off the reel."

SPORT GOSSIP AND COMMENT

International victories scored in the yacht races and the Olympic games by America probably will have another mate when the "two Bills" of tennis get through in Australia the last of this month. William Tilden, British and American champion, ami William M. Johnston, former national titieholder, are going uffer the Davis cup in a series of sing.es and doubles matchts on Dec. 28. 29 j nd 31. Even in Australia, the experts anticipate an American victory and a return to this country of the Davis cup. Both Tilden sod Johnston, e.-pecially Tilden, j are at the top of their game now and iti is doubtful if there are aujr two players in the world who can beat them. If other Western teams have the luck or the quality of Notre Dame the East will bo lit a bad war on the prospective big football invasion next fall. Since 1909 Notre Daate lias played fifteen games in the East, wlnn.ng eleven, losing three and tying one. Since 1916. the Irish 1 Boosters have nt lost a game in the I East. Yale and West Point are the only I teams that beat them previous to 1916, ] while Vest Point. Pittsburgh. I’eun State.

*~jr*^* : 7Yr TTH I KqjpugSl WSCMMOOr*.WIGGINS LOSES IN GIBBONS GO TOLEDO, Dec. 7.—A cut over the right eye received In the third round j handicapped Chuck Wiggins in his bout | with Tommy Gibbons here last night ; and t be Indianapolis light heavyweight was outpointed by the St. Paul star. Due to weight advantage and more experience, Gibbons was the favorite when ti * boxer* entered the ring ands the ' scrap progressed he proved his *ti- • periorlty. Wiggins opened with his usual speed and he scored effectively. I but in the second round Gibson got iil ' left Jab working and lie also punished the iloonier about tile" mldsectiou when In the clinches. in the third frnme Gibbon* opened ; Chuck* right eye and the streaming blood bothered the Indianapolis fighter in his defensive work. Wiggins showed better form in th*- fourth and traded punch for punch and continued to box well in the liftb. In the sixth, however, ; Gibbous took the lend and won this round bv ,i safe margin, and he re- ! pea ted in the seventh. Chuck gave 1 ground in the eighth and lost the round, j and the ninth was rather tame. In (he tenth Gibbon* spurted again. < but in the eleventh Wiggins improved and his speed forced Gibbons to battle hard to get an even break during toe three minutes. The St, Puul boxer tried for a fast finish in the twelfth and fought hard every second, but the llouster weathered the storm, although outpointed. Gibbons' advantage in weight told in the clinches and enabled him to force Wiggins to give ground on several oe . cusions. The St. Paul man evidently , tried Ills he.-t to score a knockout, but ; Chuck was to smart for him and r.p- . parently u.is not dazed at any time, it j was u fast bout despite the blood ; spilled by Wlggius and tbe large crowd was satisfied. It was the opinion of rlngslders following the bout that Gibbons Is easily tlie class of the light heavyweight division. When it came time to pay off the fighters an attachment for $750 was served against Wiggins by George Pulford, a Toledo sport writer, who claimed that amount for "services rendered as malinger under an old contract." The Toledo boxing commission honored the attachment and withheld the money. The matter was argued at a meeting of the commission today. OTHER MONDAY BOLTS. AT MILWAUKEE —Jack Britton, welterweight champion, and "Pinkie" Mitchell of Milwaukee fought a tenround draw. AT LA SALLE, ILL.—Eddie McGoorty and George Chip went ten round* to a draw. AT DETROIT —Y'oung Montreal shaded Joe Burmaij in ten rounds. AT BOSTON—Andy Chaney stopped William Green In six rounds. AT NEW YORK—Joe Howard de- • feateil Barry Norton In four round*. , Frank Maxwell defeated Phil Dclmont in twelve rounds. i Franklin and Anderson Prep Basket-ball Teams Renew Old Fight Tonight FRANKLIN, ind., Dec. 7.—Another of those famous Anderson-Franklin High School basket-ball buttles will be Btaged on the floor of the local school tonight. The contest will be the first big prep game of the season for Indiana and every fan in the State Is showing keen Interest over the result. Requests for reservation* hnve been pouring in from Franklin and Anderson fans, as well as those from fans in every nearby town, and it is safe to say that the game will be witnessed by approximately 2,900 people. The rivalry between these two teams dates back almost to the organization of the first basket-ball Rquads to represent the respective Institutions, and it is growing keener and keener every year, standing ut a fever heat at the present time. Franklin handed Anderson the only three defeats that team suffered last season. This year they are starting out again with clean records and their contest tonight will spell defeat for either of them only after a bitter struggle. Tile Anderson team of this season is practically the same in strength as the one of last season, three of the 1919 men being back in school, anil the two newcomers working well lu the combination. Franklin lieonly two of last year's men in harness this season, but Coach Wagner has a quintette that can put up a good fight in anybody’s game. OFFER MADE URBAN. BOSTON, Dec. 7.—Capt. Luke Urban of the Boston College eleven has been asked to coach Creighton University football at Omaha, Neb., next fall, and probably will accept. He also la a crack 1 basket and baseball player.

