\ NEW YORK, Dec. 1.—The United Press presents tod ,

5 1938 All-

America football team—the best players in their positions v.ivsen out of ‘the thousands who have made this season one of the greates: in the his-

tory of the college sport. The team was chosen press boxes, by coaches who have country to the other, by scouts whose business it is to spot the strength and weaknesses of individual players. ~The personnel of the team was decided after a lengthy and complicatéd process that attempted to oh out the best players, whether they come from a small, obscure school or one of the nation’s great universities. Toward the end of the season - sports . writers on newspapers, coaches, scouts and United Press _ football writers across the country! were asked to send in nominations for the All-America team. Each man was requested to choose a first, second and third team and a point system was perfected for BS pac the votes. Out of those ballots came the allAmerica team to assure an unbiased vote and to avoid embarrass"ment for any coach who might want to leave one of his own star play- & ers off the team, the=United Press promised to keep the identity of the '® coaches secret if they so desired. Two great teams—Texas Christian and Pittsburgh—placed two men each on the first team. Other schools presented on the fist team were Notre Dame, Michigan, Tennessee, Santa Clara, Villanova, ‘Duke and Mississippi. Under the point system, a perfect

score would be 360. The players

with their qualifications and the number of points they received:

Ends

Louis Daddio, Pittsburgh, 217 points. He 1s a crashing end on a crashing team that experts consider one of the best in the country despite two defeats. This year he scored one touchdown, made 18 conversions after touchdown and kicked two field goals. Stout on defense and a streak on offense. John Wysocki, Villanova, 189 points. An end on last year’s United Press all-America, he was bothered by injuries in some of this _season’s games, but he remained a cat-lik ze, smart player who crowded “opposing kickers all the time and specialized in blocking punts. He is a fine pass receiver and is a big part of the Villanova offense on end-around plays.

Tackles

Joseph Beinor, Notre Dame, 268 o> + polls. Everybody who voted for or at all placed him on the first except three men. Two of 3 put him on the seeond team and one on the third. ¢ has been an outstanding player the Notre Dame line for the ~ lasf two years. In the Army game, wheén Notre Dame was hard pressed, it was his great defensive play that halted the rush of the Cadets. Alvin Wolff, Santa Clara, 187 points, Standing 6 feet, 2 inches _ tall and weighing 220 pounds, he is completing three years of outstanding football on the Pacific Coast. With all his weight, Wolff is a demon at covering punts and gets down the field even with or ahead of his own ends.

Guards

Ralph Heikkinen, Michigan, 226 . points. He dominated the voting for . guard on ballots from East, West, South and North. He has a trick on defense of jamming the opposition . line and making a hole for a teammate to go through and get the ball carrier. or offense he excels in swinging to lead the interference and i fu n gets in two blocks on a play. Bob Lee Suffridge, Tennessee, 140 points. To him goes the unusual distinction of being an all-America - player in his sophomore year. Maj. Bob Neyland, Tennessee coach, said - “he-is one of the greatest open field “blockers and tacklers I have ever seen.” : ~Creat at diagnosing plays, he has excelled in knocking down passes ang blocking kicks.

. Center

“ Charles Aldrich, Texas Christian, 33 points. The voting never was se in the race for center. Aldrich took the lead over Dan Hill, Duke's sensational player, from the first “ballot and the final count swas Aldrich, 331; Hill, 150. ever injured in a college football game, he can play 60 minutes every game if necessary. Opposing coaches claim he made half of T. C. Us

fensive signals and he intercepted three passes this season.

Quarterback

Y David O’Brien, Texas Christian, "350 points. Only 10 short of perfect. wild Irishman, weighing only 152 pounds, he probably is the nation’s tstanding football player. He passes as well, or better, than Sammy ‘Baugh. He is durable and he can run with the ball as well as He was almost a unanimous choice for: quarterback on the first team. O'Brien threw 19 touchdown passes year and made 28 place kicks ir touchdowns.

Halfbacks

er Hall, Mississippi, 191 points. g cold facts on this giant who : 6 feet 1 inch and weighs 203 are almost unbelievable. jghout a hard season he was for an average of 9.6 yards y time he handled the ball. g scorer in the Southeast-

. he passed 53 yards for a own against Louisiana State en ran back a punt 58 yards

e. He eompleted four straight for a touchdown against jit. He can do anything—

by men who have spent the autumn sitting in taken their teams from one end of the

Harry Kipke. Scored the winning touchdowns uver Colgate and North Carolina State. His greatest performance was in the game with Pittsburgh last Saturday when his punting of a soggy, heavy ball kept tha Pittsburgh team back on its heels and enabled Duke to win. A runner as well as a Kicker, he has carried the ball 114 times for a total gain of 509 yards.

Fullback

Marshall Goldberg, Pittsburgh, 269 points. He was shifted to fullback: on the Pittsburgh team this year to get the benefit of his great blocking ability. In the Penn State and Duke games he wore a sixpound steel brace on his knee, but in the Duke game he gained Tse ground than the total compiled the opposition backfield. This great blocker rounds out . backfield without a weakness— O’Brien to pass, Hall to run, Goldberg to block and Tipton to kick, |

By PAUL B. WILLIAMSON : Notre Dame is to end its season unbeaten, according to the Wil:|liamson Football System’s predictions for week-end football games.

Big Ten May Consider Rose Bowl Arrangement

a CHICAGO, Dec. 1 (U. P.).—Big Ten coaches and athletic directors E [meet today to complete football schedules for the 1942 season and map t | programs for baseball, track, swimming and other secondary sports. : The coaches and directors completed football schedules for the 1940- | 41 seasons last May at a meeting at Columbus, O., but were unable to

complete the 1942 schedule.

Other questions to be considered

tomorrow and Saturday include revised training table rules, whether Big Ten teams should be permitted to accept bids for the annual Rose Bowl game at Pasadena, Cal. The latter proposal was expected to meet several obstacles. One of them is the necessity of keeping Big Ten teams in training for more than a month after the season closes. But that could be eliminated by advancing the date of the bowl games.

There have been reports, wholly unconfirmed, that the Pacific Coast Conference, which annually invites an outside university to compete in the game, is in favor of entering an agreement to meet the champion of the Big Ten ‘each year. If the Big Ten directors and university officials approve competition in the big game, and the Pacific Conference confines its bowl selection to the Big Ten, the game would be only a meeting of the champions of the two loops, thus eliminating the jealousies and difficulties which arise every year when the contender is being selectd.

Lookabill May Get Oklahoma Grid Job

STILLWATER, Okla., Dec. 1 (U. P.) —Oklahoma A. & M. College today awaited a decision of the State Board of Agriculture on the selection of Jim Lookabill, Oklahoma City, as head football coach to succeed Ted Cox, who resigned

Lookabill, coach of the Oklahoma City high school team, was recommended by the athletic cabinet at the school and his approval by the State Board was expected to be a routine matter. Henry Iba, athletic director at A. & M., said Lookabill probably would receive a three-year contract, but terms were not disclosed. He said approximately 50 persons had applied for the post.
