Hollywood, Nov. 30.-(UP)--At long last my dream has come true -I am in Hollywood
 I have dreamed of coming here ever since that Fourth of July day, years ago, when l played Uncle Sam in the fourth grade pageant. l won the admiration and acclaim of all the critics that day by keep. ing my beard stuck on longer than any of the Uncle Sans who had trod the boards before mo in this grade school classic. All the praise for my performance, and the ad. miring glances bestowed oil my star.spangied pants, did not go to my head. It only increased my do. termination to make on actor of myself.
 I followed the strenuous patri- otic role, with It's demand for . complete knowledge of oil the verses of America, with . stirring success as A minor prophet in a Christnias pageant. Again my beard stayed on nearly to the end. Later, in high school, I was urged by the D and P teacher tdramatics and painting) to handle the diffi- cult role of one of the sailors il pinafore, but measles prevented my acceptance.
 I tell you these things not in e bragging way, but that you may know that come to Hollywood, not as an outsider, but aS c fellow craftsman. Today I was up with tho dawn to play the Hollywood game-trying to spot movie actors and actresses. I walked up and down the streets, peering into strange faces. Ten o'clock came and ail the luck I had had was to sec q police dog puppy which great. ly resembled that canine Barry. more, that kennel Muni, Rin Iii, Tin.

 Only two men--Ciint Frank and Bob Mcleod - were unanimous choices. Bill Ogmaiiski and Gary Famlglietti were close behind M that order.
 Bob Green was the outstanding choice at end with Merrill Davis beating out Eddie 0MealiA for the other wing spot on the first eleven. Both Green and Davis gre adept pass receivers. Six.footers, Inc cofii' i,eitorS and good defensiyely.
 At the tackles Ken Booth and Johnny JanuSag were tho cutstand. ing choices in that order because Of their consistently fine play. Booth has been 6 key factor th Harvard's s powerful line. Though JanusaS was pretty much hafidcuffed by Holy Gross Saturday, his alisaround play has been one of the Yedeeining foats ureg of the D. 0. season.
 The battle for tho guard positions was close with Gus zitrideS and CheSty Carr pacing the parade in that order. Both are feet on foot, pulling out of the line fast on the offensive. Zitrides' speed made Dartmouths celebrated deep res verse eflectuai in the closing stages of the campaign while Cars work aS 2 short side guard on crosS'bucks and reyerseB hes been outstanding. Both gre sure taCkierg.
 Tn the balioting, Frank Gallagher was for ahead of ell others for the center berth. The scrRppy Yale pivot hes played an important role as e backer-up in Yale's famed fve. man line. He k c deadly tackler, an acute play diagnoser and an import ant cog extensively. Walker barely edged Bowman for second team honorg.
 The backfieid of Frank, Macleod, Osmanski and FasnigiietM has every. thing--speed, power, defensive abil. ity and versatility. All are danger GUS in Q broken field. All qualify as pass receivers. The passing. running and defensive value of Frank needs no Introduction. He is truly All. America. Macleod and Famiglietti could serve alternately as blockers, with the latter handling the kick. of, bunting and point-after assign. ments. Osinanski is one of the most dangerous runners in the business.
 Strangely enough, Al Colweil, whose phenomenal bunting was one of Yale's greatest assets. received fewer votes than expected. This was perhaps due to the fact that New England has been blessed the past season with a wealth of good backs, with Dartmouth boosting the out- standing collection.
