(Notre Dame) The fact that we have given places on the All-American team only three members of the championship Har vard aggregation two in the baek- fleld and one in the line may look odd But, all things considered, it isn’t odd. Some persons are of th»- belief that because Harvard grabbed off the. Eastern honors the champion ship team ought to be composed mostly of Harvard men. We don’t. As a team, Harvard ranked as on** of the greatest that ever was welded together. As individuals, only three seemed to outrank their rivals in the East and West. In making the fullback selection for our All-American team there was no hesitancy. Brlckley stands head and shoulders over any rival, and Is the unanimous selection for the Job. Craig, like Brlckley, ranks as the peer of those who played at the half back position during the past season As an all-round halfback his equal seldom nas been seen. The selection of a mate on the first ele.ven for Craig Involved more con sideration— and more cussing than that concerning any other position. With Mahan, of Harvard; Guyon, of Carlisle and Norgren, of Chicago, to choose from, each van king among the greatest men that ever wore a head gear, it was quite a sizeable task. Finally we settled upon Mahan, solely because he seems to excel slightly in punting. Demis, at quarterback, rounds out a wonderful backfield combination. As a field general for Notre Dame in- proved himself a wonderful player throughout the season. He Is her alded as me greatest man at handling the forward pass in the West. Des- Jardien, the Chicago center, like Brlckley, Is without a worthy rival. Merrillat, of the Army, and Hog sett, of Dartmouth, are elected to places on the first eleven because of wonderful, consistent work through out the season. Pontius, of Michi gan. and Hitchcock, of Harvard, rank as the best men that essayed the tackle roles. Brown, the burly Navy guard and great placement goal kicker, is the best all-round man who played at that position during the year, with Kellar, the Wisconsin giant, taking next place and deserving the posi tion as Brown’s mate as All-Ameri can guard.

Farnsworth, Sporting Editor The Georgian: Dear Bill—Received your letter a few days ago requesting a story- from trie as to my doings since leaving At lanta. I hardly know how to atari this, but will do the best I can to give you at least a varied account of same. Of course, you have all the dopo on our series at Knoxville after our departure from Atlanta, but I might state that it was another case of “a I short series is no proof of the strength ' of a ball club,” as we had a hard time getting a draw with them in the three games played. Of course, the boys were mighty tired after our hard finish, and did not play with the dash and vim that characterized their work during the last two weeks >f play, for if they had it would have been curtains for the Class D outfit from the start. But in speaking of this I do not w'ant to take any cred it from them, as they were strength ened with other players from the Ap palachian. and no *ubt were the class of their league After leaving Knoxville, I came di rectly North and Joined the inde pendent team at this place, w'hich was at that time making history in inde pendent circles. 1 played ten games with them before the close of their season. I hit an even .400 and fielded 1,000. and therefore had the honor of leading the club in hitting. We trimmed the Indianapolis (Federal League club) two out of three, and this was the club that won the pen nant In the Federal. The Pittsburg Federals managed to win one game out of five from us. The Indianapolis club really had about a second-divi sion club in a (Mass A league, but the Pittsburg club—well, the least said, the better—about Class C would catch them. This club here won 53 games, lost 7 and tied 2. meeting all comers, re gardless of class, even holding the Giants to a 7-to-4 score, and mak ing one of the greatest records ever established in independent baseball. After the final game here we were rented to a ten-day vacation at the favorite summer resort of Pennsyl vania. namely. Conneaut Lake,-which has some beautiful scenery and is one of the prettiest lakes in the country, abounding in all kinds of game fish, j We certainly enjoyed ourselves to the j limit at this resort, having every thing essential to do so at our com mand. due to the liberality of Mr. Brown, owner of the club, who saved no expense to make our stay there one long to be remembered. We were not very successful In the fishing line, as it was our ambition to land some big ones, but from two co four pound bass were our limit, al though they landed one muscallonge w-hile we were there that weighed 51 pounds—but we were not in on the killing After returning from this vacation | I resumed duty with the Bessemer and Lake Erie Railroad at this point, j it being the chief iron-ore carrying road of the United States Steel Cor poration. I have been kept pretty busy ever since. This road has its headquarters here, and rny experi ence during the winter months fo; the past few years, also before my debut as a professional ball player, has earned for me the title of Jack- of-All-Trades, and one day mav find me* in the dispatcher’s office, etc. I expect to continue here until it is time to report for spring practice, which I wish was to-morrow, and then I hope to take up where I left off the past season. Now that the official averages of the Southern League have been re leased, I can’t help but feel just a little proud of being declared the leading hitter for the second time in two years in a league the caliber of the Southern, where there are always so many really good pitchers as has been the case since I Joined their ranks. Now that I have been honored with the position of captain of the Crack ers for the coming season by Man ager Smith, I expect to be on the job from the jump and hope to do as well (If not better) than during the past season. While the loss of Smith, Bis- land, Conzelman and company is quite a blow, I look for the Crackers agaip to be a formidable bunch, ca pable of holding their own with any of them and in the running all the time. Let’s hope that the never-die spir it w T ill continue to be the motfo through the 1914 season, and that some more baseball history will be made before the curtain is rung down on the same.

J IM JEFFRIES, former heavy weight champion, witnessed the Cross-Rivers battle in Los An geles on Thanksgiving Day. Yester day he was asked to give his opinion of the Mexican’s chances against Champion Willie Ritchie. Jeff sum med up the entire Turkey Day fight in the following story, and declares Joe deserves another crack at the ti tle. By James J. Jeffries. I OS ANGELES, Dec. 4.—Joefliv- ers fought like a champion, and his victory over Leach Crass wag a natural result. Any time that Rivers puts up such a fight he i9 worth a bet against any lightweight living. It was the best battle I ever saw. and in going back over the fight by rounds I am unable to offer a single criticism of his tactics or of his con duct in the ring. Throughout the battle he kept a cool head on his shoulders and used more brains in directing his efforts than I previously had given him cred it for having. He fought a perfect battle in every respect. Refusing to be rattled or to lose his head by the taunts of Cross, carefully planning his battle as he went along and box ing and fighting at his best form, ne was invincible. There never was a ii.’ne when I feared that he might lose, especially after the first three rounds Rivers' one big f^ult in the pas^ has been his carelessness in the ring, his pronenesg to lose his head when stung and leave himself open to at tack by a wise ring general. Cross used every device known to him in an effort to get Rivers’ goat, but the Mexican was steady at all times and refused to fall for any of it. In my opinion, this was one of the big fac tors in his victory. I can not criticise the battle that Cross put up. He fully lived up to his reputation for cleverness, brains, punch and courage, and is entitled to a great deal of credit for the showing he made against odds. The battle tha; (.Toss put up would win nine battles out of ten I can not say that he was outclassed, but Rivers proved him self cleverer, faster, a better puncher, and equally as cool headed. Any other sort of a battle would have produced different results tor Rivers, no doubt. While he was al ways leading by at least a slight margin. Cross was ever alert, watch ing constantly for a chance to get over his right and win the fight in a single punch, and he was willing to mix it and take a chance. He is a shrewd ring general, and Rivers had to keep his head with him all the time to assure victory for himself. Rivers clearly won the right to de mand a return match with Ritchie by his showing, and I would like to see these boys matched for a bout here.
