Colgate University HE year 1936 will go down in I gridiron history as a good one for Eastern foot ball. In in- tersectional games with teams from all parts of the country Eastern teams have given splendid accounts of themselves. The 10 best teams in the East seem to be Pittsburgh, Fordham, Holy Cross, Dartmouth, Temple, Penn- sylvania, Yale, Army, Duquesne and | There is no attempt made | in this list to mention them in the or- | Princeton. der of strength. This group of 10 teams is sufficiently strong to meet a similar group from any other section of the country under equable condi- tions with fair chances for success. The 1936 season in the East has produced a game with the proper balance between the offense and the defense. The offense in general has been versatile, featuring a nice bal- ance between the running attack and the passing game. Lateral passes have been used frequently with great effectiveness. The lateral pass is finding its proper place in the of- fensive scheme. The forward pass continues to be the game's greatest scoring threat. Kelley Has the Works. BECAUBE of the great number of major teams in this section, the selection of an all-Eastern team pre- sents a more difficult problem than the choosing of other all-sectional | groups. The selection of this all-Eastern team is based upon information re- ceived from reliable observers as well 88 upon my own personal observa- tion. Men are selected for depend- ability and consistency throughout the season rather than for brilliant or spectacular performance in & few games. Because of the important place forward passing has in the modern game, all-star ends must of neces- sity be great pass receivers. tion, ends must be sufficiently ver- satile to be experts in covering kicks, blocking in the open and in their ability to handle tackles. The end’s posttion requires a maximum of smartness on defense, as he must protect his outside from wide plays and also be able to smash plays in- side of him. Larry Kelley, the Yale captain, meets all of these requirements. He s & great pass catcher and is an in- spirational leader. Kelley is a real foot ball opportunist, a wonderful eompetitor who plays his best game under pressure. He is a winning| ball player of the type that any coach would welcome to his squad. His per- sonality and playing ability would turn almost any team into a winner. He is an improved defensive player this season. Kelley would be selected as captain of our mythical eleven, Daddio of Pitt Versatile. ELLEY'S running mate is Daddio, the brilliant Pittsburgh wing. *This boy is one of the finest all-around ends in the country. He has been consistently good and has played 60 minutes of almost all of Pittsburgh's important games. % Other ends that are much above average are O'Donnell, Holy Cross; Stromberg and Kobes, Army; Seigal, Columbia; Paquin, Fordham; Ippolito, Temple; Holland, Cornell, and Ritchko, Colgate. 1t is a foot ball adage that a strong line is essential to winning foot ball teams. Efficient foot ball walls make heroes of the backs. This year there are exceptionally good lines at Ford- ham, Pittsburgh and Dartmouth. This accounts, in a great measure, for the success that these teams have had this season. Fordham probably has the best defensive line in the East. ‘The bulwark of a team'’s defense is the tackles. They must bear the brunt of opponents’ running attack. Tackles must be durable and stand up under great offensive pressure. fensively they must have a vicious charge that will open holes in the; line and they must also be able to run interference. Franko Great on Defense. 'RANKO of Fordham has been a stand-out as a defensive tackle on the Fordham line. He has been out- standing on defensive in every game that Fordham has plaved. He is also & strong player offensively. Docherty of Temple is selected as the other tackle. Docherty is 6 feet 2, ‘weighs 215 pounds and is sufficiently fast to run interference in Glenn War- ner’s type of offense. In addition to his ability as a defensive and offensive tackle, he is a splendid place-kicker. Other tackles who rate all-Eastern eonsideration are Camerer and Ben- nett, Dartmouth; Daniell, Pittsburgh; Toll, Princeton; Chesbro, Colgate; Moncewicz, Holy Cross; Barbartsky, Fordham. Guards in modern foot ball are se- | lected for agility and speed. Size is not a necessary attribute, but is a wvaluable asset if the other qualifica- tions are there. Guards must run much interference and must be able to block in the open. Guards must be able to come out of the line to block and protect the forward passer. They must be able to open holes in the line. A good guard on defense must be able to protect his own territory and also upon occasion lend aid on flank plays. < L] The two guards who measure up to these qualifications are Glassford of Pittsburgh and Pierce of Fordham. In the last 10 years Pittsburgh has had as fine guards as any teams in the country. Glassford, a big, fast 200-pounder, measures up to the abil- ity of the fine Pittsburgh guards of | the East. Pierce has been an excep- tionally fine unit of the strong Ford- ham line. He has been spectacular on defense. Five Centers Are Great.

