'VTEW YORK, Dec. 21.—0f all the sports gentry who take pen in hand and indite erudite passages to the newspapers, the football filbert, God bless him and keep him, is the most prolific—and generally the most entertaining. And I might add the must violent when you inadvertently ignore his alma tomato, as Mr. Billy Gibson used to call her. Some time ago I received an extraordinary accumulation of football antepasto from Mr. V. E. Clark, but up to now I have delayed due to chronic lethargy in getting it in type. Together with his letter the gentleman included a tabulation of di.'t nguished performers, grouped in various all-time, allstar and even all-letter combinations. A part of ?ho letrer: “I have set down in addition to my ideas as to the n t s.x ail-time teams, a number of combinations which may be of 11 followers For fxample. can ar.y of your readers combine a team from initials of any other letter of the alphabet which can beat my *H team? Perhaps competition among your readers would be popular.” an n nun lETS 'art with his “H” team. The ends are Hardwick of Harvard -j ant: Hazel of Rutgers; the tackles Henry of W. and J. and Hubbard of Genet a; the guards, Hfffeifinger of Yale and Hare of Penn; center, Hein of W hu gton State; quarter back. Harpster of Carnegie Tech; other back H>. -on of Michigan Harley of Ohio State, and Hinkle of Bucknell. Vic -• fi m any section of the alphabet this is quite a team and I imagin'* it would lake a great deal of head-scratching and letter-digging to assemble a much stronger one beginning with any other initial. Still I am not sure that the gentleman made the best of the available “H s.” Certain;'.- -h near old Yales will question the absence of Hinkey at end, and how ran :hat old guy of Chicago, one of the greatest backs Os . ;. r left off? It s probably a good thing Capone's in the stir or there would be some around these parts, stranger, by gar. nan ana II THAT do you think would have happened if Southern California’s W gnat team of 1031 had come up against Harvard’s 1914 array of wonri- r men—ah! there's a melodic phrase for you. laddy bucks. Remember the lineups? Os course you don't. Neither do I. Let’s look at the chart again. Southern California: Ends, Arbelbide and Sparling; tackles, Brow-n and Smith (alias Brown and Smith*; guards. Baker and Rosenberg; center, Williamson; backs. Mohler, Shaver. Pinkert and Musick. Now a little old-time music for the 1914 Harvards, professor. This was their lineup; Ends. Hardwick and Curtis; tackles, Trumbull and Gilman; guards, Pennock and Darimum; center, Taylor; backs, Logan, Mahan, Bradlee and King. Which would you pick? Personally, I like Southern California, largely for the modest, demure manner In w-hich the little boys and girls out that way take their football. nan nun HOW would you like to have seen the 1933 Michigan line playing with the 1930 Notre Dame back field as a team, or—well, let's go rompletely di/.zy, and imagine what would have happened if the 1930 Notre Dame backs had to try to gain against the 1933 Michigan forwards. At this point, it is politely requested that none of the inmates leave the premises until the keepers arrive. What was the 1933 Michigan line, Napoleon? It was nice of you to ask me. my dear Wellington. The line had Pctoskev and Ward at ends, Wistert and Austin at tackles. Borgman and Hildebrand at guards, and Bernard at center. Even Doc Dafoe "couldn’t produce a better line, you'll probably agree But Knute Rockne’s 1930 bark field, functioning fullpowered. was not exactly a collection of spoiled caviar tid bits. The brilliant Caridco called the signals and Schwartz, Savoldi and Brill did the heavy work. I pass on this one. nan ana THE boys, right or wrong, are calling Minnesota one of the greatest teams of all time this year, so you may be interested in taking a loose neck gander at an all-time all-star Minnesota team. It gees this way; Baston and Haycraft, ends; Nagurski and Walker, tackles; Munn and Gibson, guards; Oen. center; McGovern, Lund, Martineau and Joesting, backs. This is Mr. Clark's dream team. I'd make at least one change. I'd put Bevan at guard instead of Munn. or Gibson cither, for that matter. Otherwise it represents a team that even Mr. Brisbane’s one-column-set gorilla could not score against. Since Nagurski is now the greatest line-smashing back in professional football—and very likely the greatest in the history of the game—it may surprise you to see him listed as a tackle. But you shouldn't be. because he played tackle and end in college and was good enough at both to inspire the press box to lyrical madness.

Pepper Martin Cheers Ailing Lad in Hospital Jimmy Reluctant to Say ‘Goodbye’ After Being Entertained by Cardinal Star and Cowboy Band.

BY LELAND L. CHESLEY United Press Staff Correspondent ST. LOUIS, Dec. 21.—Disheartened and incapacitated, little Jimmie Donahue, 15, today prepared to wave a reluctant good-bye from his hospital window as his new found friend, John (Pepper) Martin, Cardinals’ third baseman, leaves for home.

The boy, an ardent baseball fan, has become a stanch friend of the Cardinals’ star while Martin spent a week in St. John’s Hospital to relieve an arm injury. Jimmy, who has been in the hospital for ?9 months suffering from a bone infection, the result of playing baseball, was one of Martin's first callers. When Pepper arrived for a minor operation, Jimmy cautiously peeked around the half open door. Martin invited him in. Since then Jimmy and Pepper have been together daily. nun I'M GOING to ask Sam Breadon to give him a pass to all games next year,” Martin said. “He’s a swell kid, but can he ask questions? I'll say he can.” Jimmy has never seen a world series game, so Martin promised: “If the Cards win the pennant next year, I'm going to see that you are at all the home games.” Although Jimmy has been enjoying the last week of his prolonged

stay, other patients are not so patient. Martin’s so-called brass band has disturbed the peace of nearly everybody in the hospital, so Pepper was put in “isolation.” Martin was ordered to the sparsely populated north wing when he insisted that his cowboy band entertain him. The Cardinals’ star, demanding entertainment, hired the band from a radio station. n n a MARTIN'S quarters took on the appearance of the old time Western frontier when the musicians clumped into the North wing, wearing ten-gallon hats, hig hheeled boots, bright-colored bandanas and streamlined pants. One had a cartridge belt and a revolver. With Martin and Donahue for their audience, the band began to play. They hanged “Jeff Davis to a Sour Apple Tree.” They pleaded “Hand Me Down My Walking Cane.” They revealed that “She’ll Be Coming Round the Mountain When She Comes.”
