diked in niud, with oo7. still slime seeping from ears, eyes anil mise, two mighty Central siholnstii! elevens, Williamsort and Allonnn, battled 1o II (10 score befure. -MM M) fsns, It the Cricket 'ield here today. It was tin cxh-1ir1 cinch wliirh carried with it the title of conference champion of Central Pennsylvania and tonight the crown ii still undecided. It was the nenond meeting- Detween two rivals thin year, Altoona having met their Hillport fes less than i month sgo in what wai known is a non-conference Hemp.

Wolf's pupils copped this verdict, to tut ImiIik with greater nriae it stake hii inspired Maroon and Whit eleven nrOKO 10 auiireuie neigiua auu iiriu mfmi to fin count. The rules of the conference forbid an additional play-off and appropriate cups will be given the leader in each lection. Altoona rooters gloried in what they mil moral victory. Outweighed hy a Kin lit Williasinport eleven by what looked fifteen pounds to 1 man, Snaps Emanuel's hoys fought their foes tooth ml null. Not on were tnev Hand I capped by the discrepancy In poundage, but (heir tHk was made more difficult by the muck which wis called a grid iron.

Altoona Withstands Blllport Thrust It was expected that on I slippery field Hoi Wolf's pupils would be able to plunge their way through the lighter local line. Hut Hit Maroon and While made up in grit ind fight what they lacked in poundage. Wiltisnmmnt made the only auslain ed advance of the afternoon which mlirht have resulted in a touchdown Immediately aflcr the opening of the second hnlf, this powerful machine niiirched from their own 41-yard line through Altoons'a three-yard stripe be. fore Snaps Kinsniiels eleven took tne boll awsy on downs. This was the mis big thrill of a battle that wss otherwise fought out wit hin the 30-yard lines.

It gave both rooting sections a etisnce to gn into hysterics, Williamsport first when it sensed a touchdown and Altoona last after tha inspired stand of. the home eleven. The thrust atarted with Swarfs running back Thompson's kickoff to his 44-yard line. In two snnaahea at the line, one by Sssssmsn and the other by Kweitxrr, the Cherry and White made a first down on the locals' 45-yard mark. Here Kninnuel's hoys braced twice and isnk Hillport ball carriera in tht mud without a gsin.

Hut on the next play. Hweiliser, fleet IilgHkin totcr of the visitors, splattered ila way through the mud and slime around Altonna's left end for eighteen yards before he wss brought to earth by Weld. The Cherry and While stands were In an uproar. It waa Williamsport'! first powerful offensive thrust of the dny and. remembering the team's penchant for second-half scores, they visioned a touchdown.

Nassninan, pile-driving fullback of the visitors, was handed the pigskin and he dug trench through the Altoona line for five yards. Hwarts added to the consternation in the Altonna rooting section when he skidded off left end for three yards. But the harrassed fans drew a sigh of relief when the ball wss called bsck snd Williamsport penalized live yards for offside. Two more line smashes netted two yards and the spectre of a touchdown appeared to have vanished. Sweitser, however, sent the Billportera into a fnnnlical freniy with a beautifully eie.

ruled pass to Grimberg. Aa Grim-berg nestled the leather in his arms near the side line it looked as if he had a free sprint of ten yards to the goal, but a host of Altoona tacklcrs jumped out of nowhere and he was thrown out of bounds but four yarda from the final chalk mark. In terror Altoona called time out and Captain Hush gathered his men into a feverish huddle. May was resumed with the panic-stricken Mnroon and White rooters shouting "Hold that line" while from the Williamsport section bellowed the cry "Touchdown." The ball was entrusted to Naasaman and he hit the centre of the Altoona line on a quick buck with the force of a pile-driver. The local line wavered then came back and flattened him with hi nose in the mud and no gain.

