FOOTBALL HOLDS
 ALL ESSENTIALS
Popularity Is Increasing, Says Rules Committee
 Secretary

NEW YORK, Dec. 30.-Football to- day contains practically every element necessary to the highest type of sport, in the opinion of F. K. Hall of New York, chairman of the American inter- collegiate football rules committee, ex- pressed in his annual report today to the national intercollegiate association.
 On the whole, MT. Hall says, the re. suits from changes made in the rules of 1924 have been gratifying, but the com mittee undoubtely will consider return ing the point of kickoff to the 4O=yard line to eliminate the large number of touchbacks which occurred during the past season and at the same time re- turning to the game one of its most thrilling plays, the run-back of kick offs.
 Every year since the rules have been in substantially their present form, '' the report says, ''the game has in creased in popularity and in its possi- bilities. Each year it seems as if the interest in the game had reached a maximum and the next year shows even greater interest than before. I am sat isfied that the reason for this is found in the fact that the game contains prac- tically every element essential to the highest type of sport"

The Umpire
BY H. G. SALSINCERN

wv ALTER CAMPS annual all W American selections form a well
 w come climax to the deluge of mythical teams that have flooded the newspapers and weeklies for the last six weeks. After all, there is but one mythical team that brings more than few minutes attention and that is the one selected annually by MT. Camp.
 The all-America of Walter Camp Is a national institution. It is the parent of all the all-star selections that we get in baseball, basketball, soccer and other sports. Mir. Camp is the father of the idea and while he has thousands of imi- tators, he remains as the one recognized authority. His annual contribution is the most important in football litera- ture. He stands as the supreme court of the game and his verdict is the final judgment.
 There have been frequent criticisms. There will continue to be. Certain dis appointments are bound to be developed by every all-America team. No selec- tion can ever be perfect and all are open to criticism, but the fact remains that Mir. Camp comes nearer to perfec- tion than any other man.
 One reason for the weight of Mir. Camps teams is that they are not the choice of Mir. Camp alone. He simply sits in final judgment. His teams are selections based on the observation of more than 200 trained experts. Most of these experts consult others and add their opinions. Each season MT. Camp receives full aud confidential reports
The Birmingham age-herald., 1924-12-31

on practically all players of marked ability. By comparing the various opinions, checking and re-checking, he arrives at his final conclusions.
 Selecting an all-America football eleven this year was difficult task. There were fewer outstanding players than in previous years. Of the thou sands that played football during the 1924 season not more than two were nationally recognized as players that stood alone. All were agreed that Red" Grange was again the best back of the year and opinion seemed fairly unani- nous that Stuhldreher was the best quarterback the game has developed in a stretch of seasons. Opinion was di- vided over the other nine positions.
 Not one player in the line was na- tionally discussed, but that is natural, as the lineman rarely gets into the headlines. This year there was even a lack of sectional fame clinging to any of the forwards. Post-season glory came to Garbisch, of the Army, but only because he kicked four field goals that enabled Army to beat Navy 12 to o.
 Consider Slaughter of Michigan, whom Mir. Camp places at guard. There was not much printed about Slaughter, but he was still great guard. He will be recognized as one of the greatest the middle west has seen. When the coaches of the Western conference were asked to cast a secret ballot at the close of the season, nine of the 10 head tutors declared Slaughter the best lineman of 1924. The reason the tenth coach did

ALBANY, Ga, Dec. 30.-(SpeciaD- Albany Y. NJ. c. A. defeated the Bir- mingham Athletic club Tuesday night in the best game of basketball played here this season to date. The score was 34 to 27, and the game was closely but cleanly contested throughout.
 Birmingham jumped into the lead early in the game through a greater ability to register free throws and at one time was leading by a margin of 10 to ?. The game had been in pro gress 14h minutes before Albany reg istered field goal, so badly was the local team missing both free throws and field attempts. A rally during the last few minutes of the opening half sent Albany ahead by three points be- fore the halfway mark.
 In the second half Albany ran up what appeared to be a safe lead and was taking it easy when Birmingham sprang an offensive built around Fred Hahn that sent the visitors within three points of tying the score before Albany cut loose again and Davis and Whiting made goals that left Albany's lead safely intact.
 Despite a heavy downpour of rain which had continued all day and was in progress during the game large crowd of spectators saw the game.

JOHNSON TO BE. OFFER OF HELP Derrill Pratt COnfers With Business Men
 Over Plan
lRY Associated PreSsl

ANN ARBOR, Mich, Dec. 30.--A conference was held here late today, Derrill O. Pratt, former Detroit Ameri- can infielder, said tonight, regarding the proposed plan for renewing negotiations by Walter Johnson. Washington Ameri- can pitcher, for the purchase of the Oak land California club of the Pacific Coast league.
 Pratt refused to say with whom he conferred but admitted they were two men from out of town. He said the conference was in the interest of "get- ting conditions back where they were when Johnson held an option" on the Oakland club some weeks ago.
 As far as known R.. T. Dobson, ST., wealthy Ann Arbor resident who vir- tually admitted today he was interested in the deal, did not attend the confer ence but his son, R. T. Dobson, Jr., had a long talk with Pratt following the lat ter's conversation with the men from out of town.
 Pratt asserted tonight he was inter- ested in the deal only through his friendship for Walter Johnson"
 Although those interested in the deal refused to make any definite statements on the matter pending word from John son, it was understood from seemingly reliable sources that Johnson had been offered approximately $400,O00, under certain conditions, provided he desired to use it toward the purchase of the Oakland club A large part of this, 1t was intimated, would be furnished by Dobson.

