UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS
TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 30, 1948
By Daily Kansan Sports Staff
The Oklahoma Sooners booming powerhouse, Big Seven conference champs, placed only three men on the 1948 Daily Kansan Big Seven All-Star team, but walked off with five spots on the all-conference second team.
Kansas and Missouri pushed Oklahoma for top honors. Both schools placed three men on the first team and an identical number of two on the second team.
The Sooner team was led by All-America candidates Jack Mitchell and Paul (Buddy) Burris, with Wade Wallace barely edging Homer Paine for first team honors.
Kansas, which placed third in the Big Seven standings, landed Dick Tomlinson, Dick Monroe, and Forrest Griffith. Tomlinson was an easy choice for a first team berth while Monroe had to squeak past Bob Fuchs of Missouri and Griffith narrowly topped George Thomas of Oklahoma for the backfield spot.
Unanimous choices for top honors went to two Oklahomaans, Mitchell and Burris. All other positions were closely contested with only one or two ballots separating the first and second team choices.
All-Star selections were determined by ballots cast in the Memorial stadium press box by sports writers covering the Kansas home games. The closest contest among the voters, which could have been settled either way, was the one-half edge Colorado's Ed Pudlik received over Oklahoma's James Owens.
Repeating stars of most 1947 All- Conference teams include Mitchell, Griffith, Burris, Sheehan, Entsminger and Fritz.

Ray Evans, in a recent letter to Fred Ellsworth, alumni association secretary, said, "It will be good to be in good old Kansas after spending four and a half grinding months here in the East."
Evans has been keeping his eyes on Kansas and looking forward to the basketball season. "I see where KU has quite a basketball schedule this year—more than usual. It will be nice to see a few of the games again from the sideline."
