WEST IS SUPREME OVER EAST TEAMS
Notre Dame Stands Out High
 Above All Other EleYenS

New York, Dec. ] (UP) - Sat- urday's football games, in addition
 to proving that the current Notre
 Dame eleven is just about the smoothest article seen in these
 United States in many a year. cleared away any doubt that might
 have existed regarding the middle and far wests's supremacy over the east.
 The east, once the center of the
 football world, sent five teams, in
 cludng it's two best, against the
 middle and far west on Saturday and was handed five defeats for its
 what the boys sometimes jokingly refer to as unanimous. Army and Dartmouth. both undefeated Tn their own section were the two east ern leaders to go down. Army bowed to Notre Dame and Dartmouth to Stanford. Notre Danes victory stamped the Irish as real champions,
 for champions, in any field of sport.
 pay no attention to the weather. The frozen turf of Soldiers field was not best suited to Notre Danes fast and shifty attack, but the Irish went ahead and played their game. The other three eastern losers Villanova, Temple and Georgetown were not leaders in their sections, but they were representatives Of thls side of the country. Nillanova was defeated by Washington State Is to
 0. Temple fell 49 to 20 before Drake, land Georgetown was a l2 to 0 loser to Detroit.
 Of the three, Nillanova deserves the most credit. Outweighed ten or IS pounds to the man, and opposed by the best team on the Pacific coast, the Philadelphians waged a gallant battle. On more than one oc- casion. the light Villanova line. deep
 in it's own territory, repulsed the big coast eleven.
 Western Maryland's Green Ter TOTS. undefeated since 1928, whipped Muhlenberg 25 to 0; Vanderbilt
 trimmed Maryland 22 to '; Texas Christian defeated Southern Metho- dist IS to 0, and Holy Cross defeated Boston College 10 0 in Saturday s other feature games.
 Holy Cross win marked the first
 time that school had defeated Bos-
 ton College in six years.

Boston, Dec. 1 [UP)-The Boston Post today named as it's All-Amer- iea 1880 football team knuta Rockne's II Notre Dame regulars.
 Justifying the Posts selection, Bill Cunningham, who picked the team, said:
 Why bother with possibilities that could never be brought to trial, and combinations entirely theoreti cal. when there exists a living team that in actual match contests has proved it's sensational but sound and hard boiled superiority over the toughest teams in three quarters Of the football compass, and in that proving has shown beyond the whisper of doubt that upon at least two Of those days no team in the fourth quarter could have given Ii more than a temporary argument?

No. 10-Camp Prophesies
 By ALAN GOULD Associated Press Sports Editor)

The return or pre-war football stars such as Belford West Of Col gate and Chick Harley of Ohio State in addition to the sensational rise Of a number Of smaller college teams such as Centres Praying Colonels, v contributed in the postwar year of 1919 to the selection Of one of the great All-America elcvens of all time.
 Walter Camp, seasoned by 30 years in knowledge of the games great and near-great labeled his choices the most powerful aggre- cation Of players that has been on the gridiron for a long time"
 Eleven years have not dimmed tho ustre Of this collection. West and Henry, the Washington X Jef- fcrson giant rank as all-timc AL America tackles. A backfield with McMillin. Casey, Harley and Rogers sounds like a coach's dream, Most Of the men named on Camps first team since have added to their fame as coaches.
 Centre had yet to crown it's fame by beating Harvard as it did in 1921, but the little Kentucky college team coached by Uncle Charley" Moran sprang to fame by beating West Virginia, the conqueror Of a strong Princeton eleven.
 
 The shift. then as now, was Il source Of considerable dehate. The famous Minnesota shift" of pre-war vintage was revived by the Gophers, who were first taught this offensive maneuver by Dr. H. L. Williams.
 knute Rockne had great Notre Dame team, with q super-star rising to fame in George Gipp, an All America in 1920, but the Rock" had yet 10 develop what has become identified as the Notre Dame sys- tenn, featured by q backfeld shift. Camp wrote:
 "The unbalanced lnc-that is. more men on one side Of the center than on the other-was the rule rather than the exception in 1919. The direct pass 10 q backfnld man, rather than through the hands of the quarterback. was used more and more. Many Of the old d-time tricks, rcvamped somewhat, were brought out and good gains were at times made with them. The most nota ble of these was the fake forward pass, in which q. back holds the ball as if to forward pass. when a man coming behind the passer takes the ball out Of his hands and runs.
 The forward pass was developed d much more largely than ever before and continued it's progress toward real incorporation in the form of a running attack.
 For time this forward pass was th resort of q defeated team to recoup it's falling fortunes in the last few moments of the game by throwing the, ball widely about in the hope that some pass might come off. Today il is d part of the offensive of every first class team.'
 Camps diagnosis was prophetic of remarkable developments. Notre Danes 1919 team was undefeated

With neither team able to develop

With neither team able to develop punch enough to cross the opposing goal line, the New Britain Blues and the Waterbury Bearcats, two semi- pro football com binations cham pions of their home cities, battled at Memorial Field in Willow Brook park yesterday to scoreless tie. Only once, in the second frame, did either team threaten to score. In this period, the Bearcats claWed their way to the Blues five yard line but they were held there on downs, unable to get past the final stripe for a score. Following this. Quarti made the feature run of the day with 45 yard dash around the end. He was forced out of bounds at the 50-yard mark. Three passes followed out none of them was successful.
 The high wind that swept the held played havoc with the punters on both teams. Placed kicks went cv- erywhere except where they were supposed to go and it was hazard ous piece Of business for the safety men to attempt to catch the ball and run.
 The contest finally developed into line bucking exhibition while for ward pases were attempted on fourth downs in blaze of punts. The game was devoid of sensations, the crowd was slim and the players were none too ambitious.
 This game ended the season Tor the Blues. The results of the cam paign were a city championship re- gained, state prestige strengthened and a season made fairly successful. The summary:
