Guilty Simply of Acidity!

That persistent feeling Of tired
ness-that clouded mind-that lack
of dash and fire-that missing
punch that decides so many situa-
tions in business-are all usually
due to an acid system. Excess
acid, formed in the stomach as a
result of our unnatural eating
habits, causes acid indigestion
with gas, sourness and burning
and sets up poisonous putrefaction
in the stro-intestinal canal that
saps our strength and vitality,
taxes our nerves and pulls us
down physically and mentally.

teamwork coordination and good will on the
part of every player to do his best. When it is

is most important to have a man you can de-
pend on to send through the line for the first

We have had our An-America icemen, ALI
America janitorS, All-America marriages (per-
haps followed by resignation" from the uni
versity) All America Through college = on -
nothing year-men" and everything else in the
way of a story that an enterprising newspaper
man could discover or concoct. 1t is usually
the players from the bigger schools that get the
most favorable publicity, for they play on the
more formidable teams and probably meet
stronger opponents, and no matter if a brilliant
foot ball man Is playing a whale of game in
q smaller college, If that school isn't meeting
worthy opponents he has slight chance to be
an All-America selection.
Two seasons ago Carroll, University Of WASH
ington fullback and leading scorer of the
Pacific Coast, was considered the greatest all
round player in the game, but he didn't make
the first All-America for the reason that the
team he played on was one Of the weakest in
the history of the university. 1t is not inn
possible that Carroll was as good player as
the one chosen IN his position on the ALL
America, but it's the old story-he wasn't
playing on winning team.

As Told to
HAROLD E. JANSEN.

HE story was once told me Of the
* much sought after campus queen
who promised that she'd marry the
~ first foot ball man that made the ALL
America.
Whereupon the gridiron gladiators fought 30
waliantly for their alma mater and sweet
Adeline that four of them were chosen ON
various hrst-string teams picked by critics.
Naturally this unforeseen circumstance caused
considerable discontinue to dear Adeline, as
1Eon Is to the players. Finally 1t was decided
- relieve her of her promise to unite in wedlock
aMtth them, for she didn't wish 10 hurt any
One's feelings by marrying just one, and If she
anaSxied them all she'd be promptly arrested
Or polyandry.
This little anecdote isn't as impossible as it
Is first sounds, for it has often happened that
kWo, three and four An-America players from
Q11e university are picked by sports writer's in q
2ngle season. If a player isn't quite good
enough to land on the first team chosen by the
sports staff Of the New York Telepathy he will
At least be given mention on the second or
third team. But if this gridirOn celebrity was
EDceived rather coldly by the Telepathy's judges
Derhaps he will land on the Miracles list or
the team selected by his old friend, Joe Pickem-
good of the Chicago CyclopS, who has been
giving him break in the news all season as
4teing product Of the Windy City who Is an
outstanding success in Eastern foot ball.
k2HdE IL men CHOSEN are without o doubt the
ones who have been given the most ballyhoo.
M player is popular, consistent ground
gamer, a stalwart on the offense and defense,
and, above all, has his college paper, the daily
papers in the city where the college is located
the university publicity agent and the press
correspondents all pushing him to the fore in
the news he is bound to be one of those out in
the front in the choice for An-America
berth. Many tomato has been made to look
like peach through the pressure of publicity
And it's just as possible that as formidable
team as an Al-America could be chosen from
among the boys who land on the second and
Ehtrd teams or who don't even land at ALL but
pre- "at sea" most of the time as to what this
Aal-Anerica team-picking business is all about.

MANY good foot ball man has been elimi-
mated from An-America consideration be-
cause Of injuries that kept him out of a couple
games. Lassman Of New York University,
Marsters of Dartmouth, Nagursh Of Minnesota
and Hume of Southern Methodist were all great
players couple of seasons ago, but they failed
to make the All-America because they didn't
play in all the games of the season. Last year
Marsters again ran into the same tough luck.
He performed brilliantly against Columbia, Har-
ward and Yale but injuries received in the latter
game kept him out Of the lineup for the re-
mainder of the season. Even though he did not
complete the season, he ran up total of 108
points to stand fourth in the country last year.
But no Al-America selection for him.
Booth likewise was not named on some first
string teams. While all critics and coaches
admitted the Yale sophomore was dazzling
performer-in running, passing, kicking and
cool poiSe-injuries restrained him from playing
against Princeton, and "charleyhorse'' laid
him low in the Harvard contest. Tim Moy-
nihan, Notre Dame center, broke his leg. These
injuries tended to detract from the playing
record these men made during the season.
There were many other stellar players
throughout the country worthy of An-America
consideration. Miller of ST. Mary's who scored
131 points last season to eclipse all other play.

swarthy halfback, who garnered second place

It may be possible to pick an All-Eastern
team, and Al-Big Ten team, an All-Southern
Conference eleven and others that are sectional
with fair degree Of accuracy, but when it
comes to Al-America choices, some f1rst-string
men are sure to be left out.
So while the critic often ponders pessimisti-
cally and seriously scratches his head in order
to locate any material worthy of landing ON
his own conception Of q super All-America
team, he really should bury his lego" and view
the situation through clear glasses. There Is
bound to be dearth of material in the 500 or
