MEEHAN HAULED IN N. Y. U. PAPER;
 INK BATTLE ON

New York, Dec 10.-(UP)-Re- moval of John F. "Chick" Meehar as football coach at New York uni versity was demanded to-day by the N. Y. U. Daily News, student publication.
 An editorial headed "Time to Retire" pointed out that the board of athletic control meets Satur- day, presumably to consider Mee- hans contract, up for renewal.
 we do not want Mr Meehan," the editorial state, because MT Meehan stands for university policy of bigrtime football with all its corollary evils, recruiting of players, lavish entertainment of prospects, subsidization of athletes, athletic scholarship funds, physical punishments for delinquents and a general drafting of students into universities for the sole purpose of playing football"
 Reed Harris, crusading editor of the Columbia University Spectator congratulated the N. Y. U. editors on their stand in the face of @ ver- bal bomb from the Daily Dart mouth, student publication.
 Harris, in that publication, was characterized as a "brave, headline drunk editor" In commenting on Harris slaughter House" charge, the editorial said his fitch for the sensational seems to have gotten the best of him again."

YALE GRID STAFF EXCEPT FREEDMAN
 BACK NEXT YEAR
Booth Offered Jaynee Job Root Ere s h m a n Coach = Stevens Ap- proved

New Haven, Conn, Dec 10-(UP) disappointment of Head Football Coach pr Marvin M. (MaD Stevens who produced this years Big Three championship Yale team, gratified Yale students and alumni to-day.
 There had been almost united demand from these groups for re- engagement of the coach whose team beat Harvard for the first time in four years and trounced Princeton by the biggest score ever recorded against the Tiger. Last year at this time they were crying for his scalp after Yale had completed wretched season.
 Worked His Way
 Stevens, a Kansas boy who came east with less than $10 in his pocket, earned his way through Yale as a mortician's helper and became a star halfback under T. A. D. Jones, was induced to postpone his entry into the medical profes- sion. He completes his year of in- ternship next spring and he had expressed q desire to give up coaching for medical practice after last years season was over.
 The board of control of the Yale Athletic association. now com posed chiefly of professors after a reorganization, reappointed Stew ems along with Line Coach Adam Walsh and End Coach Charlie Comerford last night. No an- nouncement was made regarding Benny Friedman, who has been di- viding his time between coaching Ell backs and professional foot ball.
 Albic Wanted
 Captain Albie Booth, in @ san atorium at Wallingford, was in- vited to be backfeld coach of the junior varsity If doctors pronounce him fit. Reginald Root, rumored earlier as Stevens probable suc- cessor, was appointed head fresh man coach, succeeding Pat Os- bourne, who was given years leave of absence. Bucky O'Con- nor, former Notre Dame star, and Bob Hall will assist Root.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1931-12-10

