Six Notre Dame Players, Three Wabash, One Each From Indiana and Purdue Times All-State Selection Presents Powerful Possibilities— Second Choice Pushes First Hard for Honors-r-Many Formidable Linemen Available. i By HEZE CLARK. Now that the Indiana college football season Is really over It is time to pick the mythical eleven, commonly called the All-State team. No critic ever pleased every football fan in selecting All-State teams. No one man is capable of selecting the eleven best players without the help of coaches, football officials who have seen the men play, fans who take in all the big games and also the suggestions given by players who have been the opponents of these star athletes.
In selecting an All-State combination an effort is made to build the best team possible from the various college stars who have played on the Hoosier elevens this season. The defensive ability of the player is considered as much as the offensive play of these athletes. KOt KNE'S TEAM ON TOP OF HEAP. At the close of the 1921 grid season there was no doubt but that Notre Pame had the best team in the State. Notre Dame defeated Indiana, Purdue and De Pauw by top-heavy scores. Wabash did not meet Notre Dame, bu* Wabash defeated Purdue, Butler an t De Pauw, and by many is considereu the second best team in the State. However, Wabash and Indiana did not meet on the gridiron. The comparative score route in ranking teams is never satisfactory, but It can be said that Wabash defeated Purdue, 9 to 0. and Indiana beat Purdue, S to 0. The Little Giants’ game with the Boilermakers was an early season affair while Indiana's game was the closing battle of Purdue's si^iedule. Os all the men playing center Mehre of Notre Dame appeared, the best. He weighed ISS pounds. He was fast, ag-

gressive. a perfect passer, and met most of the best centers of the country and was never outplayed. Ogden of De Pauw, a great center, was not as much value to h's team this year as last, for In several games he was shifted to quarter back, and in that position ha was thrown off his stride. HITLER CENTER SHOW'S WELL. Duttenhaver of Butler plryed a strong game at center. Logan, playiu K his first 6eason of college football at Wabash, proved a hard fighter and ao aggressive player. Id selecting the guards aad tackles football followers can not o-crlook the fact that there were more first-class tackles than guards. H. Anderson of Notre Dame and Kessler of A'abash were the best men playing the guard positions regularly, but Birk, the Purdue star, was one of the most aggressive football players la the Middle West. Birk played tackle, guard and center and played ail equally well. Birk fits in best as a guard on an all-Siate team. Kessler, the aggressive Wabash lineman, is given the other guard position, although it is a close choice between Kessler and H. Anderson for first team honors. McCaw of Indiana is a big, powerful guard and Is named on the second all-State. Shaw of Nctre Dame was the best tackle in the State. Four other tackles showed well during the season. These are Mils tend and Aul of Wabash. Leonard of Indiana and of the Notre Dame. Milstead, the man chosen with Shaw for first All-State, is Pig, and on both offense and defense Is a power. Some critics favor Aul, declaring to is a better tackle than Milstead, but for all-round worn pre-

