(BI BILLY ENANS)


 Picking an all-star team is merely matter of opinion. Even the games greatest coaches differ wide ly in their selection of players.
 In football, as in any other sport, even the stars have their bad days. Should a coach sec some highly touted athlete perform poorly against his team, it is only natural he would figure said player wasn't living up to advance notices and ac- cordingly would leave him 0. his all-star choice.
 In picking any All-Bty -e- s@,ec- ton Of 1927 l have had -s= Ta-y valuable assistance Of the ccac-z- ' staffs of nine of the institutions 'Ea' comprise the Western Conference circuit.
 Only one player, Oosterbaan, was the unanimous choice of the various coaching staffs. He was generally recognized as the best end in the | West.
 Joesting of Michigan received eight of the nine votes Strangely enough the one that failed to vote for Joesting didn't even give him second team consideration.
 At all other positions, with the eX- ception of one of the ends and ] quarterbacks, the men named en- joycd a fairly comfortable margin
 There was a wide difference of opinion as to who should be Ooster- | baan's running mate. While the 1 Michigan end received the unani- mous vote of the. wise men, five other players were named to play the opposite wing. Of these Fisher of Northwestern received three votes while Haycraft of Minnesota and Cameron of Wisconsin each got two.
 Since there is little or no differ | cnce between the modern backticld players, many of the coaching staffs juggled the players to suit theil | fancy ill naming a quarterback Almquist of Minnesota getting the edge over Crofoot of Wisconsin fol l llldL pOSIlloll.
 Difficulty was found in agreeing on the halfback positions. but tho consensus showed that Gilbert O. Michigan and Welch of Purdue wert best liked. It is rather interesting to note that of the four halfback! named on the first and second 1 teams, Purdue was honored witt two of them, the brilliant and re liable Captain Wilcox and the sen satioral Welch, who did his bes stuff in Purdue's decisive defeat O Harvard.
 Lewis of Northwestern. despite tn, fact that he has been handicapped all season because of injuries, Wa ranked next to Joesting with Hum bert of Illinois and Armi of low; receiving favorable consideration.
 AS concrete illustration of wha a tough job it is to pick an all-sta team, no one staff of coaches name' the consensus selection. The bes showing was made by one of tn coaches. who named in his first tean lineup nine of the eleven player selected in the consensus.

The alumni football team, since
 it's showing in a ysCrimmage at Me

 both the line and the backfield are

 The showing of Johnny Grip, Fordham backfield star and his pas scs to "Toots' Politis, Fordham end, give promise of making things in

RISK0 BEATS PAULIN0
Cleveland Baker Boy SIugs and Bat tcrs Spanish Woodchopper in Sa- wage Bout.

New York. Nov 26 LP--The ranks of the foremost heavyweight contenders boasted new and to- tally unexpected figure today in Johnny Risko, baker boy from Cleveland.
 Meeting Pauline Uzcudun, rugged Basque champion of Spain, at his own game the India Rubber man" of the prize ring outslugged and bat tered the invader last night in as savage and fierce q ten round heavyweight contest as Madison Square Garden has ever seen.
 With the ods all against him, Ris- ko punched out victory that carried the right to meet the winner of the Tom Heeney-Jack Sharkey match here next month. Only Jack Demp- sey stands between the survivor of that fray and a shot at Gene Tun- ney's heavyweight crown in the plans Tex Rickard has formulated.
 In whipping the Spaniard. Risko brought to an end Paulinos victory string that included wins over Knute Hansen, Harry Wills. and Tom HeeneY. Pauline weighed 19S pounds six more than Risko.

ST. MATHS STILL
 LEADING LEAGUE
Top Church BoWlers by Margin
 Of Two Pins in Standing

Despite a encouragement of the lnter-ChurCh bowling league stand ing made necessary by the voiding of several forfeitures against the F.. E. C. Army and Bach Male chorus, the St. Matthew's German lutherans continue to top the cir cult by d two-pin margin. Although six losses previously chalked against the Army were removed by the board of managers Monday night because the teams non-appearance was due to lack of notification re- garding the league, the team ran into difficulties in its match with the First Lutherans and dropped two strings, ending its winning streak. Meanwhile the St. Matts moved serenely on by taking the odd game from the Navy. The South church won twice from the Bach chorus, and the Orchestra took forfeit from the Stanley Memorial team. No records were approached. The original forfeits were due to
 
 on the first two nights of play and that of the Bach chorus on the opening night. It was learned that these nappearanceS were caused by the fact that the sponsoring or ganizations had not been notified of the schedule before those dates. and the managers threw out the games. The scores made in those matches will stand.
 The league schedule has been shifted ahead one week and on next Monday night three matches will be rolled to play off the discarded for felture. The Army will roll the South church. the First Lutherans will meet the Orchestra, and the Bach chorus will face the St. Matts. The revised standing and records:

 The Renaissance Five. champion colored basketball team of the world, of Harlem, x. r.. considered one of the greatest court attractions available in these parts, will appear at the Stanley Arena on Church street tonight against the New Brit ain basketball team, the local entry in the Connecticut State Basketball league.
 Fans who saw the New York team In action last season in their two appehrances against the state cham pion National Guards, will remem- Der the sensational team play and shooting ability displayed. Although the Guards at that time were rated among the best teams in Connecti- cut, so clear was the superiority Of the visitors over the locals that they seemed to only toy with the New Britain team in the game.
 The New Britain team will make an especial effort tonight to win be- cause the players realize that a vic- tory over the Renaissance Five will be real feather in the teams cap. Because of this wish, q real battle Is in store when the two teams clash.
 The New York crew carries the same squad that last year proved to be the sensation of the entire sea. son. The two forwards, fast floor workers and almost sure shots for the basket, pair up with the same lanky center while the guards, who are themselves crack shots and players. will occupy the same posi- tions.
 New Britains regular lineup will start the game. Sloman and Ru- bernstein will get in at forwards wi:h Zakzewski at center and Captain "Butsy'" Sturms and Leary at guards. Kilduff. Hoist and Frank Cassidy will form the reserve ma, terial for the home club.
 The game will be started at 9 o'clock and will follow the prclim- mary to be played. Dick Dillon will referee.

 The All-New Britain football team twill meet the Hartford Giants to- morrow afternoon at o'clock at Memorial field in Willow Brook park in the second game of a series to settle the professional championship of the state. The two teams me. last week and Hartford took the verdict by q 3 to score. The local eleven wont through spirited workout last night at Will low Brook park and every detail in the changes in formations anc sig nals was perfected under the s1pcr- vision of Coach Dave Dunn. The team worked so smoothly that Coach Dunn predicted that Hartford would face an entirely different lineup :un- day than it did last week end.
 New Britain will throw its enire strength into fast offensive S'n- day afternoon. It is now believed that the Giants, through their unG- pected aerial attack of last Sunda, got the jump on the locals that rea- ly won the game and a strict guar will be taken against this tomorrow so that no play will be pulled with out New Britain having a defense against it.
 The Giants have an especially strong lineup with one or two of the places in the team strengthened. Showing surprising strength against a team considered it's peer in last Sundays game, the Capital City eleven breezed through winner by the score of 13 10 0. The New Brit ain team. man for man, is deter mined to reverse the verdict sunday afternoon.
 The officials for the game will br the same as last week. William Halloran of Providence, F. l., q member of the National Football league staff of officials. will be ref cree: "kecll' Parker of this city will be umpire and A.

familiar with his subject and spoke as one having
authority. he condemned the agitation now going
on in the United States having for its purpose
Philippine independence, stating that those who
wanted to free the Philippines were short-haired

islanders who stood for a separate republic were
irresponsible agitators ambitious for office The
mass OF the people either in the United States or
the Philippines cared little about the independence

THE RED FLAG

Oh. many banners were unfurled
For glory conquest in the world.
And many armies fought and bled
Around their flags, and many fled
And trailed' their banners in the dust
Where guns and sabres turn to rust.
But there Is one bold banner still
To stir the blood and always thrill
The heart with loftier desire,
hammer Haunting ike fire
The workers and peasants flag
OF crimson floats and ne'er shall lag
Until al classes have an end
And all the lords of earth shall bend
Their knees before the throne of man.
And still this flag shall lead the van
To some more lofty, shining goal
Where highest striyings of the soul
Shall be fulfilled. Before my eyes
This banner fills the sunset skies
And soon new and crimson dawn
Shall see all flags save this flag gone!

There was time when l could quote
Full many poets wildwood note,
Before my sorrows thick and fast,
Came pouring down with chilly blast,
And nipt the blossom of my brain,
And chased the muse with all her train.
It's prices that Pm quoting now,
Reality has me in tow;
It's leading me know not where,
To look ahead | do not dare
The frigidaire demands give
My all for them that they may live.

chairstic Congress. recently held in
this country at Chicago. is to be dis
played upon the screen at the Wash
ington Auditorium in this city until

bishop Michael j. Curley of Baltimore.
The record is an eight-reel moving
picture Of perhaps one of the most
notable religious events of the CEN
fury, made by the Fox Film Corpora
ton and sponsored by his eminence
Cardinal Mundelein.
It's pictorial history begins with the
departure from Rome of the papal
legate, Cardinal Bonzano, and the en-
thusiastic reception accorded him un-
til he reached his destination, espe-
cially in the city of New York, where
an elaborate official welcome was ten
dered by church and civic officials.
The views of the various happen.
ings Of the congress in all its rami-
fications are faithfully and authenti-
cally pictured, including pageants,
parades and religious services incident
to the great event There are even
excellent airplane views of the inn
mense host of pilgrims on the grounds
at Mundelein, where, it is stated, Car

audience ever assembled"
