3rt Sooners, Tigers dominate UP all-Big Six Tueadav, November 23. 1913 LINCOLN JOUKNAL New champions place five; Missouri wins four berths Cyclones, Jayhawks place lone man; NU's Hazard named to 2nd BY SAM SMITH. KANSAS CITY, Mo. (UP), Five Oklahoraans, four Missourians, a Kansan and an Iowa Stater gained places Monday on the United Press All Big Six team, tabulation of a poll of sportswriters and coaches of the conference revealed. Only a war-time season such as the one now closing could have produced such an all-star team, top-heavy with the talent of two schools, one of which, Missouri, could gain no better than a second-place tie.

All line positions went either to forwards of the championship Oklahoma team or to Missourians, Each of those teams placed one man--veterans of three years of college experience--in the backfield. The all-conference team: W. G. Woeten, Oklahoma, and John Morton, Missouri, ends. Lee Kennon, Oklahoma, and Alfred Anderson, Missouri, tackles.

Gale FulRhum, Oklahoma, and Bob ElKelberRcr. Missouri, guards. Bob Mayfield, Oklahoma, center. Don Reece. Missouri: Bob Brumley.

Oklahoma: Howard Ttppee, Iowa State, and Bob George, Kansas, hacks. Balloting Close at Center. Reece, Brumley and Kennon were unanimous choices for positions on the mythical eleven. Closest balloting was for spots in the center of the line, with Nebraska's Frank Hazard, Missouri's Jimmy Kekeris, Kansas' Julius Penney, and Iowa State's Charles Wright pushing for guard and tackle berths and Kansas' Charles Hird and Missouri's Ralph Stewart fighting for the center spot. In the backfield, Derald Lebow, the great young Sooner back, and Bill Dellastatious, i i a whose loss by the injury route may have cost the Tigers a title, were within a vote or two of the laurel winners.

Reece Chosen Captain. Reece, member of the all-Big Six team for the last two years, was named captain of the 1943 version. The mighty "Bull" not only proved himself still a potent line bucker and backer but a sharp passer as well in this, his fourth conference season. The forward wall averages almost 188 pounds per man, the backfield about 190. In experience, the all stars range from four year men like Reece and Brumley--onetime All Southwest conference standout--down to men with no previous varsity experience like George, Mayfield, Eigelberger and Anderson.

That, again, is a war year peculiarity. Huskers Place Hazard. Second team berths were filled by a preponderance of Missouri men, indicating that the experts preferred not to look so much at the near-final standings but at the men themselves. It indicated also that lack of reserves, not starting teams, might have had something to do with game results: The second team: Georpe Dick, Kansas, and Bert Ehern. Missouri, ends Charles Wrlsht, Iowa State, and Jimmy Ki-kerls, Missouri, tackles.

Frank Hazard, Nebraska, and Julius Penney. Kansas, Ralph Stew-art, Missouri, center Derald Lcbow, Oklahoma; Bill DcHnst.1- tlous, Missouri; Qeorpe Cast. Tcraa State, and Paul Collins, Missouri, backs. Navy Men. Four of the first team members are naval trainees--Kennon, Fulghum, George and Mayfield.

Brumley is listed as an instructor. Wooten is deferred and Tippee an electrical engineer in senior. Reece and Morton are enrolled in r.avy programs but have not yet been called. Eigelberger is in 1-C and Anderson is an IS year old fresh- Bowling title to Bierman's Auto Bierman's Auto Electric keglers copped first place in the finals of the team event at the state women's bowling tournament at Lincoln.

Dear Gang: It was the same old story last Saturday, Cornhuskers again bit the dust and this time it was the Iowa Hawkeyes that turned in a command perforcanee with a 33 to 13 victory, their first on N.U. soil in 25 winters. Iowa's line made the big difference and Hawkeye subs were better than the kids Coach Lcwmdowski was able to toss hack at the invaders. It was a swell ball game until the last few minutes of the third period when the Hawks got to "icnra started off with a touchdown early in the opening quarter, gaining possession on the Scarlet 43 thru a pass interception. Bill Gallagher's 23 yard run set up the score with Stephens going across on a quarterback sneak.

