It combines the fiery zeal of the south with the gridiron experience of the east, the flashiness of the far western game and the solid defensive factors that play so vital a part in the success of Big Ten football. It is, in short as well as in theory, the kind of aggregation that the coaches dream about, with the "shock troops" of the second and third teams, completing the All-American squad of 33, all plenty tjivt-s un tpaiK.s. ijuiiu, agamsi sucn stalwart opposition as Michigan, gained more ground than all opposing ball carriers combined. Feathers did not reach his peak until November but the Tennessee star ran wild down the stretch after being held in check by Duke, Purvis as polished an all-around performer as the Big Ten possessed, had an offday against Minnesota but otherwise compiled an extraordinary ground gaining record. Mikulak, Oregon's powerhouse, probably has no equal as a defensive fullback, although Sauer of Ne braska left nothing to be desired in his ability to back up the line.

Mary's Mike Mikulak, Oregon Fullback Ralph Kercheval, Kentucky Minneapolis (P) Just a shy little "iron man" is Pug Lund, Minnesota's All-American football star-but his slanting thrusts on the gridiron have gained him, personally, more yardage from scrimmage than the combined total of seven major opponents! The 175-pound Gopher halfback has spared nobody least of all himselfas he has picked his way thru the centers and off the tackles of eight tough elevens South Dakota State, Indiana, Purdue, Pittsburgh, Iowa, Northwestern, Michigan and Wisconsin. Those vicious drives through the middle and his favorite gallop off tackle have netted the towheaded stick of dynamite 682 yards from scrimmage against a total of 639 for all those eight teams! It took Lund 137 trips to pile up that mileage, giving him an average of five yards per carry. Just to further the right to be called an "iron man," Lund has played, in those games, 460 out of a possible 430 minutes. He got a 10-minute respite when playing Iowa and another "tenner" against South Dakota state. good enough to make the "regulars" worry about their jobs.

Four Stand-Outs Few of the men selected for the first team hold their high rank by anything but the closest sort of margin. It was not difficult to point the All-American finger at such stalwarts as Fred Crawford of Duke, greatest of the South's linemen and the "key" player of an unbeaten team; Chuck Bernard, defensive genius and center of Michigan's Big Ten champions, or so consistently brilliant a pair of backs as "Pug" Lund of Minnesota and Jack Buck ler of West Point. Yet even these players were not without rivals and the battle for positions otherwise was marked by the hottest kind of argument. There has been less of the so-called All-American ballyhoo this year than at any time in the past half dozen seasons. Publicity men seem to have joined the coaches in catching the spirit and emphasis of team play.

Thus a high scoring back one Saturday might be doing the blocking for a team-mate the following week and consequently complicated the work of the experts. A team like Princeton, undefeated, untied and not even scored upon until next to its last game of the season, demonstrated how a place at the peak could be gained without any All-American thunder echoing nearby. The dominant strength of the middle west looms conspicuously in the All American picture, as well as the teams records, despite the downfall of that erstwhile pace -set ter, Notre Dame. Held scoreless in six out of eight games to the complete astonishment of one and all who wondered at this waste of man power, the fighting Irish failed to produce an All-American player for the first time in five years. This is a striking contrast to Notre Dame's record of putting no less than nine players on the first teams of the last four seasons.

The Big Ten and Big Six, however, combine to collect four of the eleven All- American position. Three from the Pacific Coast, two each from the South and East complete the roster. The entire squad of 33 numbers 10 from the Far West, nine from the middle west, eight from the east and six from the south. Three Fine Backfield Since it is the most interesting as well as the most controversial feature of the situation, analysis of the backfield calls for prompt treatment, if not a defense. Certainly no fault can be found with a backfield consisting of "Cotton" Warburton of Southern California at quarterback and George Henry Sauer, 195-pound Nebraska fullback, in combination with Lund and Buckler.

