over a wide field. . . . Just try jotting down potential candidates for whom America’s leading coaches, who are the|. judges in this contest, might vote and you would be surprised at the list. , . . Only men whe are members of the American Football Coaches Association are eligible to cast ballots, and there

are more than 400 of them. ... The association works in co-opera-tion with the New York World-Telegram and Scripps-Howard news-

papers, including The Indianapolis Times, in conducting the college Coach of the Year, being decided for the 14th time, ., . It could be that this contest will approximate the 1941 race, when Frank Leahy of Notre Dame became Coach of the Year on the ballots of the final day. . . . Biggest runaway was in 1940, when Clark Shaughnessy took a non-winning Stanford team of the year before and sent it through an unbeaten season and into the Rose Bowl. . , . Have a look at some potential candidates who might not be too well known outside their own sectors. . .. Take Norm Daniels, who came up with his third straight unbeaten Connecticut Wesleyan team. . .. Norm, an old Michigan tackle, must have had plenty on the ball. . . . Bob Woodruff of Baylor did a good job. . . . Woodruff, incidentally, once was aid to Coach Earl Blaik at Army. . . . Earl’s former pupils are moving along, . ..

Texas Gets Nod as Georgia

Vetoes Other

NEW YORK, Nov. 30 (UP)—Georgia’s Coach Wally Butts was blasted by an avalanche of criticism today for being too

choosy about whom his Bulldogs

But Butts, sticking to his guns, insisted, “I'm not going to sell

my boys down the river.” Officials of the Miami, Fla, selected thrice-beaten, once-tied Texas almost in desperation after Butts ruled out all fellow-mem-bers of the Southeastern Conference as opponents for Georgia. Butts reasoned that his team already had won the conference championship and therefore could gain no prestige—but could lose plenty—in meeting another member of the league New Year's Day. Sent Them Reeling This sent the Orange Bow! selection committee reeling. Just about all of the bowl eligibles out of the league already had been snatched up by other post-season classics, so the committee was counting on some team like Tulane, Mississippi or Vanderbilt—mone of which Georgia played this season—to round out its game. - Butts’ ultimatum eliminated that trio, leaving the Miami people little choice but to take the defeat-splattered Longhorns. In the deep South, the snubbed Southeastern Conference members and their sports editor supporters were enraged, but Butts was unyielding, even offering to withdraw Georgia from the game rather than play a league member.

‘Player of Year’ Drafted by Eagles

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 30 (UP)—Chuck Bednarik, Pennsylvania’s all-purpose center, won-a unique double distinction today when he was named Player of

the Year by the Philadelphia Maxwell Club and was drafted by the Philadelphia Eagles of the National Football League. Bednarik’'s selection as the country’s outstanding football player marked the first time that a lineman was designated for the title by the Maxwell Club. The Eagles, who won the right to make the NFL's first draft selection, chose the husky Bethlehem, Pa., star and thereby gained exclusive NFL bargaining rights to him. If a team in the Allmerica conference also drafts les ‘will have to compete against that rival for the big Pennsylvanian’s services. General Manager Charley Ewart of the Eagles revealed that Bednarik was the personal choice of Earl (Greasy) Neale, head coach of the Eagles. Bednarik, an All-America choice in 1947 and a good bet to make the 1948 All-America team, served in the Army as a B-24 waist gunner.

Wildcats to Start Training Dec. 20 For Rose Bowl!

