Fox, Mantle Top League All-Stars
NEW YORK —(UP)—Nelson Fox, who has hit a total of 25 home runs in 11 big league seasons, and Mickey Mantle, who has hit that many in half a campaign, were honored today as the only unanimous picks on the United Press 1957 American League all-star team.
The team, selected by a 24-man committee of three baseball writers from each city in the league, also included catcher Yogi Berra and shortstop Gil McDougal of the Yankees, first-baseman Vie Wertz of the Indians, third-baseman Frank Malzone and outfielder Ted Williams of the Red Sox, outfielder Roy Sivers of the Senators, pitcher Jim Bunning of the Tigers and Fox' White Sox teammate, pitcher Billy Pierce.
The Baltimore Orioles and Kansas City Athletics were the only teams not represented on a squad that averages 30 years of age per man. The eight regulars hit a total of 200 home runs this year and both pitchers hit the 20-victory total on the nose.

Freshmen Face K-State Saturday
The KU freshman football team will play its first game of the season in Lawrence Saturday afternoon, when they meet the Kansas State freshmen.
"Our boys have the desire and hustle to become a good team, but right now we are untried, so it's hard to say what the outcome will be." Rex Grossart, freshman football coach said Wednesday.
KU's backfield will have Don Wrench at quarterback, Roger Hill at wrench half, Bill Michaels at right half, and Doyle Schick at full-back.
"Wrench is small, but a mighty fine quarterback, and should prove to be a good leader." Grossart said.
The starting line will be Mike Cavanaugh, right end, Stan Kirshman, right tackle, Ralph Caster, right guard, Jerry Brown, center, Rudy Maser, left guard, Jim Ragan, left tackle and Joe Sprekelmeyer, left end.
Plenty Of Line Prospects Grossart said the line is evenly balanced and the unit he starts may not play much longer than the second or third units.
"Ragan missed practice Wednesday with a touch of the flu, and may miss the game," Grossart said.
Wrench, Lawrence quarterback, said, "All of the players feel that we have a fine squad and are hoping to prove just that by stopping Kansas State."
Cavanaugh said, "I believe we really have a great team and with our hustle, we should surprise the Wildcat squad."
K-State Has Big Line
Coach Grossart said the Kansas State team is big as well as being a fine team, and could give any team a rough battle. The Kansas line won't match the Kansas State forward wall in size.
A recent change in positions was made by Coach Grossart, who shifted Ed Alberg of Topeka from quarterback to center. "He is doing well considering the big change he had to make," Grossart said.
Kansas To Meet Stiff Defense In Miami
Coach Chuck Mather's football team headed south this morning after winding up preparations Wednesday to meet the Miami Hurricanes in the Orange Bowl Friday night.
"Last year they were second in the nation in rushing defense and they have one-half of that unit back to bolster their team this year," he said. "They have proved their defensive ability this year by holding the tough Baylor team to 18 yards rushing."
Mather said that KU scouting reports have indicated that the Miami line is tremendously big and quick. For this reason, the Jayhawkers are expected to rely on their air attack.
Kansas will be in their best physical condition since before the Colorado game. Tom Russell, Bob Kraus,
Bobby Robinson and Don Fetter are on the doubtful list for Friday night's game, but all four may see some action.
Mather stressed pass defense and offense in Wednesday's workouts which were held in high winds.
The probable Kansas starters are ends, Jim Letcvibs and John Pepercorn; tackles, Frank Gibson and Ed Prelock; guards, Chet Vanatta and Paul Swoboda; center, Bill Burnison; quarterback, Wally Strauch. halfbacks, John Francisco and Larry Carrier and fullback, Homer Flovd.
KU Players Want Victory
Three Kansas football players expressed words of caution but a desire to win shortly before the team departed for Miami today.
Fullback Homer Floyd said, "Miami has a tremendous defense. We are going to have a hard time moving the ball, but will certainly go all out to win."
End John Peppercorn pointed out that Miami will probably be the heaviest team the Jayhawkers have faced this year.
"Sooting reports indicate they will be as tough as any team we've played except Oklahoma," he said.
Tackle Ed Prelock showed a special interest in the Miami game since he will be playing against two of his high school friends.
"One of the boys is a kid I played against in my home town of Cleveland," he said. "The other is a kid I know from New York. My brother and his wife will also be there," he added.
"It's our time for a good game." Prelock said. "The boys aren't proud of their past. We know we can do a good job. We have the potential and we want victory just as bad as the fans."

Bad Weather Forces Kansas State Inside
MANHATTAN — (UP) — Halfback Ben Grosse and guard Gene Meier returned to practice Wednesday as Kansas State worked inside Ahearn Fieldhouse to escape raw, wet weather.
Former reserve end Craig Jones was moved to fullback, where K-State is thin because of injuries.
Missing from the workout was end George Laddish, who injured a knee in practice Tuesday. Still sidelined from injuries from the Colorado game are halfbacks Gene Keady and backback Ray Glaze.
The K-Staters concentrated on defense against Iowa State's single-wing attack.
Missouri outgained eight of its ten 1956 opponents in rushing yards from scrimmage.
