New Frosh Coach Stresses Attitude
By Russ Corbitt Assistant Sports Editor
Mental attitude will be the determining factor in the success of KU's freshman football team this year, Coach Bennie Lee believes.
Lee is in his first season as freshman coach.
"I have never been around a more enthusiastic bunch of kids," Lee said. "They are willing to sacrifice a little to be a real fine ball team."
THE TEAM WILL be a little bigger from tackle to tackle than last year's prospects, but the quarterback and halfback candidates are small this year. Lee said.
"It's really too early to make any definite comments or predictions," Lee said.
Coach Lee has made several position changes on the basis of the first week's practice.
The freshmen's two-game schedule will open Nov. 7 when KU will play Kansas State at 2:30 p.m. in Memorial Stadium.
THE OTHER GAME will be Nov. 15 when KU will play Missouri's freshmen at Columbia.

Chiefs Purchase Old KU Scoreboard
KU will have a connection with the Kansas City Chiefs professional football team in more ways than cheerleaders and Curtis McClinton.
The Chiefs, defending champions in the American Football league, have purchased an old KU scoreboard for $750. KU has not used the old scoreboard for several seasons.
John Antonello, director of Kansas City's Municipal Stadium, said the old scoreboard was bought so one could be installed in time for the Chiefs' home opener Oct. 6 against the Houston Oilers.
Bids for a new scoreboard ranged up to nearly $40,000 and there was doubt that a new one could be installed in time.
THE MOST CONSECUTIVE knockouts in major competition were 43, scored by ex-heavyweight Lamar Clark of West Jordan, Utah, and ex-light heavyweight challenger Billy Fox of Philadelphia.
