All-America Football Board Names Four Hoosiers on 1929 Team

Talking It Over BY JOE WILLIAMS

NEW YORK, Der. 7 ROGERS HORNSBY, the Texas hombre, who won the National League's most valuable player award In 1925, is favored to take It again this year and gain the distinction of being the first major leaguer to repeat for the annual prize. The official dope, which Is to be broadcast Sunday, is being kept a deep secret. For all I know, the old league may decide to give the bag og gold to Frank O'Doul, or ever Babe Herman. But take it from an old established Hornsby booster, Rog ought to get the award hands down, with nobody even close U M * TMd I htar tome allfht to the world irrlet? Did I heir the old mi* berry on Hog's performances *rlnst the Athletics? Well, folks, world series staff doesn't eoanty In this thine, and even If it did, my Tote still would go to Hornsby. * * * IF Rog does get the sack of mazuma, he will stand out like a gin nose at a W. C. T. U. meeting. We mustn't forget that with the 1929 award, the whole scheme will die. The American League dropped the Idea last winter, and the National League voted the thing off the books at the summer session in Cincinnati.

Os course, there Is s strong prejudice against giring the prlrc to any player twice, hut In this ease It looks as If the eommlttee found Itself blocked. O’Doul? Dnrleigh Grimes? Bill Terry? What did any of these do to compare with the trick turned In by Hornsby, who lifted and also ran right Into the world aeries? m m m If the National League were to ask me to make the score sheet for the "one grand" to be devoted to the personal welfare of the winner, I would hand in this standing: I— Rogers Hornsby, Chicago Cubs. t —Red Lucas, Cincinnati. a—Burleigh Grimes. Pittsburgh Pirates. 4—Bill Terry, New York Giants. B—Frank O’Doul, Philadelphia Phillies. ll Babe Herman, Brooklyn Dodgers. 7 Lloyd Waner, Pittsburg Pirates. 8— Chirk Hafey, St. Louis Cardinals. 9 Rabbit Maranrlllr, Boston Braves. 10—Hack Wilson. Chicago Cubs. a a tt THIS man Lucas won seventeen games for the Reds last season and he also did some neat pinch hitting. Red is about the best allround player in the game. You will recollect that he played second base for the Braves for a while before being sent back to Seattle, which sold him to the Red Stockings. Any pitcher who can win seventeen games for an outfit like the one Jack Hendricks managed last season Is entitled to a Croix De Guerre wit.: palms. mum Grime* kept the Pirate* out of the poor houae. He pitched them out of Ignominy. Terry kept the Giant* In the hunt, O'Doul grabbed the league batting title after being thrown to the Phillies by Jawn McGraw, who figured that Frank was on his way hack to San Francisco. A* for the rest, we all know what they did both aa Individuals and as team men. But nobody in that, collection skated through 154 games as did Rogers Hornsby.

(Editor’s Not*—The All-America Board of Football was organized six years ago for the purpose of meeting annually and selecting the all-America football team. Three noted football authorities, Glenn S. (Pop) Warner, Knute Rockne and Tad Jones were the original members of this committee and still compose Its membership. W. A. Alexander, head coach of Georgia Tech, later was added to represent the south. An advisory committee consist of Captain L. McC. Jones of West Point, chairman; Charles F. Bom, A. A. ’25; William Webster, A. A. ’27; Harry Stuhldreher, A. A. ’24; Paul Scull A. A. ’2B; Warren W. Brown, Chicago Herald Examiner; Gordon Mac Kay, Philadelphia Record; James Robbins, New York World; George Striekler, Atlanta Georgian.) BY THE ALL-AMERICA BOARD OF FOOTBALL (Reg. U. S. P atent Office) NOTWITHSTANDING better facilities and a greater abundance of first hand evidence than at any meeting in the past five years, this board was able to reach an all-America agreement from the wealth of 1929 material, only after prolonged consideration and in certain instances following discussion that bordered on deadlock. The counsel and assistance rendered by Captain Jones of West Point, and his advisory committee, was Invaluable and the addition of a southern member to the all-America’s board proved wise and necessary. All-America certificates orginated by this board five years ago will be distributed at an early date. Lapel shields also will be awarded to certificate winners. The lapel award is a gold football, mounted on a red, white and blue shield.