Sroeil-er then elected to swing around Captain Hush's left flank. As he skirted around end he was aftne except for the lender. Tv flew at SweiUer and brought him to the muddy turf for a two-yard loss.

spot in the line and again he hit a stone wall. Lone Scoring Throat Dispelled Rweitzer then staked all on a forward pass, a flat toss over the centre of the line to Lorens. The Hillport end stood with one foot in the end inne and one in (he field as the muddy and slippery pigskin came toward him. Jle reached up in the air and touched the slippery oval, but his slimy finders could not grssp It and the ball dropped to the end sone an incomplete pass It was Altoona'a ball on the 20-yard line. lie first and only scoring threat of the day had been iinllotined Inspired by their successful stsnd, Snaps Emanuel's lints then uncorked their one big sustained advance.

It carried them from their own 20-yard line to Hiilport's 4-ysrd line. Hut there it halted and neither team was dangerous from then on. (jrnund gained in scrimmage waa practically equally divided between the two elevens, r.sch machine earned live downs. Williamsport gsined one of theira on a pass, while Altoona netted theirs all by rushes. In fact, it cannot be recalled that Altoona attempted an aerial.

Trnhably one of the most remarkable features of the game was the splendid punling and lack of fumbles. Handling a ball that was aa illusive as an cel. these youngsters were letter perfect. Weld, of Altoona, in particular, did apirnling which waa beautiful. The safety men on both machines also received the kicka without the least attempt to let them hit the ground or otherwise proteat themselves.

There were few bad passes from the centres and neither team had a fumble which they did not recover themselves, Field I Quagmlra To say that the game waa played in a Quagmire would be putting it feebly. After the first few ptajs the men were mud from head to foot with rival players practically indistinguishable. The battle was hnlted at least fifteen timea to wipe the mud and noxe off the ball. Iletween halves Wil liamsport changed pants, but in two plays the new ones were in ma same condition as the old ones. The one big gun in the attack for Altoona was Milton, dusky fullback.

At timea he ripped the bulky Williams-nort line for five yards at a clip and of the five first downs credited to the Altoona boys he wss responsible for four. On tha defense he also waa a power. Captain Hush wis also a big factor in the gallant stand made by Altoona. To come down to brasa tacka all the local boya covered themselvea with glory. i The Williamsnort men naturally earned equal laurels.

In that four "8" backfield of Sweitier, KwarU, Shulls and Saaaaman, each did his bit. I'ainton, who relieved Suults in both the second and fourth periods, also wss a ronslnnt threat to Altoona. That powerful Hillport line also proved to lie as good as waa promised. Aiiooni never threatened its goal. Officials Named for Miami Meet MIAMI, Te.

will relala hia farmer poalllno By BRIAN BELL Tha fifth annual All-American football team, compiled by The Associated Press, developed a sew high mark for co-operation in tha endeavor. More tnan 200 eiperta 215 la exact figures, answered the appeal of tha Associated Press for choice! In bestowing the game's highest honors. Sports editors and football writers of newspapers from every section of the United Slates North, South, East and West joined with coaches, officials, scouts and Staff writers of the Associated Preaa, la selecting the outstanding men in their poaitions throughout tht Nation. Aa tht football players of all the colleges, big and little, played their Raines, the eyes of Tht Associated Presa were upon them. Three teams were selected, the ranking being determined by the ballots.

Mlddlt West Lead! The first team honora Went the Middle West, where rugged football waa tht order of a great season, with five places. The East, which bed one of its greatest yenrs, placed four, with the other two positions divided between the South and the Pacitic Coast. Two great teams, Notre Dame and Pittsburgh, qualified two players esch for the All-American, the first time in five years that one team has bad two such outstanding all-stars. Another odd development threw Touugstown, Ohio, into the glare of the sports spotlight, for, the two ends, Fesler, of Ohio State, and Donchess, of Pittsburgh, are fellow townsmen. The East outnumbered the other lections in tht make-up of tht squad of thirty-three named, placing twelve, to nine for the Middle West, six for the South, five for the Far West and one for tht South West.

