EAST FAVORITE IN ALL-STAR SHINER GAME CHARITY GAME SET FOR NEW ORLEANS Jinx Favors Westerns In Spite Of Talented East- ern Performers BY MORTIMER KREEGER NEW ORLEANS, Jan. 2.—C?)— The east will have the big name players but the west will have its old-time jinx working tomorrow in the Shriners’ annual all-star charity game transferred here from San Francisco. The Easterners, with four men from the all-America to the west’s three and four from the second team to the west’s one, are decid- ed favorites. But they’re pratical- ly always the favorites—yet have- n’t won since 1937 and have taken only five victories to their oppon- ents’ ten. The very presence of publicized players on the eastern squad has made western teams go out de- termined to show ’em up. Which they usually do. Eastern all-Americas include two guards, Endicott Peabody 11 of Har- vard and Ralph File of Pittsburgh, and a pair of backs, Bruce Smith of Minnesota and Bill Dudley DUKE GAINS IN ROSE BOWL of Virginia.