had some pretty good ideas of my own about an all-Big Ten honor team. You probably had too. Mine would have looked something like the one above. But even if l had actually seen every Big Ten game, couldn't have been really sure of my choices. am of this team.
 Three players from the North western eleven that ran through its regular schedule undefeated. two each from Purdue, Minnesota and Michigan and one each from Ohio State and Wisconsin comprise the honor team. Players from h. diana, Chicago, Iowa and Illinois are given honorable mention.
 Four of the all-stars are almost certain to receive All-America rec ognition. They are Riley and Mar vii, Northwestern's gigantic tackles; Mum, the Minnesota guard and captain, and Rentner. Northwest ern ha1fback, considered by many the best ball-carrler of the year.
 Four more probably will be mentioned prominently on many All-America choices. They are Morrison of Michigan, Kabat of Wisconsin, Cramer of ohio State and Manders of Minnesota.
 There is. much for comment about this team and it's attending group of "contenders." Harold Smith, Wisconsin tackle and cap tain, who performed against Pur- due, Minnesota, Illinois. Ohio State and Chicago, believed his team mate Kruger to be the outstanding center in the middle west, a gem both on the offensive and defen- sive.
 Stu Holcomb, Ohio State half back and captain, nominated Berry of Illinois as the best halfback in the conference next to Rentner, and put him ahead of his Buckeye running mate, Lew Hinchman.
 Joe Zeller, Indiana guard, who was not an elected captain of the RoOsiers, but who served as field captain by appointment, felt that Miller of Purdue was the best cen- ter of the year, and he played against Yarr of Notre Dame out side the conference and Iowa, Chi cago, Ohio State. Michigan and Northwestern. Of all the North- western backflelding talent, Zeller was most impressed by Ollie Olson. And Fighting Joe, the Hoosier scrapper, nominated Rascher, a teammate, as the best defensive tackle in the middle west, but the most underestimated.
 Gil Berry of Illinois, another star player who was not an elected captain until the close of the reg ular season, found Bill Hewitt of Michigan the toughest man he fac ed. Incidentally, Berry looked at all the first division teams save Minnesota. as the Illini met Pur- due, Michigan. Northwestern, Wis., consin and Ohio State.
 Marvil and Mum won places on the all-star team. Each could have voted for himself. but didn't. That's clear evidence that the boys are star players, but too modest.
 Rentner was unanimous choice of all captains. The big Wildcat halfback boiled eight votes. His closest rival was Moss of Purdue. who drew recognition from seven captains. Riley of Northwestern was next with six votes. All who made the all-star team were rec commended by four or more cap tains.

To-Day's Sport
 P a a d e
By HENRY McLEMORE

bY h6Ayk6x NxCAGsNAOHkh United Press Stan COrrespondent) New York, Dec 10.-(UP)- Rogers Hornsby. in case you don't know 1t, has plenty of enemies. many of whom make 8 point of slipping off to 8 quiet place at least once each day and putting | listened to many such blasts in my day but I have yet to hear any of the boys or girls question his cour- age. They all seem willing to ad- init that the man has plenty of heart.
 Rajah gave a sample of his cour- age yesterday when he went out and engineered deal whereby Burleigh Grimes-good old bel- ligerent Burleigh-was made 8 member of the Cubs. say this took courage on Hornsby's part, for several reasons. First, Roger and Burleigh get along about as well as sparks and dynamite. When they were fellow Giants Manager McGraw twice was forced to ap- peal to the league of nations to get them separated.
 Rogers No Sap
 Second, Hornsby Is no sap, and being no sap he undoubtedly was aware when he signed Burleigh, that there was a good chance he has up and signed his successor as boss of the Chicagos. don't think I am letting out any state secrets when I say that there Is pretty general belief among base ball men that Hornsby is out un- less the Cubs win the 1932 pen- nant. Mister William Wrigley, who owns the Cubs, is interested only in managers W ho win pennants. Mister Wrigley has a very high scorn for place or show money, and this makes 1t imperative that his managers win pennants to hold their jobs.
 If you doubt me ask Joe Me- Carthy. Joe signed Hornsby in nant. In 1880 they didn't. In 1881 instrumental in bringing to Chi cago, got his job.
 Burleigh a Pilot?
 Grimes has been mentioned as a manager for this club or that club for the last five years or more. He oughta make a good one, having played on every National league team except Cincinnati and Phila- delphia, don't be overwhelmed if he plays of them before the sea- sons out.
 Grimes No Hack
 Hack Wilson, they tell me, fold ed up like a second hand accordion when Hornsby began riding him. Hornsby need have no fears that Burleigh will collapse under the same treatment. Not Burleigh. Burleigh loves to win ball games, and when he steps out there on the firing line Hornsby may rest assured that the Cubs are going to get all the. pitching there is in Bur leigh's stout right arm. He's too much of a fighter, himself, to al- low a little riding to upset his equilibrium, if I may use a word three syllables over my head.
 Martin Next?
 Now that St Louis has disposed Grimes, I wonder when Pepper Martin will be fired or sold down the river. Pepper, you will re- member, was just as responsible as Grimes for the Cards winning the 1891 world series, Judging by the way the Cards get rid of men who succeed, 1t would seem that the only way to keep a job with those babies would be to strike out three out of three, miss every ball batted your way, and slap the own CT soundly before and after each meal.
