On The Journal's 1927 All-City eleven. Central High places six players three in the backfjeld and a like number on the line. The remaining; five positions go to Knoxvllle High players-one back and four forwards. No second All-City eleven Is being picked, since the selection of Bvh would be little more than the naming of those regulars on either eleven who failed to get berths on the first team.

Second choices are appropriate only when a mythical eleven is being chosen from a number of teams. For the ends. Captain John Jett of Central and Howard Connelly of City are named. Strangely enough, both of these men started the season as guards but were shifted to wing berths where their versatility might prof more advantageous. Jett weighs 159 pounds, is fast down on punts, a good defensive man, one, of the best blockers, on either team and a fair hand at snagging passe.

Connelly numbers 175 pound in his physical sakeup and is as good a defensive man as can be found in this end of the state, or the other end either, for that matter. For a short tflme after being shifted to end, he experienced difficulty In getting adowa on punts but had completely overcome this inability before the season was far gone. His tackling in an open field is both deadly and and vhe-is a fair blocker. John Jackson and Bill Collins, both of Knoxville High, get the call for tackle positions. Jackson weighing 207 pounds, is a terror on 4 that could be wished for tn tha way of a defensive hack.

Poe is chosen largely because of his passing and punting ability. His kicks have averaged in the neighborhood ot yards all season a mighty good record for a high school And had he been favored with better snagging on the part of his teammates, much more deserving praise would have been heaped npon his passing ability. Poe also a good short-gain man on the offense. and a fine defensive man. To Burt Sims goes the fullback assignment Sims packs his 17 pounds with the speed of a lightweight and the power of a 200-pounder.

Many opposing lines have suffered from his smashing and an equal number have had their own smashing nipped in the bud by his fierce tackling while backing up the Red and Black line. Hp is adept at diagnosing plays and the best defensive man in tha. Central backfield. Also, he ia a good passer and punter, but has done little of the latter this year due to Bill Phlpps superiority in this department of play. As reserves for this eleven we nominate' Bill Phlpps, end; Red Cate, tackle and guard, Willie Daniels, halfback.

Whang Johnson, tackle and fallback, of Central and C. 3U McPherson. half-, back; Dave Taylor, guard, and Charles Lobetti. halfback and fullback, of City High. 4 Several fnen chosen here as reserves, as well as others not mentioned have their champions who will, after having teen them star in one or two games, howl as to why they were left off of the "starting" eleven.

But this selection, la based wholly npon tha showing of players daring the entire season and not in a few Bom of the men chosen have not reached the heights-of stardom attained' by a few others in individual games, but all have played smart, steady football consistently and could be depended nnpn to continue doing so were it in tha question to map out for them a strong schedule such as played this' season by either -of the schools from, which they are 4..: lege, president; Or. is. K. wayior, of Emory and Henry college, vice-president and re-elected Professor O. It.

Post, of King College, secretary-treasurer. W. O. "Chink" Lowe, of Knoxvllle, was re-elected commissioner. The conference In re-electing Mr.

Lowe, who under the constitution of the organization passes on the eligibility of all students of member ceileges to participate in athletics and acts in matters of dispute between jnembers of the conference, expressed entire satisfaction with the work of Mr. Lowe. Tighten Rules Every student In the conference who participates in inter-collegiate athletics, is required to fill and file with the commissioner a certificate of eligibility and in an effort to tighten up this requirement, a mo 'a meeting today of the University of Tennessee Athletic council. Coach Parker's present contract has only until December 1 to run, and, while no official Information la available, it is almost a certainty that a new contract will be prepared for his approval at today's meeting. Also it Is probable that Parker will accept.

The contract under which Maj. Bab Neyland. head grid coach, la worlrlnir Is understood to run until the end of the 1929 football season, while that of Major W. H. Britton.

line coach and mentor of basketball and track, doe a not expire until next spring. Routine Work Voting of footiball letters is expected to prove more or less a matter of routine work, they being but knows no superior lineman on either team. He is full of fight during every minute, of play, like a Gibraltar on the defense and nearly always capable of opening a wide gap for his backs to plunge through on. the offense. Bearden is also a fine open-field tackier and a cunning balHaawker.

