Midwest Service
All-Stars
Chosen By AP
CHICAGO — (AP) — Size up
ihe 1943 Midwestern All-Star Ser
vice team chosen by the coaches
; the Associated Press and
vou'll have an idea of how the
[owa Seahawks and Great Lakes
seamed up” to hand Notre
pame's mnational champions their
only loss of the season.
qix of seven former professional
~ridders who made the honor team
were members of the two Navy
soregations —the Seahawks, who
«oftened up the Irish one : Satur
dav, and Great Lakes, who Dbeat
votre Dame the next.
n fact the ex-pros were the on
v ones from those two Navy
‘wuads who were able to crash
ihe All-Star’s first team, with
plavers from Camp Grant and
rFort Riley, both Army elevens,
taking the other five places.
Lineup
This was the lineup determined
bv the votes of coaches and as
gistants at theses our Midwest
service camps:
Fnds ~— Perry Schwartz, Sea
hawks, and Bob Balaban, Fort
Riley .
Tackles — Roman Bentz, Camp
Grant, and Joe Coomer, Camp
Grant.
Guards — Nick Keratictis, Sea.nl
hawlks, and Russ Letlow, Great,
Lakes.
Center -— Vince Banonis, Sea
hawks. i
Quarterbacks — Bob Ruman;
Fort Riley.
Halfbacks — Dick Todd, Sea
hawks, and Steve Juzwik, Great
Lakes. \
Mullhaeck — Corwin Class, Camp
Grant.
The seven who at one time ap
peared on gridirons of the Nat
jonal Football League are
schwartz, Brooklyn Dodgers; Ke-‘
rasiotis, Chicago Bears; Banonis,
Chicago Cardinals; Letlow, Green
Bay Packers; Cahmer, Pittsburgh
Steelers; and Todld and Juzwik,
Washington hkedskins.
Of the others Bentz played for
Tulane, Balbaan for Texsa Chris
tian, Ruman for Arizona, and
Clatt for Notre Dame, and it's pos
sible all four will find profession
al owners flirting with them at the
end of their militray service, be
cause of their fine records this
fall.
Although the Seahawks and
Great Lakes failed to meet —the
only combination of these four
service teams which did not get
screduled —the reputations of
Banonis and Todd sifted into the
Great Lakes coaches’ room to
such an extent that those two
Seahawks received unanimous ac
claim to the all-star squad, the
only - ones to draw a maximum
quota of votes, i

Left Recently For Service
By JOHN EDWIN POPE
Two outstanding - members of Georgia’s past season
football team left recently for the Army, leaving Coach
Butts minus two boys who started regularly in the Bull
dog backfield for 1943.
The- lads were Bobby Hague, of
Neptune Beach, Fla,, who played
first string blocking back, and
Pearce “Bouchie” Barrett, of Jack
sonville, Fla., who was a regular
fullback for a majority of the sea
son.
Converted Star
Hague came here from Fletcher
High in Florida, where he had es
tablished a brilliant record as a
triple-threat performer, mainly as
a passer and kicker. When he
first came here, he was groomed
as a tailback, being rated almost
on a par with Johnny Cook, but
his coolness uner fire goon con-.
vinced coaches that he would be
better as a blocking back. 'As a
mere 17-year old freshman, Bobby
made third string All-Seutheast
ern and played well throughout
the entire season. The stocky 170-
pounder was a fierece tackler, a
sure pass receiver, and an exeel
lent runner and passer, converting
himself to tailback in the Tennes
see Tech fray, and dashing 60
vards for a touchdown.

By JOHN EDWIN POPE ' .
An announcement by €oach Wally Butts from the ath
letic office Friday said that letters had been awarded t:
25 players and two managers from the 1943 Georgia
football team.
Letters were awarded on a basis
of playing time in games, with
hustling and hard work through
out the season considered in a
major light. .
Those winning letters were:
Tailback: Johnny Cook, Rome,
Ga.
Blocking Backs: Bobby Hague,
Neptune Beach, Fla.; Bill Chonco,
Detroit, Mich.
Wingbacks: “Rabbit” Smith,
Palatka, Fla.; Edgar Bratten, La
fayette, Tenn. -
Fullbacks: Billy Rutland, Co
lumbus, Ga.; Pierce Barrett, Jack
sonville, Fa.; Joe Hollingsworth,
Lynch, Ky.
Ends: Carlso Phillips, Valdosta,
Ga.; Gene Benton, Florence, S. C.;
Bill Perry, Cordele, Ga.; Reid
Moseley, Huntsville, Ala.; Henry
Byrd, Athens, Ga.; “Buck” Har
ris, Norfolk, Va.
Tackles: “Beefy” Baves, Elber
ton, Ga.; Bobby Belk, Cairo, Ga.;
Fred Burk, Neweastle, Ind.; Wal
ter Simons, Seafort, Del.; Paul
Smith, Griffin, Ga. b
Guards: “Mike” Castronis, Jack
sonville, Fla.; Dickie Cox, Cam
den, .S. C.; George Garasic,
Youngstown, Ohio; George Jerni
gan, Springfield, Tenn.
Centers: Junior Meeks, Macon,
Ga.; Morris Janko, Atlanta, Ga. '
Two Managers '
Besides ‘the twenty-five rplayers,
Lyman Buttolph, Jr., of Hagers
town, Md., and William McKenna,
of Marietta Ga., won letters as
managers of the '43 gridders.
Many of the lettermen are 4-F
and may return next year to give
the University of Georgia a strong
aggregation of performers, mostly
experienced. And some of those
who did not win letters will be
back. All who didn’t get letters
were awrded numerals by the Uni
versity.
Coach Butts announced the let
termen shortly before leaving
Athens on a short trip.