Along with nine other colleges over the country, Howard college was ad- mitted into the National College Athletic association at it's meeting in New York Tuesday, according to dis patches received by The Age-Herald Tuesday night.
 Dr. Dawson, president of the college, and Dr. Ives, chairman of the athletic committee at the local institution, did not know of the admittance of Howard to the collegiate body, and were well pleased when informed of the Associa- tion's action.
 Howard was one of two colleges in the south to be admitted into the asso- citation, which was quite an honor for the local institution.

LOBERT CLAIMS
 HIS NOSE LARGE

CHICAGO, Dec. 30,-Discussing the speed on bases of Hans Lobert, Dave Bancroft, manager of the Boston Braves, at the Chicago baseball meet ing told how Lobert once used some other part of his anatomy to claim safety at home plate. In this case Lobert used his prominent nose.
 During transforming trip, Bancroft said, LObeft agreed as joke to race a mustang around the bases, the pony being driven from the outside. Lobert, by making the turns faster, led when rounding third base, but the pony caught up and at the home plate the judge of the race called "the pony wins by nose"
 "How can that be, judge?" Lobert exclaimed, Look at mine."

Mike McTigue, who still retains the world light heavyweight title by vir- tue of a judicious sidestepping of all good and second rate men within a couple of classes of himself. has left New York for Summit, N. J., to train for his bout January 7 with Mickey Walker, welterweight champion.

not pick him was because he had not seen him play.
 Slaughter, big and strong. quick, had a faster charge than nine out of 10 guards in the game. He had range. No lineman was quicker to size up the of fense, none better at breaking up for ward passes. He was always around on end runs. He was quick to diagnose plays and constantly went out of posi- ton. On defense no ground was gained through him. He was exceptionally good in general play besides his own po- sition play. He was intelligent and az gressive and an able kicker, although seldom called upon to kick. With these qualifications that set him apatt from others, Slaughter still lacked tbe pub licity afforded an ordinary back. But that is the fate of the men in the line.
 Horrell, whom Mir. Camp places at the other guard. is the California center. He was the best lineman of the year on the far coast. although his fame did not spread over the east and south. McGin- ley of Pennsylvania and Weir of Ne braska were undoubtedly the best tackles of the year, but little was printed about them.
 The enuS that MT. Oamp plcheu arc well known. for ends, like backs, do their work in the open and share in the credit" columns. The public knows them well. Bjorkman of Dartmouth and Berry of Lafayette; Wakefield of Vanderbilt and Lawson of Stanford Mahaney of Holy Cross and Frazer of West Point, picked in that order, were all well established.
 Two of the backs were all-America certainties. They have been mentioned. The other two positions were open with wide choice. Mir Camp did we'll in selecting Koppisch of Columbia at the other half and Hazel, of Rutgers at full. Kappisch has starred for Columbia through three seasons and was always regarded. as one of the best backs in the land. His Selection seems fitting reward for a brilliant career. Hazel, picked last season at end and who, with Grange, gets the distinetion of being picked two years in succession, was gen erally recognized this sehson as an out standing player, although he did not become established last year until after Mir. Camp selected him as one of the ends on his 1923 eleven. 1jss.r'-

 "We are going into the game not in the best of shape" he explained. "Our regular ends and first call tackle are out with injuries We have encoun- tered miserable weather since the game with Cornell and have had practically no practice since Thanksgiving Day"
 He planned to give the boys another light workout tomorrow.
 Coach Andy Smith of California sent his men through a final easy practice today. It was mostly drill in signals with a little bunting and passing. From tonight until time for the kick off the Bears program calls for rest. The coach is guarding against stale ness."
 The stadium was soggy today from an all night rain. There was considerable apprehension regarding the weather Thursday.

PULL FOR NOTRE DAME

CHICAGO, Dec. 3O.--With less than two days remaining before the Notre Dame Stanford intersectional football game at Pasadena, the midwest is pull ing for Knute Rockne's famous -four horsemen" to ride rough shod over the Californians, thus enabling the Notre Dame eleven to finish 1924 with a rec. ord of victories from coast to coast.
 In the eyes of middle-west fans at least the game overshadows interest in the California Pennsylvania contest, to be played at Berkeley, also on New Years Day, because of the intersec- tional reputation of Notre Dame, the most widely advertised eleven in the country has ever known.
 Telegraph offices in small midwest towns and cities, usually closed on holi- days, will remain open to receive the returns. Every football enthusiast with radio, or those who know somebody with set, will have his ears glued to the head pieces, starting at 4:15 p, m., central standard time, to receive a play by play report which vii! be broadcast by WGN. the Chicago Tribune station, over special wires from the gridiron.

LOS ANGELES, Dec. 30.-Stan- ford university's football team is mark ing time, taking things easy until the afternoon of New Years Day. when it will defend western honors against the best gridiron aggregation that the east has produced this season, the Notre Dame squad. Notre Dame will arrive in Pasadena tomorrow.
 StanfOrd's three coaches were in Los Angeles swapping "reminiscences with old friends at a meeting of coaches of the Pacific coast section. None of the players were winded in last nights practice and Coach Glenn s. Pop" Warner sent them through heavy practice at the Rose Bowl this after noon. Light exercises only are on the schedule for tomorrow.
 ROCKMEN WORK HARD
 TUSCON, Ariz., Dec. 3O.-Coach Rockne yesterday put his Notre Dame football team through the stiffest work. out the men have had since they left South Bend, Ind, for Pasadena, Cal, where they play Stanford university on New Years Day.
 With Adam Walsh in his position at center and the -four horsemen" in the back field, the team scrimmaged for about two hours.
 Although the workout was confined to straight football, the general public was excluded from the field.
 The impression among the players was that Walsh's hands were in con dition to permit him to play the full game against Stanford.
