Athletics Appear to Be Class Of Loop
Connie Mack Still Regards His
ORGANIZATION as Best Club
in Baseball

Philadelphia, Dec. 21.-R Still
boasting the American Leagues bat
ting champion: A 'big three among
pitchers that won ~ games last sea-
son, and the best catcher in baseball,
the Philadelphia Athletics look for
ward to the 1882 pennant race with
no trepidation.
Connie Mack, who will celebrate his
69th birthday Dec. %, still regards his
AS as the best club in baseball.
The closeneSs and outcome of next
years competition depends upon how
much the New York Yankees and
Washington Senators improve.
While Washington seeks more
punch and the Yankees better pitch
ing, the three-time American League
champions. with one exception. will
place the same club in the field that
started winning titles in 1929. The
only new man introduced to the cast
since that time is shortstop Dibrell
Williams who replaced Joe Boley mid
way in last season and distinguished
himself in the world series.
The Athletics again will be fortified
with the presence of the leading hit
ter OF the league-Al Simmons. They
will have Mickey Cochrane, who Is
fully recovered from the ailments that
hampered him in the world series.
Lastly they will again present the
rotation Of pitchers that turned in 72
victories last year, Lefty Grove,
George Earnshaw and Rube Walberg.
Including Roy Mahaffey and his Is
victories. the Athletics had four hurl-
ers In 1881 who produced 81 triumplls.
The best Of the young pitching pros
poets is Lew Krausse. schoolboy star
who made his big league debut last
season.
Connie Mack's efforts since the
close of last season have been devoted
solely to increasing the batting
strength Of his utility corps. To this
end he purchased first baseman Oscar
Roettger from st. Paul and outfielder
Ed Coleman from Portland, Ore.
Coleman may give Bing Miller con-
test for the right field job.
Roettger Is slated to replace Phil
Todt as understudy to Jimmy Foxx.

Sport Experts

New York, Dec. 2i.-5electiOnS fol
Golfers All-America football team

players chosen are:
BACKS-W0od, Harvard, quar-

Dalrymple is the only man on tn,
1881 list who also appeared on th'
All-America last year.
Credit for the most spectacular pla!
Of the season goes to star who i
not selected for the team. "Th;
greatest run of the year." say tn,
judges, "was made by Ray stecker o
the Army against Notre Dame"
Season Was 'Bewildering'
The football season of 1881 is char
acterized by the selection committe,
as "bewildering," owing to the fac
that many strong teams which begar
the campaign with a dash, finished
sprawled out. "Notre Dame startet
with a wild sweep and then fell be-
fore Southern California and tn
Army" the judges comment. "Yai'
won no major game up to her Har
ward test, and Harvard had won ever.
game until the Yale meeting, yet i
was the Blue that fluttered abov'
the Crimson when the two met.
Tulane alone. with it's speed ant
smoothness, finished November a
full strength. The wear and tea
showed on Georgia, Notre Dame
Northwestern and Harvard to {
marked degree, and all this must Ab
taken into consideration when on
starts to consider the work of indi
vidual stars. They often rise all,
fall as their teams rise and fall, 70
they are all a part of the organiza
ton which they represent.
There were more than the usua
number of injuries this year, due Il
part to incorrect blocking, the hard
est and toughest part Of the game
The west coast again proved 1t
strength with victories over Mime
sofa, Notre Dame and Dartmouth
The south had one of its creates
years. The midwest had a stron
general average. The east was NOR
spotty than usual
End Competition Close
The closest competition for tn
priced gold trophies designed by Wal
ter Camp came among the end selec
tions. Dalrymple was out in from
with something to spare. But Smith
Orsi and Cronkite were in q drivin
finish and Smith of Georgia wa
finally given the edge in considera
ton of the terrific schedule he ha
to face, which included 10 hard game
and almost no respite from one wee
to another.
The comment of the judges o
their other selections Is as follows:
Naturally the backfield battle wa
close. If Shaver had been placed a
quarterback, Gene McEver of Ten
nessee would have drawn the full
back assignment. Morton Of Dart
mouth was nearest Wood in the cas-
but Wood rose to greater heights 9
times and his all-around effectiveness
