HANLEY, Northwestern coach, took so much punishment durthe Purple-Irish midwest title game it was necessary for him to be lugged off for a long rest. The nervous strain got him down and he suffered more agony than his defeated players. His boys were trying to give him a birthday present in the way of a whopper victory but couldn t make the grade and it s a good guess he felt ninety years old instead of thirty-five by the Jime the struggle ended. *** # n n Hanley’s experience bears out the contention that college grid coaches often become punch drunk in the manner of baseball pilots and prize fighters as they play the tough games on the bench striving to guide their stars by mental telepathy out on the white lines.

He gathered a lot of information, at that, but it didn’t cover sixty minutes of warfare. a a ft Rabbit Weller, Haskell Indian half back, is pointed to burn up the turf in Cincinnati Thursday. It was explained he was held out of the Butler game here due to injuries, but many fans who went out to sec h*m perform took the explanation with a grain of salt. Newspapers were led to believe the star would see seme act'on and a lot of valuable space was wasted boosting him. a tt tt THE Haskell management denied Weller intentionally was kept on the sidelines as a protest against the light gate. For that matter the size of the home-coming crowd was a disappointment to both teams. a tt a The business depression has spread to South America.

CHICAGO. Nov. 25.—Notre Dame, one of the nation's four undefeated and untied teams, and Northwestern, co-champion of the Big Ten, share a majority of the places on the mythical all-western football team selected today by "the United Press, With twelve places on the first team, including an alternate, Notre Dame players were awarded four of them. Northwestern three, and Michigan, Purdue, Ohio State, Nebraska and Haskell one each. Numbered among this first dozen are some of the country’s greatest gridiron stars. Captain Conley of Notre Dame and Frank Baker of Northwestern are two of the finest ends of the year.
Wesley Fesier of Ohio State, who comes close to being the greatest all-round player of the year in the Big Ten, received the alternate berth on the first team. Fesier played end on defense, and in the back field on offense. Every member of the backfield is a candidate for all-America recognition. Frank Carideo, Notre Dame quarter back, who 'won allAmerica honors last season, has piloted his team through seven-teen-straight victories in two years without a defeat or tie. Marchy Schwartz, whose long runs have featured almost every Notre Dame victory, is one of the country’s most dangerous runners. He also is a superb passer. Weller, 155-pound Haskell Indian half back, is considered the best running back ever developed in the Missouri Valley region. Reb Russell, Northwestern full back, is the middle west’s foremost plunger. He gained more ground than any player on either team in the Notre Dame-Northwestern game. Another all-western nominee who is bidding for a berth on the allAmerica team is little Bert Metzger, 153-pound Notre Dame guard who is considered the fifth man in the Irish back field. Most of Notre Dame’s long runs have been direct-

ly traceable to great blocking by Metzger. Wade Woodworth, Northwestern’s spectacular guard, was a star in one of the best lines in any section. Woodworth’s speed and ability made it possible for him to play his position like an end. The tackles, Rhea of Nebraska, and Van Bibber of Purdue were both powerful defensive players. Rhea, weighing 195 pounds, was considered the best lineman in the Big Six. Michigan’s powerful defensive team, which had only 26 points scored on it, was built around Maynard Morrisor, 210-pound center. He rarely was itplayed in a series of hard games. High Released to Rochester By United t'rees ST. LOUIS. Nov. 25.—Andy High, utility infielder with the St. Louis Cardinals, whose pinch hitting figured in the Cardinals’ pennant dash, was released outright to the Rochester Red Wings of the International League today.
