The All-American team of 1920 repre
sents a greater breadth of ability on the
part of every one of its members than
any team ever before selected.
With the first team, we put into the
hands of that remarkable little field gen
eral. Lourie, Princeton, all the weapons
of attack we can possibly give him by
the use of Way, Penn State, and Stinch
eomb, Ohio State, as half hacks, and the
late George Oipp, Notre Dame, the great
est back field man the country bad in
the past season, as full back.
We put in front of Lourie a line of
supreme power—a line upon which we
can count three remarkable men for

PLAYER* HAVE
MORE WORK.
The startling development of the game
has put additional requirements on each
Individual position, and this condition;
has reached a limit today undreamed of
by tne general rank anu fl.e. and only
appreciated by the coaches and expert!
througiiout the country. 1 eraaps it is
onlr fair to gi'e some idea of this,
so that the average layman may nderf
ttand waat it means to by an all-A men- j
can man today. „
an individual man in position
as an example of this, th t- Is not better
Illustration than Stanley Keck, the,
Princeton tackle. Here was_ a tackle
who, iu his two big games, showed the
following qualifications: In the first
place he has the u -ual earmarks of a ;
strong player in the position, uame.y. j
abiutv to iiandle himself well, to break,
through, to tackle, to >ad a line buck
or a play that w* nt between the ta* Lie
and guard, to aid an end, and sometimes
to beat him iu getting down tue field
under kicks. Then, in addition. Kecs
hurried the forward passer as well as
the kicker: he was a long-distance place-;
meat kicker, a goal kicker of accuracy
and finally, with one or two compara
tively live men in his back fled he
helped bear their burden in a measure
where they were forced to come up
Against weight and power. One added
element was that of shiftiness, his a lillt.-
to move on defense fr..:n one scle or
the line to the other, according ns un
balanced lines required a greater power
to meet the charge.
NO PEACE EARNED
VITHOET STRUGGLE.
From this it is easy to see that few
of the positions on the all-Amencaa
team this year were made without
Struggle. But, inspite of the sac >
competition for almost every posit.oa vas
keen up to the end of the season. it was
possible to reach a final and oonclustv.
decision, which is offered herewith.
The quarter back position goes, att r
much consideration, to Lourie of 1 rlnce
ton. because, ns a climax to the r<st
of his work, his generalship not only in
former games but in ms final contest
for the season, that with ) ale, was al
most uncanny In accuracy in disclob-
Ing everv weak point <>? bis opponents.
In all other points, McMillin (Centre) and
Boynton (Williams) were quite on par
with him. Iu fact, McMillin upheld in a
Li-h degree the wonderful reputation
Ue“ made last year, and both he and
Boynton are exceptional assets to r.ny
the back fi“ld, Glpp of Notre I'amc
gets the first place, on account of bis
versatility and power, able as he wa*
to punt, drop kick, forward pass run
tackle-iu fact, do anything that any
back field mar could ever be requ.re i
ro do, and do it in a well-nigh superla
tive fashion. He. drop-kicked ua uis
freshman team sixty-two yards. When
a man who has been taken off with i
badlv injured shoulder can go in on a
pinch and carry the ball over tae goal
line to get his team an absolutely neces
sary touchdown, something of the m—n a
power can well be understood.
BICKEYE STAR
FAST BOWS HELD.
Sttucheomb of Ohio State, who com
pletes the trio, is the fastest nuin down
under a forward pass on the gridiron
today. Hia speed, together with tae
passing of Workman, pulled his team
out pf a hole in the Wisconsin game in
the last minute ol play, and be repeated
this on othex occusioas. Had btlncli
comb been an ordinary man, although
fairly fast, ho would not have beeu able
to get away with thee plays, for the
defense was prepared for them, saw them
coming, and yet was deceived in both
eases on account of this peculiar burst
of speed which Stineheomb is able to
put on. Stineheomb l-s also a quarter
back cf note and ba-‘k field runner sec
ond to none, but it is just th::t asset of
speed which makes it necessary to have
him.
On the present schedule t.'.e ranking
oPteams is impossible. But there is one
quality that goes for a great flea*. and
that is the ability to rise to tne occa
sion when necessary, and when this test
is applied we find that the outstandlrg
teams were Piiuceton. Harvard, Notre
D-nne Pittsburgh, Peun t'tite, Califor
nia Virginia Military Institute, Boston
and Ohio State. They all came through
and would be the ones selected to carry
a game anywhere.
Their methods differed largely. Prince
ton had the greatest variety and made
the largest use of generalship. Ohio
Str.te took the greatest advantage of the
modern rules. California ran up ihe
largest scores. Harvard ami Pittsburgh
were most cautious and calculating. Bos
ton. Notre Dame and Virginia Military
Institute were most aggressive.—Copy

