selitctees. Just" a whistle separ-
ated some of the honorable men-
tions from the second team, no
close was the picking. But Al
Litwak, our All-American of last
year from Western Reserve,
could'nt be denied, for he was
the field general of one of the
greatest little teams in the land.
And the right halfback position
was finally and after long delib-
eration awarded to Sid White of
Brooklyn College. White was the
nation's top scorer, leading the
scoring derby with 113 points, and
no it was no more than right that
this Brooklyn rambler be accord-
ed first team honors.
Every man in the line is a
Proven star. From end to end,
from Bill Luftman of Drake to
Schoenbaum of Ohio State, the
alai: sparkled like Burgundy from
week-end to week-end. And only
one "midget" — Cornell's 176-
nound Sammy Stahl—crashed the
lineup. The other range from
Schoenbaum's 215 pounds to
Luftman's 184. Drake Univer-
sity and the Middle West were
especially "high" on Luftman.
From coach and players, his own
and opponents, came similar re-
ports—"Luftman is as great an
end as there is in the country."
Schoenbaum, while a tackle all
season,' was named for the other
end for two reasons; first, a dis-
tinct drought of good Jewish ends,
and second, he is familiar with
the position, having played it last
year. Joe Ober, Pennsylvania's
210-pound tackle, get the nod
again this season, teaming with
Milt Pollack of California on the
first team. Hut great as these
behemdths were, they were just
a shade, if that, superior to a pair
of giants from "little schools"—
Leo Disend of Albright and Ed
Stern of Penn Military.
The guards, although the most
numerous and thus the finest di-
vision in the Jewish All-Ameri-
can ranking, were easy to pick
because of Leroy Monsky, Ala-
bama's captain, • who is named
captain of the Jewish All-Ameri-
can, and Solly Maggied of Ohio
tate. It isn't possible to sing
enough paeans of Monsky and
Maggied. Monsky is the best of
a great crop of southern guards;
Maggied was accorded similar
honors in the Big Ten. And so
the mere mention of their names
gives them title to the first team
positions. But how about Herman
Spector, the Los Angeles youth
who was a substitute for Captain
DuBois of Navy early in the sea-
son, but who played such grand
ball that he soon forced DuBois
to take a back seat, or more cor-
rectly a seat on the bench? And
Ed Merlin of Vanderbilt? Both
are splendid performers, but be-
cause of the calibre of guards,
they are second choices. And
at that they rank only a split-
second over Jack Cohen of U. C.
L. A. and Sam Levine of Ten-
nessee, another great southern
gentleman.
The center job on the first
team goes to Cornell's Sammy
Stahl, although other Jewish cen-
ters had more experience. But
it was Sammy who was trans-
formed into a center by Coach
Carl Snavely early this season
when the Cornell captain was In-
lured. And so miraculously did
Sammy take to the job that he
was the outstanding linesman in
the Princeton game. Jerry Stein,
one of the few real football play-
ers Coach Benneh Friedman had
at City College, gets second call
for the pivot position, with Frank
Guzick, 198-pounder from Texas

Tech, No. 3 nominee. Said the
Texas line coach to Seven Arta
about Master Guzick: "He's one
of the greatest centers the South-
west has ever seen ... you can't
go Wrong in selecting him on your
All-American l" Because Jewish
ends were so few and far between,
Marty Glickman is transformed
into one on the second team.
Marty was an Olympic sprinter,
and his speed burst him loose for
numerous touchdowns for dear
old Syracuse. Yet Glickman didn't

ends . . . and therein came Glick-
man. With his tall, rangy build,
although light of weight, he would
make an ideal end—for a mythi-
cal team at least.
The secona team backfield,
while not as potent as the first,
has enough of what it takes to
earn its honors. Bernie Bloom.
N. Y. U.'s star, is named quarter-
back, and is a second team mem-
ber only because Al Litwak could
not possibly be removed. Solly
Sherman of Chicago was one of
the ,few bright soots in a season
full of gloom or the Maroons.
This husky West Side youngster
gave a continuously satisfactory
performance in the face of little
assistance against the , toughest
the Middle West had to offer. His
running mate at right halfback
is Saul Nechtem of Boston U.
Nechtem was the star of one of
the greatest Boston U. teams in
history and the first to knock over
Boston College. Saul can run,
pass, plunge and kick with the
best of them. Gil Dobie, Boston
College mentor, said: "I've seen
backs with power and backs with
finesse, but give ins Nechtem. He's
got everything." Nechtem nosed
out Mushy Pollock of California.
Pollock didn't play often because
he weighs only 145 pounds, but
when he does . . . zowie! Con-
sidered to be the fastest man in
a football uniform, he streaks
down the field like a scared jack-
rabbit. But unlike a jackrabbit,
he knows enough to lug a pig-
skin with him.
Fullback is Yale's "man of the
Pinch," Al Hessberg. "When in
doubt, use Hessberg," was Yale's
slogan for three years. And he
seldom failed. It was Hessberg
was starred along with Clint
Frank in the 9-9 tie with Dart-
mouth. It was Hessberg who
scored the touchdown that beat
Princeton two years ago. It was
Hessberg who made the gains that
prevented Yale from being shut
out by Harvard this year. Yes,
Al Hessberg belongs with the best.
From near and far, coast to
coast, North and South, East and
West, you've heard how Jewish
stars are being cited as "finest,
greatest, grandest, etc., on the
nation's college football squads.
Then, before concluding, let's
hear about Abe Levine, about
whom Colorado is raving; and
about Nathan George Friedberg,
over whom Franklin and Marsh-
all is having hysterics. Both are
from smaller schools; they haven't
received the publicity that is part
and parcel of the "big leagues."
Yet about each the reports were
no glowing that it was impossible
to disregard them. Both wig,
tackles. Colorado expects to fin'
ish the season undefeated. And
F. & 5f. has done all right by it-
self.

Did you hear about Dave Cha-
gen, famous Hollywood restau-
ranteur, who kayoed a prominent
songwriter who gave vent to some
Streicher-like sentiments about
Jews?
