Scanning the Big 8
Coach Pepper Rodgers and his staff picked Mickey Doyle for the second week in a row as KU's lineman of the week. The junior linebacker from Kansas City made 18 tackles against Indiana, 14 of which were unassisted.
Quarterback Bob Douglass was picked as the Jayhawks' back of the week. The junior quarterback from El Dorado scored both Kansas touchdowns on runs of two and 19 yards, completed six of 22 passes for 123 yards and netted 33 yards on 20 carries.
Douglass' offensive plays broke the school record held previously the Ray Evans. Evans led 40 offensive plays in a 1942 game with Texas Christian at Fort Worth.

Well, this might be an appropriate time for me and my fellow cohort to pat ourselves on the back for last week's series of Big Eight predictions. The final analysis showed that we successfully picked five right out of seven.

"You are never as lively on a Monday after a loss as on a Monday after a victory," KU's Pepper Rodgers observes. "If you're lively on Monday after a loss, then victory doesn't mean much."

"I'm not the worrying type," says Deane Gibson, wife of K-State's new head man. "Not any more anyway. We all want to win. The job depends on it. Being married to him, you have to have an optimistic outlook."
There was some fast shuffling in the Kansas training camp Monday as Jayhawk coach Pepper Rodgers said he was determined to break a two-game losing streak.
KU determined; Reeves moves up
Rodgers, whose team faces Ohio Saturday, moved fullback Mike Reeves and defensive backs Bill Hunt and Bill Lynch into the starting lineup. Reeves gained 23 yards on three carries in Kansas' 18-15 loss to Indiana Saturday.
But the coach said, "I don't think we'll be at best this weekend. We still have a lot of mistakes to correct and it will take more than three days to correct them."

A professional explosives handler before going to the University of Oklahoma, the Sooners' Dick Paaso, a starting defensive tackle, makes this comparison between his former and recent activity—dynamiting me and football—"Football scares me a heck of a lot more than handling dynamite ever did."

Three Jayhawk gridders were reported ailing Monday as a result of injuries received in Saturday's 18-15 loss to Indiana. Starting fullback Spencer Kissell is suffering from a bruised thigh, defensive back Bob Druten suffered a mild ankle sprain, and linebacker Mickey Doyle is recovering from a hip bruise.
Defensive tackle Bruce Peterson worked out briefly Monday, but is still being bothered by a bad calf.

Ruggers open home grind Sunday against KC Blues
KU's rugby team opens its home schedule Sunday, with a twin bill against the Kansas City Blues. The "A" game will start at 1:30 p.m. followed by the "B" game at 2:45.
The Jayhawk squad split two games last week against the Kansas City Rugby Club. The "B" team won, 15-3, while the "A" team lost, 11-8.
The KU "A" squad was led by Pat Rapp, who scored two goals and a two point conversion for eight points. Jay Clancy also scored a goal to account for the team's other three points.
"The team played fairly well," team captain Ken Leonard said, "but we were up against some pretty rough competition. We should do better Sunday."
Leonard said that anyone interested in playing rugby should contact him at VI3-0231.
"We are interested in getting some freshmen out, but anyone is welcome," Leonard said. "Rugby is a lot of fun, and it is really not that demanding."
Home games are played on the field just west of Oliver Hall. Last year the team compiled an 8-3 record.
