In the United Press Interna tional’s and the Dallas Morning- News’ polls Sinionini was named top SWC defender while center Ricky Seeker, guard Bruce Welch and running back Skip Walker re peated with appearances on the second team. Split end Carl Roaches and cor- nerback Pat Thomas made the News’ all-SWC second team while quarterback David Walker made his post-season honor debut by be ing named the Freshman Player of the Year by the UPI. Skip Walker expressed surprise in making the teams. “I thought Big A1 (Bowers) would make it before me,” he said. “They must have picked the teams right after we played SMU be cause I had a good game against them. I didn’t think I had enough total carries for the season to be considered for the teams.” Cornerback Tim Gray, picked to the AP all-SWC second team last week, was also surprised in mak ing the team. “I thought for sure Thomas would make it before me,” he said. “I think he had a better year.” Skip Walker ran for 618 yards on 98 carries for a 6.3 average. He also finished third in the con ference in tandem offense, add ing 233 yards on 10 pass recep tions. Thomas led the Aggies in interceptions with three including a memorable steal with a 50-yard touchdown runback against Wich ita State in the season opener. 17- year-old David Walker took over the reins at quarterback in the sixth game of the season and was impressive with the amount of poise he showed as a freshman. Roaches caught 21 passes for 401 yards to place himself eighth in the SWC standings but his average of 19.1 yards per catch was best among the league lead ers and his single game total of 156 yards against LSU was tops in the conference. Seeker was considered all season to be the best conference center behind Tex as all-American Bill Wyman while Welch steadily improved into one of the league’s top guards. Of the eight Aggies receiving post-season honors, Gary and Seeker are juniors, Simonini, Welch, Skip Walker, Thomas and Roaches are sophomores, and Da vid Walker is the lone freshman. Texas’ Roosevelt Leaks unsur prisingly paced the all-conference selections being a unanimous cho ice at runningback and taking the Offensive Player of the Year awards in all three polls. In addition to Leaks, Texas’ Wyman, tackle Bob Simmons, de fensive tackle Doug English, and safety Tom Arnold were selected to all three teams. Other SWC players picked to all three first squads include Baylor’s split re ceiver Charles Dancer; Texas Tech’s quarterback Joe Barnes, tackle Tom Ferguson, tight end Andre Tillman, defensive tackle Ecomet Burley, guard Dennis Allen and defensive backs Ken neth Wallace and Danny Willis; Arkansas’ halfback Dickey Mor ton and linebacker Danny Rhodes, and Rice’s defensive back Bruce Henley. Tech rookie running back Lar ry Isaac was named Freshman of the Year by the AP and News polls while Burley grabbed the News’ Sophomore of the Year honors. The AP gave Tech’s Jim Carlen Rice Under Investigation For Recruiting Violations DALLAS (A*)—An investigation into Rice University’s 1971 foot ball program will be on the agen da when Southwest Conference faculty representatives, athletic directors and coaches gather here Thursday for a three-day meet ing. An announcement on Rice’s fate in the matter is expected Saturday, Dec. 8. Cliff Speegle, the executive sec retary of the SWC, said the Rice investigation wasn’t expected to be completed until early this week. “It went into the hopper late so we don’t expect a report from Holloway Associates until early in the week,” Speegle said. Hol loway Associates Inc. is a private investigation firm in Dallas hir ed by the conference. Rice faces possible probation ary action should facts be proved in Giles Tippette’s book, “Satur day’s Children.” The book told of payoffs to Rice football players and trans portation violations.

Leaks is considered a strong candidate for the Heisman Tro phy, which will be announced today. Wichita State Shockers Boot Head Coach Bob Seaman, Staff On the basis of a recommenda tion from Wichita State Univer sity Athletic Director Ted C. Bredehoft, the Shocker Intercol legiate Athletic Association Board of Directors has voted unanimous ly not to renew the contract of Head Shocker football coach Bob Seaman and his staff. In announ cing the decision, Bredehoft stat ed that, “Though we feel Bob Sea man’s contribution to Shocker football has been a significant one, we have decided not to re new his contract for the coming season. We will commence immed iately to search for a replace ment,” Seaman and his staff are under contract until December 31 of this year. “We realize, of course, that a change at this crucial time of the year, when recruiting is heavy, dictates the choice of a successor as soon as possible” Bredehoft said. “While we are well aware of that fact, we will take as much time as is necessary to insure the right coice.” Seaman, in his fifth year at Wichita State,, has a 13-26-0 rec ord as a head coach. He joined the Shocker staff as an assist ant in February of 1969 and took the reigns following the October, 1970 air crash that claimed the life of then-head coach, Ben Wil son. After finishing the ’70 sea son with an 0-9 record, the ’71 Shockers rebounded to 3-8. Sea man’s second full year at the helm resulted in the first winning sea son for the Shockers in nine years, a 6-5 slate in ’72. His squad slip ped to 4-7 in ’73, however. Seaman, a former high school “Coach of the Year” in Ohio, was granted a three year contract in 1970, following the completion of the “Second Season” that year.