RIGHT and early at 7 o'clock ‘Thanksgiving morning the B water fow] season opens in the Southern zone, in which Mary- land and Virginia are included. Shoot- ing will continue thereafter, with the exception of Sundays, until December 26. If you have your hunting license and if you have purchased your duck stamp at the nearest post office and canceled it by pasting it on your license and writing your name across it, then you are privileged to go out between the hours of 7 am. and 4 pm. and shoot 10 a day with the exception of wood, canvasback, red- head, ruddy and buffiehead duck and brant. It sounds like quite an assignment and it is. However, as wood, ruddy and buffiehead already were barred from the hunter’s bag, the only ad- ditions to the closed list this year are the canvas and reds. In addition, brant were given protection in Atlantic Coast States. These birds have decreased rmingly in the last few years, according to Dr. Ira N. Gabriel- son, chief of the Biological Survey, but there still are enough left to replenish the species if they are given ade- quate protection. | This is all part of the Govern- ment's efforts to preserve duck hunt- ing. Another feature of the program is the purchase of marshes where ducks can rest, breed and find Wintering quarters. About $6.000,000 have been spent for land purchase alone. BIUCH of this money has been ex- pended for the purchase of breeding grounds up North and al- ready it has shown results in in- creased bird stocks. Part of it, how- ever, has gone for resting places along the main migratory routes or for Wintering grounds. A good example of this is Roaches Run, just the other side of Highway Bridge on the Mount Vernon Boulevard. You can drive over there today and see scores of ducks diving down to the feeding grounds or resting placidly on the many half- sunken logs which serve as their sleeping quarters. They seem to have a sixth sense which tells them that they are safe from marauding hunt- ers there. At all events, they rest calmly | while automobiles fly by and trains | roar over the nearby bridge. Down at | Gunston Cove the reverse is true. They are afforded no protection there and they seem to know it. At the first approach of a human they sca | ter upward and wheel away. Inci- | dentally, plenty of ducks have put in their appearance and more are ar- riving daily. Matthew Ramage, who has three blinds at Maryland Point, about 40 miles down the river, says that this really looks like a good duck year. | DUCK hunters in the Chesapeake Bay region will have to be espe- cially careful this year to see that they shoot no redheads or canvas- backs, as their section is where the largest concentration of these pro- tected species occur. They will have | i 2zynski, Temple; Luciano, Holy Cross; Coviello, Columbia; Dalle-Tezze, Pitts- | burgh. | The East has probably the greatest | group of fine centers it has had in re- | cent years, There are at least five | centers, any one of whom is good ‘enouah to be an all-Eastern selection in any ordinary year. Basrak, Duquesne, a 220-pounder, has been a great pivot-man all sea- son. Wojciechowicz of Fordham has been the most spectacular defense cen- ter in the East. Ray of Dartmouth was selected as our all-East center last | year and is an improved player this | season. He is a great inspirational | leader on the fleld. Messervey of Tem- | | ple, according to Glenn Warner, is| yone of the greatest centers that the veteran has ever coached. When you }thmk of Warner's fine centers of the ' {past this is high praise. Hauze of | Pennsylvania is a remarkably fine cen- ter. All of these boys are strong de- fensely, are good passers and have | carried out their offensive assignments satisfactorily. The selection of the all-East center is very much of a toss- up. All things considered, my selec- tion is Wojciechowicz. Sandbach Best General. As 1S usually the case, there are & great number of outstanding backs in the East. In the backfield of our all-Eastern eleven we must have present all elements of great- | ness. It is necessary to have an out- | standing field general, a good kicker, exceptional passing, decisive blocking, good ball carrying and strong defense, This all-star backfield must have an attribute of alertness and smartness both offensively and defensively. For quarterback the choice is Sand- bach of Princeton. This boy has been a star for three years, and is one of the East’s best fleld generals. He is a fine passer, a great blocker and a good ball carrier. Murray of Pennsylvania is another specialist, a real triple-threat per- former who would add strength to any