Butler Five Gathers
Speed for Clash With
Purdue Quint Friday
Coach Pat Page, Butler basket mentor,
is daily increasing the. pace of his hard
fighting net squad in preparation for the
rrueial and all-important contest with
Purdue Friday. The game is to be played
at Lafayette.
The Technical High School five worked
out with the. Pagemen yesterday after
noon at the Butler gym. and It is proba
hie that one of the other local high
school quintets will do the same before
Page completes his practice work for the
coming battle.
Chances of a Butler victory against
their strong Big Ten opponents received
somewhat of a setback yesterday when
It whs learned that Phil White, flooi
guard, was suffering from an infected
foot and might possibly be out of the
line-up Friday.
However, Page has a number of likely
substitutes who have been pushing the
regulars hard, particularly in the guard
department, anil in the event that White
is unable to start his place will be ably
filled by one of these men and the Blue
and White, machine will lose little of its
power. With the exception of White all
members of the regular squad are in
great condition and eager for a crack at
the strong Lafayette aggregation.

New Orleans, in an eight-round match
last night, but the local boxer was forced

NEW YORK. Dec. 15.—lack Dempsey
has the fistic fans in the midst of a
eateh-as-catch-can guessing contest to
day.
Jsck is still the world’s hosing cham
pion and SIOO,OOO richer as a result of
his twelve round knockout victory over
Bill Brennan last night. He is also the
latest thing in puzzles.
The showing of the champion against
Brennan was a Mg surprise. When they
met before Dempsey won in six rounds.
Last night Brennan stood up twice ns
long and gave the champion a hammer
and tongs sort of fight that won the
plaudits of some 13.000 fight fans away
from the tltleholder.
What the fight fan wants to know Is:
“How come?"
CHAMP NEHVOIIS
BEFORE. BOLT.
Jack Kearns, manager of the cham
pion, said after the bout that Dempsey
was a bit too finely drawn. He looked
It, at that, and he was nervous as a
race horse while he posed with Brennan
for the camera men. Ills legs were
atremble as he stood facing the Chi
cagoan. and ha did not look like the
same old Dempsey.
Throughout the twelve rounds It ap
peared to some at the ringside tri u
ilempsey failed to tako advantage o
openings Some whispered that maybe
he was busy making a good movie of
the bout Tile pictures will lie worth
a lot of money In New York State. The
average man who saw the fight, however
Is willing to admit today that Brennai
gave tho champion the battle of his
young life nnd that Dempsey did a big
uight s work in knocking him out
At times Dempsey showed a flash of
the form he displayed against Fulton.
Willard and other opponents lie Would
lash out with a right or a left shooting

nnd rocking Brennan with the force ot
It. Yet lie wasn’t judging dlstanco as
of ol 1 aril Brennan's head kept swing
ing from side to side In a manner that;
made him an awkward target.
At close range, however, Dempsey
pummeled the ChimjJoun unmercifully
and there were times when It seemed
that he surely must go down. At jio
time during the fight was Dempsey in
distress, in the tenth round Dempse. >