-s. i Ware, 180" pounds, although having served at center all season, is moved over a notch only because of the strength It adds to this myth-leal eleven. In tact, he is slated to pee service that locality for Central next season. Ware is one of the most conscientious players -we hate ever seen, a hard man to block and equally as hard to be kept from doing a bit blocking on hla own part. Playing alongside of Bearden, he helped open holes for many of the Bobcats' most successful line plays and also held gaining by the opposition through the center to a minimum.

tral -quarterback, is selected to be helmsman of the. All-City eleven. Johnson has had the confidence of the entire Centra team all year, largely because ot his ability tn outsmart the opposition at almost every turn of the game. He handles punts cleanly and does fairly well at-returning them once they're in his grasp. Johnson has also shown himself to be a good man at sprinting the ends and a sure-shot safety man.

Ira McCoIlister, 145 pounds. Of Central, and Bill Poe. 165 pounds, of City. are. the halfbacks.

McCoIlister is, the best broken field runner on either team, it being much of a. task to upset' JilnT even after he is apparently tackled. It Is not shiftiness so much as powerful running that makes him so hard to stop, McCoIlister is the best open-field blocker on the Bobcat team and has been largely responsible for many long runs ripped off by Manager Don la Bush, while the Chicago negotiators were Presi dent William Vteck and Manasst Joe McCarthy. Trading ot Cuyler had fceen fort cast in tha tnlddla of laat eaaon when he and Bush become involved in a controversy that resulted in. the speedy outfielder ecu pyltj the bench tor most of tha National League season and during tha entire world's series.

Cuyler Objects Cuyler bads objected, -to beint placed second in the batting order, where, he contended, he seemed unable to hit witMo many points of his usual batting average. Later he was fined S50 for failure to slide into second base on a close play during an Important Series with the New York Giants. Protesting against the fine, Cuyler maintained that he had made the correct play Inasmuch as by goini into the base standing up he had prevented a possible double play. Shortly after the fine.

However, four" men lack one or two quarters of having played the specified time and the ruling' may 'be -waived in their behalf. The setting of a ate for the annual Tennessee football banquet is to come up at the meeting. It was at first planned that the banquet should be held tonight at the U. T. cafeteria.

Strong hall, but a postponement was decided upton when the varsity squad received an invitation to be banqueted by the Exchange tonight. It is probable that the annual football banquet will be held the latter part of this week. Voting on a 1928 football captain has been under way since yesterday morning and the new grid leader will probably be announced after the council meeting today. All men likely to be awarded letters are being allowed to ballot, but the votes of any not passed upon by the council will be discarded befqre ballots are totalled, iff, Gold Footballs? Ther is strong probability of this year's tetter men being given gold footballs, beflttingly engraved. Gold footballs were awarded in 1914 when Tennessee vwon the Southern championship and in 1916 when the Vols beat all opponents twith the exception of Kentucky, which eleven was played a 'scoreless tie.

In other rears sweaters have been given letter men. Numerals will also be voted members of the U. T. fresh team at the council meeting. 6PEN LUNCH ROOM Mrs, D.

Tha 1927 chajppions of the Southern Intercollegiate Athletic tion was passed suspending any student who makes a mis-statement of fact regarding his eligibility from college competition for a period of one year.

Dr. McMurray, the incoming president, spoke highly of the work of Mr. 'Lowe and declared that the conference as whole felt that his services hadbeen highly beneficial to the conference and expressed the belief that a commissioner, passing on eligibility from an entirely disinterested standpoint, was a more effective system than that of a committee composed of several members, doing the same work. The Smoky, Mountain Conference is one of the two organizations of its kind in the country employing the commissioner system. The Western Conference or Big Ten" has long used Jhe same system.

Dr. McMurray declared that the conference had met with remarkable success Jn Its first year and expressed the belief that it would flourish even more in the future. It was also decided at the students graduating from junior colleges and entering conference colleges to complete their education would be eligible for four years of athletic competition if otherwise eligible under the rules of the conference. File Protests Early AH protests, the conference decided, must be filed with the commissioner "by Wednesday, before rulings to be announced on the following Monday. At the time of filing a protest, notice must also be served on the opposing School by the protesting members.

In this way it is planned to eliminate the possibility of ruling out men late in the week before games on Saturdays. The conference is now composed of five East Tennessee colleges and Emory and Henry College of Emory, Virginia. Concord College was dropped from membership this year but all other members were represented at the meeting yesterday, when it was announced, that additional members are expected to smoke, thenn- will probably mot bejofficialy deter mined until the annual meeting of the association leaders is held at Chattanooga 9.

But Munn. claimed Lewis' later losing to Zybszko who in turn was thrown by Joe Stecher. who now lays claim to it.