NEWS OF THE DAY IN
ponderenco of opinion seemed to favor Milstead, who tnough usually a “marked'’ man, managed to meet nearly e v ery emergency. Leonard was a tow, of strength for Indiana and so was G -vey for Notre Dame. Moffett of De Pauw also is worthy of honorable mention, for he performed consistently. NO QUESTION ABOUT ENDS. Never in the history of football in the Hoosier State has any * im possessed a pair of ends equal to Kiley and E. Anderson of Notre Dame. No ends in the country could beat them nt handling forward passes, and they could box a tackle a little better than any pair of ends seen in years. On defense their play was almost perfect. S' ill, had Hanny of Indiana no; suffered injuries in the Harvard game that kept him on the 6ide lines for port of the season, Hanny would have crowded either of the Notre Dame stars hard for first AllState. Carmen of Purdue, a hard fighting, aggressive end, is given the other | second All-State wing position. Middlesworth of Butler and Bookout of Earlham i deserve honorable mention. Henke and
Meese of Wabash were good ends and Stasand came strong at the finisn. With one of the best lines that ever formed an All-State team it is necessary to select a fast-traveling, aggressive bark field that can pass, can handle passes, can smash through a line or run an end. Grant of Notre Dame is believed the best quarter back in the State. Murphy of Purdue is believed the second best. Goldsherry of Wabash showed promise for anew man and has splendid possibilities. Murphy deserves much credit for the splendid game he played In some of the Boilermakers’ most important battles. Mohardt, Notre Dame, and Singleton, Wabash, are believed the best half backs. Singleton would take care of the punting department and Mohardt of the pass throwing. Kyle of Indiana isc in a class by himself as a full back, both on offense and defense Wynne of Notre Dame was the second best full back and Knee, the big Wabash bark field man, was used as both full back and half back. He is fast and a good ground gainer. Knee played better football this year than ever before. McClafflin, the Butler College star, is good enough were it not for such exceptional half backs as Mohardt and Singleton Honorable mention is given B. Kiser of Butler. Castner, Notre Dame, is given second All-State half back. His value Is increased by his ability to kick the ball. Woods, one of the best back field men that ever played at Butler, was out of many important games because of an injury. The Purdue back field was a fast, well balanced combination that played well together, but there were really no outstanding stars except Murphy playing those positions.

BOYS OF UNCLE SAM BIG NOISE TODAY ON GRID Army and Navy Meet in Colorful Battle—Middies 2 to 1 Favorites. 1921 SEASON CLOSES By JACK VEIOCK. NEW YORK, Nov. 2G.—Army and Navy rung down the curtain on a wonderful football season here today. Uncle Sam’s colorful service teams, rivals since 1890, and watched with a feeling of personal interest by the whole country, came to grips in the lee of Coogan’s Bluff at the Polo Grounds in their twenty-fourth annual game. Navy went into tho contest a 2 to 1 favorite in the betting. Red-hot enthusiasm among the supporters of the future admirals had much to do with making the odds what they were. Snappy, partly cloudy weather was the order when the Middies and Cadets tumbled out of their couches this morning. A crowd of some 50,000 fortunates prepared to crash into the Polo Grounds between noon and 2 o'clock when the game was scheduled to start. ' Something more than one hundred thousand people wanted to see tho Army mule tangle with the Navy goat and Just about one half of them had to be content with the thought of reading all about it iu the newspapers. PLENTY OF rOMP PRESENT AT GAME. The big service game was never more attractive than it was today, for with both elevens strong, proficient in the open style of play and sftdlcd with more color and potnp than ever, the contest took on a special lustre. Some fifteen hundred midshipmen from Annapolis and a like number of cadets from West Point were on hand to do the rooting for the rival teams. But while they furnished a big part of the spectacle, their natty uniforms, their military bands and drills on the field, there was something more brilliant than usual. * President Harding and Mrs. Harding. General Pershing and several other notables who were originally expected to attend today's game, were unable to be present, but the official family of President Harding was well represented. Vice President and Mrs. Calvin Coolidge, Secretary of War and Mrs. John W. Weeks, Secretary of Navy and Mrs. Denby, Senators and Representatives from all parts of the Union and officials of all rauks from the capital were here. Governor Miller of New York, Governor Edwards of New Jersey, Secretary of Commerce and Mrs Herbert Hoover, Secretary of Labor and Mrs. Davis, Assistant Secretary of Navy and Mrs. Roosevelt, Assistant Secretary of War J. M. Wainwrlght and his daughter were to occupy boxes. AMONG THE OFFICERS THERE. Brig. Gen. Douglas McArthur, superintendent of tho Military Academy at West Point; Brig. Gen. and Mrs. John S. O'Ryan: Maj. Gen. James G. Harbord, Maj. Gen. David C. Shanks, Maj. Gon.
George Crlchardu Admiral and Mrs. Robert Coontz, Admiral anil Mrs. E. W. liber- ’ le and Surgeon Gen. and Mrs. Edward : It. Stitt were also to bo among tho distinguished spectators. Scores of prominent official and society notables from Washington and many other Eas*ern cities; attaches of the delegation attending the conference for limitation ... armament at Washington and Rome of the delegates, in short, figureheads In all walks of life, were gathered here to witness the game. The Middies and Cadets havo met twenty-three times. One of these game* was a tie and the rest were split even between the teams, eleven each. Navy's team went into the game with its strongest talent intact. Tne line-up of tho Cadetl, however, was a bit uncertain, for It was by no means sure that French, star punter and fall back of the West Point eleven, would be able to remain long in the game. If he star*ed j af all. French was injured In the Yale game and has not been himself since that day. The probable line-tip: Army. Navy, i Storck L. E Parr | Mulligan L. T Wiedorn I Rre Ulster L.