IJic second Hawkeye marker came on a dazzling 34 yard scamper by Hank Terrell around the N.U. right wing. Nebraska came right back fighting and tallied when Kenfield flipped to Buzz Hollins for a 44 yard gain. Hollins almost reached pay dirt but a yard short and Kenfield squirted thru the middle for the score-. The half ended favoring the Hawks, 14 to 7.

Bert Gissler stole the ball from Larson, who was attempt- a lateral, and Nebraska found itself in possession of the nutlet -on the Iowa 18 early in the third. Hollins, a swell vouno- ball toter, reeled off 13 yards and then went over but the plav was called back and the lluskers were finally forced to take to the air to score. Gaiter passed to Schneider from the 11 Bob catching the leather on the three and stumbling Hill missed the point but the Huskers were back in I May Be WRIT DOBBINS Statistics of Iowa U's S3 to IS victory over the Cornhuskers last Saturday tell a good deal about the Hawkeye triumph. For instance Slip Madigan's team had possession of the ball a good share of the time, reeling off 63 plays to N. 24.

Iowa compiled almost 3OO more yards on the ground than the Scarlet while reeling off 15 first downs to the Huskers' five.

Slingin' Sammy Baugh and a brand new relief elbower, George Cafego, cmtpitchcd Ski track- man in the battle of professional football's fanciest lingers Sunday and the Washington Redskins rode to a 21 to 7 upset over the tousjli Chicago Bears. Colliding in a brawl between the two big, bad powerhouses of the National league--both previously undefeated--the champion Redskins scored once in the first quarter by dusting off the ancient statue of liberty play. They put the game on ice in the third chapter on a pair of pitches by Slingin' Sam and "Chuckin' George" as a partisan sell-out crowd of 35,672 jamming Griffith stadium went somewhat delirious. the ball game.

13-14. Iowa took all the starch, out of the Scarlet on the siic- ceedin-r kickoff when Larson lugged the tomato back 64r yards and Gallagher plunged over a moment later. Nebraska made a couple of goal line stands but a blocked punt gave Iowa its clincher, the Hawks scoring after a penalty had planted the ball on the Husker 1-yard line. Stephens went Lt. Hollis Limprecht, a former member of The Journal sports staff, has arrived safely in North Africa and writes: I can't say that I like North Africt but it could be worse.

I visited Oran and what a stink hole it is. This is the rainy season and so it is pretty damp here most of the time. We are located on the side of a mountain and have a rather nice view. I've seen the scores of the Nebraska games up to the Missouri defeat in the Stars and Stripes. I haven't heard a thing about high school football.

The food here is surprisingly good. Tell all the fellows in town "Hello" for me. The Hawkeye intercepted Kenfield's desperate pass thrown from the end zone and Huphes brought it back to the four from which point Terrell skirted the end for the touchdown.

About the only consolation Luckman got for his 27th birthday present was completing a 58 yard fourth quarter pass to Ray McLean for the Bears' lone tally. This not only saved the Chicago bone crushers from an undignified shutout, but also marked Sid's 24th touchdown toss of the year, to pull him up even with the all- time National league record--a mark set a year ago by Cecil Isbell, tlie Green Bay Packers' righthander. With one more outing still to go this season, the ex-Columbia ace stands better than an outside chance of raising the ante to a new high.

Victory String Ends. It was the second straight defeat the Bears suffered in this ball yard at the hands of the rip- tearing Redskin line and Baugh and company in the backfield. Last December they lost the league playoff championship to Washington here and Sunday they were handed their first setback of the campaign as well as their first regular season league defeat in two years, after 24 victories and one tie. The two tallies in which Baugh had a hand were packed with all the drama that could be drummed into this meeting which has been regarded as a preview of the 1943 title playoff, slated for Dec. 19 in Chicago.

