fine pass catcher, tackler. blocker
and defensive stalwart, Schreiner
was real iron man" this year
playing go minutes against Notre
Dame, Ohio State, Iowa and North
western and So minutes against
Minnesota and Great Lakes.
In three years of varsity competi-
ton, Schreiner never had time out
called for him.
Only twice was ground gained
outside him during the past season,
Notre Dame getting seven yards
and Iowa six. He was exceptionally
skillful at manipulating the inter-
ference, frequently paving his way
through to the ball carrier or driv-
ing the interferers and ball-carrier
out of bounds.
60Minute Performer.
Shaw was another Commute
performer for Ohio State which ran
through a tough 10-game schedule
with only one loss and finished off
with a tremendous Alp conquest
of Bernie Bierman's Iowa Pre-
Fighters.
The Buckeye wingman was at his
best when the going was toughest,
a standout in the Illinois, Michigan
and Iowa Pre-Flight games. He
was equally at home on defense or
of1ense, a fine catcher, blocker
and tackler and Ohio States fastest
man down the field on punts. Him
self a good punter, he was not used
for that duty because of his value
downfleld in covering Buckeye kicks.
Coach Paul Brown said he'd rather
get a short punt and have Shaw
cover it, than to have a good punt
from Shaw and then have the re-
ceiver get away.
Tackles of All-America caliber
were relatively scarce this season
but johnson and Wildung would
have been standouts in any COM
pany. !
Tackles Are Spectacular.
johnson, a giant of man, played
sensationally for Kentuckys losing
team. Moving his tremendous 235-
pound bulk with surprising agility
and speed, Johnson was an impress
sive figure in the Wildcat line, and
What is more, an immovable one.
He was the big reason why Georgia
barely got past the Wildcats, 7-6,
and he was equally effective against
Alabama and the rest. Like Geor-
gia, Alabama finally quit running
plays at his side Of the line because
it cost them an average of three
yards every time they did it. He
was tremendously effective on de-
fense, standing straight up to his
full 6 feet inches, batting would
be blockers out of the way with
wide-swinging swipes of his huge
paws and then lunging in to tackle
the ball carrier.
Minnesota's long Big Ten reign
finally came to an end, but no blame
for that could rest on Wildung's S
shoulders. This repeater from the
1941 All-America was every bit as

Baseball 10 Lose Men
On Defense Work,
Hickey Fears
Sees U. S. Holding Them
To Essential Efforts;
Army to Get Reiser
BY JUDSON BAILEY,
Associated Press Sports Writer

NEW YORK, Dec. 11-Doubt
that baseball players who have
taken defense jobs this winter will
all be back with their clubs next
spring was expressed today by
Branch hickey, president of the
Brooklyn Dodgers.
Discussing baseball's place in the
war effort at a press conference,
Hickey said. Il think the Govern
ment wants to see the sport con-
tinued, but I think we must do it
with men the Government doesn't
Want-men who would be idle 9TH
erWise.
"A very radical thing has been
done in the last 10 days. The Gov
ernment now can tell people where
to work and where not to work.
LAS for its concern with baseball
personnel, don't see it now as
problem of calls by the Army, Navy,
ETC., but the problem of shifting
men from non-essential to essen
tial industry.
Eager to Get Camilli.
Il know a number of ball play
ers have taken up various kinds Of
other work this winter. Some of
their jobs may be of great i'm
portance to the war effort, and.
others may not. But it is conceiv-
able that many of those now work.
ing will be held in essential indus
try. Wen just have to get along
with what we have"
Hickey disclosed that one Of the
Dodgers brightest stars has just
about crossed the Threshold Of the
Army. Pete Reiser, the f1asty young
center fielder, took his physical ex-
animation last week and was re-
classified Ia. His draft board in
Brooklyn said he probably would be
inducted about January l. He mar
ried last spring but previously had
been classified ga for helping sup
port his family.
How many others of last years
team may be called to the colors
or may need to stay at their off,
season tasks no one could say.
Hickey said he had heard nothing
more from Dolph Camilli, the vet
eran first baseman who has de-
clared he would give up baseball
to stay on his ranch next year.
However. Hickey said if Camilli had
not changed his mind when spring
training time arrived he himself
would 60 to California to try to per-
suade him to play ball.
New Training Spot Unlikely.
The possibility that the Dodgers
might not train in Florida also was
Hickey said the Dodgers
would observe mot only the letter
but the spirit" of the travel curtail-
ment suggested by Defense Trans
portation Director Joseph B.~East-
man. He said he had done some
thinking about giving up the West
Palm Beach training site selected
recently but did not know whether
he could find any other satisfactory
location.
The reappointment OF Fred Fitz-
simmons as pitcher-co and the
establishment of a working agree

tlons; he was superlative kicker
with an average that scared past
48 yards for the season.
Sooner Ace Savage Tackle.
Defensively, Dobbs was savage
tackler and ball hawk. He usually
played in the safety spot and no.
body got past him all season.
Dobbs put on an All-America per-
tormance in the final game with
Arkansas. After leading Tulsa 81
yards to touchdown in the first
period Dobbs suffered badly
twisted knee and was removed from
the game and turned over kicking
and passing chores to N. A. Keithley
A few minutes later, however. he
persuaded Coach Henry Frnka to
put him back in the lineup and
finished the game at wingback
From that position he caught two
passes for gain of SO yards, tore
through the Arkansas line for II
yards despite bad limp and played
a great game of defense.
Statistically, Dobbs' best perform
ance this season was in the game
with Washington University of St.
Louis. He played only two quarters,
but threw 10 passes and completed
all of them. three for touchdowns,
and got loose on one 56-yard sprint
for a touchdown.
Holovak Showed Power.
For time this season Holovak
carried the full burden of Boston
Colleges offense on his powerful
shoulders. Later on in the season
big Mike got some help, but there
never was any question about his
position as the Eagles greatest all
around back, defensively as well as
extensively.
Up until the Holy Gross debacle
when Boston Colleges eight-game
winning streak was smashed, Hof-
ovak averaged better than 100 yards
a game with his plunges through
forward walls or his sweeps
around the ends.
The Eagles line was so badly out
played by Holy Cross that Holovak
had no real chance to get going in
that game after the first period had
been played But otherwise, the big
205-pounder was a tough man to
stop. Against North Carolina Pre-
Flights crack array, Holovak broke
through for lib yards and was a big
factor in carrying the Eagles to a
7-6 victory that represented the
Pre-Flighters' first defeat.
A regular for three years, Holovak
was co-captain of the Eagles this
season.

LONDON, Jan 29-The anti-Axis
German language newspaper Die
Zeitung, published in London. will
say tomorrow that a compromise
reached by Adolf Hitler and certain
elements of the German high COM
mand is equivalent to an admission
on the part of Hitler that he is
unable to carry on the eastern rus
siam campaign without the aid of
experienced strategists."
An extract from the newspaper.
circulated today by the British
Ministry Of Information, declares
that commands Of the conservative
generals, Won Book. Won Rundstedt,
Won Leeb and others. have been
confirmed and they are now in
charge of new armies"
The price Hitler paid for the COM
promise was mainly a promise to
reduce the recently strong voice of
Heinrich Himmler, Gestapo chief
in military affairs and send him
back to the Reich from headquarters
on the eastern front.
However, Die Zeitung declared
Himmler is still the strongest man
in Germany after Hitler and he
has afoot his own preparations for
increasing the power of the Nazi
party and regime. One of these is
big recruiting program for the
SIS. Hitlers elite guard.