Times Special CHICAGO, Nov. 30—Northwestern’s football squad will have six days of practice at home and 10 in Pasadena for the game with California in the Rose Bowl. The Wildcats will arrive in Pasadena on the morning of Dec. 20 and immediately set up quarters at Brookside Park, adjacent to the Rose Bowl, where the Chicago White Sox baseball team does its annual spring chores. ” # ”

COACH BOB VOIGTS will take 44 players (the limit allowed by Big Nine rules) and plans several two-a-day practices after the players become accustomed to California weather. Since the Wildcats have no indoor facilities for training, as both Illinois and Michigan had, Voigts is hoping for a continuation of mild weather for the next two weeks. The ‘Cats will be

16-18, which means no work can be done during those three days. » ” ” ALTHOUGH BOTH TEAMS are- limited to 16 days of supervised practice the players ‘may

even punt and pass so long as no coach directs their efforts. Voigts had a meeting with his squad (the first time since the Illinois game) Monday afternoon at which time he outlined training plans. Northwestern has qrdered new purple uniforms and will wear them in the Rose Bowl if California wears white or contrasting

That was the System’s lowest weekly percentage of the season. However counting

late scores from previous weeks, the carry forward record was 83.3 per cent right on 222 scores reported. The first ten teams remained pretty much the same.

Brown's Browns Won by Formula

Best Defense Plus

Power Equal Title

NEW YORK, Nov. 30 (UP)— Cleveland’s indomitable Browns wrapped up their third straight western division title in the AllAmerica Football Conference by the use of a simple, clear-cut formula, official statistics disclosed today. The amazing Browns, who have won all 13 of their games this season, did it with (1.) the best defense in the league, and (2) the ability to turn on the power when they needed it. In offense, Cleveland ranks third behind the record-smashing San Francisco Forty - Niners, whom they beat out for the western division crown, and the Buffalo Bills, eastern division leaders. Yet neither the FortyNiners nor the Bills could overpower the Browns in two meetings each this season. Defense Unequaled And when it came to defense, Coach Paul Brown's charges had no equals. They boast the best league records in scoring defense, total yardage defense, rushing defense and pass defense. Cleveland has yielded only 169 points in its 12 games, has held its opponents ‘to an average of 245.5 yards per game on the ground and through the air, and has given up an average of only 144 yards per game by rushing and 131.5 by passing. The Browns’ pass defense percentage of .443 also is tops in the AAC.

The university has been considering a revamping of its athletic policy for nearly a year, .and has been without an athletic director since James Hagan was ousted before the start of the 1948 season. The school’s athletic committee met last night, and then announced that it probably would name the athletic director today. Chancellor Rufus H.

61 Shots Hit 14 Throws

Oldsters Go All to Pieces as Bob Nipper

Makes Two Fouls in Rapid Succession

By BILL PITTMAN There used to be a superstition around Butler University that -

the season opener the Bulldogs i

crew must have little regard for in their place last night, 72 to 45,

It wasn't really the varsity’s fault they won—they couldn’t help themse

lves. They hit almost half the shots they took from the floor, 29 of 61 to be exact, for a 475 average. They hit 14 of 24 free throws for .576. At the other end of the floor any resemblance to basketball and what was being played was mostly coincidental.

At times Alumni Coach George

"|Perry, class of '39, had some of

the best ball players in the midwest on his side. The first string of Bob Dietz, Jerry Steiner, Lyle Neat, Woody Norris and Wilbur Schumacher kept the old men in the game for most of the first half. , 32 to 22 at Half Half time score was 32 to 22.

And then the alumni went all to pieces as Bob Nipper, Short ridge athletic director inserted himself into the lineup and made two fouls before the varsity knew what struck them.

From then on players entered the alumni lineup so fast the timing system overheated and burned out. The alumni claimed it was a deliberate frameup to cool them off. They had a rally on which had netted three quick points. High-point man for the whole crew was Jimmy Doyle with 18, High scorer for the “Ancient Aces” was Bob Dietz with 11 Nipper and Norris tied with three personals each for the alumni.

An Annual Event

The game, an annual affair sponsored by the B-Men’s Association, many times exhibited basketball at its finest and proved the varsity has not been loafing in practice. They should be able to hand the Illini as much basketball as they can handle Friday night at Champaign, IIL The Bulldogs looked good, but as Tony said, “what can you tell when they play this gang.” Friday night will be the first test of the Bulldogs’ strength and from then on it's a long way to the end of the season.