As the matter of actual selection of the all-American eleven, was approached it was surprising with what Teadiness and unanimity the first seven names were proposed and adopted. But thereafter complications and obstacles developed. And with the reaching of a final and complete decision—which was only attained after serious debate regarding the backfield positions—it was noticeable that seven of the eleven players were selected from four undefeated teams of the year— Notre Dame, Pittsburgh, Purdue and St. Mary's of California. All Given Chance At first glance this gives the impression that an outstanding player on an undefeated team is virtually assured of all-America selection and as a sequel to such a formula, a player on an undefeated team has a better chance of making allAmerica than a superior player on a second division team. Such reasoning is entirely contrary to the methods employed by this board as is best exemplified by the selection of Cagle, chiefly on the strength of his performance against Notre Dame, Illinois and Harvard—although Army failed to win any one of these games. On the other hand it is natural to presume that any football team than can go through a schedule of eight or nine major contests without a tie or defeat must be blessed with one, if not several players of extraordinary caliber. Key-Man Attracts There have been championship teams of the non-star variety, but ordinarily every title winning aggregation has its key-man who challenges the attention and deserves the compliments of the critics as well as the public at large. The easiest man to place on the all-America team for 1929 was Carideo, quarterback field executive for Notre Dame. Opinion favoring Cannon, his teammate, was equally unanimous. The most perplexing problem of the day was finding a place for Welch, Cagle, Banker, Uansa, Parkinson, and Nagurski—with only three positions available. The hardest single decision of the entire conference was eliminating the mighty Nagurski of Minnesota, who can play and has played great football this year both in the line and in the backfield —a mark of versatility which stamps a man as most valuable to his team, but at the same time may work against his claims for all-American placement over men who have displayed outstanding powers in one position throughout the entire season. Several linesmen were named and the hardest one to eliminate was Sington, Alabama's great tackle. Moynihan Handicapped Tichnor, Moynihan, Siano, Cox, and Hughes stand at the head of a large class of excellent pivot men. Tichnor, Harvard's captain-elect,ap-pears to have more supporters for first call than any of his competitors. He weighs 195 pounds, is fast and inspirational to his teammates. When Tichnor was on the side-

lines, the Harvard front wall functioned with difficulty but when in the actual fray Tiehnor was invariably where the enemy attack was strongest. Os necessity, to win this honor he is a reliable passer under any and all conditions. On defense he is constantly in and out of the line and his work either as defensive guard or defensive center hardly has a flaw. Moynihan like Marsters of Dartmouth, was the victim of football fate in his final year. Followers of Notre Dame have said the South Bend line is twenty per cent weaker in the absence of its big first-string center and his presence in the Army game may or may not have strengthened Moynihan’s all-Amer-ica claims. A fractured ankle cheated Moynihan of his last chance just as serious Injury robbed Marsters, Dartmouth’s great half baok, of an opportunity to prove his all-America rating in three of his team’s major games.

All-Star Show for Mat Fans Wrestling fans should be pleased with Promoter McLemore’s efforts in arranging what he calls an allstar mat card for Monday night at Cadle tabernacle, for the program seems fortified with class, two present university wrestling coaches, one former university mat mentor and three well-known professionals having been enrolled. Coach Leslie Beers of Purdue university will tackle George Baltzer and Coach Thom of Indiana university will meet Merle Dolby, former coach at Ohio State university. In the main go Joe Parelli, Italian middleweight, will wrestle Bobby Roscoe. This match will be for best two in three falls.

Oh, My, Roped Arena Flusters Gene GREENWICH, Conn., Dec. 7.—James Joseph Tunney, known as Gene when he was world’s champion heavyweight, entered the ring Friday night for the first time since he vacated the title a year and a half ago. And according to his own words he found it rather uncomfortable to be back in the roped square. “I'm terribly embarrssed to get into a ring,” he said. “It’s such an unfamiliar atmosphere. I don’t know the way around. I guess the best thing for me to do is to become an ordinary spectator. Then I won’t get hurt, physically or mentally.” The occasion was a boxing benefit at the Y. M. C.

Tracy Cox

THE haymaker Tracy Cox failed to land on Billy Shaw a few weeks ago is cocked and primed for Monday night at Tomlinson hall when the Brightwood mauler meets Kid Lencho of Mexico, who has fought many times in these parts. In fact, it was Lencho who defeated Happy Atherton at Ft. Harrison a few summers ago. Since then he has mingled with the featherweights and with boys of prominence. However, Cox is burning up to put over a knockout and a slugfest is promised. The usual strong supporting card is offered with Royal Cox and other willing mixers scheduled to perform. There will be six bouts in all, totaling thirty-six rounds, first at 8:30.