Carldeo a Standout There was do doubt as to the selection of the quarterback when the balloting nit its full stride. frank Carideo, "the brains of Notre Dame," moved oat in front on the early returns and waa never threatened. Be ran up an impressive total of 123, with Allon Marsters, the injured Dartmouth star, aecond with 46 and little Albie Booth, rale's apark plug. 20 points behind the green quarter. Joe Dtinehess.

Pittsburgh's stalwart end. was almost aa convincing. He waa credited with 121 points, with Wesley Feeler, of Ohio State, taking the other flank position with fH. No other ends menaced the position of the leaders. Frank Tappaan, Southern California, qualified for the aecond team with 61.

along with Vernon (Catfish) Smith, of Georgia, who hid 20 Frank Under, of Northwestern, and Wear Schoonover, of Arkansas, were supported by 27 and 16 respectively, to complete the three teams. Sleight Lad Tacklei Elmer (Red) Sleight, 200-pound streak of Purdue, led all the tackles of the country with 82 choices, and another fast big man, Bronko Nagurs-ki, however, was favored by 50 other close observers for fullback. He bas also played end and guard at odd times. Ted Twomey, of Notre Dame, and Sain Wakcman. Cornell, ran neck and neck and landed together on tbe second team, Twomey with 56 and Wake-wan scoring 5'i.

Jap Dnuds, Washington Jefferson, and Fred Sington, Alabama, completed the tackles honored with Fay Vincent of Tale, nosed out by a whisker. Jack Cannon, Notre Dame's fighting guard, showed the way in his position with 88 choices. 30 more than Bert Schwarta of California. Bay Montgomery. Pittsburgh, and Waldo (Firpo) Greene, l'ale, were given almost identical support and ran well ahead of the tenacious Jack Law of Notre Dame and Ray Farria, the versatile North Carolina guard.

Ticknor Out la Trent Ben Ticknor, harvard'! busy anap-per-back, won tht centre award by twenty votea from Roy Riegels, California captain, whose splendid play throughout the season made the football world forget that he once ran the wrong way with the ball. Ticknor, a big, strong, roving centre, who was the defensive star of Harvard in every game, polled eighty-three votea for the place. Tony Siano, Fordham captain, another sterling defensive player, barely won the third honor In a close contest with Tim Moynihan. Notre Dame's inspirational centre, who suffered a broken bone in hia leg in the next to the last game on the Natre Dame schedule. With the qtisrterbark position consigned to Cnrideo beyond dispute by the landslide vote he polled, the other back-held positiona developed more of a contest Octavious (Toby) Dansa, Pittsburgh, led the halfbacks with the highly complimentary tolal of 105 votes for one halfback position, and Keener Cagle, Army captain and an All-America choice of V.VH, took the other place when he was given seventy-one votes to sixty-four for Ralph (Pest) Welch, of Purdue.

The South won representation In the backfield of the second eleven when thirty-seven votea for Gene McEver. Triar Extr ciiiim, aiissoun; ueinecKe, Stanton!

Costlaued From leather within three yards of the Giants' goal line. Aa a result, Moran was forced to punt out from far behind New lork's goal line, and "Two-Bits" Homsn, mik ing an adroit catch on the enemy'a 40- yard stripe, came back ten yards. This wss very encouraging, and there was great joy among the spectators when Oeblnch speared a forward thrown by Diehl for a nrst down rm the (iimils' 19-yard mark. Then Halicki ripped off tackle for seven more, and the Jackets were in scoring position. DichI tried centre, but got only a yard, and then the visitors stood as a stone wall covered with muddy fungus.

