Great Brium tesenci A in LS 3. wimT grip! c-f vJr vjL4 EASY TRIUMPH Hartford City Team Falls by 37-19 Score. Opening the 1932 season in great style, the Muncie Midgets swept away the Hartford City Juniors to win an easy 37-to-19 victory on the Y. M. C.

A. gymnasium Mast night. In their initial set-to of the year, the locals displayed a brand of ball thatshould promise a comfortable season. On the heels of the Muncie-Hartford City fracas, representatives from ten Indiana cities, members of the Indiana Junior Basketball Association, will meet in the Y. M.

C. A. tonight to draw up schedules for both and "B' divisions of junior competition. The meeting will open at 7:30 p. with J.

Teams to be represented on the schedule-making body include Muncie, Anderson, Marion, Fairmount, Huntington, Kolromo, Newcastle, Frankfort, Lafayette and Indianapolis. From the Capitol City, three teams will participate. Midgets Start Late.

By virtue of their lopsided win over Hartford City, the Midgets got away to a flying start. With a bare three-point lead at the end of the first half, when the score stood 11 to 8, the localf found their stride and won going away. After the start of the second half they ran up a 22-to-8 lead before the visitors located the hoop. Behind the sniping of Lewellen, classy Midget forward, H. A.

Petti-John's proteges counted 16 points in the third stanza. Stewart, tow-headed center for the losers, -looked best, hitting four times from the field. The summary: HARTFORD CITY MIDGETS, F. F. T.i G.

PPy The name of Harry Stuhldreher, former Notre Dame quarterback, and now head football coach at Villanova, today entered discussions as a probable successor to Maj.

Frank Cava- naugh as head coach at Fordham University. It is understood Stuhldreher has been approached by Fordham officials. Jimmy Crowley, head coach at Michigan State and one of the famous "Four Horsemen" backfield at South Bend with Stuhldreher, previously was reported to have the inside track on the job but it is believed he has decided to stay at East Lansing, where he is well liked and successful.

KOKOMO DEFEATED. FORT WAYNE, Ind, Dec. 7. U.R) Fort Wayne defeated Kokomo, 22 to 20. in a National Basketball League game last night.

One overtime period was needed to determine the winner. REQUEST APPROVAL OF TITLE CONTEST INDIANAPOLIS, Dec. 7. (P The Indiana State Athletic commission has seized the National Boxing Association to recognize a proposed bout between Sammy (Kid) Slaughter, Terre Haute, and Gorilla Jones of Akron, as being for the United States middleweight championship. Both are Negroes.

The members of the national boxing body have been asked to vote on the proposal, it was learned here today. James I. Veach, secretary of the Indiana commission, said that, if approved, the bout likely will be held in Indianapolis. Slaughter, a protege of Bud Taylor, former batamweight star, has come up from the ranks in the last year. Jones formerly was recognized by the N.

B. A. as middleweight. Grcen Place Three. BY GEORGE KIRKSEY.

CHICAGO, Dec. 7 (U.R) The best eleven football players in the land are named today by the United Press. They represent the pick of the National Professional League, the fastest football circuit in operation. Three players each from Green Bay and Portsmouth, two each from the New York Giants and Chicago Bears and one from the Chicago Cardinals are named on the first team, which follows: Ponition. plaver.

Halfback. Arnold Herber. Green Bay, St. College. Halfback.

Roy Lumpkin. Portsmouth, Georgia Tech. Fullback. Bronko Nagurski, Chicago Bears. Minnesota.

Potsy Claris, Portsmouth coach, Ralph Jones. Chicago Bears' coach, and Rocky Wolfe, attache of the Chicago Bears and Cardinals who probably has seen more pro games this season than any other coach, critic or sports writer, aided in selecting the all-pro team. Clark Great General. The all-pro backfield combines four of the greatest football players operating on any gridiron. Earl Dutch) Clark, Portsmouth quarterback, is one of the keenest field generals who ever called a signal.

When his team's plays don't work Clark makes up his own plays. He is a brilliant passer and runner and a capable kicker. Arnold Herber of Green Bay is another all around sta kicker, passer, runner; blocker and defensive player. His passing and running have been outstandings in Green Bay's offensive in every game. Roy Lumpkin of Portsmouth is the league's greatest blocker and defensive fullback.

Lumpkin is also a good plunger and passer. Bronko Nagurski is is a terrific plunging back, a great defensive player and devastating blocker. With Lumpkin and Nagurski to plunge through ahead of them, Clark and Herber would be almost impossible to stop. The all-pro line has two big powerful ends, a pair of giant tackles, two fast, aggressive guards and a roving center with uncanny ability to diagnose plays before the ball is snapped. Flaherty of the New York Giants catches a football like a bastball, and is almost impossible to cover.

Nash's forte is defensive play. Hubbard, weighing 225, and Grant, weighing 225, are impregnable on defense, and can open a hole in the side of a locomotive if necessary. Emerson, the little Portsmouth terror, has played 60 minutes of every game this year, and has never been blocked out of play. Carlson is another defensive terror. Moynihan Best Lineman.

But the greatest all-round lineman in the league is Tim Moynihan, playing his first year with the Chicago Cardinals. Roving up and down the line, Moynihan perhaps made more tackles than any other two players. The second team selection follows: Position, player, team. End. Dilweg.
