The east took over for the second consecutive season with seven places, one each going to Navy and Pennsylvania, liie re maining sections of the country each scored once, Alabama for the south, Oklahoma A. & M for the southwest, St. Mary's for the west and Ohio State for the mid-west. The one selection gave the mid-west its poorest showing In the history of the poll. Two Repeaters Two of the Ail-Americans were repeaters Fullback Felix (Doc) Blanchard and Halfback Glenn Davis, both of the Army eleven which wound up its sec ond consecutive undefeated campaign by besting Navy. An other Cadet, Tackle DeWitt Coul ter, moved up from the second team. Blanchard, the nation's second I -J ' Jj4 PACKID AlK-TITf CWjJlfVVB NIVI MltS TO highest scorer this season, was the standout choice of the vot ers. Of a possible 1,089 points, the bull from Bishopville, S. C received 1.040. He was named on all but five first team ballots, getting a second team nod on one of those.

ADVANCE TICKET UCLANs BEATEN Glendalc, Cal., Dec. 5 (U.R) University of California at Los Angeles Cagers met a 34 to 31 defeat at the sharpshootlng hnnds of the Carrol Sl.amrocks, here last night in the Bruin's opening game of the season. Advance ticket sales point to a record-breaking crowd at the five man battle royal card headlining tomorrow night's Medford armory wrestling matches, Promoter Mack Lillard said today. Several choice scats will be held for box office sale at the arena, it was stated. Lillard has lined up what promises to be the best free-for-all ever presented here when he throws the Gray Mask, Rough Rufus Jones, Pete Belcastro, Gust Johnson, Joe Lynam and Angelo Martinclll in the ring at the same time. Because the Mask and Jones are dreaded more than the oth ers as foes, it is expected they will be attacked by the rest of the wrestlers in an effort to get them out first. Few fans expect Jones, the Mask and Belcastro, the standout ruffians, to stick together because of lack of trust for each other. Johnson, Martinelli and Lyman have all met Jones, Belcastro and the Mask in previous matches and lost any love they may have had for them because of the rough treatment they received. They are expected to stick closely to gether in an effort to dish out a trouncing to the "meanies." Three regulation matches will follow with pairings to be de cided by elimination In the bat tle royal. Each match will be for three ten-minute rounds or one fall. Two referees will be used, Lillard said. m,wn ,uir-.M1Wii Ud, srlA' sViiiaMii I irtniin'l toutin g J Rpm We Are Open 9amto Until Christmas Par Stores I Main & Holly Phone 5550 Sport Chips BY Harry Chipman Mall Tribune Sports Editor Medford sport fans are getting a much-needed rest after the strenuous high school football schedule and are getting ready for a 21-gnme schedule of bas ketball games which starts with Eugene here Dec. 14 and 15.

CANUCKS, MONARCHS -- WIN HOCKEY CLASHES By United Press The top-ranking Vancouver Canucks quickly took command ot the ice to defeat the Holly wood Wolves 7-1 last night .in an intcrsectional Pacific Coast league hocky game, while the Los Angeles Monarchs stopped the Oakland Oaks 7-4. L OF COAST LEAGUE y Columbus, O., Dec. 5 (U.R) The American and National leagues, baseball's big-time part ners for almost half a century, faced the issue of the "eternal triangle" today whether or not to admit the growing and am bitious Pacific Coast league into their company. Officails of the Pacific Coast circuit, led by their president, Clarence (Pants) Rowland, voted unanimously last night to seek recognition as a major league club in a sensational develop ment to the annual mid-winter meeting of the minor leagues. Chandler's Move The next move was up to Base ball Commisisoner Albert B (Happy) Chandler, thus far one of the few absentees among the 1.100-odd registrants at thn ha CO. ball conclave. Chandler, who had a previous engagement at r.nnic ville, Ky., yesterday, must decide wun r-restaem William Harridge of the American league and Ford Frick of the National league, whether such an expansion would be in the best interests of baseball. President William G. Bramham of the National Asso ciation of Minor Leagues also will have a voice in the matter. Would Make Problems Acceptance of the coast circuit into the majors would create several immediate n r n h 1 p m c which would make amendments to the major-minor agreement necessary. Although mnct pnoct clubs are owned independently, the Los Angeles franchise be longs to the Chicago Cubs of the national league. Presently there is nothing to prevent one major league club from owning another. Also of concern to th nation' baseball fans was how the world championship could be decided with three pennant winning teams eligible to play In the an nual posi-season series. .