He:llh ‘(omz\i's:ioner
Calling tuberculosis “ine of the
most crucial health problems in
Ciarke county,” Dr. W. W. Brown,
city -county health commissioner,
urges all citizens to buy Christ
mas Seals to make possible the
expanded wartime work of the
Tuberculosis Association.
«phe association is performing &
vital job in this county and the
association’s only means of sup
port is the annual Christmas Seal
Sale,” he said. “Eyeryone should.
buy Seals a 8 generously as possi
ple, for the nsed of tuberculosis
econtrol was never greater.” :
Many activities of the Tubercu
losig program of the local De
partment of Health are depend
ant upon the financial support and
cooperation of the Clarke County
Tuberculosis Association.
The expense of all X-Rays made
during the vyear in routine
clinic procedure is defrayed by
the Tuberculosis Association.
Money is-also appmpriated in
approved cases for the segrega~
tion of patients who would other
wise be direct sources of infection
for other members of the family .
The Association cooperates with
the Health Department in its
every effort to eradieate tubercu
losis in Athens and Clarke coun=

Barrett,” weighign scant more
than Hague, was a good 4 inches
taller, and was one of the bhest
running backs Coach Butts had
during the football campaign.
Playing at Jackson High 'Sehool
in Jacksonville, he came here with
another enviable record the like
of Hague's. He soon convinced
fans that he would be depended
upon for a great deal of ground
gaining during ’43, and he was
one of the fastest backs en the
Georgia team. But, suffering a
dislocated arm in a secrimmage
session a week before the open
ing game, Barrett was expected
to be out for the entire gseason.
He c¢ame back, though, to provide
Coach Butts with one of his best
line-plungers ever seen at Georgia
for a freshman.

With Hague's and Barrett's leav

many other of their admirers,

it is hoped that the two will con

It was most difficult to eheck
on the masses of the Netherlands
Indies. I heard but one repert on
that sector and it was an indefi
nite indication that many of the
natives, dissatisfied with the form
er regime, were collaborating with
the invaders from the north. 4
The Cairo conference came at a
most opportune time. While re
ports indicated that the Asiatic
masses within occupied areas held
the expectation that the United
Nations = would eventually save
them from slavery, there was a
fear that they might lose hope
if we neglected the Pacific theates

day comm{mique mentioned only
one instance of an encounter with
Japanese planes over a wide
spread arc. In that case, Thunder
bolts shot down four out of 24 en~
emy flighters over Wewak, New
Guinea, without loss to them
selves.
The communique’s list of aerial
actions featured a destructive 179-
ton bombardment of Cape Glou
‘cester in the western New Britain
Island sector which now jis in dan

Normally the number would run
around 100. T 3
Amphibious Attacks Expected
The Imperial Command. may
have sent in no aerial reinforce
ments because of the dispropor
tionate losses, or may hayve - kept
them in reserve to meet potential
new Allied offensives elsewhere.
Informed Dutch sources report
ed the enemy apparently expected
a British amphibious attack on
Sumatra, guardian of the sea ap
proches to Singapore. Only other
route to that former RBritish naval
base is down the Malayan Penin
sula, over the same pathway the
Japanese followed nearly two
years ago. It is possible that Lord
Louis Mountbatten, who recently
returned to his command-.in India
from the Cairo conferences on
Pacific war strategy, may be plan
ning to strike from both directions
and squeeze Singapore between the
pincers.
More speculation was. . directed
at the expected Allied invasion of
the Marshall Islands in 'the wmid-
Pacific from the recently captured
Gilbert Islands. Such an invasion
would bring a _demonsiration of
the lessons American commanders
said they learned in the costly
eapture of Tarawa Atoll, where
1,026 Marines were killed.

Carry Plans Out
Considerable numbers of pris
oners were, taken as Gen. Clark’s
headquarters reported that the on
slaught in .the central sector was
“proceeding according to plan.”
Don Whitehead, Associated Press
correspondent who witnessed the
start of the big offensive near
Mignano, said:
“Never had American troops
Bone into an attack behind such
an artillery barrage. The ground
trembled and a storm o demioniac
sound filled the valleys and poured
over the mountains. &
“The heavens were lighted with
gun flashes and & newspaper could
easily have been read in the light.
The artillery of one group alone
hurled 4,000,000 pounds of ex
plosives and steel into the narrow

that ‘“terrific demoralization’ had

The accomplishment of these un

any one breed of cattle. Some
dairymen who do not have pure
bred cows also made records which
were especially notevorthy.
. “However, the record of the
Jersey breed in Georgia is especi
ally impressive. In six of the
twelve months ending July 31,
1943, Georgia had more Jersey
cows on the Register of Merit

in the Utfited States. In the re

second three times, third twice
and fourth once. Another measure

possessed by any other state”
