Bama Claims 3 SEC Berths

(Continued from Page Seven) Norwood Hodges to blocking back. Tew was outstanding as the best line crusher in the league. Barney Poole's (200) pass-snagging feats and his all-around brilliance pushed him into the all-star limelight still another time. There was no question of Charley Conerly's (184) excellence as Mississippi made her greatest contributions to Southeastern conference football. Bobby Davis (220) at tackle and Bill Healey (210) at guard anchored an almost impregnable Georgia Tech line, the best Dixie has seen in years. Kynes Barely Misses First String Jay Rhodenmyre (195) turned in a sterling performance at center that was even better than his terrific 1946 job. Still he barely beat out Jimmy Kynes (203), a Florida sophomore who shone both offensively and defensively, and Alabama's huge Vaughn Mancha who couldn't quite match his 1945 rating. Vanderbilt's John North (195) was the revolving point for the Commodore rebuilding process. He was a slashing tackler, a wicked blocker and a smashing runner on the end-around. Y. A. Tittle, (188) was the heart of a fine Louisiana State team. He was a brilliant passer, a good runner and a wizard in the Tiger T formation. When he was out of the game, the Bengals couldn't click. Tittle barely nosed out Georgia's Johnny Rauch (190) who was a nailing passer and a coach on the field for the Trippi-less Bulldogs. Alabama's Rebel Steiner (190) returned from Japan in time to make a brilliant comeback and almost hit the first team. Mississippi's Bill Erickson (207) was the finest tackle Mississippi has fielded since Bruiser Kinard. Mammoth Herb St. John (215) repeated his 1946 performance at guard for Georgia but was in slightly better competition. Leo (Tiger) Parutis (180) played a savage game at guard for Kentucky. Ralph Slaten (200) at tackle and George Brodnax (202) at end were other mainstays in the sparkling Georgia Tech line. Brodnax was excellent as a pass receiver. Forbes Also Makes Grade Bobby Forbes, Florida's flashy back and one of the nation's leading scorers, could not be overlooked despite the repeated poor showing of the Gators. Speedy Harper Davis, perhaps the fastest back in the conference, shouldered the offensive burden for Mississippi State. J. B. Proctor, Tennessee's aerial artist—who hit 'em in the end zones—had to be shifted to fullback to get him on the squad but he couldn't be left off. Proctor barely got the nod over Georgia Tech's Frank Ziegler—a terror through the line. Davidson Mentioned Other backs not named on either the first or second teams shone just as brightly on occasion. They included Travis Tidwell of Auburn, kept off the team by his ankle which sidelined him defensively and which would have put a less courageous lad in a wheel-chair;
