KENNEL AND FIELD
Geo. III. KernOdle

Local fanciers extend to Mr.. and
Mrs. r. G. Birney their most sim
cere sympathy in the loss of nine
valuable Boston terriers in a disas-
trous fire which visited the Aspin
Hill Kennels recently. Mrs. Birney
suffered several burns in an at
tempt to save some of the dogs and
in moving others out of danger. She
did not know until after the fire was
extinguished that five of the dogs
were in the building which burned.
Among these were Blinkintino, her
promising young stud dog; Lady Huff.
a little sister of Champion Aspin Hill
Flapper, and three promising puppies
which she had retained for competi-
ton in the Winter shows.
The building was entirely protect
ed by insurance, but the dogs lost
will probably take years to replace
and will seriously affect the breed
ing program at Aspin Hill.
The following note comes from F. L.
Tetreault's Clarendon kennel of
shepherds:

GREAT COACHING TRIO
TO PICK STAR ELEVEN

STANFORD. Calf, November "a
CP9.--Glenn Pop) Warner, Stanford
coach and one of the leading foot ball
authorities of the country. has left
for New York at the request Of Knute
Rockne, Notre Dame coach, and Tad
Jones of Yale. with whom he will go
into secret conference in the Eastern
city to choose an all-American team
for 1925.
II am going to New York to con-
fer with Jones and Rockne on an all
American team and for no other pur-
pose" Warner said.
II have felt in recent years that
one man could no longer name an
all-star team for the entire United
States. In base ball you have about
500 players in the major leagues. In
foot ball today there are thousands Of
players of major caliber, Last year
I collaborated with Rockne and Jones
and our joint team apparently met
with widespread favor. l have seen
most of the best players on the Pa
cific Coast this year. Rockne has seen
the best in the Middle West and Jones
has watched the outstanding Eastern
players. Those we have not seen we
know about by direct evidence.
when l meet Jones and Rockne
we will give every section and every
player a run for his money, regard

more than once, during the last five
years of his life, this job of selecting
an all-America team was growing
more and more difficult because Of the
great number of good foot ball men
in America.
II feel that there can be no plan of
selecting an all-America team that
would do justice to all the boys in all
sections of the United States today.
Il think it will be all right
to attempt to select an all-con.

In returning kick-offs the teams
that return them for big gains
and frequently free the runners for
touchdowns invariably have their
players making the interferers
leave their feet and roll under the
opponents who are coming down
the field to make the tackle. That
Is the way Illinois returns a kick
off and is the main reason for
Grange running some of them
back for touchdowns.
Other teams seem to think they
can return kick-offs by having
their interference bump the tack

their shoulders, as in the lower

fective method, as 1t permits the

Upsets Unprecedented.
The unprecedented string of upsets
that has marked the Eastern foot ball
season, now drawing to its close, also
has brought about a shake-up in team
ranking which has no parallel in the
games annals.
Out of the list of major and minor col
lege eleVens alike, Dartmouth stands
alone as the only combination neither
defeated nor tied, holding a position in
striking contrast to many other hith-
erto top-ranking outfits.
Where in former seasons it has not
been uncommon to have at least a
half dozen teams finish their seasons
unbeaten. or with perhaps only a tie
to mar their record, statistics show
that only three eleVens altogether
have escaped defeat in the East.
Colgate, the only major rival OF
Dartmouth, has a tie with Lafayette
on its record, while little St. Lawrence
shows a similar slate.
Teams which in past years have
often led the way, such as Penn State
and Harvard, show as many as three
defeats, while Pennsylvania and Yale,
which shared the front ranks with
Dartmouth only a year ago. each has
been downed twice.
