dynamite was last week when their
curiosity got the better of them and
the result was beef hash. Blasting
out stumps on his farm Larson plant

plosive under a stump in the pasture

CHARLES TOWN
MEET OPENS
THURSDAY.

CHARLES TOWN, w. Va, Dec.
4.-General Manager Al Boyles
announced this morning that the
repairs on the track had prog.
ressed so we'll that the Charles
Town meeting would get under
way Thursday.
With fair weather prevailing,
Mr.. Boyle expects the racing strip
will permit horsemen to work
their thoroughbreds.
Bad Spots Filled
The greatest damage to the
track was on the backstretch
where the torrential downpour
washed out several sections. Five
wagons were employed hauling
dirt to fill in the bad places
A large crew of men began
work at daybreak, each day fill
ing up the bad spots
There are about $50 horses now
on the grounds. Several vans
loads arrived yesterday morning
from Maryland points, and more
are due today.
Post time for the first race will
be 1:45 p. m. and the races will
be run every 25 minutes. The
new highway from Washington
to Charles Town, which reduced
the distance by road between the
two points from "a miles to So
miles, withstood last weeks rains
in excellent conditions.

The third recommendation is
for the creation of the faculty

receive the pay of dean of a ce-
partment. He shall be responsl.

both intramural and intercollegi-
ate. as we'll as for physical edu'
cation.
This dean of athletics would,
under the proposed plan, have
three assistants who would be spe-
officially in charge of intercollegi.
ate athletics, of physical educa-
ton and of intramural sport. For
reasons Of economy at the present
time the head of one of these di-
visions might serve as dean OF
athletics.
The advisory council, in the new
scheme, would have as does the
present athletic council, three fac
ulUy 1SpI IESCIlUdUlVCo, UIlANS oCA-
dents and three alumni. This
council shall act purely in an ad-
visory capacity" says the report.
1T shall meet upon call of the
president or of the dean of ath-
letics and shall perform such du-
ties only as may be requested OF
it,"
The fifth recommendation is
that all full-time coaches, instruc-
tors and assistants shall be mem.
bers of the faculty with faculty
rank and pay part time student
coaches and clerical help would
not be faculty members. They
shall be elected and have their
pay fixed by the visitors, in the
same manner and upon recon-.
mendation of the president, as
professors in any other depart
ments are elected. They shall per-
form such duties as may be dele:
gated to them by the heads OF
their respective divisions and such
duties in other divisions as the
dean of athletics may require"

Recently this bureau made
what was interpreted as a fatal

started coming in.

named by the Alumni Association.
This council should act only in
an advisory capacity.
Plan Studied
President NeWcomb appointed
this special committee on January
2. 1884, and requested that 1t
study the athletic practices Of
leading American colleges and
universities and recommend to
the University of Virginia plan
for the unified control of all forms
of athletics and physical training
William H. White, jr., of Wash
ington, D. c., present alumnus
chairman of the Athletic Council,
was named chairman of DR.. New
combs committee. Other mem
bers appointed were George B.
Eagel, professor of law; James G.
Driver, director of athletics; Dr..
John H. Neff. professor of urology
and former head football coach;
Lawrence T. Ludwig, associate
professor of physical education,
and Christopher B. GarneJt, OF
Cherrydale, Va, representative
from the board of visitors.
The report begins by tracing
the growth of the present ath-
letic organization within the uni
versity from its earliest days in
1870. Then it calls attention to
many actual instances of the
cumbersome workings of the
present diversified control, partly
by the university, partly by stu
dents, and partly by the athletic
council composed of faculty, stu
dents and alumni.
The first recommendation calls
upon the university to abolish
the present athletic council, the
faculty position of director OF
athletics and to eliminate the
General Athletic Association from
all participation in athletic al
fairs"
School of Athletics
It is next recommended that
"instead there be created a regu'
lar administrative division or
school of the university, TO be
known as the School of Athletics
and Physical Education or by
some other appropriate title
which will consist of three dlvl'
sions, designated as the Division
of intercollegiate Athletics, the