ST. PATS ARE VICTORS South Siders Show Balanced Attack to Beat Olympics. St. Pat’s basket team broke into the win column Thursday night by defeating Riverside Olympics, 43 to 28, at South Side Turner hall. Nuttall and Johnson starred for the losers. St. Pats showed an evenly-bal-anced team. Mulvaney, St. Pats’ pivot, was the player that the Olympics failed to stop, and his jumping at center and goal shooting gave the south side crew the edge. Brannon and Reed played strong defensive games for St. Pats, while Stehlin and L. Cruse had their basket eye working. CHIEF ELKHART VICTOR Bv United Press LANSING, Mich., Dec, 7.—Chief Elkhart of Pueblo, Colo., laid away Lee Meredith of Toledo in the fifth round of their scheduled ten-round go Friday night.

the present temporary suspension to become permanent. The Hawkeyes were suspended last spring for alleged proselyting of athletes, to become effective Jan. 1. House in Order lowa has done all possible to retain its Eig Ten membership. Right now it has a lengthy brief before the faculty compiitfcee—a brief which sets out that lowa has “put its house in order’’ as ordered and is entitled to Big Ten reinstatement. No one seems willing to talk about what the committee intends doing toward lowa, although there are rumors aplenty. There is the opinion that Michigan, Illinois and Chicago intend voting against the Hawkeyes. Also there are the stories that Wisconsin, Northwestern, Indiana and Purdue will be with lowa in the voting. Opinions seem to differ regarding Minnesota and Ohio. Schedules Held Up The schedule makers are awaiting the faculty committee decision on lowa before making basketball schedules for this season. Those schedule makers were to get into action today if an lowa decision was reached. There was a distinct sentiment toward lowa at the meeting Friday night. One athletic director said he “certainly would give the case a lot of consideration before ousting any one.” Other opinions had it that the Hawkeyes may be continued under suspension for a while longer. There are 41,000 acres less of agricultural land in England and Wales than there were twelve months ago.

Quick Coin Lures This Soldier A YOUNG middleweight from Ft. Harrison, fightunder the name of Soldier Coolsby, climbed into the Armory ring two weeks ago and, two mniutes later, climbed out again, amid the applause of the patrons, having knocked out his opponeftt, Bob Sparks of Anderson, in less than a minute. When he was being paid off after the show, the soldier asked Major Greeene: “How long has this been going on? Let’s do it some more!” So matchmaker is going to give the soldier another whirl and he will be seen in action Tuesday night at the Armor\- in one of the prelims to the Eddie Anderson-Jimmie Reed feature. This time Goolsby will tackle Jimmie Burgess.

Trester Scores Forced Loyalty in High Schools P.y Times Pprrial BLOOMINGTON. Ind., Dec. 7. "Strained loyalty" is the direct result of over-valuation of high school athletes, Arthur L. Trester, commissioner of the Indiana High School Athletic Association, declared here in an address before the Bloomington Kiwanis Club. "When the rooting section of an Indiana high school, representing a majority of the students who are in school to study and make the most of their opportunity, are forced to stand and do high honor to an athlete who has let his studies go, their patriotism is forced," Trester declared. He urged athletics be placed on a higher plane, with stricter attention to rules regarding scholastic eligibility of athletes. Until this situation is brought into force, he said, there can be only strained loyalty on the part of the student for his school.

Favor Diegel to Keep Pro Links Crown Champion Meets Farrell in Finals After Tripping Hagen Friday. BY DUANE HENNESSY United PreM Staff Correspondent LOS ANGELES, Dec. 7.—Leo Diegel of Augua Caliente, Mexico, and Johnny Farrell of New York, started thirty-six holes of match play today to decide the 1929 holder of the Professional Golf Association title. Consistent play through the qualifying and subsequent rounds made Diegel, the defending champion, the favorite. Diegel Brilliant Diegel shot brilliant golf at times Friday as he passed the last barrier to today’s final round, defeating Walter, Hagen, four times winner of the British open and five times wearer of the P. G. A. crown. They went to the thirty-fourth hole before a poor spade shot sent Hagen into a trap, and a missed four-foot putt ended the match, 3 and 2. Farrell, who was national open champion, in, 1928, had a much easier time with A1 Watrous, putting him out, 6 and 5. Watrous began faltering on the second nine of the morning round, Hagen Equals Par Hagen took a par 71 on his first round and Deigel stroked a 69, his third round better than 70 since Monday. Farrell was under 70 only once when he came from behind Thursday to eliminate Craig Wood. Watrous was unimpressive with a 74 on the first eighteen Friday, while Farrell was 2 over par with a 73. Farrell’s best nine of the was 35. In the other match, putting told the story. Diegel curled up like a pretzel and plunked the ball into the cup with genius. His drives were longer than “The Haig’s” but cot always so well placed.
