Green Cops Game THE JOURNAL I Y.a««.wm i SPORT PAGE All American Team On "the Trail" I OF SPORT Will. The "post-Camp" era Ali- Ameriea football selection, BOW in its sixth year, has been dominated by the Notre Dame pupils of Professor Knuto Rocknc. Including the three Bough Riders picked this year for All- America honors in the consensus compiled Tjy Tho Associated Press, Notre Dame has produced a total of seven stars for the honor rolls of 1925-30. Before his death, Walter Camp named only two representatives of Notre Dame on his first-string selections, Gipp at fullback in 1920 and Stuhldreher at quarterback-in 1924, Camp's last year as the official ar- 'ijjer of these gridiron affairs, This total of nine for the decade of all-star selection, oh the Camp and Associated Press lists, reflects the dominant position Notre Dame has assumed under the coaching of Rockne. Tho University of Michigan, in tho same period, occupied eight places on the All-Amorican honor roll.

Yale, Harvard and West Point received six nominations. The change in gridiron times is more clearly emphasized by para-ding the complete tabulation of All-America figures since 1889. They show that as a result of the early domination of the old Big Three, Yale gained 85 places, Harvard 75 and Princeton 56 during the 36 years that Camp made his selections. This accounted for more than half if the total selections, numbering JOB. Times have changed but the task of overhauling those figures appears insurmountable, even for an outfit traveling as fast and successfully along the national football high-road as Notre Dame.

Tho All-America process covers oo much ground nowadays for any to run up the totals the way- it was possible forJYalc, Princeton, Harvard and Pennsylvania to do vhen tho selections virtually were imited for years to these colleges. For the third time Alabama's Crimson Tide will invade the far west to struggle for foot- hall supremacy against a Pacific Coast team in the annual Tournament of Roses game New Year's Day. As things now stand the west has i total of 194 points while tho east's otal is 123. The west has won icvea games, the cast five and three )t tho contests were tied, Alabama iguring in one of the lie-up games, touchdowns the west leads, 27 'olS. Since the inauguration of the New Year's games southern football teams have never lost to the coast defenders, although Alabama and Stanford tied 7 to 7 in 1927 after having defeated Washington by a one- point margin, 20-19, in 1926.

Georgia Tech won its game in 1929 by a one-point lead of io 7 (gainst California. The largest 4coro in the history of the Rose Bowl games was 1930 when South- 1 California uurgh, 47-14. bowled over Pitts. In 1918 and' 1919 teams played and split even.

ll.VItKEK A.ssoHnfetl Prfxx Sports Writer Xew York, Dee. 13. The 31st football clash between the Army and Xavy today gives the unemployed a helping hand to, the extent of three- quarters of a miliion dollars. Some 70,000 persons purchased tickets for the Yankee Stadium. There were strong hopes that receipts not only from ticket sales but from incidental concessions might to a 'total of $1,000,000.

Whatever the total, football history can point to no previous game involving: such prodigious financing. Army Is "Weakened Xavy's smashing triumph over Pennsylvania last week did more than all tho publicity in the world to start a spurt in ticket sales. The Midshipmen revealed a smoothly working, powerful attack and a rugged defense against Penu and their stock took a sharp rise. Another factor in the swing toward the Xavy was the conviction, held in somo that the Army could not hope to regain tho form (ho Cadets showed against- Xotre Dame when they bowed by a onc- point margin. Ariny also has been weakened by injuries but still loomed a formidable, machine for any opposition.

Cadet Corps Attract -Attracting almost as much interest ns tho players themselves, 'were the corps of Cadets and the- regiment oE Midshipmen whose maneuvers have added much to the color of previous Army-Navy games. Numerous notables from official Washington were here for the game but most of the crowd was made- up of just plain fans who had paid any where, from $5 to $50 for their nearer tho 50-yard line, the higher. Army and Xavy met 30 times ou the gridiron before tho famous break in relations after tbo 1927 game. Army won lit of these games, Navy 12 and three were tied. Tho 1927 ame was won by tho Army, 11-9, chiefly through the erploits ot "Light-horse Harry" "Wilson.

B. Pratt, chief of Naval operations, and Allen Hoover, son. of tho president. President Hoover was unable to come. As a colorful spectacle, today's gamo outshone even previous Army- Navy clashes.

College Players Themselves Select Ail- Star Eleven for 1930 Season in Nation-Avide Poll By JUTT Central I'ress Syorts Editor Here is the. real All American lootball team, an eleven selected lot -by coaches, sports writers and ithcr observers, but by the players, hemsclves.

For tho first tiroo the of the men who actually play the game have been obtained by the jcntral Press Association for Thu tourual and the concensus of their opinions has resulted in the sclcc- iou of a real All-Amcrican foot- jail team. Two hundred captains of college teams were polled oy the Jcnlral Press Association in a na- survey. Each captain gainst or with whom he played, iach captain was asked not to select eleven players, many as he, limsclf, believed after close obser- 'fltion on the gridiron, merited men- ion as outstanding star. The response was splendid. Scores replies from every sec- ion came from captains who generously gave their aid in making fho football Captains' Own All-American a learn representative, of the jest in foot-ball this season.

403 Players Named. Four hundred and three players ircre named by the captains. This mim-ber included 01 ends, 56 tnek- liO guards, 3S coiiiors, 41 quarterbacks, 10S halfbacks and 39 fullbacks. Out of this PToat number tho eleven men receiving the most votes (each captain casting 0:10 vote for each position) Tho result was the given below: picked. All- American Frank Baker of Northwestern and Wesley Keslcr of Ohio State.

Tackles-- Fred Sington of Alabama and Milo Lubratovich of Wisconsin. Guards--Henry J. Wisniewski oE Fordham and Barton Koch of Baylor. Center--Mel Hein of Washington Quarterback--Frank Carideo of Notre Dame. Half-backs--Marchmont Schwartz Notre Dame and John Slither of Alabama.