backfield. The two work horses of the backfield are Handrahan of Dartmouth and Osmanski of Holy Cross. Handrahan is a fine bucker and a very good ball handler. Osmanski is one of the hardest-running backs I have seen in recent years. These two boys would give any backfield great power, Some Other Good Ones. A SECOND backfield that probably is just as good as the one se- lected could be composed of Meyer, Army: Frank, Yale: Larue, Pittsburgh, and Jaeger of Colgate. Other boys who have turned in consistent per- formances for the year are White, Princeton; McLeod, Dartmouth; Schmidt and Ingram, Navy; Luck- man and Furey, Columbia; Kidd, Holy Cross; Dulkie, Palau and Mautte of Fordham; Goldberg and Stapulis, Pittsburgh; Stopper, Villanova; Al- Kaba- rosky, Trinity; Burke and Labor, Col- gate; King, Hobart; Ryan, Army; El- verson and Kurlish, Pennsylvania; Harrison, Penn State; Duquesne, University. In the selection of an all-East team (Copyright, 1936, by the North Newspaper "An:-. 1ne) and Gun to learn how to identify these species, Dr. Gabrielson said, both for the sake of conserving the threatened birds and of staying out of court. “Ade- quate protection means complete protection, and hunters who expect future sport are urged to co-operate in this year’s closed season on these birds.” To ald sportsmen, the Biological Survey chief describes the outstand- ing characteristics of the canvasback and redhe: “If the head is red, don’t shoot,” he said, but often colors | are hard to distinguish in the open and the hunter therefore relys largely on pattern and outline for his identi- fications. “The male canvasback is easy to identify, even at long distance, by its white back, and both males and females may be told by their long, sloping bills. “Canvasbacks don’t have foreheads, the bill continuing the tapering line of the head. The long head, bill and neck give canvasbacks a ‘front-heavy’ appearance, making them look as though their wings were set too far back. Redheads, like canvasbacks, are fast-flying ducks, and at even a relatively short distance present an apparently uniform gray color. They are chunky ducks, and to some extent their round heads and high foreheads will assist in identification. “They gray wing stripe of the red- head 1is one of the best fleld characters, as the only other diving duck having & gray wing stripe is the ring-necked duck, and it has a black back.” Sum- ming up the “don't shoot” points, Gabrielson said: “Look hard at any fast-flying ducks—they probably are deep-water species. If they show gray wing stripes, a general uniform gray color, or long, tapering heads, slip the safety back into place.” Gridiron ‘Winners’ Picked by Coaches BY ANDY KERR, Colgate Coach.

In 20 years of Rose Bowl activity, there never was a game like that. By the time the whistle blew to start it off, all records for .spectator com- ment and newspaper wordage had been | shattered. The experts had buried Columbia 30 feet deep in every re- spectable cemetery in the world. Hu- manitarians had appealed to the Pres- ident for a stay of execution. The | Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Midgets had burned up the wires between New York and California with | messages of protest and pleas for mercy. Anti-vivisectionists were cru- sading up and down the land in behalf of Lou Little’s scrawny Lions. Then there was the day of the game iteelf, with California real estate men frantically sending out posses and searching parties for a little California sunshine, Just two fingers of daylight, to show those cynical Easterners. “We've been framed!” the wind howled over the big arena, and the gridiron billowed with waves of mud.

There was the touchdown play, the now famous | KP-79, with Al Barabas plodding off | the weak side for the only score of the day. And finally, there was Columbia’s march back home across the country to a Roman triumph, while the East- ern experts roared with glee and shouted “Who's loony now?” Colum- bia men, as a matter of fact, have never stopped talking about it. In lean years and in fat years they hark back to that day in the mud and show you for the eighty-second time how Barabas broke loose off the weak side. It gets a little trying, some- times. Your correspondent, for one, has a cauliffower and a couple of ugly flesh scars on his left, inflicted in moments of stress by wild-eyed Columbia orators. I expect that the men of Stanford have suffered, too, these last few years, and I imagine they will be aiming to set the record straight this Sat- urday when they come to New York to play a memorial con- test with Prof. Little’'s team.
