THE OMAHA DAILY BEE SUNDAY DECEMBER iy, 1902 GOSSIP FROM THE GRIDIRON Beleotion of Teams for Second Place Honors Engenders a Debate, ALL-AMERICAN ELEVENS NOW IN ORDER Ne ka Refosed Admi Big Nime Heeause the in Already Too for Comfort, No person disputes the fact of the supre- | macy of Yale In the eastern foot bal The allotment of places to elevens is a matter of much difficulty and one In which there are many opinions. A study of the several authorities leads one to the bellef that after Yale comes Prince- ton. Some members of the Yale te that Harvard was stronger than Pri but the Tigers made the best showing against Yale. They did not galn as much ground as Harvard, but they scored, their defence was more stubbornly eustained and they kept Yale's total down much lower than did Harvard. Only two touchdowns were made in the entire season against Princeton, while eight were Harvard West Yale to test field the other one each by Bowdoin, Wesleyan, Point and Dartmouth and four by 80 long as the teams did not mer their relative strength the results indicate that Princeton’s defensive strength more than offset Harvard's offensive su- periority. Harvard ranks third and West Point fourth, Harvard having beaten West Polnt. Had the army met Princeton there would have been a better means of paring Princeton and Harvard, and it Do means sure that Princeton would beaten the soldiers. In the Anpapolis game the West Point attack was the most consistently strong of any team's Yale's. Yale's was the only ono encountered by West Point that prevented sustained gains. Pennsylvania deserves to rank fifth on account of its stiff against Harvard and the brace which beat Cornell. It is true that the Quakers were beaten by the Indlans, Annapolls and Brown, but the form Thanksgiving day would have almost cer- tainly carried them successtully through the earlier defeats. w The selection of an all-eastern team Is a dificult matter and one which calls out many differences of opinion. The foot ball expert of the New York Sun sclects the two following elevens for first and second ability: First Team—Shevlin, Yale, and Bowditch, Harvard, ends; Hogan, Yale, and Kinney Yale, tackles:’ Glass, 'Yale, and DeWitt, Princeton, guards; 'Holt, = Yale, center} Rockwell, ¥ auarterback; Chadwick, Yale, and Bunker, West Point, halfbacks] Graydon, Harvard, fullback. Second am—Davis, Princeton, _and Metzger, Pennsylvania, ends; Graves, West Point, and Sheehan, Hrown, tackles; € Yale,' and Warner, Cornell, guards; Cabe, Pennsylvania, center; Daly, ~West Poinf, quarterback; Metcalf, Yaie, and Weekes, Columbia, halfbacks; Bennett, Pennsylvania, fullback. Nebraska was turned down at the confer- ence of the Big Nine in Chicago November 29 and no reason was given for their refusal to admit the Cornhuskers to the assocla- tion. Notre Dame was also refused fellow- ship. The ‘reason for this action is easily apparent, however, in the number of teams already In the conference. The Big Nine is unwieldy and the addition of two more elevens would make it cumbrous. The coaches and studeat and faculty man- agers of the college teams were nearly all present at the meeting to tulk over next year's playing dates. Representatives of smaller schools worked for dates with the more important ones, but little could be done because the big contests had not yet been arranged. The Wisconsin, Chicago and Minnesota contests have not been determ- ned upon and only propositions from small teams have been considered by these three. Coach Stagg and Manager Butterworth and George Huft of Illinois were besieged by Manager Engle and Coach McLean of Knox, who were trying to get games with Chi- cago, Illinols and Wisconsin, Chicago ar- ranged to meot Illinois on Marshall feld October 24, and talked of contests with N braska and Knox, but made no definite agreement. According to Huff, Illinols will have practically the same schedule next year as this, as its agreements are for two years. It will play Indiana, Perdue, lowa, Northwestern, Chicago and Minnesota. Coach McLean says Knox will not meet Nebraska unless the Cornhuskers wish to come east. Knox would prefer a game with JTowa. Nebraska hopes to play Min- nesota in Lincoln next year, as it has gone to Minneapolis the last two seasons. For an all western foot ball team Carl M. Green makes the following