Klamath Falls, who played with Astoria for the state champion ship tonight, failed to place any on Uhe first team, due, It was declared, to more toam work on the part of the squad. ' ' Ted Sarpola and Robert Anet were chosen for the forward and guard positions from the Astoria quintet, Snrpola receiving the highest vote of any players named. Ernest Miles of Tho Dalles received the next high-1 est vote for guard position. Wayne Scott, a member of the 1933 all-state team, repeated for the forward po sition, although the vote waa close. The choice for center position was not unanimous, but Douglas Both well was given the largest vote. He la a member of the upper Columbia river aggregation which took fourth position In the tourney. The second team vote was more scattered, although Leland Canessa of Astoria rated the highest vote and won a berth at forward with Clyde Dickinson of Franklin high school of Portland. Derrlll Miller of Klamath Falls was chosen center, while D. Wright of Eugene and B. Dick of The Dalles were ohosen for the guard positions. The all-stars were named for the positions In which they played, which of necessity eliminated several ood men who would have been named In other positions. Thirty votes were oast for the players. Consideration was given to scoring, floor work and general ability on offensive and de fensive playing. Many players wore given .honorable mention, chief among which were Dean Galloway of Pendleton and Egelhoff of Klamath Falls, forwards; Jewell of Franklin, William O'Don nell, Columbia, and Danner of Eu gene, centers: and Harold Wright of Astoria, Grozaninl and Scrogglns of Klamath Falls and Cast le man of Columbia. forwarded to the national associa tion, little hope was expressed In the mooting that a change would be made. The Junior baseball teams formerly were selected by high schools and counties. The new ruling provides for one team for each American Le gion post, It was said, and the argu ment was advanced that the larger cities would thus receive an over whelming advantage by reason of a multitude of candidates for the teams.
