Page 5-A The Gaffney Ledger Monday, November 24, 1969 OHIO STATE DOMINATES 1969 CENTRAL PRESS CAPTAINS' ALL-AMERICAN TEAM Phipps, Owens Also On 39th Honor Squad TTT3T-r'VTrrl W- X. 1 1 By WALTER L. JOHNS Central Press Sports Editor FOUR members of the All-Star cast of the Ohio State Buckeyes, the nation's No. 1 college team, headline the offensive and defensive squads named on the 39th annual Central Press Captains' Ail-American team an honor group picked with the help of the captains of the major college elevens. And, for the first time, two quarterbacks, Mike Phipps of Purdue and Rex Kern of Ohio State, were named to the No.

1 offensive unit and for good reason. Kern, the sleight-of-hand artist who guides the powerful Buckeyes, also is one fine runner, one of the best, and he's placed in the backfield along with Phipps, the outstanding Purdue passer who is pretty much the complete offense of the Boilermakers.

The other Ohio State players on the first squads are tremendous defensive performers, Jim Stillwagon, the middle guard, and Jim Tatum, the defensive back labeled recently by the director of personnel of the Dallas Cowboys as "the best football player in the country." All sections of the country are represented on the 1969 Central Press honor team with the only repeater being Steve Kiner, the Tennessee linebacker. Owens and Otis were second-team members on the offensive team last year. Defensive back Tom Curtis of Michigan and the outstanding Penn State tackle, Mike Reid, were second team members on defense last year.

Their choices help in trying to put together these and, as usual, so many fine players must be left off the lists. Particularly, the quarterbacks and pass catchers for this was a year of offense. Some players, too, like Ken Weidemann, California's outstanding defensive back, didn't make it because of injuries.