Wabash Scores Win Over
Merchants in Thrilling
Scrimmage on ‘Y’ Floor
Coach Pete Vaughan's bunch of Wa-j
bash basket tossers fought the battle of
battles to trounce the Merchants Heat
and Light quintette on the Y. M. C. A. j
court last night, 23 to 21.
The Wabash “kids’’ mixed it against
great odds Inst night, but they mixed i
well and deserve more credit than th*
score gives them for downing a line-up
Including such men as Homer Stone
braker and Francis Bacon, mainstays of:
the original Wabash Wonder Five, and
Taylor, former Detroit Rayl star.
The teams swapped baskets evenly In
the first half. Wabash Sf-oring first, and
the first twenty minutes of lightning- .
like going ended w ith the teams tied at !
8 all.
The Merchants rallied early in the sec- j
ond half and it looked as though they .
would get away for a id* total, but they
we-e stopped with two baskets and a
foul goal, and Wabash garabilel up to
the lead. The teams tied at 20 points
in this session aud prospects of an over- i
t'.ms quarrel were bright until “Cat"
Adams handed Wabash u field goal and j
Goldsberry registered from the foul line. :
Stonebrnker scored the twenty-first Mer
chant point.
Almost every man on the floor had a
chance to do some sort of feature work
during the game, but the outstanding
playgrs were Goldsberry and Adams for
the winners, and Stonebrakor, Bacon and ‘
“Hank" Stevens for the losers. The two 1
former Wubnsh men were the real head
liners, but Stevens must be given credit
for his wonderful tight and the fact that
he did much to keep the Merchants in
the running In the second period with
two angled distance shots.
The big thing In the contest was the
comparison between the famous Rtone
braker and the coming Goldsberry, for
mer and present stars, respectively, of
the Wabash team. Some who had not
seen “Stouey” perform for a year or two
and who saw ’’Goldie” piny agnlnst the
Em-Roes last week, came out of the Y.
M. C. A. gym calling it a draw between
the youngster and the veteran, but last
night’s story was told in a different tone.
Goldsberry is a comer, and this is Lis
first year of college tmsfet-bnll, but he
will have to branch out a lot to class
with Stonebraker when the latter was at
his best.
Last night saw the vet out Jump the
eolt at the pivot, position nnd out-score
him by n margin of five points, but
“Goldie" was not outfought nnd it took
careful guarding to keep him away from
the basket.
of n fifty-foot fall In order to see their
team perform. The crowded condition
of the Y. M. C. A. Saturday makes one
thing evident—high school basket ball
has expanded in i nis : cit.v until it is only
a matter of time before new playing
floors must be secured for the contests.
It Is safe to predict that next year will
see Tomlinson Hull pressed Into service
every week, and it is wholly probable
that even some games may be staged
there this scuson.
It is regrettable that none of the local
high schools has games carded with An
derson this year. The up .Staters this
season appear to have one of the strong
est combinations ever turned out by n
Iloosier high school and n game to be
played in Indianapolis w r ith one of the
local high schools would he a rare treat
to basket followers of this city. Just why
if. Is that the local schools have Infor
mally broken off relations with Anderson
is not very clear to local fans and it
seems that the differences are such ns
could be patched up in time to bring the
Anderson clan down here for a contest
this season. Bocal critics who have seen
Coach Staggs’ machine in action this year
bring glowing reports of the prowess of
the up-State warriors and lament the fact
that they are not to display their wares
in this city.
HARTFORD CITY, Ind.. Dec. 15.—The
Hartford City High School basket-ball
team faces two hard games this week.
The Pendleton five will play here Fri
day evening and the Eogansport High
School on Saturday night. Considerable
interest centers in the Hartford City-
Bogmwport game because of the fact that
’Homerk Stonehreaker, who coached the
Hartford City team last year, is now
mentor the Logausport aggregation.

Dempsey still has youth on Ills side.
He Is at the crest of his manhood, and
Ills showing last night should not be

vanced in defense of the champion.
For one thing. Jack had but one fight

defeated Willard, and the moment he
stepped Into the ring with Brennan And
Ml-ke failed to furnish him with better
than pasteboard opposition.
Another thing: ill; had ills t'tle to

Lastly, this Brennan is one of the linrd

Milburn Saylor Punch
Ended It, Writes Tad;
Jack Badly Off Form
Ity TAD,
Famous Cartoonist and Sports Writer.
NEW YORK, Dec. 15.—The rabbit
punch ended Bill Brennan’s chance for
the heavyweight title last night In tho
twelfth round of his bout at Madison
Sqtinre Garden with Jack Dempsey.
The punch that is dreaded by nil flght
•t*. barred In Australian rings and made
famous year* ago bv Milburn Suylor of
Indianapolis, ts the one that Jack Demp
sey usisl on the stout-hearted Brennan.
It wit* a see saw battle In which blood
flowed freely and tlie champion was man
handled quite A lilt.
The end came after ono minute and
fifteen second* of fighting In the twelfth
round. Dempsey, cut and bleeding low
ered bis henl nnd waded into the tired
Brennan. There was a mix-up irt the
center of the ring. They breke and
Dempsey ml*.sod a long left swing for
Bill’s head.
Brennan then started a right hand
swing for the champion's Jaw, but Just
ns It got half way Jack dug a left into
(he pit of the Windy City fighter's stom
ach. Brennan folded up like an accord
ion, his head almost touching his knee*.
Dempsey waited for only a fraction of a
second Raising his right he brought it
down like a trip-hammer on the back of
Brennan’s neck. It wus tiio old rabbit
punch.
Brennan fei! to the floor slowly At
the count of ten be got up nud fell on
the roi*‘s tn n neutral corner.
No heavyweight champion in the his
tory of the ring had the close call that
Dempsey had lust night. Overtrained,
nervous and off his g me altogether, the
champion put np a very poor fight. In’the
opinion of the writer.

