Staubach Tops United Press All-American NEW YORK (UPI) — United Press International today presents its 1963 All-America football team with Navy’s Roger Staubach leading the way. Chosen as the finest 11 players to perform on collegiate football fields this season in a nationwide ballot of 305 football writers and broadcasters were: Vern Burke of Oregon State and Jim Kelly of Notre Dame at ends. Scott Appleton of Texas and Carl Eller of Minnesota at tackles. Bob Brown of Nebraiska and Rick Redman of Washington at guards. Dick Butkus of Illinois at center. - Staubach, Gale Sayers of Kansas, Sherman Lewis of Michigan State and Jay Wilkinson of Duke in the backfield. It is a big, fast team. That the voters made no mistakes in their selections is evidenced by the fact that seven. of the 11 players eligibfle were picked high in the draft of the professional football league clubs. It is led by one of the most brilliant quarterbacks in college football history and two linemen whom the pros have labeled as “can’t miss” stars. Staubach Led Voting Staubach, who in directing Navy to one of its most successful seasons won the Heisman Trophy as the most valuable college football player of the year, led the voting with a total of 2,916 points — only 439 points short of a perfect score. Appleton, a key factor in Texas winning the national championship, was the top vote getter among the linemen with 2,556 points with Butkus next with 2,492. Staubach and Butkus are two of the four juniors on the mythical team—the first time since 1955 that that many juniors have made a UPI All-America team. The other juniors are Redman and Sayers. Geographically, die team is dominated by the Midwest with four players — Butkus, Brown, Kelly and Lewis. There are two each from the Far West and Midlands and one each from the East, South and Sbuthwest. Only the Rockies failed to land a berth on the- all-star team and the state of football in that section is reflected by the fact that not a single player from that geographical section of the nation made the second or third teams. South Dominates The South dominated the squad of 33 players named to the first three teams with eight, followed by the Midwest and Southwest with six players each. There are five from the Far West and four each from the Midlands and East. There were no repeaters from the 1962 UPI All-America team. There were only two eligible — halfback Mel Renfro of Oregon and guard Jack Cvercko of Northwestern. Both were handicapped by injuries this season, but Renfro made the third team and Cvercko led the honorable mention among guards. Burke was the only first team player who was on one of the three mythical teams in 1962. He was named v on the third team then. In height, Eller is the giant of the team at 6-foot-5. In weight it is Brown at 269. The line is one of the heaviest ever — averaging 230 pounds. Burke is the lightest at 201. The backfield, however, is one of the lightest with an average of 183, due to the fact that Lewis weights only 154. The closest contest for first team positions came for the two backs to go along with Staubach and Sayers. Both Lewir> and Wilkinson wound up with the same number of points — 1,319. They beat out Paul Martha of Pittsburgh by 110 points. Eleven points were awarded for a first place vote and six for a second. Lead Second Team Martha’s 1,209 points led the second team voting; The second team' backfield is rounded out by Jim Grisham, Oklahoma; VETERANS OF .

Indiana Beats Notre Dame By 108-102 Score By FRED DOWN . t UPI Sports Writer Indiana’s basketball rivals can thank their lucky stars the Van Arsdale twins aren’t triplets. Just the two of ’em are threats to outscore whole teams. Take Wednesday night when the identical 6-foot, 5-inch forwards combined to score 76 points and dead Indiana to a 108-102 victory over Notre Dame. Dick connected for 15 field goals and 12 free throws for 42 points and Tom tossed in 15 field goals and four free throws for 34. < That tremendous two- man performance earned Indiana its second straight victory on a night during which Texas Western upset fifth-ranked Wichita, 75-74, and second-ranked Cincinnati squeezed past Miami of Ohio, 60-56. Jim Barnes scored 32 points to lead Texas to the bit upset of the night at Wichita, Kan. Dave Stallworth scored 37 points for Wichita, which suffered its first loss after two wins. Cincinnati had a close call at home when Miami’s Charlie Coles developed a ‘‘hot hand” and threw in five straight longrange field goals to reduce the Bearcats’ lead from 12 to four points with 1:34 left. The defense - toughened Bearcats refused to panic, however, and held their lead. Ron Bonham had 26 points and 12 rebounds for Cincinnati.

Thompson Murder Case Nears Jury MINNEAPOLIS, Minn. (UPI) —Six men and six womep were expected to begin deciding today whether T. Eugene Thompson’s pretty heiress wife was killed at his request or died in a burglary in the approaching pIITnQY nF nnn rr tion's most celebrated murder trials. Prosecutor William B. Randall and defense attorney Hyam B. Segell were to present closing arguments today, followed by Hennepin County District Court- Judge Rolf Fosseen’s detailed instructions to the jury. Segell was expected to take more time in his closing remarks, in contrast to his brief ’ presentation of witnesses to the jury. More than 100 witnesses took the stand during the first degree murder trial, which is in it® sixth week. Most were called by the prosecution. It contends Thompson, 36. masterminded the slaying of Carol Thompson, 34, last March 6. His motive, the state charged, was to collect the more than $1 million insurance he had bought on his wife’s life, most of it in the past 13 months, and to be free to resume an affair with his former mistress. The defense contends that Mrs. Thompson was beaten and stabbed to death by Dick W. C. Anderson, 35, during a burglary at the Thompson’s $40;000 home in the fashionable Highland Park section of St. Paul. It was expected the jury would have only three alternatives. It could find the, boyishlooking Thompson guilty of first degree murder, it could find him innocent or it could fail to reach a decision. First degree murder conviction carries a life in prison sentence in Minnesota, which abolished the death penalty more than 50 years ago. 26 Miners Killed In Hungary Blast BUDAPEST, Hungary (UPI) — An explosion at the Tatabanya coal mine 30 miles west of, here killed 26 miners and injured for more Wednesday night, Radio Budapest reported today.

Tigers And Phillies Make Player Trade LOS ANGELES (UPD — Detroit and Philadelphia completed the first inter-league deal of the winter baseball meetings today when the Tigers sent pitcher Jim Bunning and catcher Gus Triandos to the Phillies for outfielder Don Demeter and pitcher Jack Hamilton. Demter and Bunning were the key players in the four-man deal, which was the fourth trade consummated during the current baseball meetings.

Wake Forest Fires Billy Hildebrand , WINSTQN. - SALEM, N.C. <»ttpi) he- Ousted head football Coach Billy Hildebrand of Wake Forest College is looking for another coaching job, but he admits he is going to have a tough s time finding one. “Colleges are not anxious to hire former head coaches as an assistant Hildebrand said, “and it's been my experience — I hope I’m wrong here —that a college finds it difficult to hire a man who has been fired .as a head coach,” Hildebrand, along with Athletic Director William H. Gibson, was fired Wednesday by the college which announced it had begun an immediate search for someone who might put muscle back in the Deacon’s sports program. The school offered both men positions supervising the overall development of the school. Gibson indicated he was undecided about whether to take the offer, but Hildebrand flatly rejected it. “I want to stay in coaching,’’ said Hildebrand. "It’s been my life since the spring of 1947."
