1t. DOBBS RATED
TOPS BY WRITERS
BY CHARLES DUNKLEY

CHICAGO, Aug. 81 Up 1t.
Glenn Dobbs of Tulsa University,
stationed with the Second Air Force
at Colorado Springs, Colo, w a S
voted the most valuable player for
the College All Stars in last
nights charity game won by the
professional Chicago Bears, "a to
q, on a fourth period field goal.
This honor was accorded h e
youthful Dobbs, rated as one Of
the greatest forward passers in col
legiate history, by football writer's
from all sections of the country
after they appraised his work in
sparkling the All Stars attack.
Dobbs will receive a trophy, 81
of the honor, in the 1915 game
between the collegions end the
blematic champions of the National
football league.
Second place honors went to Lon
Saban, Indiana University, who
kicked three r.;nts after touch
down. Head Coach Lynn Waldorf
of the Stars rated Saban's excel
lent generalship at quarterback as
one of the games personal ac-
complishments. Saban is stationed
at Fort Benning, Ga, as a lieuten-
ant of infantry.
Dobbs was the key to the all
stars attack which swept aside the
Bears defenders in the opening
period for IA to 0 lead. He pass
ed to Notre Danes Creighton Mil
Ter in the end zone for the f Il r
touchdown. A few seconds a e r
Dobbs led another forward passing
attack which ended when he took
off, after being trapped, and tipped
to the Bears l yard line where
he was tackled and fumbled. John
Tavener, a teammate, recovered
the ball for the score.
Dobbs was constant threat in
the final period, but the handicap
OF rain possibly prevented him from
hitting a receiver or a winning
score. Dobbs wrote his name in
the records by quick kicking in
the first period for IS yards to set
up the initial score of the game.
The best previous kick in the IL
year series was made by 1t. Bob
Moser of Texas A. NJ, recently
killed in a plane accident in Flori-
da. Moser kicked II yards in the
1912 all-star game against the
Bears.
The All : Stars broke camp at
Northwestern University o d y.
Nearly all of them are servicemen
and with few exceptions all has
tened to their camps. They had
contributed their routine furloughs
and leaves to make possible h e
game which drew $4,000 rain :
soaked spectators and also estab-
lished financial record for the
series. Net proceeds will be do
mated to the Chicago Service mems
center and the Army Air Force
society.

ALL-STARS SET
FOR WHlTEVlLLE

The Shipyard All-Stars, returned
from Raleigh where they took a
80 whipping at the hands of the
Carolina railways, will tackle the
Whiteville nine at Legion field to-
night at 8:15 o'clock.
Originally the All-Stars had
scheduled the Fort Bragg Recep-
ton Center a pair of contests for
this weekend but all the players
have not yet returned to Fort
Bragg from Wichita, where they
have been playing in the Service
League championship.
The nine which will play here
tonight has established credit
able record for itself this year.
Among it's players it numbers sew
eral of the better American Legion
players of the Whiteville aggrega-
ton which has made itself excep-
tionally well known this year.
The games with the Fort Bragg
Reception Center were postponed
until later in the season as the
management of the All-Stars was
afraid that without all of the Fort
Bragg players available the nine
might not be able to present the
competition for which the ALL
Stars are looking
No announcement was made last
night as to who will be on the
mound tonight but indications were
John Wilbornc will probably be Civ
en- try. 1t has been quite some
time since he tossed for the To-
calls, with Fish, Cheshire and 9TH
ers having a tour of duty since
Wilborne was last on the mound.
Though some thought had been
given to closing the season for the
All-Stars after their games with
the 326th Airborne Infantry OF
Camp Mackall, the players voted
this week to continue playing a
long as they are able to secure
games with teams which present
real competition. Consequently il
is now anticipated that they will
play here Monday and Tuesday
nights and probably Friday and
Saturday nights of next week.

BY WHITNEY MARTIN

NEW YORK, Aug. 81 -R-We
don't like to be hypercritical about
these things, but we still can't fl
cure out why it is all tight for
10000 OF so people to watch the
Navy football team play Penn in
Philadelphia or the Army play
Notre Dame or Duke in New
York, yet it is all wrong for the
same number of people to watch
Army play Navy at one OF these
places.
The announcement that Army
and Navy again are booked for a
private showing at Annapolis gives
the same reasons for this isolation
as were given the last two years.
That is the transportation prob
lem, both rail and motor.
If neither Army nor Navy left
it own back yard during the season
the playing of the Army Navy
game at West Point or Annapolis
might be considered in keeping
with a policy setting an example to
other schools over the country. But
when the teams take part in
games in large cities, the idea that
they are trying to set an example
is killed, and can't be revived by
the fact the service schools return
TO a private showing of their annual
classic.
The whole setup seems incongru-
GUS, but it is government edict
that the game shall be played at
Annapolis this year, and it has
been demonstrated that trying to
change the minds of the person
or persons responsible for the de-
cisions is just batting your head
against a brick wall. All you
get is headache.
There will be much speculation
as to the possibility Of the order
being changed before the game
date to permit the contest to be
held in New York Philadelphia
or Baltimore, whe,e more people
can De ACKNOWLEDGEMENT 1IC1C w do
much speculation along the same
lines last year, too, with many
convinced the game would not be
played at West Point. 1t was play
ed at West Point.
Possibly a factor in the decision
announced by Navy Secretary
Forrestal is that Army - Navy
games before the war drew crowds
Of around 100000 and that total is
a little frightening, although from
the standpoint of the principle OF
the thing there isn't much diff
ference between 10000 or 10000
and 100000.
If the government is willing to
let 1000 people see the Army or
Navy play some other opponent it
should be willing, it seems, to al
low that many fans to see the two
service schools play each other.
If it is afraid of that 10000 figure
it could stipulate that it couldn't
be held in the Sesquicentennial sta
dunn in Philadelphia. 1t must be
held in some spot which could not

to guard the colonel even then
can't quite squeeze out letterman

the prospect of one.
He doesn't know a thing about
the newcomers, or plebes, except
that an end named George Poole
from the University of North
Carolina and a back named Dean
Sensenbaugher from Ohio state are
supposed to be pretty good. Which
is something of an understatement
as Poole was an All-Southern Sc
lection last year and Sensenbaugh-
err was considered one of the best
backs in the Big Ten and a marvel
in a broken field.

Make Pickup Drive on
Sunday.

In spite of a steady rain Sunday
afternoon, Glasgow Boy Scouts, XII
wanians and other volunteers COL
lected a full carload of waste paper
and it is now on its way to an east
ern mill. Included in the shipment
were collections made by Boy Scouts
in Opheim, Nashua and Hinsdale.
The car contained 50,580 pounds
of paper.
Men in charge were agreed that
the response from Valley county res
idents was excellent. In more than
one case, householders left as much
as 300 or 400 pounds of paper on
the curb. Even larger loads came
from some businesses and public Of
fices. Also a help to the collectors
was the way in which most paper
was boxed or securely tied in bum
dies.
Tentative plans are being made
for another paper collection later
and householders + again urged to
save all waste - papers, magazines,
old books and scraps.