selection: Fullback—Sweeley of Michigan. Halfbacks—Heston of Michigan, Van V kenberg of Minncso Quarterback—Weel tain). Center—Ellsworth of Chi Guards—Flynn of Minn, Michigan. Tackles—Maddock of Michigan, Chicago. ,Ends—Cook of Tilinots, Abbott of Wiscon- in. Substitutes—Ahlswede of Chicago, Graver of Michigan. Mr. Green says: “The selection of an all- western foot ball team Is always a delicate matter, and this season with its many stars proves no exception to the rule. Team work as exemplified by the Michigan cham- plons 1s, of course, the essential element in foot ball success, and any all-star eloven 1s essentlally a “paper team. However, granting that Yost's great team play coull be infused Into the men named above, I be- leve that it would make the most formid- able aggregation which the west could pro- duce “The season just closed has brought out more great players than any other recent year, and in several positions it 1s the superabundance of material which makes the selection of the real leaders difeult of Michigan (cap- ago. sota, McGugin of Farr of perbaps of Michigan at quarterback, Always the Same Good Old BLATL BEER The Pride of Milwauke Postal Card for New Brochure RICHT which tells why BLATZ B:ZER I8 BLATZ MALT-VIVINE (NON-INTOXICANT) TONIC FORTHE WEAK All Drugststs or Direct VAL, BLATZ BREWING CO., Milwaukee OMAHA BRANCH, 1413 Douglas Tel, 1081, made against | | com- exoept | game | they displayed on | Flynn of Minnesota at guard and Heston of Michigan at halfback stand out so prom- inently that there is practically no chance to overlook them In all the remaining positions the competition is decidedly close for places.” The following lineups are the result of the observation of George W.

It will be seen that these two authorities { differ much in making the sclections, and agree on only six positions. The roc on Weeks for quarterback and Flynn and McGugin for guards, and on Maddock for one of the tackle positions and Abbott for an end. They also each give Heston a place at halfback. Woodruff picks four of the five which Green names for his second leven, but does mot give Sweeley a place. However, the two critics make mention of practically the same men as star players in helr respective positions. The popular idea that foot ball is the strenuous game is not without foundation to judge by the fatality list for the year. | Foot ball has this year claimed fitteen vic- tims. Ten more players have been re as fatally hurt and the Chicago Record pub lishes a list of about 100 injured and, nec | essarily, this is far from complete. Also this list does not include bruises and minor injuries, many of which would be reported | 1n & 1ist of casuaities in a fire or railroad | wreck, but which pass unnoticed in the more calamite foot ball. As is to be ex- | pected, all the fatalities and supposedly | tatal accidents and the major portion of the lesser Injuries occur in the school and col- lege teams. The injuries often come in the indiecriminate piling up of men which is so frequent among young and unskilled play- |ers. Then in the larger colleges and uni- versities the hardest games do not come until the men have been through a long course of preparatory training and harden- Ing. While in the small schools every boy of size 1s almost forced by popular senti- ment to play, in the great universiuies there {18 such a fleid to choose from that none but the best can play at all. many boys, who though large for their ages are constitutionally weak, play and are easily injured, while in the latter none | of these could ever get beyond a few deys' practice, even it they desired to play. The | blg schools have the advantage of the best of tralners and coaches, which the others lack; the less important teams are usually forced to play against heavier and older men, and the injured are usually on the lighter side.

Two shoulder plates lined with sheetiron, a sheetirons breastplate and a hand guard also lined with sheetiron con- stituted the exhbits. One of the shoulder pleces has the name “Tonkin" carved on it, and it is claimed was worn by that player in the game. The breastplate is also said to have covered his manly chest. The iron was riveted back of the leather, between it and the felt lining, and from appearances made a formidable bulwark of offence or detence.