Fullback--Leonard Macnlnso of Colgate. Baker, Feslcr. Siugton, Luhrato- vieli, Koch, Carideo and Macaluso led their nearest rivals by several votes. Wisniewski was just one above Bert Mefzger of Notre Dame and Wade Woodworth of Northwestern. Mel Hein just uosed out Ben Ticknor of Ilarvard.

Schwartz received one vote more than Ernie Pinckort of Southern California. An All-Star Eleven. Tho Captains' Own All-Amcrican actually an Ali-Stnr eleven. Each man named by the leaders is a great player. Wesley Fesler of Ohio State, this asou was a football team in himself.

He not only played brilliantly at ptnrrcd as a back and also handled quarterback duties. Northwestern's Frank- Baker, snagged passes like an Oosterbaan, and was as fleet as a pony halfback. He could and did grab pass after pass on the gallop. At tackle are Fred 'Sington and 'ast he used his great strength to oalter Baylor's foes all season ionry (Pete) Wisnicwski was rated by tho captains the best" man of Ford'kam's great line and that iu- the brilliant center, Siano. At center is Mel Hein, keystone Washington State's unbeatable ino attack.

His selection was virtually Alabama's 'brilliant sophomore, John (Flash) Slither and Marchy Schwartz of Notre Dame are the lalfbacks and deservedly so.

This announcement came from Coach Aureal Imfeld this morning, concerning tho local's tussle with Elmo A. C. at Cincinnati Sunday afternoon. "It isn't a question of who is going to Coach Imfeld said.

will enter tho game and fight as hard as possible to keep the scors low. Wo realize that we aro stacking up against what probably is the strongest team in Cincinnati and are holding little or no hopes of victory." Coach Imfeld backed up this statement by announcing that another of his regulars has been added to the injured list. The latest addition is "Bill" Linthicum, regular forward, who sustained sprained wrist in tho shop league Wednesday night. With this injury to Linthicum, tho total umber of regulars on the shelf has mounted to three. Ruppert is out with an injured eye, while Weckeman is flown with the flu.

Forced to play without half of his regulars, Coach Imfeld stated this morning that ho would start Ralph Flaimery at center, Bud Shroufe and Rupp at guards and Arn Kelly and Joe Kiep at forwards. This combination has not practiced together and when they trot onto the floor Sunday afternoon it will be their first time together. Quite a number of local fans plan to follow the team, despite the "jinx" which seems to be trailing along after llic team.

"While tbo game was slow at times, the teams spurted on several occasions and showed the fans somo real basketball. Kirn, Hamilton center, was high point uiaii for both teams, chalking up eight points on four heaves from tho field. Cedarville's goal tossers were so closely guarded at all times that they could acquire only tlirco baskets from tho field and no man made more than one of- these.

Following are tho lineups and summaries: champion of the world.

The fistic pride of the south, a 2 to 1 favorite before the battle in the Chicago stadium last night, left no doubt ns to his superiority. He won the, unanimous decision of Referee Ed Pimly and the judges. Stribling was favored to win by a knockout, probably because of his Miio LulS two eUmination of rft young ge lines to shreds.

2 Grathwohl Lands Victory Against Gordon In Bout -BEA" llEIt'J'JIAX While the bugs in New York and Chicago Friday night watching the fistiu big shots push each other around, Hamilton fight fans were watching a pretty good fight card Of course there were no Striblings or Buttalinos in the ring at tho Armory, but there were plenty of boys in there willing to mix it up and that, dear readers, is what the public likes. The main event was an eight- round go between Sailor Cratliwohl of Hamilton, and Jimmy Gordon of Middlctown. Ijou Bauman, referee, said this match was to decide the championship of Butler county, whatever that is. Anyway, wo felt forced to give the Sailor the nod because he unquestionably had the best of tho milling. No less than umpteen times he landed his left flush on Gordon's rugged chin, only to have thai worthy shrug it off and keep borin; And, while we still maintain Sailor was the better boxer, Gordon carried the fight to him at all limes and absorbed a lot of punishment in order to put a few blows in the Gob's midriff.

A darn good fight from the standpoint of the fans. Lewis Knocked Out .1 In the first round of their cchcd- ilcd six-round semi-final bout, Billy riffin knocked out Jack Lewis. F. -Ptsj Totals 2 Referee--Hutchison. Scorer ninston.

After pasting Lewis with couple of hard rights and lefts, enough to make him he caught him flush on the jaw with a steaming right hook and stiffened Lewis ou the ropes.

Referee Bauman stopped the fight while Lewis was still on his feet but latter was unconscious. It was five minutes before he came to and when examined by a doctor in the dressing room later on, it developed Lewis had a broken rib, an old injury, that was also bothering him. Tho other six-round setto was topped in tho final round after one minute and 40 seconds of fighting when Buddy Hurley was so weak he was unable to arise from the canvass. Young Lorton, a rugged hoy with little or no boxing ability, won the decision hut ho was hfnrly as tired as was Hurley, who took about six or seven counts of nine in order to rest up. This was probably the ivorst bout of the evening.

Fair Crowd Out Fritz Hieb, nephew of "Happy" Hicb, one-time idol of Hamilton fans, mado his professional debut last night and fought draw with Art Joskin. Ho reminded us somewhat of "Happy" in tho ring and looks ns though ho will turn out to be just as tough. Tho other four-round bout was corker. Bobby Hinkle won the decision over Doyal Gardner hut it was due only to his experience as Gardner was' fighting first professional bout. This boy Gardner, if ho gets the proper handling, should turn out to 'bo pretty iiimjli of scrapper.
