PAGE FOUR
Football Leaders Are Enumerated for Past Season
Ten Outstanding Players for Every Position Are Selected by Kansan
At the conclusion of each football season a number of All-American football teams are selected by the various sport writers throughout the country. As would be expected in a situation like this there are rarely any writers who have exactly coinciding teams. There are so many players in the United States who have unanimous support, but assignate any two or four men that are the leaders in each particular position.
A much fairer way of designating the outstanding players of the gridiron teams of the United States is to select a certain number of these men for each position on a football team. These are assigned an equal rank in which they are placed.
The following selection of outstanding gridsters has been compiled by two Kanasan sport writers who have followed the football play of the leading teams of the country throughout the entire season. The play of every section of the United States is recognized in the following selection.
Eastern supremacy in football has passed. Outstanding football players are found in every section of the country. In the development of famous players the south and the middle-west formations armies in the past few years.
Since an attempt to enumerate the relative mites of the following players would be an almost ceaseless task only the names and the teams are given for each gridiron performer. The names of the men, the team on which they played, and the position which they played are as follows:

Starr's Run Is Longest Recorded in Eight Years
Wilbur Starr, halfback on this year's Kansas team, made one of the longest runs on the gridiron that has
been made in recent years. In the Kansas-Washington game of Nov. 1, 1924, after Kansas had held Wash-
ington on the Kansas field, the Kansas field line, Starr received the ball and slipped on for 101 yards and a touchdown.
Other famous runs are: G. S. Mcaa, 110 yards, Lafayette vs. Swarthmore, Oct. 15, 1909; Erchert, 104 yards, Indiana vs. Iowa, Oct. 27, 1912. Starr's run is, however, the longest he has been made in the longest run.

Six Basketball Games to Be Played at Home as Result of Ruling
Only Twelve Conference Game Can Be Counted Toward Championship
Due to a Missouri Valley ruling the basketball fans of Lawrence and vicinity will see the University of Kansas team in action only six times this year at Robinson gymnasium. At a meeting, last June, of the athletic directors of the valley schools that play 12 games in the conference that would count in figuring the valley championship.
Lack of seating facilities in the gymnasium is the reason that only six home games are being played this year. Next year with the added facilities of the auditorium, Dr F. C. Allen expects to have some
strong teams from outside the conference here.
At a meeting of the athletic directors two years ago it was decided that a team could play 18 games. Dr. P. C. Allen scheduled all 18 with Coach Joe Tortoise as a championship game. But since the taking of the Oklahoma Agries into the conference, it has been decided that 18 games a year would be too many and only 12 games in consideration for the championship.
It was decided that a double round robin schedule would be played every three years. This allows the playing of every team in the valley four games in three years. These games shall be home and home.
This year Oklahoma, Oklahoma Argies and Drake are not on the Kansas schedule. But both Oklahoma and Drake are dedicating their new field houses this season and have asked to participate in the game. F. C. Allen agreed to play the games, but according to the valley rule neither game will be considered as championing games, regardless of the score. Kannan will also play two games with K. C. A. C. one with Oklahoma and one with Creighton University.
Before this year's basketball schedule was completed, Dr. F, C. Allen attempted to match home games with Michigan, Illinois, Wisconsin and Northwestern. All offered to play if Kansas would play in the Big Ten conferences, but Doctor Allen would not agree to do this.
The Kansas Aggies, Nebraska and Ames will not be on the Kansas schedule next year as championship games.