Papa Bill Rourke is mothing it not a philosopher. His long and varfed experi- ence in base ball has taught him that he can't win every game, and that the best anyone can do is to keep a trying. He realizes that the Western league has a £00d position in the fight, no matter it the conference at Chicago did give it the worst of the decision, and he proposes to make his share of the fight as lively as he can. “It only takes one" is the cheery call of the coacher during the summer, and the hopeful magnate keeps that thought before him during the winter. Papa Bill is doing a thinking part just now; hasn’t got a word to say beyond the fact that he is looking for good pitchers, and hopes to land a bunch of five at least. Oscar Graham will be back, and another old-timer Bill has in mind will make a staff to start the season with. As to the rest of the team Mr. Rourke makes but one promise—it will be as fast as it was last summer, and that ought to satisty any- body. Omaha people know that Papa Bill doesn't do a great deal of talking, and that he always makes good on his promises. D. C. Packard of Denver is using his megaphone overtime just now, and the bur- den of his song is the Chicago compromise. Mr. Packard insists that the Western got all it was looking for. Well, opinione dif- ter as to that, but the fact is that what the Western got was a plenty s Mr. Pack- ard's town Is lucky, by reason of its loca- tion, to be in any league, he is justified can, but most of them know better. One thing that did develop at that Chicago con- ference Is that foxy George Tebeau has been eclipsed by a brother magnate in point of base ball diplomacy. W. H. Watkins, old boy, the last one in the bunch who would have been suspected of it, did the work, turned the trick that brought the national board to the point of admitting the Hickey- ites to the fold. While all tho rest of the wise ones were skinning their bands and waiting for the cinch play to come, smooth old William Hennery Watkins from Indiana slipped in a cold deck, and the pot was his'n. What did he do? Well, it now comes out that while Tebeau and the other good things were raiding the National league and American league and making high-priced talks about their star players, Watty was quietly going into the Pacific Northwest league and sneaking players away from Lucas, and going into the Connecticut league, and other little places where the members of the board had their base ball interests, and getting their players. Only one way to stop this appeared to the mem- bers of the board, and thal was to get Watty under its control. So the American association was taken in, all the players were assigned to their old clubs, and the fight was declared off without regard to the rights of the Western. It was a mighty nice thing to pass outlaw resolutions and de- clare relentless warfare against the Hickey- ites, so long as it didn't affect any of the directors of that wonderful board of con- trol. Just as soon as they had to get finto | the game, they weakened. Indeed, it was a wonderful victory for ‘‘organized ball.”* Down and out in & punch, and the “out- laws” the winners. Tim Murnane can now resume his debate as to which is the big- gest lcague, the Hickey or the Powers. Tim figures that because the Powers towns have more people the league is the biggest. He | entirely overlooks the fact that it fsn't the number of people who.live in a town that makes it good for base ball. It's the peo- ple who buy tickets at the gate on whom the game depends. Frank Genins is handing out some nice bouguets for Omaha from his winter quar- ters in St. Louls. In the meantime the Omaha fans are saying nice things about Frank, so that the score is a tle all the way, and neither side has made an error.

A boil, gr abscess, burn, blister, wart, tumor, mole, or the simplest little pimple may be the beginning point of a malignant, frightful looking Cancerous Ulcer. Apparently there is no difference between a Cancerous and Common Ulcer when they first make their appearance, and for this reason every ulcer, no matter how insignificant or harmless it may seem, and all slow healing sores should excite suspicion and cause alarm, particularly if any of your ancestors ever had Cancer, or you have good reason to think your blood is impure; for the sore, after all, is only the outgrowth, the external evidence of polluted “blood, and nothing can check its progress until the cancer tainted, vitiated blood has been purified. Al efforts to heal the ulcer by means of salves or other external remedies will result in failure, for such treatment can have no possible effect upon the deadly germs and morbid matter that form in the blood and are carried through the circulation to the sore.
