SPORTS.' Far West THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C, SATURDAY. DECEMBER 8, 23 N y o CAGLE AND STRON N THE BACKFIEL Carroll and Clark Named With Them—Snyder Is on Third Team. BY ALAN J. GOULD. Associated Press Sports Editor. EW YORK, December 8—The shooting stars of the gridiren firmament, collected in the all- American galaxy, once more show a distinct tendency to o follow a South-by-Westward course. It was not so long ago that this an- nual habit was just a matter of in- specting the easiern talent, taking a glance or two at the Big Ten ranks, selecting eleven stars by this somewhat near-sighted method and labeling them “The All-America.’ It was a simple task, at least compar- ed with the job of surveying a nation filled with such gridiron talent as it is today, but the swing of foot ball's pendulum has brought well-earned rec- ognition to players over a wider range of action than ever before. It has been conclusively proved that no one section any longer has a monopoly on star teams or star performers. Whatever shouting there may have been from the eastern hilltops toward the close of November was abruptly stilled after events that transpired at the Yankee Stadium under the direction of Oregon State and Stanford. 3 Nowhere has the nationalizing process in college foot ball been so strikingly emphasized as in the all-America con- sensus compiled by the Associated Press in the four years since the death of Walter Camp, father of the all-star idea 2 This consensus for 1928 represents the opinions of more than 250 experi- enced observers, the compilation of country-wide opinion. It has been gathered first hand by the Associated Press staff of sports experts, men who have “covered” all the big games in every section and been so situated as to best collect the verdicts of sports editors, coaches, scouts and officials. East, Far West Strong. Its sifting, analysis and final com-| ‘pilation shows the Far West, including | the Rocky Mountain area, on a par with the East for the first time in All-America history. The supremacy | in individual honors always enjoyed by the East heretofore, though by | dwindiing margins, now is wiped out | altogether. i On the first team, four places go to | the East, four to the Far West, with the Rocky Mountaia area included for | the first time; two to the South nnd{ only one to the Middle West, experienc- ing an “off-year” in All-America rank- ing. On the All-America squad of 33 players as' a Whole, including second and third elevens, the East again is tied by the Far West with nine places each, while the Middle West has seven, the th six and the Southwest two. *\venfiw—el‘hfi institutions are repre- sented. Only 4 have more than 1 man on the squad of 33. Only 1, Georgia Tech, as.powerful an array as Dixie has ‘produced, can claim the distinction of putting 3 players on the mythical outfit. Stanford, Army and Florida have 2 each in the list. % The battle for places on this year's All-America has been just as keen as | the struggle for team honors. The task of selection has been just as difficult as that of picking ® champwnsl“xlir team in a season that has had its full share of stunning reversals, its rise and fall of team as well as individual fortunes. Star tagkles like Capt. Sprague of the Army and Capt. Hibbs of South- ern California, great backs like Al Marsters of Dartmouth and Redman Hume of Southern Methodist had the bad luck to suffer injuries or mishaps that impaired their effectiveness and consequently lowered- their All-America rankings. Clark a Scoring Star. Nowhere was the race any swifter than that for the backfield positions. It is noteworthy, therefore, that Earl Harry (Dutch) Clark, ball-carrying terrot and halfback extraordinary of Colorado College, gets_into_the back- field combination with Red Cagle of the v Army, Chuck Carroll of ‘Washington and Ken Strong of New York Uni- versity to give the Rocky Mountain its first chance shot at all-America fame lory. .nglagrk,rydeclnred to be the greatest layer the Rocky Mountain area ever gxs produced, gains the quarterback position enly after sharp contest from 8 formidable group of rival candidates, including Howard Harpster, pride of the Eastern general staff; Clyde Crab- tree, versatile star of the Florida Alli- gators; Freddy Vovde of Minnesota, Howard Maple of Oregon State and Don Williams of Southern California. All possess unusual qualities, but | none appears to combine all the es- sentials of foot ball greatness so much as Clark. Clark; alternating this year at quarterback and fullback, perhaps lacks the polished generalship An.d pass- ing artistry of Harpster, but the “Fiying Dutchman” is considerably inore use- ful at bucking a line, skirting the ends or backing up a line. Unusually rug- ged. Clark in two years of keen compe- tition has not failed to score at least one touchdown in every game. His average gain this year was slightly more than 10 yards for every time he handled e ball. ‘h(‘}:.'arles (Chuck) Carroll of Washing- ton and Christian Keener (Red) Cagle of the Army come as close to being | unanimous as any All-America this sea- gon. Both have performed with con- sistent brilliance, as brightly in defeat as in victory. Yet they are widely dif- types. Carroll is more on Clark’s . big and powerful, a stonewall on \se, kicker, passer and a shifty run- ner. Cagle can also kick and he passes | with unusual skill, but the Army cap- | tain-elect for 1929 is noted chiefly for his elusiveness in a broken field, an| art at which he is proclaimed the great- | est since Red Grange was running wild. Cagle’s speed and foot ball intuition are his biggest assets South Rich in Backs. sere are other great halfbacks this | few so thoroughly equipped as! vania, anjextraor- ¢ | | SERAPHIM POST TANFORD s Guard FRANK SPEER GFORG1A T=CH- TRCKIE DALE VAN SICKEL FLORIDA - £nd, ALL-AMERICA “DUTCH CLARK COLORADO, COLLEGE| Quarterback i v __ HCK HOWE PRINCETON - Center FRANKAIN ST MARYS(CAL) End BASKET BALL TEAM LOOKING FOR GAME National Press Building Cardinals are seeking a game for tonight with a 135-140-pound class quint having a gym.

Pommerening Star Tackle. ‘Great ends were difficult to find this year, The first choices for flankmen, ike Frankain of St. Mary’s and Dale Van Sickel of Florida’s fine team, 1ank high, but do not dominate the fleld. The biggest man on the team ouside of Frank Speer, Georgia Tech tackle, Frankain nevertheless 1s fast and rated by Pacific Coast critics as the best all- around end since the days of “Brick” Muller at California. Van Sickel is a star at the passing game in addition to being a good blocker and tackler. Phillips of California, Fesler of Ohio State, Brown of Missourl, Messinger of West Point and Donchess of Pittsburgh were in the front rank all year. The selections in an outstanding group of fine tackles are Otto Pom- merening, credited with almost single- handed lifting Michigan out of its rut, and Frank Speer, 225-pound bulwark in Georgia Tech’'s great line. Pom- merening played throughout the entire season without once yielding to a sub- stitute, an “iron-man” stunt that in itself gives him unique honor. In Michigan's march to the touchdown that meant a final victory over Iowa, eight of the nine plays netting around merening's position. keep off the first team tackles like Mike Getto, one of the outstanding players in Pittsburgh's mighty forward wall, and Gordy Brown, rangy star of the University of Texas eleven. “Butch” Nowack, Illinois captain; Al Lassman of N. Y. U, Mel Dressel of Washington State, Wakeman of Cor- | nell, Mooney of Georgetown and Ban- | Califo croft of California were other fine tackles. Injuries handicapped two of the best, Sprague of the Army and Hibbs of Southern California, while Raskowski of Ohio State failed to reach his 1927 form. Sprague was a two-time All-America, the only surviv from last year's team, but failed to repeat. Post Totes Ball, Too.
