 rirlline all-star football teams VIII he all tnc rage for the next i@" weeks. Tn every section of the country the experts in that partlcu- lar locality will select teams bearing on certain groups of colleges.
 Teams from the Big Ten, the East the Missouri Valley. the Pacific Coast, the South, the Southwest and so on down the iins will be done by the woll-kaown authoritlcs in each section.
 These ai-star teams are more or less tho outgrowth of Walter Camp s original All-Am4rica elc'ens.
 It Is also customary for many Of the grid experts to do an AIJ- America team. Some of these teams may have more merit than the one selected by th9 iiIustuous Mr. Camp. Yet IL must be admitted that none command the same stand- ing since they are limitations, not the original.
 At one time Mir, Camps teams were made up entirely ot Ialc, liar yard and Princeton players, Qt late years. however, 1t has been gen erslly admitted that they do play good football west of Pittsburgh.
 1t Is some job 10 pick an ail-staI tootbau team. There are many reasons.
 In the first place it is impossible to see more than a dozen worth while games during the football season.
 If a different set Of teams were seen in action ln each game. fl would be impossible to pass oplnior on more than 4 of them
 It has been figured that thora arf In the neighborbood O. -Q5 malol colleges in the nlted States, Some experts figure that there are many more than that.
 Thus 1t IS d very easy mater tC see what d difficult job lt IS 'o re. lect an Alt-AmerIca t.am from sal zoo colleges, whom at best i, Is m. possible 10 soa more than 24 ol about one-nghrl of them play.
 The value Of such a tsan IS therefore, dac1e!y m"s'.o.aO.a The abjIiry Of many players Is sc nearly eque. that 10 make d prater ance is in many cascs very Eo.mr
