Not since 1908 have I been request- ed to select an ‘All-American football team. That year I picked one in’ex- change for three photographs of Bill Hollenback carrying the ball off tackle in a Penn-Michigan game was that team feated and I must let it stand as it was. I have often wondered, since. it was unl ‘why some magazines or newspapers, haven't. asked me, at pre- valling rates, toaelom. choose or pick other All-American teams, for none have pver had a' better record than mine.” In-fact, I am in an unusually good sition to pick anether year. I have seen by actual count one dozen elevens in action. That one thousand or ymore other college foot- ball teams should have competed weekly all fall makes no difference to me. I still maintain that I have had as broad and thorough a view of the available material as anyone and that my eleven would put up a smashing game—on paper. But as no one has given a reason, like the three photos above mention- ed, I am not going to select an All- American team. Up to date or down to the present, if you prefer it that way, all All-American teams have done nothing to justify their exist- ence. True their photographs have featured the periodicals and Football Guides, but T heold that I could pick eleven better looking players for sim- llar exposure each season. seleu._o-_of Allshuinn ‘Foothall Tiains Hufi'l'mduiq | having Pennsylvania men make, the wn - under hnlas on defense. dexterous— first name was m by the way. —hn made interference without re- quest. “There’s your All-American learned. a long run dnflng the Cornell game.

He has left a mark many an opponent to shoot at for next ten years. It is reported that there will be a contest over the election of captain at the Academy.

Call Money Rose to 15 Per Cent., the Highest Rate in Three Years. Néw York, Dec. 4—Call money's rise to 16 per cent., the highest rate in over three vears and exceeding by § per cent. the maximum quotations attained during the first week of the war, was the overshadowing and disturbing fea- ture of today’s active market. The flurry, which was regarded as temporary—the final quotation being 7 per cent—was accepted as a sequel to the steady impairment of local cash holdings. Since the first week of No- vember actual reserve of clearing house banks have suffered a_reduc- tion from $124,000,000 to the $41,000,- 000 reported last week. Much of this shrinkage results from the distribution of money to banks at other reserve centers and heavy di- rect payments to the interior for sup- plies, largely exports.

I haven't the breadth of vision and I fear some one would say that my selection reminds them of the story which ends with the sentence, “As to that, my son, there is a differ- ence of opinion.” And even if space rates werc enticing I can’t figure out another reason for this All-Allegorical stuff. Some defend it on the grounds of beinz harmless, but in these days of high cost of print paper space is too valuable to engage in harmless past- times. | But I don’t think tha All-American game is harmless. It tends towards intercollegiate sport for glory’s sake. It makes or big heads and dissensions and it has nothing educational about it, which, by the by, is the !'eason back of our college games. Fortunately there is an idea going the rounds which impressing edu- cational men. It is, therefore, strange as it may seem, not my own. It has something of this All-American busi- ness back of it. The plan is to have the coaches of the leading teams in the east and west select two sectional teams to play _an annual post-season game in say, New York and Chicago.
