ALL STAR nine
FOR AMATEURS
Mythical Clubs Picked
From Sandlot Teams
Competing This Season.

One of the most difficult tasks in
sports is to pick an all-star combina
ton out of about 200 players. No
doubt there will be a great deal OF
discussion and argument as to the
wisdom of several OF the selections;
but. be that as it may. here they
are:
The pitching choice is Anil Pfeil.
Pfcil has done great work this sea
son for War Risk, being one of the
main factors of half of his team VIC
tories. and having a whole lot to
do with the fact that they are in the
post-season series. He also holds the
strike-out record OF the District. set
ting twenty-five men down on strikes
in a game the latter part OF this
season. Taking it all in all. there is
very little room for argument in that
choice.
BUS" Hager, of Naval Operations,
has been chosen for the backs top
ping position. One OF the features
OF his playing is the way he uses
his head. He studies the batters and
learns their weaknesses. this being of
great help to his battery mate. And
WIN oil VI AiidN llt 10 NOi SOOu
cleanup hitter. breaking up many
games with his long drives.
Fraser at First.
Monk" Fraser is the first base
man. Beard, of Naval Operations.
and Tommy CroOkes, of Navy Yard.
come up for consideration. but after a
great deal of thinking Fraser is
still the choice. He is a more An
ished player than Beard and as
| everyone knows Crookes reached his
zenith several seasons ago.
The second base selection did not
/ take much time as Al Watt stands
head and shoulders above the rest
of the keystone Cavorters.
Sill. who plays that bag for
Southern, has been given second
choice. At this junction Pat"
Rooney comes to mind. He is a
clever fielder and a good sticker.
but Sill was given the preference
because of Rooney's inability to
play if the two teams were pitted
against each other.
BIeIr Best Shortstop.
Johnny Bleir has been chosen to
cover the shOrtfield. Although given
close race by Girardi, Bleirs su-
perior hitting and stellar fielding
give him the position.
McMahOn is covering the hot cor
ner. His work so far in the post
season series goes far toward prov
ing his worth. His ability as a lead
off man also gives him an advan-
tage.
The outfield was the hardest TO pick.
because there are many clever gar
deners on the various teams. Snyder
of War Risk. was placed in left field
being a good hitter and a sure fielder
| Centertield was not so difficult
Country Morris being that seleC-
tion. He is the best hitting outfielder
in the District: he can field, and has
had more experience than the ma
jority OF the outer gardeners. Swee-
ney was chosen 10 cover right field
because of his hitting prowess. He
is natural born hitter. and can hold
, his own in the fielding end OF the

Hughey figured tat a brainy catcher