Diehl was rammed in the mud for a lose of two yards, and. going into the air, the same player threw a forward that hit the ground. As a result the Giants took the ball on downs on their own 13-yard mark. The Giants were not out of trouble, however, for Moran got away a miserable punt that slithered off his foot to one side, and Oehlrich, picking up the bounding ball, got bark four yards to New York' 21-yard mark. Aerial Sortie Falls Diehl fought his way through on a straight buck for two arils, but on the neit play waa trapped behind the line of scrimmage when attempting a forward pass, and was brought down for a loss of nine yards.

Two for wards were tried, both being rrounded. and as the Giants took the ball on downs, the half came to an end. This was aa close as rrankford could come to scoring. During the third period the ball waa in possession of the Jacketa much of the time, but never were they able to penetrate deep a a It in Fifty- It too (wrlods I Triangle imt to id Dint Montana: twaltlorf, Missouri Hart.

The game, which waa well played, wss jnaiked by some humorous situations, one of which was in the third period when the referee yelled "fourth down and one yard to go for a touch down" when a Koulh Hranch player had caught a forward pass and made a first down on the West iirancn one yard line. The spectators saw the official's mis take and many of them were raining bearish growls until the referee cor rerted his error and told the Houfh Branch plavera they had a first down and one yard to go for a touchdown.

McCalllom Stars This youth wss the slsr of the con test and he'took a hand in producing of his team three touchdowns. He scored the first one in the opening pe riod, when he dashed around left end for a twenty-five-yard gain, after Stuart had received a forward paas from him, snd idvsnced the ball to the West Hrsnch twenty-yard mark.

McCalliom. who is the son of Walter McCallinm. former professions) bas ketball slsr of this city, was hurt in the fourth period and removed from the battle.

At this point the forward wall of the Houth Branch outfit drew on Ita grit and repulsed three successive lie; thrusts. On the fourth down.

Quarterback Clyde Crabtree led the march toward a Florida victory over the Sweltering Oregmiinns with an SO-yard dash down the Gridiron in the second quarter for the first touchdown of the game.

leirk. Anderi Nt had he lining within New Tork'a territory. Once first down waa pounded out with the assistance of a penalty for offside, and an eight-yard buck by Halicki brought the play to the Giants' 37-yard line. Here the enemy made a stsnd, and Diehl waa forced into the sir. His pass was intercepted by Bay Flaherty, and that was the end of that Hay's feat resulted in the action being shifted into Frankford territory, and there it remained until, with six minutes to play, the Jacketa took the ball on downs on their own 28-yard mark and started an offensive that brought the ball five yards past mid-field.

Three ofTsiile penalties inflicted on the Gianta made thia advance possible. But Frankford could not stand prosperity, for, with the ball on New York's 45-yard line, the Jackets tried forward with Wilson making the toss. wis a beautiful forward but unfortunately it went as straight toward Feather as though shot from a gun, Ftathet Naba Pass Tt wss no trick at all for the Giant fullback to snuggle the oril In his inns and speed to his left, past the floundering Jsckets, who ippeared to be completely mired. The only man who bid ny chance it ill to nail the runner waa Homan. but he wn tiken out aa he drove for the runner on the 7-yard line.

Plinsky failed to gather in the extra point with a placement. Following the next kick-off there waa an exchange of punts, and then the whistle sent the embattled gladiators to their respective dressing rooms, where they started to dig themselvea out. By diligent work, they may get cleaned up for their return battle New Tork today.

i Capitalising the breaks and successfully subduing Georgia Tech'a back-field aces, Thomason and Mizell, the University of Georgia today won the twenty-fifth gridiron meeting of the two institutions by a score of 12 to 0. Scoring early in the first period on a fourth-down pass from Chandler to the Bulldogs held their edge until midway of the third period when Holt, substitute for Watkins, recovered Chandler's blocked kick behind tbe goal line. Georgia's final touchdown and margin of victory also came as a result of a blocked kick in the final quarter. Hryant, substitute for Rose, crashed through the Georgia Tech forward wall to block Miizell'a punt. The ball shot far tip into the air, but Bryant was under it when it came down and scam pered some forty yards for the score.
