with football In telligence It Is only a matter of history to cite the number of games won and lost by errors In judgment on the part of players direct ing an attack or by bad judgment in handling kicks There have been few big gamqp played this year in which a player catching punts has signaled for a fair catch when the opposing team was on top of him without a safety man to recover the ball or tackle an opponent in case of a fumble Mtn Must Think Quickly Players picked for an honorary eleven must be quick thinkers They must act and think at the same time for a mo hesitation often disas trously The men I have selected are players of this type All of them have been in tight places and they have come out with colors flying It Is regretted no Michigan players can be taken into consideration in the selec tion of these two teams Weston quarter back and Lambert center would be logical selections for these positions but as neither played against a Conference team it would be unjust to other Big Ten players to place them on an all star Con ference aggregation Neither played in the game against Northwestern the only Big Ten team Michigan played this year Both are great

season It Is now time to honor the players who have done the most consistent work and have been of most value to their teams A football sea son is not considered complete until such honorary elevens are chosen says Walter Eckersall In the Chicago Tribune In selecting an all star team every angle of football must be taken Into consideration A composite team must be selected which will work with co ordina tion of attack and defense must be placed in positions where they will be of the greatest value A team can have just as much success if It is taught team play as one that has two or three stars

The game was the most spectacular ever witnessed in Indianapolis The contest started fast The Amer icans won the toss and chose to kick On the kickoff the forwards worked the ball down toward the Anderson goal but were unable to put it between the posts The visiting aggregation did some excel lent passing and many times eluded the American back field men Capt Leigh regained the ball and worked

opportunity to score This was directly after the kickoff Clay ton and put Me ball would have gone between the posts had it nut been blocked by one of his own plavers who had fallen down Im mediately

his Signals crossed In an impromptu speech When an active tlavcr Thonias usually delivered when upon In a pinch but on this occasion he perpetrated what may be termed a happened a few years ago at Miwouli Mont where a team representing the Na tional League and the then world champion Athletics were to stage a game en route to Honolulu (or the athleti 111 Hianv he referred to the advantages that the player no a not i who did It so happened that the town had arranged what the accurate passing of the center means Coach 5Vnce employs plays of such character that if the ball is not passed fast And accurately the plays will not be sucoesRful The Buckeye has not made a costly all year Some of the credit given Chick Harley for his punt ing and field 4 goal kicking should go to VanDyne Much of success was due to Simpson who is placed at quarter back Although the Badger can be rightfully criticised for mistakes in cer tain games he more than made up for his errors in other struggles He is a fast open field runner is quick to get under1 way and once loose in the open is a hard man to stop He is a good field general and is always careful to con serve the physical strength of his team by not working any player too often Defensively he is a great player He is a sure catcher of punts and a deadly tackler He is quick to size up plays and continually directs his teammates to the point of attack Chick Harley of Course Speaking of half backs the first name one would mention would be that of Harley of Ohio State An All American selection last year he should be given the honor again Harley is placed at right half where his ability can be uti lized to the best advantage He is with out question one of the best kickers in the as good an open field runner as has been seen in years and a power on defense Aside from running the ends and driving on or'off the tackles Harley is an accurate forward passer as was shown by his showing against Wisconsin Although not as brilliant a performer as Harley Ellingwood of Northwestern largely' because of his stellar work in the Michigan game is placed at left half The Purple star is a consistent all round player He can kick run the ends catch punts and forward passes and is a reliable man in the interference He Is equally strong defensively Koehler at ull Back Koehler another Northwestern player is placed at full back although

State who led the Buckeye eleven to its second con secutive championship is selected to play left tackle on the all conference eleven of 1917 and is made captain Courtney' and his brother who played the other tackle were instrumental in mak ing the Ohlq forward wall nearly im pregnable The Buckeye captain is a natural Yoot ball player There is Hardly anything he does not know about his position He helps his end box an opposing tackle and varies his charge in such a manner as to keep an opponent guessing all the time He generally gets down the field under kicks as fast as the ends and is a fast runner for a bffr man Capt Hauser of Minnesota Is placed at right tackle where no one questions his right The Gopher Is a capable football player and a natural leader Despite their defeat at the hands of Wisconsin Hauser kept his players from becoming down 1 hearted and it was due to his rallying (leadership that the team got together and defeated Chicago and Illinois Two Strong Ends The selection of Hauser and Courtney makes the wings of the forward wall so strong that an opponent would have trou ble making ground off or over them Randolph of Northwestern Rundqulst of Illinois and Ecklund of Minnesota played hard and steady football all season Kelly of Wisconsin is placed at right end not so much because of his brilliant playing as because of his steadiness in every game The Badger is a good end of the type of Juneau 'Bush and Abbott three of the best who ever wore a Car dinal uniform Kelly is a hard player who always turns his men to the inside when an opposing team attempts an end run and he has covered punts to perfec tion On offense he helps his tackle open up holes and is ever mindful to break through and take off one of the second ary defense when the play Is sent on or off the other side of the line Bolen of Ohio is selected for right end TL has been an important cog in the Buckeve machine for the last two years Ike Kelly he knows and executes the duties of end play in a manner seldom seen on the gridiron He is fast a sure tackler and a reliable receiver of forward i passes Higgins Shifted to Guard Although Higgins of Chicago was dominant factor in Maroon victories year he is not a natural full back Special to The Indianapolis Star CHICAGO Dec Major league base ball will be put on a war basis next year to such an extent that some of tpe high priced stars will be compelled to travel in upper berths and sustain life on $250 a day The railroads themselves will be responsible for the former The owners will get the blame for the latter The transportation situation will be forced on to baseball automatically The wfar ra tions will be an artificial adjunct to the many economic measures owners have in prospect and which will be discussed next week It has been derided by both leagues that it will be best to make the 'national game appear as normal as possible next season This will provide for a regular training' season as well as a noisy open ing If war conditions do not rob the owners of all their material they un doubtedly null finish the season that is in the major circuits It is doubtful if a single minor league will go the distance next year The betting at present is 2 to 1 against it Older League It Is the National League which has been the loudest for econoihy for next year The majority of the own ers in the older circuit are for Long schedule of 154 games in five and a half months Regularly scheduled double headers in order to increase the attendance and make the game more commercial than ever A player limit of eighteen men (A few are sticking for seventeen) A training season of thirty days A maximum allowance of $250 a day for meals A contract which calls for monthly payments duration of which would automatically stop salaries as soon as owners close the season which might be weeks in advance of the date original ly set A war clause In every contract A revision of holdover contracts
