lob NOW IS TO PICK
SUCCESSOR TO CAMP

CHICAGO, Nov. 4.-P)-Who
shall select this years all-American
football team to replace that of the
late Walter Camp, is a question being
agitated here.
1t is admitted that there are doz-
en- well-qualified critics who will
supply lists. But none will have be-
hind them the tradition and more or
less recognized authority of the Camp
selections.
The Chicago Herald and Examiner
today makes two suggestions editorial
ly.
One is that the all-Americans now
out of college vote in new group each
year. The newspaper calls the plan
interesting but cumbersome.
The other suggestions advanced
Alfonso Stagg, for 33 years coach at
the University of Chicago and a prod
uct of Eastern football.
As the man oldest in active football
service in the country, the newspaper
thinks his findings would carry weight
like those of Camps.

PAL MORAN KNOCKED
OUT BY CALLAHAN,
NEW COAST PHENOM

LOS ANGELES, Nov. 4.-"Mushy "
Callahan, local lightweight, knocked
out Pal Moran of New Orleans in the
third round of a scheduled 10-round
bout at Doyles' Vernon Arena last
night.
Callahan kept his long left constant
ly in Moran's face and never allowed
the New Orleans battler to get set.
A left to the jaw followed by hard
right to the same spot towards the
shank of the third round put Moran
down for the count.
Moran achieved considerable fame
in the last two years in the East and
was a slight favorite over Callahan,
who is the new sensation of coast
lightweights.

Henderson Orders Game;
D. Frazier Firm ~
Against 1t. .

The scrapping little Alamo Heights
Mules stand a chance Of passing out
Of the state Glass B football race
without being defeated.
Secretary Roy B. Henderson of the
State Interscholastic League Wednes.
day morning definitely ordered Coach
Frazier's eleven either to meet Som
erset High before tine end of this week
in q semi-final contest for the District
Is championship or produce evidence
Of ineligibility on the Somerset squad
which would make the game unneces-
sary.
WOULD MEAN FORFEIT
Failing to do either, Alamo Heights
will automatically forfeit its claim to
further recognition in the State race,
Mr.. Henderson said, while Somerset
High will advance into the district
finals against the winner Of the Edna
Floresville battle scheduled at York
town Friday.
When informed Of Mr.. Henderson
decision, Coach Frazier said he was
undecided as to his future course, but
was emphatic on one point-that his
team would not play Somerset High
school.
SUSPECTS SOMERSET
Coach Frazier is not only aligned
against Somerset because of an UNI
pleasant and widely advertised Incl
dent which befell him while a spec
tator at the Somerset Yorktown game
last season, but also says he is of the
opinion that town the size of Som
erset "could not produce a football
team averaging in the neighborhood of
ITO pounds without straining its ma
tural resources"
Furthermore, the Heights coach
points out, Somerset has not actually
won its necessary four high school
games, but has received several for
feits in order to attain that number
of victories.
One thing is certain, however. I'm
less Coach Frazier produces substan-
tisl evidence of the ineligibility of the
Somerset eleven, he will have TO 20
through with the game or forfeit.

Be GASSER
MANAGER

SHREVEPORT, La, Nov. A.
The Shreveport baseball club of the
Texas League will have a new mana
ger next summer, and he'll be a play
ing manager.
Bob Tarleton, business manager, who
hires and fires the Shreveport perform
ers, has admitted as much.
sgd Smith, who came out OF long
retirement to serve as a sort of Moses
to lead the children of Shreveport out
of the Egypt of defeat, will drop back
into retirement, turning over the reins
to some less portly, spryer party who
can take his turn at bat and on the
field with the rest of the hired hands.
No dissatisfaction was expressed
with Smiths work as manager. He is
very popular in Shreveport, but the
fans, Tarleton says, demand a play
ing manager.
Tarleton is suspected OF having
"Tex' Wisterzil his third-baseman, IN
mind for the managerial toga.
George (Tex) Wisterzil. who lives
in San Antonio, has not been informed
that he is under consideration for the
post of Shreveport manager. However
"Tex" is in receptive mood and would
like to manage a club next summer.
For the time being, he can't be con-
cerned with baseball problems, though
He is getting ready for an extended
hunting trip the middle of this month

GEORGIA PEACHES
YIELD $4,000, 900
SEASON ONE OF BEST IN THE
STATES HISTORY. GROW
ERS AIM AT QUALITY.

MACON, Ga.-Growers of Georgia
will realize $S,O00,000 from this years
peach crop, according to w. c. Bew-
ley, general manager Of the Georgia
Peach Growers Exchange, making
this one Of the best seasons in the his
tory of peach production in the state.
liberia and Hale peaches in this
section are moving now and top prices
are being received. Big shipments are
expected to end the last of this week.
Smaller shipments of late varieties will
continue for several weeks.
Total shipments from Georgia this
year will be between l0,500 and H.
900 carloads smaller number than
the record crop of last season, but,
to compensate this, the fruit is OF bet
ter quality, the ripening season has
been over longer period of time and
better prices have been received.
A large part of the success this sea-
son has been due to the efficient oper-
alton of the exchange, which has SUI
pervised picking and packing to pre-
vent the shipment of inferior fruit and
to standardize packs, as well as re-
routing shipments in such manner
as to place the fruit on the best mark
ct each day.
Growers have made money this sea-
son-many of them more money than
in the banner season of 1921, but pres
ent indications are that there will be
no incease in the number OF trees
planted. General Manager Bewley Is
urging less expansion in orchards and
more attention to the quality of the
fruit.
The close of the season finds Geor-
gia peach growers well satisfied, and
with money in the bank following the
most successful peach crop in the last
five years.
