TOday'S Sport Angle

Picking an All-American football
team for 1921 is going to be more
difficult job than reaching decision
in the disarmament conference.
once upon a time in picking
an All-American team. few OF the
critics got farther west than Phila-
delphia- II was a certainty that
most OF the players would be from
Yale, Harvard and Princeton. on
one certain team you could lay big
odds that most of them would be
from Yale.
Times have changed, however, in
the last i've years. The cast no long
er has all rights reserved for any
and all such teams. The south and
the west have consid ersible to say as
to who will win recognition on the
many mythical teams that are Sc
lected.
Just to give you some idea OF what
the football expert Is up against,
consider a few of the games played
in the last three weeks.
At the opening Of the season II
was pretty generally agreed that
Stanley Keck OF Princeton had a
good chance 10 repeat as an All
American selection. Keck had a
great year in 1920. and in Prince
toms preliminary games showed his
old time form.
Then came the game with Chi
cago. The great Keck was pitted
against Mcclure. one OF the best
tackles in the west. Keck played a
fine game. but Mcclure, according
to all reports, had much the better
OF the battle that was waged be-
tween these two great players.
Princeton was beaten 9 20 0. The
game had dimmed the star Of Keck
and brought Mcclure into the sport
ing spotlight
The scene now shifts TO Chicago.
where Ohio state and Chicago clash
In an all-important Western Con-
ference game. Huffman Of State Is
pitted against Mcclure. the man
who set the east agog by outplaying
Keck. Huffman proceeds TO make
the affair all the more intricate by
outpiaying Mcclure.
Never has there been so many out
standing stars making a bid for the
Au-American. After picking such a
team, or perhaps better, guessing the
team. II would be wise for the per-
son so doing TO seek a cyclone cell

TALKING BALL
Many Towns to Place Crack
Organizations on the
Field
MANY STARS GOT
THEIR START THERE

MILTON. Del. Nov. II. - Della
ware and the Eastern Shore OF
Maryland are very busy with base
bah plans for next season. The
Eastern shore this year enjoyed a
revival in interest in the national
pastime. and from present indica-
tions expect to make the next season
the greatest in the history Of the
game in these parts.
The various towns on the Eastern
Shore and lower Delaware played
some great baseball games the past
season and brought the best players
to be found in this section to play
on their teams. Some OF them were
so good that they were picked up
by the international and Blue Ridge
leagues.
Crisheld. after going through tho
greatest year in its history for base
ball team. is also stirred up and has
taken definite steps for a fast team
for next year Crisheld had one OF
the fastest teams on the Eastern
shore representing this year. Funds
are TO be raised for next year, so
that first-class baseball grounds can
be obtained.
The towns interested IN baseball
on the Eastern Shore are Pocomoke
city. Crisheld. Princess Anne, Cam
bridge, Parksley. Berlin and Sails
bury. All had live-wire mines on the
diamond last year. and the games
played attracted visitors from all
parts OF the Eastern shore
Pocomoke City has appeared in
print before in connection with
baseball, for that place has contrib
uted some Of the greatest known
s.ars to the major leagues. ]. Frank
lin Baker, the home-run hitter,
played with the Pocomoke team
some years ago. when the team Of
that place was a wonder.
Buck Herzog is another star who
made his way from the bushes to
the majors by playing on Eastern
Shore teams. There are a number
OF others who also served their ap-
prenticeships on one OF the teams
representing one OF the Maryland
towns.
From present indications there
will be an eight-team circuit in the
field next year in the Eastern shore
League. One feature OF a league for
the Eastern Shore is that there are
such fine roads in that section that
the jumps from one town TO another
can be made without difficulty.
