Iowa quarterback All-American
Randy Duncan was selected by the
Green Bay Packers as the number
one choice in the annual National
Football League in Philadelphia
yesterday.
Duncan, the leading passer in
the nation and field general of the
Hawkeyes' Rose Bowl bound West-
ern Conference champions, was
one of ten players chosen from the
Big Ten.
Among these players was Gary
Prahst, Michigan's only gridder to
be picked at this time (only the
first four rounds were completed).
The big Wolverine end was the
fourth draft choice of the Green
Bay squad, but he was traded im-
mediately to the Cleveland Browns
as payment for an earlier deal.
Aside from Duncan, three other
Big Ten players were honored by
being chosen on the first round.