Suffering from a knee injury, he came limping onto the field early in the first period, after Cafego fell on a Bear fumble on the Chicago 36 and the Washing- tons had moved to the 20. Apparently every one of the Bears suspected Slingin' Sammy was in there to do some shngin' and their defense fell back accordingly. But Baugh crossed them beautifully by pulling the old statue of liberty out of the hat. Wilbur Moore, the handy man from Minnesota, picked the ball off Sammy's extended arm, went wide around his own left end and galloped over for the score. Ord high wins 27th straight I Neb.

Ord knocked off Lexington's Minute Men 27 to 0 to finish the season unbeaten and untied. The victory was Ord's 27th in a row, one of the finest records in state high school football. Some of-the Bowl games are already shaping "Washington and Southern California will clash at Pasadena; Georgia Tech has already been named as one of the teams in the Sugar Bowl classic while Louisiana State will be seen at the Orange Bowl. New Mexico got the host bid for the Sun Bowl mix at El Paso. The Chicago Bears were hested by the Washington Redskins, 21 to 7 in a major pro loop upset which is a prelude to the championship finale to be played later on.

New 1 ork knocked off the Cardinals, 24 to 13 and Harry Ilopp scored twice as the Detroit Lions fell before the Phil-Pitt gang, 3o to 34. Green Bay had little trouble with Brooklyn, 31 to i. Northeast high of Lincoln made most of the high school news of the AA'cek by thumping York, 47 to 0 on the Dukes home lot. Delaney returned the opening kickoff 78 yards ami York wilted soon after. Delaney scored four times; while Knight, Wolfe and Yanney each tallied.

Lincoln high finished its schedule a -week ago. A few of the high school results follow: And from Jim Ramsey, our ex- Falls City correspondent and former U. P. manager in Lincoln, comes the following: I thought I'd get in to say Hello to you during my 15-day leave, but the time has flown so rapidly that I didn't get to see but a small percentage of the people I had hoped for. My leave ended Saturday and by Monday I'll be back at Farragut, to await assignment-either to work, to school or to sea.

Navy life is a far cry from my days in the newspaper game at Falls City and Lincoln, but I'm taking everything in stride. The fact that I kept myself in condition by playing tennis occasionally put me in fine fettle for navy life. You might be interested in knowing how I came out in the various competitive events we had there. I won the championship of our company of 135 men Middies rate over Army in grid classic Irish to meet Great Lakes 11 BY CARL LUNDQUIST. NEW YORK.

(UP). The Army and the Navy, stocked with dead- game fighting men in every sultry and frigid clime, turn their football warriors out to battle at West Point next Saturday in the climax to a wartime season that generally exceeded expectations of even the optimistic. Wherever they are--in fox holes or on the high seas, in lonely Pacific outposts or in submarines in the ocean--soldiers and sailors along w.th the generals and the admirals will be awaiting the outcome that session on the football fii Id. Dwight Eisenhower in North Africa, Lt. Gen.

Joseph StiU well in China and Admiral William F. Halsey, commanding the South Pacific fleet, are big league fighting men who once played with the Army or Navy elevens. Stilwell sparked Army to victories over Navy in 1902 and 1903 as halfback and Halsey was fullback on the losing 1903 Navy team. Gen. Douglas MacArthur in Australia was squad manager of the 1902 Army team.

In addition hundreds of other officers in both branches are veterans of the classic. Navy Stronger. Navy is a slight favorite because of a more impressive record, but only a purveyor of piffle could sell the idea there is ever an underdog in. this game. The oddsmakers who tried it last year very nearly suffered bankruptcy.

Navy, stepchild in the betting, won by two touchdowns. The visiting midshipmen will be represented by a "tongue in cheek" cheering section from Army, because the 10-mile restriction on seats applies even to the guest team. Notre Dame, which passed the measure of football greatness prescribed by its old master Knute Rockne--it carne from behind to win--finishes against Great Lakes Naval in Saturday's co-feature game. The Irish after clinching national football honors in beating Iowa Pre-Flight 14 to 13, may let down, but not enough to dim a record of nine victories over top teams from the east, midwest and south.