Butler and Dental Machines to Clash on Irvington Court Rival Yearns Boast of Strong Line-ups for Annual Scrap Tonight. When \ Vat Page’s Butler net crew stacks into the Dental College quintet tonight on the Butler floor, spectators will probably watcli one of the most bitterly-fought contests ever staged in this city. Tha rivalry between the two schools, always Rt a high stage, Is after anew high water mark and the only opportunity that the crowd tonight will have to get a good, deep breath from _Ahe first to the final whistle will be between halves. These two Institutions come together annually on the basket-ball court, amt this year each school boasts of the strongest quintet in recent years, and ou top of this they look evenly matched. Page's outfit will have one advantage In that the game will be second of tbe season for the Blue and White, while for the Dentals It will be first. The line up that the Blue and White mentor will use, with one or two exceptions, will be the same that started against Armour Tech. The Dental lineup can not even be guessed, but Coach Clark probably will use a number of men throughout the contest ill order to get a llnp on his material. Arrangements are being made by Manager Paul to accommodate one of the biggest crowds of the season, for It will be one of the few contorts of the year where rooters from both strongholds will be out lu force.

Syracuse and Washlngton-Jefferson have been their victims since that year. Ohio State, which is seeking' n good eastern team to open the new million dollar stadium in 1922, ran open relations either with Pennsylvania or the Naval Academy, it is understood. And Notre Dame can go to the coast for a game with southern California. Bill Brennan says he tnrned hi* ankle and lost his former battle with Jack Dempsey. He's going into the bout Deo. 14. fortified with brace* around ills peda! extremities. Brencnn is to get $35,000 for swapping punches with th* champion, which will bo enough to tide hint over the lean day* if he hat to spend three weeks In the hospital after this fracas. Organization of * national boxing association to govern the ring sport, like the ruling bodies of the track, links, etc , will be attempted In New York soon lr the International Sporting Club Tbe Governors of State*, where boxing i* legal, arc being asked by the club to send representatives to the conference. The meeting probably will be held this month.

NEW DECISION BY COURT IS HELP TO GAME With Reserve Clause Sustained Work on New Agreement Is Simplified. TO AID IN DISCIPLINE NEW YORK, Dec. 7.—-Baseball took a new lease on life today. The decision of the Court of Appeals of the District of Columbia, reversing a verdict won by tbe Baltimore Fed crals and sustaining the reserve clause, Is the biggest boost the game haa had In years. Asa result of the verdi.t the work of the Joint major and minor league committee, which meets here Saturday to revamp the government of the game and adopt anew national agreement, has been greatly simplified. "The verdict Is going to prove a great boom for the game," said John Heydler, president of the National League, today, "it Is also going to leave the joint committee untrammeled in drawing up our new national agreement. The upholding of the legality of the reserve clause and the decision that baseball Is not interstate commerce, but genuine sport could not have come at a more opportune time. "Everybody knows that without tha reserve clause we could not operate. The court has appreciated that fact, too, and the fact that we must have the clausa to inforce discipline. This at least U what it comes down to in the last analysis." *The decision means that hereafter baseball will have no fears of going Into court to defend itself or protect its rights. Formerly the reserve clause did not look overly strong* in court. It was once attacked on the ground that it was peonage. 1921 Earlham Captain RICHMOND, Ind., Dec. 7.—Robert Hinshaw of Spiceland has been elected captain of the 1921 Earlham football team.
