K.—Foster, Wisconsin Tosser, Reinstated. By the Associated Press CHICAGO, December 8.—Mayes Mc- Lain, the Giant Cherokee charger, full- back, with the University of Towa eleven this season, will not plow up the Hawk- eye gridiron next year. McLain was barred from further ath- letic competition in the Western Con- ference by the conference eligibility committee today. The committee ruled that McLain's two seasons of play at Haskell Institute, prior to his enroll- ment at Iowa, together with last Fall's activity with the Hawkeyes, constituted three years of foot ball comremhn The Big Ten restricts its athletes to three years in any sport. The disbarment of the spectacular In- dian player was based on a decision reached in the conference in 1904 which placed the Haskell Institute of Law- rence, Kans, on a basis of athletic equality with Big Ten institutions. The action against McLain was instituted by the eligibility committee, a diviston of the faculty committee assisting in the control of athletics. The committee gave Allen Holman, Ohio State's quarterback, a clean bill, declaring him eligible for two more years of competition with the Buckeyes. Holman was a student for one year at Towa State College, at Ames, Towa, and then transferred to Ohio State. A con- ference rule governing transfer students provides that any such student who years of residence instead of one before becoming eligible for athletics. The question involving Holman was whether he was up to his scholastic re- quirements at Iowa State at the time he transferred. The committee ruled he was a failure only in military training, a course compulsory for freshmen at Ames, but not recognized as a scholastic requirement because no college credit is given for it. Passing on the eligibility of McLain, Holman and Harold Foster, junior cen- ter of the Wisconsin basket ball team, | was the outstanding action winding up the two days’ conference. Foster was reinstated following his disbarment of a year ago on the tech- nical charge of professionalism.

Tech scored first in the second quar- ter when McCrary's fumble gave the Tornado the ball on Georgia's 18-yard line. Lumpkin finally went over.

N Apache foot ball eleven will leave Union League Pnrk lor the first time this season to invade a rival's stmnghnld with a far different Little In- dlan team than any that has gone forth in former years to meet its traditional foe, the Mohawks. The eleven that Bill Supplee leads into Griffith Stadium this afternbon to meet_the husky Mohawk outfit coached by Craig Wilton will be a favorite for the first time in the history of the annual title scraps in which these teasa | have played the leading roles. It always has been the “Little Indians’ to sandlot fans referring to the Apaches but this year Supplee has put new blood into the tribe and there will be little advantage in averdupois for either team. Apaches Won Last Year. For seven years the Apaches baitled gamely, much as the Northerns have been doing the past few seasons, to gain the championship. Last year they man- aged to turn the trick under the guid- ance of Ty Rauber, now coach at Cen- tral High. Supplee probably has carried on Rauber’s work as well as Ty might have wished to do himself. Apaches now probably are one of the best, if not the best, amateur combinations ever developed here. After a year of humiliation caused by the Apache triumph last year, the awks also have improved greatly over last year. The present Hawk team would have retained the title against the Apaches a year ago, but it is a question among sandlot followers whether they have improved enough this season to overcome the edge the Apaches displayed last Fall. Both Teams Ready. Both'teams will enter the fray keyed to the occasion. Wilton and Supplee have speht a busy week developing new plays under cover. Each team has kept a scout in the opposing camp through- out the season and the scoring punch of each today will depend largsly on the success of the new offensive built up during the past few days. Apaches have a versatile and fleet backfield that is likely to outdistance by far the bigger and hard-charging Hawk ball carriers. In Snail, Delabre, Joe Sweeney, Hilleary, Smithson Linkous and Twoomey, the Little In- dians have as good a bunch of backs as ever was collected on one sandlot team here. Supplee and Brown are well drilled ends, the former having lost lit- tle of his ability that brought him all- America mgntion a few years ago. Clif- ford, once with the Hawks, has been dependable at center throughout thc season, and Montague was generally | chosen an_all-high guard this_seaso' n!ter a_brilliant game for Easter against Tech.

A | ‘great foot ball player. In selecting an eleven on the basis | outlined above. it has been necessary for | {me to eliminate some men who are at the very top and who would seem to deserve a place on anybody's all- America. Such a man is McMullen of Nebraska. As an opener of holes on attack and a slashing tackler on de- fense, McMullen of Nebraska is a truly great guard. At times this season he was the whole Nebraska line. Weigh- ing 212 pounds and but 5 feet 6 inches tall, he is one of those underslung guards who combine the speed of light- ning with the power of a tractor. In the final game of the season, Hoff- man of California showed to advan- tage as a fullback, but until the West Point game he had not stood out this year as living up to his qualifications. Robesky of Stanford in the Army game showed himself to be a great guard, as in fact he has all season. Some con- sider him the peer of Post. But the writer does not. Carroll of Washington is another player who dessrves special mention. Playing on a losing team, Carroll stood out. as the best backfield man on the Pacific Coast. But the writer did not see him and he is too dazzled by stars he did see to yield them to Carroll. The Roll of Honor.
