Rice's selection of Smith to fill in at the other tackle position is one of the two surprising selections. Smith's nomination for the honor eleven was decidedly surprising for many writers were of the opinion that his teammate and captain on the Pennsylvania team, Hake, was a more brilliant and finished player. Hibbs, of California, Sprague of the Army, Douds of Washington and Jefferson, and Lucas of Missouri, included the list of tackles on the all-American squad. At the guard positions, Rice placed Captain Smith of Notre Dame and Crane of Illinois. Crane's selection is the second surprise choice made by Rice.

DEFINITE FORM Only eight days remain before Michi- gan meets her traditional rival, Michi- gan Stag college, in the opening game of the 1927 season, and the fight for positions on tho Wolverine quintet seems to have resolved itself into a battle for the forward positions oppo- site Oosterbaan, as the play of Rose, a newcomer, has stamped him as the likely starter at the vacant guard post. While five of the new candidates are battling merrily for the single for- ward position, Harrigan, Oosterbaan and McCoy appear to be assured of their last year's berths. McCoy will probably drop back in- to back guard position after the tip- off, with Harrigan taking the pivot, while Oosterbaan will be seen in his, accustomed place at forward. Five of the new candidates, Raber, Chapman, Balsamo, Bowerman and Kanitz, are waging a close fight for the remaining forward berth. Raber< and Chapman are both big players, Kanitz is above the average in stature, while Balsamo and Bowerman are forwards of the "pony" type. With Harrigan and Oosterbaan ab- sent from last night's practice, the Blue team lined up for scrimmage with Schroeder at center, Kanitz and Raber, forwards, and McCoy and Rose, guards. The Red team was composed of Magram at center, Orwig and Han- na, forwards, and Daniels, and Myran guards. Both teams showed lashes of good floor work, but experienced difficulty n locating the baskets. McCoy, Raber, and Rose shared the scoring honors for the Blues, each makipg two baskets, while Orwig and Magram were the offensive stars for the Reds, the former garnering three baskets I and the latter two. YOUNG STARTS IN COMMERCIAL LIFE (By Associated Press) TORONTO, Dec. 1.-George Young, marathon swimmer, started life in the commercial world yesterday. e has signed up with a company ret iling sporting goods and radio instruments and is learning the business. Young intends to keep in training, however, ifor a chance to vindicate his collapse in the Canadian National Ex- hibition marathon of last August. Swim fans remember Young for his unduplicated feat of negotiating the Catalina channel. CHICAGO- Coach A. A. Stagg awarded 21 letters to members of the Maroons' 1927 grid team. Bennie Oosterbaan, Michigan's peer- less leader, in being named *11-Amer- ican end for the third consecutive year has entered. the sacred portals of King Football's Hall of Fame, his name making the seventh to be plac- ed on this roll of honor since the be- ginning of the selections in 1889. He is not only the first Michigan man to receive this distinction bu in doing so has reached a hei .t that even such men as our own Willie He- ton, that famous Indian athlete, Jim Thorpe, and the immortal Coy of Yale. failed to acquire. He is one of the six to receive this honor in the twcnteith century. Before the three year varsity com- petitidn rule came into effect four men were placed on the first team' four successive years. Here we find the names of Hinky, Yale's stellar flankman, two great guards in Brown of Yale and Hare. of Pennsyl nia The fourth is a brilliant tackle, New- ell of Harvard. .