NEW YORK. The ola professor was studying his ration book as his Monday morning class of football coaches entered the room. He seemed disappointed. Old Professor: Hmm. I wanted to buy myself a nice steak but I seem to be just one point shy.

Can anybody help r.ie out? Lt Don Faurot, Iowa PreFlight: Not me, Professor. If I had a point I would have used it to get that tie I wanted, with Notre Dame. Anyway, Notre Dame has a great team and deservexl to win. I'm sorry we couldn't get the tie after playing- the Irish to a standstill. Frank Leahy has done a magnificent job and my hat is off to him.

Frank Leahy, Notre Dame: The performance of our team, when it came from behind to defeat what I believe to be a great team, convinced me beyond doubt that it deserves to be ranked of championship caliber. When the going got tough, the boys got tougher than I believed them capable. Tm mighty proud to be the coach of such a fine group of American boys. Old Professor: Take Mr. Leahy's temperature, someone, quick.

He seems to be out of his head. I never heard him talk that way before. And his team still has a game to play yet. Claude (Little Simons. Tvilane: Speaking of temperature boy, were we hot against S.

Hottcr'n a firecracker. In other words, just what I wanted for Christmas. VanBuren's poor condition undoubtedly hurt L. S. U.

Bernie Moore, Louisiana State: Yep, we've been invited to play in the Orange Bowl. But we would lave swapped all the bowl bids for a victory over Tulane. We missed VanBuren, and, Tnlane played a great game. Old Professor: Mr. Lookabaugh, do you know what a passing fancy Jim Lookabaugh, Oklahoma A.

No sir, but I know what fancy passing is. Those 81 forward passes, 60 by Arkansas, had me 3izzy but luckily the kiddies weren't as dizzy as I was. We felt it was the most spectacular game between the schools since the series opened in 1912. John (Bud) Tornlin, Arkansas: Jim Lookabaugh has a rough team to be so young. Our spread formation passes clicked for 372 yards net but we couldn't punch it over.

Penalties and officials' decisions cost us two touchdowns. We're looking toward Tulsa. Old Professor: Mr. Young, finish this quotation: "To err is Tom Young, North Carolina: Fatal, when you're playing against Duke, and we made a few. Our boys played well, but Duke had just too much, including reserves.

Boy, was it a hot day! Eddie Cameron, Duke: It was one of the hardest-fought games we've had, and we had to work all the way to win. Milner, Gantt, Luper and Balistaris played well, in fact, the entire squad did fine. Harry Stuhldreher, Wisconsin: Speaking of fight, I have the greatest group of fighters I've ever seen. They've scored no victories in so long but you'd never know it by their play. Minnesota came back remarkably in the last three weeks and showed it against us.

Dr George Hauser, Minnesota: My beys used their heads Saturday, and they fought. There were many times when defeat could have stared us in the face if the boys hadn't remained calm and played smart football. Wisconsin showed a lot of fight and gave us all the battle we wanted. Old Professor: Please quit chat- tering, Mr. Necly.

Jess Neely, Rice: Can't help it, Professor. After Texas beat us 58 to 0 and I was asked for a statement, I wondered what they expected one to say after a game like that. After winning, I could talk all day. It was a game in which you couldn't tell from one down to the next what would happen, but we were tickled to death to win it. Leo (Dutch) Meyer, T.

C. The boys fought as hard as they could. Rice just beat us, that's all. Old Professor: And that's all for the class today. I'm cutting the period short.

There's no point in staying here, and if 1 don't get that point I don't get that steak, if you get the point. Good day, gentlemen.

Things are a little slow on the home sports front altho the lluskers still must face Oklahoma here. The Sooners clinched the Big Six: title when Kansas scored an upset 7 to 6 win over Missouri at Lawrence last Saturday. Iowa State finished in a tie with the Tigers for second place by walloping Kansas State. 4S to 0. The final standings will undoubtedly read Oklahoma, Iowa State and Missouri, tie for second; Nebraska and Kansas, tie for fourth and fifth and Kansas State, sixth.
