Steve Spurrier Tops MI-SEC Offensive Unit Ga. (AP) Spurrier of Florida Sle ye race football learn announced The AssMiaW 22-man squad includes seven repealers from a year Grambling Has 2 On Ail-American NEW YORK (AP) Formerly, football fanatics glued their uninterrupted gaze on the ball carrier and paid no attention to the defense. All that has changed in the past decade and if the 1965 Associated Press Little All-America team could be assembled for an All-Star fray, two jovial be- hemoths on defense would be as much of an attraction as any fancy stepping halfback. They are Frank Cornish, a 285-pOund tackle from Grambling, and Willie Lanier of Morgan State, a junior linebacker who never has played in a losing game as a collegian. Every game Morgan State has lost in Loyola to Field Tall Hoop Squad NEW ORLEANS (AP) Loyola of New Orleans will field one of the tallest teams in the school's history this year.

But Loyola coach Bill Gardiner still has a multitude of problems. One of six major independents in the South, Loyola's entire crop of experienced guards was depleted by graduation and disciplinary action. Because of this, Gardiner has had to move forwards Roger Radecki (6-foot-3), John Erb (6-4) and Paul Bouman (64) to guard to fill the gap. All are juniors and they, along with 6-1 DearAlthea, "I can't decide whether I like Half and Halfs for their rich taste or mild flavor." Dear Smoker, "Why bother? Just enjoy both." I sophomore Ted Adams, form the thin, but tall guard corps. Up front, the, Pack will be led by 64 senior captain Don Kalinowski, last year's leading scorer aad rebounder.

He will be joined at forward by 6-5 junior Barry Geraghty. Lee Freeman, a 6-8 junior, will probably man the center spot. For depth in the front line, Loyola has sophomores Bill O'Brien (6-9) Dan Bell (6-7), Mike Mazerall (6-7), Jim Jackoniski (6-6) and Mike Sullivan (6-5) along with (6-6) junior Ken Zimki. O'Brien and Bell should see heavy duty as both have been coming along steadily during practice. Jackoniski and Mazerall are fine shooters who need to improve on defense.

Much of this year's success, according to Gardiner, depends on how well the guards perform and how much improvement Loyola will make on defense. Last year's edition of the Pack was the highest scoring (earn in the school's history. Bui it was also one of the worst defensively, allowing more than 80 points per game. first major southern college to break the racial barrier when it recruited two Negro cagers last a 26-game schedule which in- cudes a holiday trip to the Sun Bowl tournament. During the regular season, the Wolves play Providence twice, Memphis State two times along with Tulsa, Miami of Florida, Xavier of Ohio and Dayton.

the past three years came with Lanier on the bench because of injuries. For sheer bulk, Cornish, is the biggest man on the 22-player 1 e-defensive squad picked by The Associated Press in conjunction with football experts throughout the country. His poundage is stretched over a steel-hard frame that towers 6-7. Lanier is 6-1 and weighs 230 pounds. He, is a speedster who has averaged 12 unassisted tackles a game and scored two touchdowns this season, once via a recovered fumble and the other following an interception.

Coach Earl Banks says Lanier is the best football player at Morgan State since the days of Roosevelt Brown, a National League standout for more than a decade. If you think Cornish is big, take a look at Tom Davis, the Tennessee State defensive end on the second team, who weighs 305. Cornish's presence on the defense platoon and Willie Young's on the offensive forward wall makes Grambling the only college to place two men on the first The first team on offense lists a trio of repeaters from the all- star team of a year ago in Tom Mitchell of Bucknell at end; Dan Summers of Arkansas State at guard and Randy Schultz of the State College of Iowa at fullback.

Those who moved up from the second team of a year ago were Allen Smith of Findlay, a toll carrying halfback; Marvin Peterson, Pacific Lutheran's steady center; Tim Chilcutt, defensive genius at Austin Peay State: and Randy Johnson, Texas quarterback.

The entire offensive with the exception of Was chosen unanimously by The Associated Press Southeastern All-America Advisory Board. Spurrier, who punts, passes 90 per cent of the plays for the Sugar Bowl-bound Gators, was picked over two other great quarterbacks, Steve Sloan of Alabama and Rick Norton of Kentucky. Sloan was awarded the sec- ond-team spot, with Norton fail' ing to win an SEC berth for the third straight year despite a remarkable passing career for Kentucky.

Joining Spurrier in the offensive backfield were three seniors who were on the team last Rodger Bird of Kentucky and Mike Dennis of Mississippi and fullback Steve Bowman of Alabama. Spurrier's favorite passing target, Charles Casey of Florida, was named at offensive end along with Tommy Tolleson of Alabama, the player the Tide called on when the going was rough.
