IRISH PRAISED AS
MORE ALL-AMERICA
TEAMS ARE PICKED
Jack Veiock Places Hunk"
Anderson and Kiley on First
Mythical Eleven.

Hunk Anderson and three of his
team mates took a long deserved
place in the sports HmeHght yester-
day when Jack Veiock, the veteran
sporting editor Of the International
News. picked them for his All
American teams. Hunk and Roger
Kiley were placed on the first team;
Eddie Anderson and Paul Cashier
on the second.
The recognition at last meted TO
Hunk is one of the most pleasing
pieces of news that has been heard
at Notre Dame this fall. For three
years those who follow NOtre Dame
football have been wondering just
what prevented the critics from see
ing the sterling character Of his
work. His natural modesty and
avoidance of grand stand play was
thought to be the reason. This fall,
however, Hunks playing has forced
him to the top, and although Veiock
has not been the first man TO place
him on an All-American, he IS the
most important figure in the news
paper world TO do so as yet. This is
what VeiOck says:
Not Biggest, but Best.
II. Anderson, Notre Danes husky
left guard. is not the biggest guard
who ever wore a moleskin. but he
ranks among the best. Shifty, cap
able Of assisting his tackle in open
ing q hole. and equally agile IN
ploughing through opposing lines
on defense. Anderson does not have
TO doff his chapeau 10 anybody play
ing his position. though some others
may be equally good. For that rea-
son, he is given one Of the guard
positions"
If Veiock had seen Hunk hold the
mighty Slater as no other football
man has ever succeeded in doing.
if he had seen him wipe the earth
with his husky 215 pound opponent
from Nebraska, If he had seen him
smashing the lines Of Indiana and
Purdue and Marquette. he might
have had even nicer things to say.
KiIey Improves.
Kiley is lauded 10 the skies by this
writer Speaking of ends in gen
eral he said: Good ends were plen-
tiful again this year. Football
coaches have resorted to the custom
Of encoura cling their wing men to
play basketball during the winter
months ever since the forward pass
came into general use. and a major
ity of the crack ends Of the country
are whizzes on the basketball court.
which makes them peculiarly adept
at handling the ball via the aerial
route. Such ends are Kiley and
Anderson of NOtre Dame; McCOllum
Of Penn State, and stephens of Cal
ifornia. Kiley was a member of my
first All-American team of 1920, and
we can say without fear OF contra
dlcuon that he was better than ever
this year. All these attributes has
Kiley: for sheer physical power,
speed. ability to run in the open
field and receive forward passes, he
was a bear indeed. on offense. he Is
a smashing. sure-fre tackler, poison
to any kind of interference, and a
player who inspires those around
him by his brillianCe."
Veiock claims that his second
All-American team so closely APP
proaches the caliber Of his first that
p!tted together the two teams could
put up a battle worth travelling
from coast to coast to see. providing
they played and practiced together
as teams Eddie Anderson and
Paul Cashier were placed on this
team. Veiock writes that "Castner
made the east marvel at the fact
that he was a NOtre Dame substi-
tute. He is a left footed kicker who
gets away a punt or a drop kick
with surprising accuracy" Then
after praisins the whole Notre Dame
team in general he gives specia.
