NEW YORK. December 13.-1n com
menting upon the qualifications of the
various players selected for his FIRST
eleven, Walter Camp writes as fol-
lows in Golfers Weekly:
1.-THE lineup of the All-America of
1919 presents the most powerful and
versatile aggregation of players that
time. 1t is practically all veteran
material. educated in the modern
game. There is no man on it who has
not developed to the full the POSSIBLE
tiles OF his position. 1t is combina-
ton of strong. hard-hitting, powerful
and experienced players, with line
OF exceptional physique to lift and
open holes: tight on defense. and with
a backf1eld combining speed and
ference for each other in a most re-
m2rkable way. It has men who can
not only make forward passes, but
receive them. 1t has short and long
distance accurate drop kickers. a
onG-diStance purter, and a quarter
back who never muffs and who is not
only sturdy. but extremely elusive.
when once started down the field with
the ball. There is also to work with
ever ready to take some of the kicks
and run them back, thus making the
most dangerous combination to the
opponents.
Great Lot OF Linemen.

vania. a pair of players of remarkable
speed in getting down the field and

interference, and each an adept on re-

tions to bring about such condi-
ton. Some have been excellent, bur
I think most of them had little or no
merit. 1 have never seen any one
burst into print with the idea ] have
had for several years. viz: Place the
outfielders in box or circle about the
size of the pitchers box or the bat
ters' box. Have a designated place
for these boxes or circles in the field,
all of them a certain distance from
the bases. These boundary lines
could be definitely marked. as are the
foul lines and the coacherS' box 1t
would be necessary for the outhelderS
to remain within their lines until the
ball was hit. That would not be diff
cult to enforce. because rarely does
fielder make a break for the ball until
it comes into contact with the bat.
That is intuition on the part of the
player.
II think you will see at a glance.
ready given it thought. the unlimited
possibilities for spectacular fielding
that would result from compelling the
outfielder to play a permanent posi-
ton. instead of permitting him TO
roam over the outfield at random.
There is nothing more brilliant il
base ball than a running catch by an
outfielder. 1t is real thrill to watch
the race between fielder and ball On
the other hand. what thrill is there in
seeing some player hit the bali on the
nose, mile high and far away. and
then to see some Speaker. Roush or
Hooper moving in a nonchalant way
right in the path OF a ball, completing
the catch without apparent effort? 1
agree with you that it is wonderful
judgment on the part OF the fielder
to know pretty well how to play for
each batter. but it removes much of
the uncertainty of the game. and it
is the thrills on which the fans
thrive.

Do patrons want more hitting?
There is no denying the mastery of
abolition of trick deliveries such as
the spit ball, the shine ball and a
score of others would tend to even up
the situation. Possibly so. but the
element of doubt would still remain.
And, after all, no one has proven
there is an insistent demand by the
public for more hitting. The fan
likes a smuggling match every now
and then, where the final result is
IL to 10 or whereabouts. but there is
a doubt in my mind as to whether he
would care for it as steady diet.
Fans Like Hitting.

Honorahly discharged soldiers sailors or marines will be employed as far as possible by the government in taking the 1920 census. The United States Civil Service commis- sion issued the following call to the War department today:
 Nearly ninety thousand persons will be engaged in the work of collect ing the facts and figures about Uncle Sam's gigantic family after January 2. 1920. as that is the date set for beginning the enumeration of the population of the United states. In this project nearly eighty thou sand workers will be engaged in field work, while the balance will com prise the Washington office force, whore the tabulution, classi 4 'atpn and statistical work will he done from the information secured from representatives of the census bureau in the field.
 In this, as in every other govern ment activity, soldiers, sailors and marines will be given preference in appointments.

Tho majority of the ap- pointments of the census bureau are governed by the civil service rules and regulations and the civil service commissioner announces an cNamina- tion for census bureau clerks or October IS and November 15.