LONDON, Nov. 26. —Jimmy Wilde is willing to meet Johnny Buff on a percentage basis at Holland Park hall, provided the American brings over with him Ills title of world's bantam champion. Wilde has still vivid recollections of Herman’s unexpected by Lynch just prior to tlio Italian’s first visit to this country. If it so happened that Buff was beaten just before leaving America to take part in a match with the world’s flyweight champion, the promotion here would naturally suffer, and. Incidentally, the percentage due to the boxers. Besides, Wilde) has a really fine chance of winning the world's bantam title from Buff, If the opinions of many Americans count for anything. The great little Welshman may be past his best, but he Is still good enough to beat boys who would be champions In ordinary times.

The largest crowd that ever attended an independent football game In this city is expected to be on hand at Eagles Park tomorrow afternoon to Toot for their favorites, when Referee Archie Erehart blows liis whistle for the kick oft of the contest that will decide the 1921 football championship of the city.

The Belmonts are expected to rely mostly on their full back, Matthias, to batter the heavy line of the Indianaapolis team, and when it comes to bitting the line, he is a demon, and is considered the hardest independent player in the city to stop, although the other two backs, Nicholson and Dunqan, are both fast men and can be depended upon to make several yards whenever they carry the ball.

Welch of the Belmonts, should not be overlooked, and if the back field is not able to make any gaus through the Indianapolis line it would not be a surprise to see them in the midst of some cleverly executed forward passes. It was a forward pass that sent the Ferndales down to defeat and the same may be relied upon to send the local champs down. Manager Canning of the Indianapolis champs will depend mostly on his line to stop the rushes of Matthias and wilt depend on Niehaus and Denman, both half backs, who have been the best ground gainers on the Purple eleven this season, to get away with some long runs. Yott, quarter back and captain, is also fast and good at carrying the ball, and can be depended upon to make several gains, and is also clever at throwing forward passes, very few of which go astray. A curtain raiser will precede the Belmont Indianapolis game and will be called at 1 o'clock, the big game following. Special car service has been provided and arrangements made to take care of a large crowd. To reach Eagles Park, formerly Northwestern, take Indiana Avenue err to end of line and walk one block noith. or take Northwestern car to Seventeenth street and walk west. The officials for the game will bo Erehart, Indiana, referee; Patton, Wabash, umpire; Gray, Brownsburg, head linesman; Smith. Omaha, field Judge. N. D.

Frankfort Five Is Winner Over Tech by Score of 33 to 14 The basket-ball life of Technical High School seems to be just one defeat after another. The Green and White lost its fourth straight game last night to the fast Frankfort quintette by the score of 33 o 14. The way the game started it seemed as if neither team would ever score, for about ten minutes went by without any player finding the basket. After they got started Frankfort had the best luck and pulled away from Tech in the first half by a score of 11 to 3. Tech pepped up at the start of the second half and caged a couple of goals to bring them up almost even with Frankfort, but the rally proved a last and despairing effort, as many field goals near the end of the contest by Spradling and McCarty swept the local lads off their feet and allowed the winners to pile up thirty-three points. McCarty was the best performer for Frankfort and led the scoring with six field goals. Sadler qt Frankfort also played a good game for the winners. Scott was the outstanding player for Tech. In addition to scoring ten of his team’s points Scott played a flashy floor game. GEORGES IS WILLING.