TULANE
ARE CHOSEN

NEW ORLEANS. La, Dec. 4.
The Owls of Temple University,
coached by Pop Warner, will
Journey south to meet the Green
Wave of Tulane in New Orleans
first sugar bowl classic to be
played here on New Years Day.
This was announced today by
the sugar bowl committee after
receiving acceptances from both
teams late last night.
Temple, rated as one of the out
standing teams of the East, was
invited because of it's impressive
record under the direction of
Coach Warner, originator of the
double wingback system" The
Owls were undefeated this year,
although in ties with Indiana and
Bucknell.
Tulane, which won the right to
represent the South as the home
team by virtue of the Green Wave
victory last Saturday over Louis
lana State University, went
through the season undefeated in
the southeastern conference, but
was beaten by Colgate.

Minnesota Grid Stars Dominate
1884 Hearst AU-America
Consensus Selections

, pug" Lund, the Minnesota
backfield ACE" was a first-team
nomination last year; his wing
man teammate, Swede Larsen,
was on the second team, and
Duane Purvis. of Purdue, a third
team member last year. has quail
fled this time for the second
squad.
Only one absentee is noted.
Cotton" Warburton, of Southern
California, the first-team quarter
back last year, failed to catch
the selector's eye this year. Han
dicapped by a weak supporting
cast, the diminutive Warburton
flashed with his 1888 brllllance
only in spots.
Votes Are What Count
Concerning the backfield align
ment a word of explanation is
necessary. All the first team
backs with the exception of Howell
were picked for two or more posi-
tions. Grayson. for instance. was
named as quarterback, nan
back and fullback. Lund collected
votes as a halfback and tulloacK'
and Berries. as a half back and
quarterback. In modern-day foot
ball the old designations mean
little, and in making these selec,
tions we we're guided by the total
votes cast for the player.
AS it stands we're proud of the
team, think it is truly an all
America team, the pick of the
country's players. In the aggre-
gate it presents speed. weight, eX,
perience. power, and football
know how"
Anyway. here it is-the 1884
Hearst Consensus AllAmerlcan
Eleven. And a sweet football team
it is.
The Washington times., 1934-12-04

Of all the players listed Bobby
Grayson polled the highest vote.
He received a first team listing
from 1863 of the 207 observers who
filed ballots. Dixie" Howell of
Alabama; Larsen and Lund Of
Minnesota; and Robinson of Notre
Dame were other strong favorites.
For the other positions the vot-
ing was very close. Monohan. the
Ohio State guard; Don Hutson,
the Alabama end; and Berwanger
and WeinStock among the backs,
missed first team recognition by
only narrow margin.
Only among the tackles were
the votes widely distributed. 1t
seemed to be the general opinion
among the observers that the
standard of tackle play this year
was lower than in recent seasons.
One explanation advanced is that
the newer football throws the
guards and ends into greater
prominence.
More than 300 candidates for the
team we're nominated by the vari-
Gus seIectors, Naturally many of
these received only few votes.
though it is true, too, that several
of those on the honorable mention
list were only a few votes behind
those players picked for the third
team.
Incidentally, none of the players
so honored received fewer than
20 votes, and none was selected
who did not receive a recommen-
dation from a coach. official or
writer outside his own district.

is on the dispy-dido.
Act Like Children
For grown men earning
living out of their jobs, college
football authorities, and often
the presidents of the universities
themselves, act more like kids
playing at country store than
like adults engaged in a great
racket.
If a writer, for instance, init
mates a game will be a walk
away for one team or the other.
that is interpreted within the
halls of our academic institu-
tions as a direct effort to hurt
the football gate, making it no
contest.
If a radio broadcaster opines
one team is three touchdowns
better than another and should
have no difficulty winning as it
pleases, that is undesirable
notoriety which will tend to
make the cash customer seek a
game that might be little more
closely played.
Think No Evil
One of the cardinal rules OF
not getting frowned upon in the
athletic offices is to never re-
fleet on their distinguished ri
walls from another cline, else
such a reference might dis

visitor for another season.
One prominent Southern col

that the local college is unable
to control undesirable publicity
or any other kind, insofar as
that is concerned.
