“We had a good practice last
night, all the players were bounc
ing around and relaxed,” Stallings
said when asked about the- first
full practice since the Texas
game.
Stallings and his staff are pre
paring for the upcoming New
Year’s Day clash wtih Alabama
like any other game on their
schedule. The Aggie mentor ad
mitted however that Alabama did
present some problems.
“This isn’t one of the greatest
teams Alabama has had but it is
a good team,” Stallings said. He
observed that the Crimson Tide
will be the quickest team they
have met this season. Stallings
praised Alabama’s kicking game
and pointed out they have a good
passer and receiver.
The passing duo to which Stall
ings referred is Ken Stabler the
Tide’s left-handed passer and
Dennis Homan, Alabama’s All-
America flanker. Stallings, who
was at Alabama before coming to
A&M, knows both players’ abili
ties well. In fact, the Aggie head
man recruited Homan.
The Aggies will practice up to
Dec. 22 and then break for Christ
mas the afternoon of the 22nd.
They will reassemble in Dallas on
the 26th and hold a practice that
day.
Stallings plans no extensive
practices and will keep to a once-
a-day procedure.

Packers Dominate AP Pro
Selections With Six Named
NEW YORK <JP> — Although
the Baltimore Colts remain the
only unbeaten team in the Na
tional Football League with one
game to play, the Green Bay
Packers again dominate the NFL-
All-Star team selected by a com
mittee of sportswriters and sport-
casters for The Associated Press.

Green Bay, the defending
champion, placed six men on the
teams, two on offense and four
on defense. The Dallas Cowboys,
the team the Packers defeated a
year ago for the title, put four
players on the first team and
Baltimore placed three.
John Unitas, the old pro who
has kept the Colts on the un
beaten path, displaced Green
Bay’s Bart Starr as the quarter
back. Two of his three All-Star
receivers did not make the first
club last year. They are Charley
Taylor of Washington at split
end and Willie Richardson of the
Colts at flanker. John Mackey
of Baltimore repeated at tight
end.
The explosive running back
pair of Gayle Sayers of the Chi
cago Bears and Leroy Kelly of
the Cleveland Browns once again
were named.
Forrest Gregg and Jerry
Kramer, veteran Packer interi
or linemen, made it again.
Gregg’s mate at tackle was
Ralph Neely of Dallas. Neely
replaced Philadelphia’s Bob
Brown, who was out with inju
ries in the last part of the season.
Kramer and Gene Hickerson
of Cleveland were the guards.
Hickerson moved into the posi
tion held last year by San Fran
cisco’s John Thomas, another in
jury victim.
Bob DeMarco of St. Louis won
the center job over Mick Tingel-
hoff of Minnesota, first team
last year.