The difficulty is in convincing a large and loud majority that it has qualities superior to the second team quartet, composed of Paul Johnson of Army, Sabol, North Carolina State; Meier, Nebraska; Sweat, Illinois Wesleyan; Sports Shorts By Walt Grinolt In addition "the Pugger" has Nelson, Mississippi; Hajek, Northwestern; Maples.

Southern California; Fay, Michigan; commercial loop, it has been revealed. St.

Cloud certainly has enough talent for two leagues and an effort will be made to secure backing for these teams. With two leagues this city could furnish a lot of booster teams for the tournament. The Chicago Bears have clinched at least a share of the football laurels for. the western division of the National Professional Football league and need only a tie in one of their two remaining games in order to win the right to oppose the New York Giants for the league cham The 1933 Associated Press All-American football teams are an picked up tremendous yardage in returning kickoffs and punt returns. He did all the Minnesota passing, defensive qualities mark the first team selections, rangy Paul Geisler of Centenary and chunky Joe Sklad-any of Pittsburgh's powerful Panthers.

Not much is heard of Cen tenary outside of the south but this little Louisiana team has long been a thorn in the side of conference teams and compiled an amazing two-year record in which Geisler's all around play has been the outstanding feature. To Skladany likewise belongs much of the credit for Pitt's solid achievements. Joe has had his name in the headlines for spectacular pass catching, as Army will testify, but his forte is smashing interference and not doing the kind of downfleld work that discourages rival safety men. Bill Smith of Washington and Ted Petroskey of Michigan came close to capturing the flanking jobs because of their versatility. Besides doing all that is required of a great end, Smith booted a number of vital field goals for the Huskies, beating Stanford with two of them, while Pe-toskey lugged the ball on end eround plays when Michigan's backs needed help.

They Sound Alike With Crawford, Corbus and Bernard all dominant in their line positions, all "key" men on teams that achieved fine records, the remaining places go to a pair of stalwarts with curiously similar names Schamme! of Iowa at guard and Schwammel of Oregon State at tackle. Francis (Zud) Schammel gained high praise as the Big Ten's outstanding guard, a 215-pound terror on offense as well as defense. Equally tall and big Adolphe John Schwammel, outstanding tackle of the Pacific Coast conference, showed the east as well as the west what he could do in big league company. This completes the main picture State game and later in the Iowa battle. He played 460 minutes of a possible 480 this year, Named Minnesota's captain for 1934, Lund should be a big influence over the team.

He is popular with his mates and backfield men and linemen have said that they played with more confidence with Lund on the field than any other man. He does all of the kicking, returning of punts, passing and ran the ball a majority of the times this season. There were other big cogs in the Gopher machine this year, including Larson and Oen, who were deserving of mention and it was believed that at least one would be placed on the second eleven. There is a big field to pick from and each section has its outstanding stars. nounced in this issue of The Times-Journal and hold unusual interest kicking, about half the ball lugging, ran back all punts and practically every kickoff.

Larson and Roy Oen, end and center respectively, are given honorable mention. Lund was not to be denied the honor and, with another year of competition, should even have a better season in 1934, barring injuries. The Associated Press teams, named by Alan Gould, sports editor, are highly regarded the country over and are as nearly "official" as any selections made. The Big Ten, where some of the toughest football in the country is played, rates three men this year, Lund of Mijjnesota, Charles Bernard of Michigan and Francis Schammel of Iowa. An interesting story as to Lund's ability was unearthed today with the announcement of the All- Ameri can.

Lund has gained more yards from scrimmage this season than all of the teams combined that he has opposed.

Warburton, a 147-pound package cf momentum that proved one of the hardest to handle all year, can thank the Southern California system for the edge he gains over Army's more versatile Johnson. The Trojan offense features the alternation of crack ball-carrying quarter backs, whereas in West Point'3 scheme of attack Johnson has a full time job of running the team. Even so, there is little to choose between them.
