Kin, the nntion'
sports experts
have derided tha
the New York
Yankeea' feat of
winning tha Amer
ican lenguo chain-
pionahip And the
world series was
the greatest team
achievement of the
year.
Exactly 100 out
of the 302 votes east in the second
annual Associated Press poll of sports
writers and editors went to the ion
kees. The college football teams of
Colgate and Southern California, the
pro outfit of the Oreen Hay rarkers.
the United Slates Olympic track and
field squad, and California a all-con-quering
crew, finished badly distanced
also-rans to the Yankees.
Colgate Second
Colgate's football array, undofent
ed. untied and unscored upon, finish
ed in second lihico with 33 votes, six
more than Southern California's mule-
akin warriors.
Apparently it was tho Yankees'
consistent performance over tho long
stretch from Anri to tlctober tnai
turned tho tide of bnllots toward
them rather than to any one football
team. Tho Yankees played 100 gamea
where football elevens aro asked to
idav nine or ten at tho moat.
Here's how the leaders finished In
the balloting:
1. New York Yankeea, baaeball 100.

AiiKg UJdrikson nppnrcntly was on

At Houston the athlete's sister,

A typewritten statement was Is

Miss Nagurski
MINNEAPOLIS. Dec. 21. (VP)
The "I Told You So's" are plenty
thick around here. What they menu
Is thnt they knew all the time thnt
Hronko Nagurski was one of the foot-
nil greats.
Minnesota fans didn't realize how
much they missed "The Big Nag' un
til they began to read about his feats
s a member of the national cham
pionship Chicago Bears.
This romlnder, and memories of
Nagurski's prodigious performances as
an All'America player with the Uni-
crsity of Minnesota has opened
fresh sources of sports chatter dur
ing the lean winter season.
They recall how Nagurski, as a
timid lad. awkwardly went through
the first pnees of collegiate football
fter matriculating at Minnesota In
lftJ7 fresh from the iron mines of
northern Minnesota.
The "Big Nog" came to the surface
with a carlood of iron ore once too
often and was whisked away to per
form for the (tupliers under C. W.
Doc Speors, then head coach.
One of the most powerful men In
Minnesota gridiron history, the 210
pound "Bronk" could ploy any posi
tion at various times performing nt
guard, tackle, end and finally full
back. Yes, and he was tough. He played
full game with a broken thumb be
cause he was "afraid Spears would
erk me." He finished one season with
his bark strapped fn a steel and lea
ther broce lo protect some frocturcd
rilm nnd an injured spine.
hideline nhserrers recall the first
me Wpcra tried him at fullback.
Taken nut of the line, he mnde eight
yards through center and looked apol
ogetically nt the doctor.
One of these days (iopher support
ers may head an expedition to the
mine region not for beds of Iron ore
but for a counterpart of the one and
only "Nag."

Tom McKi trick, ex-Eugene high
school football star now attending
Southern Oregon Normal school at
Ashland, is spending the Christmas
vacation here. McKitrick enjoyed a
successful season in football this fall,
being one of the outstanding players
iu the Son's back field.
A lady called fn to ask who was
elected tiie most viiunble player on
the Eugene high school football team
this yenr. John Hill, playing his lust
year for Eugene high, was elected by
his teammates to that honor. His
name has been engraved on the silver
trophy John's brother, Joe Hill, nteo
played for Eugene this yenr and both
wer'e important factors in the team's
success.
Jnmcs S. Slioeby. Sonttle sports
writer for the United Press, describes
the most stirring plnya of the foot'
ball seitson jnxt closed.
"Those who saw the Oregon
U. C. L. A. game at Portland
never will forget the final 10 sec
onds of play. Oregon led, 7 to 6,
and the Uclas had the ball on
their own eight-yard line after
Intercepting Elmer Brown's pass"
says Sheohy. "Mike Francovlch
hurled a final, desperate pass to
'Pants' Livesay, sub end, who
snared the slippery ball, eluded
Brown and Bowerman, and ran 75
yards for the winning touchdown.
"And the memory of Franco
vloh telling the Bruin student
body the following Monday, 'I told
you we'd win it was Just a
Cook's tour.'
"The Uclas found the situation
oan be reversed. With two sec
onds left to play, Johnny Eubank,
W. S. C. substitute fullback,
kicked a 47-yard field goal that
eased the Bruins out of a possible
tie for the coast championship on
Thanksgiving day.
"These were the outstanding
plays of the season. Other fond
memories will be:
"Mark Temple's 65-yard return
of Keith Davis' punt In the mud
at Bell field, Corvallls, that
brought Oregon a 12 to 6 victory

The public market hud them priced
down to 13 cents on No. 1 birds and
12 cents on the mediums. Those grow
ers going around to sell individually
and directly to the customers were
said to be selling at even lower prices.
There was reaction among shops
retailing, with results that prices
generally were quoted at IS and 15
cents for the day a 2-cent drop.
Prices are still uncertain and
Thursday niny bring another change.
