In making my All-America selec- tions for 1926 l have been guided by the judgment of 70 of the leading coaches of the United States, hailing from all sections of the country. Perhaps as many officials have of- fered words of wisdom.
 At the ends I have named Ooster- baan of Michigan and Wislett of Alabama. While Oosterbaan didn't play up to his high standard before eastern critics in the game with the Navy, he is a brilliant end. just as good as last season. when he was named for the same position.
 Winslett of Alabama is my choice. He is a mighty versatile chap who has alternated at end and full He is a most skillfu end. wonderful patsscr, and can hit the line with the sting of Joesting of Minnesota.
 Hanson of Syracuse, Shipkey of Stanford. Broda of Brown and Bac- chus of Missouri were four other great wingmen. who by many other experts probably will be rated higher than the two players I selected for my ends.
 Boeringer of Notre Dame is placed at center with Butler of Pennsylvania a mighty close second. Klein Of Ohio State Is placed on the third team.
 Captain Wickhorst of the Navy is a great tackle. There is no getting away from him. He played mar vicious game against the Army in the final tilt of the season.
 9 The otheS tackle Is more or less debatable. have given it to John son. of Northwestern, whom l re- gard as the best tackle in the Big Ten. Northwestern tied Michigan for Western Conference champion ship and the line play of Johnson was big factor.
 Nelson of Iowa probably is John sons equal, but being on losing team his work did not show to the of the Northwestern tackle.
 For my guards I have selected Connaughton, the "Man- Mountain" of Georgetown, and Shively of H. linois. Most of the experts will agree on the Georgetown star. but there is sure to be much difference of opinion on Shively.
 He Is one of the greatest guards have ever seen in action" was the comment of Coach Bob Zuppke of Illinois as to Shively. and take 1t from me, "Zupp" has developed many a good guard.
 In the Ohio State-Illinois game, Hess perhaps outplayed Shively a rifle, but on the years play would say Shively has done the better work. While Hes, has played well, m the two games I saw him play 1t 1idn't seem as If he was up to last years high mark
 Friedman and Joestring are cinch bets for two of the backfield posi- lions. Friedman has been the domi- nant factor in Michigan's success, while Joesting at full has been practically unstoppable all season.
 Kaer of Southern California and Mike Wilson of Lafayette are placed 1t the two halfback positions. Kaer 1as been the coast sensation Of the year in football while Mike Wilson s the leading point scorer of the 2ast, the star of Lafayette's unde- eated eleven.
 Choosing between Moon Baker Wilcox and Wilson of Lafayette Is merely tossup, but not desiring to lave my backfield top heavy with Big Ten stars, Friedman and Joes- ing already having been named lave given Wilson the preference.
 If I were a coach, any one of the hree teams that have named, with the assistance of the game's eading coaches and officials. would uit me.

 The Stanley Works quintet went down before the speedy attack of the champion r. &a F. continuation. The winners put every effort they had into the game in the first half and 1t was really in this frame that they scored the bulk of their points while the guards held the Stanley Workers almost help ess.
 At first, the Corbin team started out 10 win the game on fouls. The Buttmakers played a sterling guard ing game but after short time. the Corbinites broke through for SCOT ing rallies. "Micky" Luke was the entire thing as far as hooping the basket was concerned, He slapped in six field goals in the first half and Joe Jasper made one for the total double decker points Of the team Murphy and Hoist staged q pretty battle all their own and the Stanley Works man got two long shots while his opponent went scoreless from the field. Hoist, however made up for this by his excellent foul shooting. sending in five out of six shots from the free throw line. The Stanley Works got three field bas- kets off the hop making it six and remained there until the half ended with Corbins having 24.
 In the second frame. Johnny Grobsteln returned 70 the game and immediately celebrated by getting a pretty shot through the hoop. He got another just like 1t later in the game. The two teams played evenly In this frame, each getting 22 points

Just when she was on the point of
