It is the first time in 10 years that the two institutions have met. They are both neighborhood and traditional rivals and this year's meeting was arranged only after considerable dickering.

Ther was little dispute or difference of opinion about the quarterback berth. "Dreary" Drury of U. S. won it, hands down. Welch was the best back in the east, save for Bruce Caldwell, of Yale, who was not considered by United Press sports editors because of ids ineligibility.

Even the greatest ball carriers would be stopped without good interference, and for that reason Christy Flanagan, greatest of ball carriers, himself, but doubly effective in clearing the way for others, has been named. Rockne regards his star halfback as the greatest interference man in years. As nearly a unanimous choice as seemed possible this year was Joest-ing, of Minnesota, for the fullback job. He got it, with scarcely a dissenting vote. SECOND, THIRD TEAMS.

From the selections and recommendations of sports editors and coaches, two other All-America elevens, a second and third team, were named so that most of the year's gridiron great receive recognition. The lineup: SECOND TEAM. Born, Army, end. Pickard, Alabama, tackle. Webster, Yale, guard.

By FRANK GETTY, United Press Staff Correspondent. Chicago, Nov. 25. Notre Dame and Southern California, whose elevens meet here tomorrow in the big intersectional game of the year, and Minnesota, whose team was unbeaten this season in western conference football, each have two representatives on the AU-American football team of 1927, selected by sports editors of United Press newspapers throughout the country and uPOTV recommendation of leading coacheR.

The east has hut three representatives on this outstanding national eleven, and the south has one. A score of football coaches, including Knute Rockne, Lou Young, Arnold Horween. Wallace Wade, G. C. Woodruff, C.

Drury, Southern California, quarterback. Welch, Pittsburgh, halfback. Flanagan, Notre Dame, halfback. Joestingr, Minnesota, fullback. A majority of the sports editors It will be seen, favored the western and mid-western stars to those of the east and south.

The ability of outstanding performers of the Army, Navy, Yale, Princeton and Dartmouth was not overlooked, but the claims of the men finally recognized for the i season's All-America honors were held to be paramount. A TABLE MACHINE. Certainly the eleven selected as a result of the country wide survey is one of the greatest ever compiled, an eleven which might easily have accomplished what all others failed to achieve this season, the winning of the national championship. Oosterbaan, of Michigan, still stands without an equal among the great ends of football. His choice was unanimous.

Capt. Shiver, of Georgia's unbeaten eleven, which defeated Yale, was named for the other wing position, it being generally recognized that his playing, both on the attack and defense, has been largely responsible for Georgia's success this season.