Senior League Men
Sign New Agreement
and Close Meeting
Heydler’s Term of Office Ex
tended and Salary Boosted
—Herzog Gets Hearing.
NEW YORK, Dec. 15.—With the new’
national baseball agreement duly ratified
the magnates of the National League (
were ready to conclude their annual i
winter meeting at the Waldorf today, !
winding up routine odds and cuds.
The National Leaguers will remain over |
until Saturday, however, when they will
gef together with the American League
clubowners for a joint powwow. Thei
American League will meet here Friday j
aud i3 expected to set its seal of approval j
on the new agreement.
In addition to extending President
Heydler's term of office for ihree years
and raising his salary to $15,000. the
owners of the senior league recommended
that spltbail pitchers who have been
using the moist delivery be permitted
to continue until they outlive their Use
fulness. Bill Doak of St. Louis made an
appeal on behalf of the fog ball pitchers.
Charles Herzog, who has asked for
vindication nnont charges made against
him by Rube Benton, was to get his hear
ing at today’s session of the old league.
There wus little of importance left on the
slate aside from business legislation to
day, and it was expected that the owners
would get time to talk trades and sales
of players.
There was much talk of trades between
the various National League clubs yester
day, but not a single deal was made. Ix
was announced that Connie Mack and
Branch Rickey had agreed upon tentative
I lans for a series of exhibition games
iu the South, between the Philadelphia
Athletics and the St. Louis Cardinals.
The 1920 season, President Heydler.
said, proved the most successful in the
history of the National League, the paid
attendance being more than 1,000.000 in
excess of the previous season. During
the season the clubs used 27.924 baseballs,
an Increase over 1919 of 10,248. This In
crease was due mainly to the enforcement
of the new pitching rules, said Heydler.
A constitutional amendment was adopt
ed which provides that when waivers are
asked on players the waivers may be
withdrawn. Under the present rule when
waivers are asked and a club puts in 8
claim for the player the transfer must
be consummated.
NEW YORK, Deo. 15. —The National
Assentation of Professional Baseball
Leagues, born Monday as the successor
of the New Internationa! League, ceased
to exist Tuesday when the club owners
voted to return to the old name. The
circuit, therefore, will continue as the
New International League. It was the
opinion of the club owners that the new
name would cause too many complica
tions.
John Conway Toole, who has been at
torney for the National League since 1911,
was formally notified of his election as
president. Toole intimated in an address
to the owners thnt, while he was pleased
at his unanimous election, the terms were
not exactly satisfactory. After consulta
tion It was decided to make his term ns
president five years at a salary of SIO,OOO
a year.
The schedule for 1921 wilt consist of
168 games, to be played between April
20 aud Hept. 27. The schedule commit
tee will meet la New York either Feb.
14 or 27. *
Anew plan of meeting tho league ex
penses was adopted. This provides for
u tux on each club of two cents on each
admission. By this arrangement each
club will contribute to the expenses of
the league its share in proportion to its
total attendance.

HERO WORSHIP
IS PAID GIPP
Notre Dame Students and
Countless Admirers Mourn
Death of Grid Star.
—i
SOUTn BEND, Ind., Dec. 15. —Notre
Dame, with a bowed head and heavy
heart, bid a silent farewell to George
"Gipp today. All classes were suspended;
all flags were at half staff.
Through yesterday afternoon and far
into the nlf-ht a stream of fellow stu
dents, teammates and football fans filed
past the silent gridiron hero as he lay
in state In the parlor of a local under
taker.
One glance at Gipp, as the body lay In
a large gray coffin banked with flowers,
proved to them that their fallen hero
had fought his last fight as grimly as
ever he did on the gridiron. His wasted
form, his emaciated features and the
expression of determination that lin
gered about his mouth left no doubt in
fh<*ir minds that he had fought a hard
fight.
It was hard for them to realize, how-'
ever, that this was the superman who,
less than a month ago, was thrilling
thousands by his speed and cleverness on
the football field.
Shortly before his death, Gipp em
braced the Catholic faith and a requiem
high mass was celebrated for him at
Sacred Heart church at 8:30 o’clock this
morning. At 10 o’clock a silent proces
sion of several hundred friends and stu
dents formed in front of the undertakers
and the solemn procession moved slowly
through to the city to the New York
Central depot. The funeral party there
entrained for Laurium, Mich., his for
mer home, via Chicago and Calumet,
Mich. Funeral services will be held in
Laurium Thursday morning.
Practically all the first string men of
the Notre Dame squad accompanied the
i cortege.
Telegrams of sympathy from every
part of the United States poured Into
the city Tuesday to Mrs. Matthey Gipp.
! who lias been quartered at the home of
a friend of her deceased 6on.
