GAELS' ACE BACK FIRST CHOICE ON AP'S ALL - COAST SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 6—St Mary's, Southern California, Wash- ington and the University of Califor nia at Los Angeles all placed two men on the 1945 Associated Pre: All-Pacific Coast football var: team, released today. One player each from hington State, Oregon ' and California rounded out the 21st annual mythical first eleven Herman Wedeme, sensational all-around performer who will lead St. Mary's against Oklahoma A and M in the Sugar Bowl, and Southern California’s Ten Tannehill, who will be sien against Alabama in the R Bowl, were popular backfield choices. Guards Alf Hemstad, Washington, and Al Sparlis, ULCA, received the heaviest voting among the linemen AP 1945 first team: End—Jim Callanan, Southern Cal- ifornia End—Ed Ryan, St. Mar Taekle—Wendell Beard, California Tackle—Rod Giske, Wash.

COLUMBUS, O., Dec. 6-Inflation must be here . . . first the Southern Association moved up a class, the double-A leagues threaten to make it a triple-A ard now the Pacific Coest league has decided to become a third major circuit — until the major league meeting next k, at leact . . . Ony logical reason for these changes that we have heard advanc- ed is the claim that the South should stand on even terms with the East (International League), the Midwest (American Association) and the Pacific Coast . . . And does anyohe want to bet that the Coast league wouldn’t withdraw its bid for big league status if it gets that $15,000 draft price it has been after for a couple of years? . Might be settled for even less than that. Some smart baseballers claim it takes more than four million attendance to make a big league go, while the PCL hasn't done much better than three million, They also say that $10,000 is about as high as anyone could be induced to go for a drafted player. LOBBY LEFTOVERS First trade of the Minor League convention involved a pitcher, who won no games and lost 12, and a 212 hitter for a hurler who looked so bad when he was sold to Portland a couple of years ago that the sell- ing club refunded the price . . That’s the tipoff on the kind of business they're doing . . . Rumors include a Clea FINER . Public Acconl_anl-Stenographic-Tax Returns MURPHY and MURPHY ROOM 3—First Nationil Bank Building . The Triangle REGULAR CLEANING of Your Clothing Makes Fine Clothes Look LONGER .. JUST CALL Maggio, and some sort of Pirates deal, which hasn't gone far because each club withdrew its first otfer after hearing what the other would give . The Dodgers might send Luis Olmo to Cincinnati for Ray Lammanne . . . You might say that trade s Olmost made. OUT WHERE THE TALL SCORES GROW Dittmer of Elkader, lowa, school, who played in the Esquire Boys baseball game last summer, put in a few weeks this fall scoring 218 of his team’s 405 points to help win the upper Iowa conference football title and Webster City, Iowa, which produced Bill (191 points) Chauncey last fall, came up with an- other pretty fair scorer this year. Merle Harris, 150-pound quarterback made 17 touchdowns and passed for four more . . .'And in Utah, Quart- erback Bill Grean of Provo tallied 14 points in eight games, playing only about two-thirds of the time, and heaved eight touchdown passes Scme observers in the Rocky Mountain region. rate him a better prospect than Whizzed White was in his Prep days. FIGGERS DO LIE Wtken the Denver U. football team played Colorado A and M, each team made .13 first downs . the yardage totals showed just two in favor of D. the punting averages were within a yard of being equal Each team recovered two op- penents’ fumbles and each was pen- alized ten yards . Tie score? No, D. U. 35, A and M 12. UNHAPPY HAPFY cball Commissioner “Happy" handler probably is these days where he ever got that nickname . . . Happy'’s grin is undim- med but it must let to be frozen baseball premoticn thing he has emphasized since he L2came head man was that he want- ed to do anything “for the good of baseball” A lot of that speech- making, that has been charged off to “politics”, has been done with the cut of the new setup—the one idea that it would stir up some interest in the game to have the commissioner appear at a Father- and-Son bafiquet or a high school victory celebration . . . “I never thought I would be anyone of im- portance,” Happy said the other day, “but I can remember what a thrill it would have been to me when I was a kid to have a Major league player or any prominent baseball man appear in my home town. If Muddy Ruel and I can do the same thing, I think it is a very small con- tribution for the good of the game.” TODAY’S GUEST STAR Tommy Fitzgerald, Louisville Cour- ier-Journal: “When Pants Rowland announced the Pacific Coast league was geing major, everybody was shocked. They thought Pants was talking through his hat.” - - GASTINEAU REGISTRANTS Among visitors from the states registering at the Gastineau Hotel yesterday were: Sgt. Willlam G Banman and Donald I.
