By J. H. ANDERSON Associated Press Sports IVnwr KANSAS CITY, Nov. 30 (rtP)--' There were NO unanimous selections this year for the ALL-BIG SIX football team compiled by the ASSOCIATED PRESS after a canvass of coaches, athletic directors and sports writers in the conference. The title race, an open affair, which was undecided until after the closing games on Thanksgiving, and the comparatively few outstanding Individual performers, made selection difficult and undoubtedly accounted for the wide range of choices.

Nebraska, which placed seven men on the 1928 team after sweeping through the conference undefeated and untied for the first championshin of the new loop, placed only two men this year despite the winning of tho title again. The 1029 Cornhuskers, losing five of the men who made the brasKa attack, able on defense, a key man around whom the plays revolved smoothly; speedy, shifty, a drop or place kicker, a punter, a passer in short everything a football player should be. James Bausch was the sensation of the season. Followers of the conference knew "Waldorf was good, expected Sloan to stand out and recognized Richards as a good tackle, but in the two games in which this sophomore Kansas back was not hampered by Injuries, he caused even the rooters for the opposition to stand up and cheer him. A lull season of play of the type displayed this year by Bausch and critics concede he will make a serious bid for All-American recognition.

Although he played fullback, he was shifted to a halfback position on "WJOlarn Braucher team last year; beset by injuries and under a new coaching system brought by Dana X. Blblo who succeeded Ernest Bearg, were not the devastating crew of 1928. From Missouri Missouri which started like a champion, faltered and then regained its stride late in the season, placed trce men. Kansas, Kansas Aggies, and Oklahoma placed two each. Iowa State, which ended on the bottom without a single conference victory, did not place a man on either tho first or second team but had not Paul halfback, been laid low by injuries after the first game of the season, he no doubt would have been a the all-star team, leaving- Sloan at his usual fullback position.

Smith Popular Smith, Missouri center, who rates a first team berth, is che third of three brothers who hcwe played stellar football for tho Tigers at'cen- ter in the last eight years. The lightest nvn in the line of the first all- star team. Smith was seldom worried by the larger and heavier opponents he faced. He polled nearly all first team votes for the pivot position. Oklahoma and Missouri claim the wing positions as last year, but this time it is Keith Hursley of Missouri who pairs along with Tom Churchill.

Miller Brown was the Missouri end a year ago. Hursley and Churchill are tall, rangy, speedy; each weighs about 190 pounds. They make an ideal pair for the flank posts. Churcu- 111 may not have played up to his standard of a year ago but was good enough to give team selectors little worry when they considered selection of ends. The Football Purists TN the light of the Carnegie Foun- datlon's findings about colleges and universities where" proselyting -and subsidization'of athletes was common, and about those where sports were conducted on a pure and basis, a few of the season's scores provide interesting conjecture.

In the southern conference Tulane, of New Orleans was given a clean bill of health. Tulane skimmed through the season without a defeat, rolling up 25S points to the enemy's 45, and numbered among the opponents were Texas Aggies, Georgia Tech and Georgia. In the same conference. 1 Tennessee, under indictment for unholy athletic practices, likewise) went along unbeaten, scoring 2701 to the opponents' 13, VanderbiJc I and Alabama being about strongest teams -that the Vols had to face. Beating Wicked Proselyters 'TPULAXE beat two teams that che Foundation charged with un-1 comely practice, Georgia Tech and Georgia.

Last year Georgia Tech was perhaps the best team In the country. But during the 1929 season Tech took it on the chin every worthy foe who Happened along. The inference seems to be that last year the sharp practice of proselyting was working 100 per cent for Tech and this season the system didn't click. It appears', if DID YOU KNOW THAT-- A FTER the Chicago-Indiana game, Alonzo Stagg wrote to Pat Page and told him he was sorry the Maroons had to beat the Hoosiers. Pat is Stagg's former pupil and assistant.

Chicago also beat the University of Washington and the Carnegis Foundation listed Chicago as athletically pure. and Washington as one of those sneaky old subsidizers, Gene N'ormile. one of Dempsey's former managers, dropped five grand on the -Votre Dame-Trojan game and took to his bed with the flu the next day. Moy. nlhan.

the N'otre Darae center who broke a leg (his own) In the North western game, is the son of Chief John T. Moy- ninari' of the Twelfth Battalion of the Chicago Fire Department. Dempsey isn't losing anything- he. gets Plenty for every bout he and fs kept busy Besides, he is said to have received 50 for broadcasting rights for his fights at the Chicago Coliseum. nice, and clean.

If proselyting and 'subsidization are gauges of success In athletics, the Foundation- Is correct, that tliis there must be something- very subsidization.

Cor- upon for tile production of winning ne Vale and Tulane, then, would teams. to be merely schools where good athletes Jove to go Poor Princeton I After a close battle with Broadstone, Orin Tackwell of the Kansas Aggies won the right to pair with Rich ards as first team tackle. Tackwell adds to his ability as a linemaa, the knack of booting the oval over' tho bars either by drop or place kick and this season won games for the Aggies by his accurate to'e.

On Second 'JL'eam Kenneth Bauman of the Kansas Ag- gies and George Atkeson of Kansas guard positions although Koster unanimous choice for the first eleven. On the second team Nebraska has four places, Kansas and Kansas Ag- gies three each and Oklahoma one. Two Repeaters Only Tom Churchill, Oklahoma end- end Clair Sloan, Nebraska back, are repeaters from last season. Raymond Richards, Nebraska tackle, and Johu Waldorf, Missouri back, rose from second team places last year to the- first eleven. Marion Broadstone, Nebraska tackle, who won a first team place a year ago after a close battle with Richards and Munn, dropped back to the second team by a narrow margin.

Sloan and James Bausch, Kansas sophomore back, made the first team despite injuries which kept them on the sidelines half the season. They were among tho few outstanding grid- aters and played such excellent football the time they were in the game, no all-star aggregation would be complete without them. The first team is a heavy one, the line averaging 192 pounds ana the back field four pounds less. Last year the lice averaged 192 pounds and the backfield four pounds less. Speed, however, has not'been sacrificed for weight in the selection of the eleven men to be honored this seasqn.

Might of the eleven men on the all- star team have played their last Intercollegiate football. Bausch and Atkeson are sophomores; Smith is junior. TValdorf Real Star John Waldorf, Missouri captain, is one, of the most versatile football players ever developed In the Missouri of Nebraska and Gentry of Oklahoma, who were placed on the second team. not far behind in the voting. Consistently good players on the offense, these frequently through the line to block punts, tackle ball carriers behind the line of scrimmage or recover fumbles.

Frank Crider, Oklahoma captain. Alex Nigro and George Wiggins, Kansas Aggie backs, were so close together in the tabulation for- a halfback position, only Crider's experience pulled him through to a first team choice. The other two gained places on the second team. Crider is a capable man to join the Sloan- Bausch-Waldorf combination and this quartet, working together, would give any opposing team a hard afternoo'n. George Farley, Nebraska captain and halfback, is named leader of a second team which Is n'o weak aggregation.

The car, owned by 3 Mr. Combs who had just driven here from Springfield, 111., was not badly damaged. The second alarm, at 9:25 o'clock, called the firefighters to 702 Bertley street to the home owned by Cleeton. Damage to this prperty estimated at $1,200 by Fire John Crews.
