Jayhawks Play Buffs at Boulder; K-State Meets Little Hawks Here Crimson Eyes Frosh Eleven Victory No. 2 Makes Debut
By KEN BRONSON
Kansan Sports Writer
Kansas' youthful but hustling football squad meets Colorado at 3 p.m. (CST) Saturday in Boulder, where no other Hawkeye eleven has been able to accomplish since the Buffs joined the Big Seven in 1948.
Jayhawker hopes are high to even up this year's record at 2-2 and at the same time break the KU winning drouth at Boulder.
The 36-man traveling squad entrained last night for Denver and will work out this afternoon. The team will spend tonight in Denver. The team will return to Lawrence at 6:19 a.m. Sunday.
No matter which way the game goes, sophomores are expected to play leading roles. Colorado will start three sophs and a junior in its backfield while the Jayhawks will go along with their usual combination of John McFarland, Don Hess, Ralph Maddy, and Frank Sabatini.
The game may develop into an all-out aerial game. Colorado is noted for its porous pass defense, having allowed 545 yards in its first three games. The Buffers haven't been too aerial minded yet this year but the sidelining of their best runner, Carrol Hardy, may force them to go to the air. Hardy pulled a rib muscle in the Washington opener and re-injured it in the Missouri game last week.
With Hardy sitting it out, the offensive burden again will fall on Homer Jenkins in the all-important tailback slot. Jenkins, fullback Emerson Wilson, and quarterback Don Piper, all sophomores, will join junior Frank Bernardi in the starting backfield.
The Jayhawkers also can operate a destructive ground game if their aerial game goes awry. Hard-running halfbacks Hess and Moody hit the jugged KU line, and Sabatini supplies power from the fullback slot.
Up front the Jayhawkers have a definite advantage. Anchored by Co-captain Morris Kay and Don Bracelin at ends, KU has an experienced, aggressive forward wall. Joe Lundy and Bud Bixler again will be played in St. Vincent and co-captain Bob Hantla again and guarded, and Merle Hodges, surprising Lawrence sophomore, will hold down the pivot.
Coach J. V. Sikes ran the Jayhawkers through a short, light scrimmage yesterday afternoon before departing for Boulder. Pass defense came in for a major portion of the workout.

Royals Beat Blues Take Little Series
The Montreal Royals, International league champions, last night scored one or more runs in each of five innings to defeat the American association Kansas City Blues, 7-2, to win the Little World Series four games to one.
The Royals pounded out 13 base hits off four Kansas City hurriers, and Montreal starter Hamp Coleman pitched air tight baseball until he allowed the only Blue tallies after two men were out.
Johnny Kucab started on the hill for KC, and was followed in the sixth by Harry Schaeffer, who in turn was relieved by Bob Weisler and Mel Wright. Attendance was 2,844.
Sox Manager 'No' To Baltimore Bid
Chicago —(UP)— Frank G. Lane, "man in motion" for the Chicago White Sox, announced his first trade of the off-season today, practically in the same breath with which he announced rejection of a chance to go to Baltimore as general manager of the Orioles.
The White Sox obtained a right-handed pitcher, Don Johnson, formerly with New York, St. Louis and Washington, from Toronto of the International league in exchange for the contract outright of third baseman Hector Rodriguez.
Announcement of the deal came only hours after Lane revealed that he had talked with Clyde Morris, attorney for the Orioles, but had decided "that I should not enter into any discussion with the Baltimore club in regards to the club's general managership."

A good preview of next year's varsity hopefuls. That's what one might call tonight's football game here between the KU freshman team and the Kansas State yearlings. Kickoff time is 8 p.m. at Haskell stadium.
Jayhawk frosh coach Wayne Replogle, although yesterday still expressing some doubt as to who would start the game at certain positions, said he had played 200 pounds per man and a backfield with a 184-pound average.
Wildcat mentor Clyde Van Sickle has nominated a line averaging 195.5 yards a backfield Lash. Last season, Wildcat mentor Clyde Van Sickle battled the Jayhawks to a 0-9 standoff.
Starters at the end spots for Kansas are slated to be Bost Press, 185-pound Lawrence product, and Bill Bell, Hickman Mills, Mo., 190-pounder. Probable tackles are two 225-pound giants, Rog Brinkhoff of Pittsburgh, Pa., and Jack Poe of Lawrence.
Charlie Burton, 187-pound Kansas Citian, and Bill Armstrong, Amarillo, Texas, 185-pounder, probably will open at the two guard slots, and Frank Black, 205-pound Lawrence resident, will start at center.
Tom Slaymaker, all league selection last year at Kansas City, Mo. Central High, has been picked to quarterback. He weighs in at 184.
Halfbacks most likely will be a pair of out-staters, 190-pound Ted Rhobek, South Sioux City, Iowa and 170-pound Tom Kwipchaw of Rochester, N.Y. A Colby native, Otho Sweazy, 190 pounds will be at full.
The 36-man Wildcat squad will use the same formation head coach Bill Meek uses for the varsity—the 15th-ranked Jake Kendall to copy the Jawhawk varsity plays used by J. V. Sikes. He said 52 men would suit up.

Manhattan-Kansas State Coach Bill Meek gave his Wildcats a last look at Iowa State plays in practice yesterday before the squad enplaned for Ames today.
The K-Staters clash with Iowa State in a conference game at Ames tomorrow.
Big7 Briefs
Meek yesterday named a 36-man traveling squad, including Jack Chilton, rated the Cat's best passing quarterback before his early fall injury in practice.
"We'll just have to score more than they," he said.
Coach Abe Stuber ended practice yesterday, but he said he didn't think the Cyclones would be able to hold down the Wildcats scoring.
Ames—The Iowa State Cyclones rested today in preparation for tomorrow's game here with Kansas State.
Friday, Oct. 9, 1953
The Huskers, erratic in three starts, will be after their first win of the year, and will be the first under coach Bill Glassford's new substitution. He plans to start his eleven best players and leave them in until they show signs of weakness.
Lincoln—The University of Nebraska football team was enroute to Pittsburgh today and tomorrow's tussle with Pitt's Panthers.
Columbia—The Missouri university Tigers tackle SMU at Dallas tonight in a non-conference battle.
The Tigers will be trying for their first win over Southern Methodist since 1948, and will be bucking a new SMU formation.
In addition, the Tigers faced the loss of star backs Ed Merrifield and Tony Scardino, who were injured in the Colorado game last week end.
Boulder—Colorado university grid coach Dal Ward, resents critics who pan the team for "lacking desire," and says he wants them to key up his Golden Buffaloes.
"The outstanding feature of this football team has been its spirit," said the irritated Colorado coach last night. "How can anyone say they lack desire after the way they fought back in the second half of the Missouri game last Saturday?"
Just the same, Ward was using the barbed criticism to help key up the Buffs for their Big Seven conference battle with powerful Kansas this Saturday here.
Missouri's Terry Roberts earned the plaudits of the Colorado team as the best linebacker they've faced this year.
Substitute Fighter Predicts Own Victory
New York —(UP)— Terry Moore the Baltimore belly-bopper, made this prediction about tonight's nationally-televised and broadcast fight with lanky Willie Troy: "I'll bust him right in two."
Moore is just a substitute for the middleweight fight with Washington Willie at St. Nicholas arena, but he declared confidently: "I been trainin' with heavyweights in Europe, and I can really sock 'em in the old la bonza now."
Terry, a stocky bobber-weaver, accepted tonight's 10-rounder on Tuesday when Randy Sandy of New York withdrew because of an infected left eye.
