Hicks reinstated on KU grid squad
Sophomore middle-guard Emery Hicks was reinstated to the KU football team Monday. Hicks was dismissed from the squad last Wednesday for disciplinary reasons.
At Monday's practice he was running at number two guard behind sophomore Willie McDaniel. The KU coaching staff spent Monday trying to get the squad to forget about Saturday's upset win over Nebraska and to concentrate on this week's game against Oklahoma State.
"Just because we won a game is no reason to quit working," said Coach Pepper Rodgers. "We made several mistakes and we must work on correcting them."
Rodgers still uphappy
Rodgers said that he was still unhappy about opposing teams being able to complete long passes. He also said there were too many missed blocks and missed assignments.

HELSINKI — (UPI) — Finnish post office clerks began a planned four-day strike today, halting foreign mail service and transfers of money by mail. The clerks are demanding that some 700 recalled temporary employees be given permanent job status.
The first award of $100 will be made this January from the fund established in the KU Endowment Association. Nominations for the award will be made by members of the linguistics committee.
The coaching staff selected tailback Junior Riggins as KU's outstanding back in the Nebraska game. Riggins, a junior from Centralia, carried the ball 19 times for 53 yards. Four of his carries picked up first downs. Rodgers said Riggins' blocking was his best of the season, and his coverage on punts was also good.
The Jawawks did very little contact work Monday but they went through extensive running and conditioning drills.
"We like to work hard on Mondays," Rodgers said. "Since we didn't have too much contact today, we ran more."
There were no serious KU injuries resulting from the Nebraska game. Starting guard Ken Wertzberger missed Monday's practice with a bruised hip, but
"We didn't block him this year, and we didn't block him last year. I guess we've just got one more chance left. He's a good defensive end." Devynne said.
Rodgers said he would be ready for next Saturday's contest at Stillwater.
Nebraska coach Bob Devaney praised Zook.
