BeIIinghanl Batk Picked for Litile AIl-Amerisa Honor

NEW YORK, Dec. 5--R-Twenty- two players-athletes representing schools not in the national limelight won honors on the Associated Press annual Little College All America football team for 1851.
 There is nothing little" about the players themselves, nor of their ability. The squad, divided for the first time into offensive and de- fensive units, averages 6 feet l inch in height with some of the linemen pushing the scales to 2l5 pounds. The average age is =.
 Twenty-two different colleges are represented on the first team, with only halfback Robert Miller of Emory and Henry, repeating from the 1850 selections. Miller started the 1851 season at furious pace, slumped in midseason but closed well enough to assure his return to the top team.
 The defensive platoon includes as che of it's backs Norman Hash, of Western Washington College, Bel lingham, Wash. Hash, 25-year old senior from Enumclaw, Wash, stands five foot, nine and weighs 200 pounds.
 In the backfield with Miller on the all-star offensive aggregation are Robert Flanagan of St. Abrose, one-time Notre Dame freshman who is giving up another year of eligibil- ity to become a priest; Joe Pahr of the unbeaten Valparaiso University team: and Ralph DiMicco of AL fred's unblemished outfit.
 The offensive line is centered by James Hazlett of Susquehanna. He passed up chances to play for larger and more widely known colleges for the privilege of playing under Coach A. A. Stagg. Sr., at the little Pennsylvania college.
 Just say said Stagg. that with out Jim Hazlett, Susquehanna wouldn't have enjoyed the success it did this year"

 Coast Team Stars pigked
By RUSS NEWLAND

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 5-R- Rose Bowl bound Stanford and the only foe it couldn't beat this season, California, rated 10 players in II positions on the Associated Press 27th annual All-Pacific Coast football squad of %.
 California's All-America guard, Les Richter, was placed on both teams-a guard on offense and a on defense.
 Six Stanford men were voted places. On the offensive team are Bill McCoI, end; Norm Manoogian, guard, and Gary Kerkorian, quar- terback. Named to defensive posi- tions were Ron Eadie, end; Al Kirk land, tackle and Charles Essegian, guard.
 Richter headed California players honors.
 Bob Karpe, tackle, and Charles Harris, center, were picked for of fense and Dick Lennon as a de- fensive halfback.
 Besides Richter, three other All America candidates bulwark the 1851 all coast gridiron outfit. They are McColl, the 6-foot 4-inch pass catcher who helped Stanford win it's first conference championship in eleven years; Washington's ball packing star. Hugh McElhenny and the University of San Francisco's great Negro fullback, Ollie Matson.
 McElhenny and Matson play the same position but they were bal loted in decisively by the football writers and coaches in the coast wide poll. Either could operate brilliantly from q halfback spot.
 Frank Clifford, use ace, rounds out the offensive backfield with Kerkorian, McElhenny and Matson Tn the line, Ed Barker of Washing ton State fills the end opposite Mc- Coll. Herm Clark, 245 pound giant from Oregon State, won the other tackle position by good margin.

Matthews,
 Nardieo in Go Tonight

CLEVELAND. Dec. 5-gR-Two top contenders for the Joey Maxim light heavyweight crown swap blows here tonight in the Cleveland News toyship fund boxing show.
 Both Harry Matthews of Seattle and Danny Nardico of Tampa, Fla, will be allowed tc come in for the bout at Cleveland Arena over the light heavyweight limit. And Mat thews' manager, Jack Hurley, says he is about ready to let his man stay over the weight.
 Hurley declared the chances of getting a fight" with the Cleveland champion tat an early date seems pretty hopeless now"
 A former Seattle shipyard worker, Matthews is ranked as the No. 2 man in his division, but has been unable to get a shot at the champ, Hurley said he might enter his man in the heavyweight division.
 Nardico is an underdog in the betting He lost on a TKO to Irish Bob Murphy when his eye brow was cut. That was his only loss in 12 bouts this year.
 Matthews outpointed Murphy who later lost a challenge bout tc Maxim.

Politics And Generals
By FRANK r. KENT

Inevitably, the tremendous favor
ing popular sentiment aroused by
General MacArthm's return, his
speeches and his % hours of testi-
mony before the two Senate commit
tees created widespread talk of him
for the presidency. This has been
stimulated by his announced intention
to visit a good many other cities
further to express his views. Clubs
have been formed to promote his Re-
publican nomination: a large number
Of persons are for him. Probably if
a vote were taken now he would be
overwhelmingly elected. On the other
hand, among Democratic politicians
who fully appreciate the extremely
bleak prospect their party faces next
year, there is growing talk concern
ing draft" of general Eisenhower.
In all this there is more emotion
than sense and some clear thinking
seems called for. In the first place,
two things appear to nullify the Mae
Arthur idea. One, of course, is his
own fiat statement that he definitely
has no political ambition and intends
to keep out of politics. The other, of
course, is his age. General Macarthur
was II years old ON January 26 last.
If he were elected President next
year he would be nearly 73 before he
took the oath of office and close to
II before the end of his term. These
facts will not stop the boosting of
his friends but they should No man
of that age has ever been elected to
the presidency Perfect as now seems
his physical condition, he is too old
for President. 1t ought to be an
insuperablc barrier.
As to the Generals statement that
he has no desire for the presidency
and no intention to try for it (Which
is the only Interpretation that can be
put on his words), he is certainly en-
titled to credit for as complete sin
cerity as was General Marshall, when
three years ago he said: 81 am not
available-and will not be available
for any elective office" General
Marshall meant that fully when he
said it. There is no reason to believe
that General Macarthur does not
mean what he said just as fully. To
doubt it is not only to reflect upon
the judgment and good sense Of the
man but upon his integrity
For it is still true that no man can
be drafted for President without
an acquiescence that amounts to con-
nivance. And only the most preiu-
diced question the Macarthur sin
cerity. The impressive reply of
General Marshall, the speech Of the

John 7. Jones' United Mine Workers
of America president Of district Is,
tried to blow his top against Governor
McKeldin yesterday for his coal bill
veto, but his statements should back
fire.
Jones said McKeldin Disseminated
against 1000 Maryland miners in
vetoing the measure. McKeldin in his
reply declared that Jones has ere
velsed the situation" stating that the
discriminating would have taken place
had he signed the bill.
Other statements Of Jones about
the number of Marylanders employed
by the Crellin company mines, and
who pays taxes where, were refuted
by statements appearing in news
article in today's issue, made by Crcl
lin mine officials
The real danger in the passage of
such bills as requiring the state to use
only items produced in Maryland, is
in the fact that if such laws become
too common, we would have As sep
arate countries instead Of a United
States of America. If each state dis
eliminated against every other state
in certain items, where would that
lead this Democratic nation?
The passage of the coal bill which
would have required the State Pur
chasing Bureau to buy only Maryland
mined coal for all state institutions,
could have started procedure where
by strictly Maryland coal operators
could have "gouged" the state for all
it was worth The possibility of eX-
tortion on the part of a few operators
would have been unlimited AS it is
now the State gets the advantage Of
d good quality coal at reasonable
price, and from company which
furnished what the state needed at
time when other Maryland union min
ers were cutting their own Threats
with strikes and price rises out of all
proportion to other heating agencies.
