Nevertheless he will have to stand -still while the Amateur Athietic Union pins the James E. Sullivan Memorial Medal on him for being the “out- | standing amateur athlete of 1931.” Bobby Jones won this award in ' 1930, the first year it was intro- duced as a recognition of conspicu- bus athletic activity, sportsmanship and character. Chivalry almsost prevailed in the past year's contest, for Helens Madison, the world's greatest wo- man swimmer, was within two points of tying Berlinger and Helen ‘Wills Moody, the world’s greatest woman tennis player, placed third | on a list of 10 figuring in the A. A. U’s final ballot. # 1 may be wrong in presuming that a number of my friends of the A. A. U. felt like keeping the award “in the family,” but the re- sults of the balloting, with Berlin- ger, Madison and Moody at the top, come as a distinct surarise. I find much mention of Berlin- ger's activities in South Africa dur- ing the year but what about the j' all-around activities, sportsmanship and example furnished right at fiome by Harvard's Barry Wood? For sheer = competitive achieve- ment, what amateur athlete could compare with Ellsworth Vinesover the year's course? For come-back glamour and the old fighting spirit, where was there an accomplish- ment to surpass that of Francis Ouimet? » Protest Of course we picked Oulmet Wood and Vines as our trio of nominations in the James E. Sul- livan Memorial contest. This car- ries with it the privilege of making a squawk. What we can't figure out is just | how these three can finish so far behind the parade in a nationally representative poll, Ouimet tying with Clarence DeMar for fourth place, Wood placing sixth and| oVines eighth. Clarence DeMar is a grand old man, plodding along in his forties just for the joy of marathon run- ning, but I can’t understand where he got all those votes unless it was on a mileage basis. In the Associated Press national poll among sports experts as to the outstanding individual achievement of the year, the three leading ama- teurs were Vines, Ouimet and Mad- ison. Maybe Dan Ferris can shedsome light on the mysteries of the A. A. U. poll. I'll ask him. Ancther Unsung Back “The experts overlooked one of the best backs I have ever seen iwhen they failed to take much 'nofine of Poppelman of Maryland” Ray Van Orman, coach at Johns !Hopkms university, told me during the holiday fanfests in New York. “Poppelman ran wild in a num- ber of big games and looked like & wonder to me. Maryland, as a team, did not get the credit it deserved for enjoying a #very fine season, losing only to Vanderbilt and tying Kentucky.” ———-—e——— Inhabitants of Munich drink more milk per capita than any other city in Germany.
