Coach Sikes Will Greet 109 For Spring Drills Tomorrow
When spring football training begins tomorrow, Jules V. Sikes, Kansas football coach, and A. H. "Pop" Werner, new line coach, will be looking over the 109-man squad for men to replace Dick Bertuzzi, Hugh Johnson, Dick Monroe, Frank Pattee, Ken Sperry, Bryan Sperry and Dave Schmidt, who will be graduated.
Twenty-four of the new men are expected to furnish the holdovers from last season the most competition for first team positions. Much of the new strength will be at guard which includes lettermen Dick Tomlinson, Dolph Simons, John Idoux and Jack Fink.
Holdovers and new men include Ends; Darell Norris, Dave Fischer Delvin Norris, Chuck O'Neal, Joe Mendenhall, Lynn Smith, Bill Schaake, Aubrey Linville, Dick Rossman, Ed Sandefur, Hal Vopat and Charles Pittman.
Size will not be lacking in the prospects for the end position left open by the loss of the two little ends, Bryan Sperry and Dave Schmidt, but the spirit, hustle and experience of the two men will be hard to match. Another large order for Coach Werner will be a replacement for Dick Monroe.

THE COLLEGE JEWELER 809 Massachusetts
Bradenton, Fla., March 22—(U.P.) The Boston Braves, who made history last October by winning the National league pennant, today were making a bee-line for the "booby prize" of the Grapefruit circuit following their eighth setback in 10 games.
Braves Take Eighth Loss
Nothing seemed to go right for the Braves Monday as they were buried beneath an 18 to 5 count at the hands of the Detroit Tigers. The Bengals hammered four rookie hurlers for 18 hits, George Kell and Johnny Lipon each enjoying a field day with three hits.
Detroit scored six runs in the first inning, routing rookie Normie Roy and took added advantage of 10 walks and four Boston errors while Paul (Dizzy) Trout and Jim Lawrence of the Tigers limited the Braves to seven hits.
St. Petersburg, Fla.—(U.P.)-T h e ailing right arm of third b e masieur George (Whitey) Kurowski was the chief concern of manager Eddie Dyer of the St. Louis Cardinals today.
Kurowski, who has appeared in only two of the Redbirds' eight exhibition games, underwent an operation for the removal of bone chips last summer but still reports a severe pain in his right shoulder.
Clearwater, Fla., March 22—(U.P)
The Philadelphia Phillies were scheduled to test their moundsmen against the heavy-hitting Boston Red Sox today.
Rookie Stan Hollmig of the Phils supplied a timely single with the bases loaded Monday to earn his club a 6 to 4 verdict over the Kansas City Blues of the American association.
St. Petersburg, Fla., March 22—(U.P.)—Bob Porterfield and Allie Reynolds, two hurlers whom manager Casey Stengel is* counting on heavily, will share mound duty for the Yankees today in an exhibition game against the Detroit Tigers.
Orlando, Fla., March 22 (U.P.)—Joe Kuel's Washington Senators, who had a rougher time than expected against Chattanooga Monday, took on sterner competition today in the Minneapolis Millers.
Chattanooga pushed over a run in the eighth inning Monday to tie the Senators at 1 to 1, the game being called at the end of nine innings by agreement.
Rupp Worries About Defense
New York, March 22 —(U.P.) Adolph Rupp, an undernourished Sidney Greenstreet with the jitters, worried about defense with the highest powered offense in basketball today as he sent his bob-tailed Wildcats of Kentucky against Illinois for the eastern N.C.A.A. basketball championship.
So it was that, nervously fingering a rubber band which wasn't stretched any more deep his nerves, he danced with defiance in the tip of a club making a comeback.
"Sure, I've got confidence in our offense," exclaimed the baron of basketball in his synthetic draw. "I'm disappointed in our defense."
He had plenty of reason for both contentions after sweating his way to an easier than it sounded 85 to 72 triumph over Villanova at Madison Square Garden Monday night. Those 85 points for his powerhouse established a new high for points in one game in N.C.A.A. competition. But Villanova's 72 totaled up to 157 points—another record and one which set Rupp to weeping.
Kentucky, favored in the recent Invitation tournament, was bowled over in the very first game it played by Loyola of Chicago. And the windy city warriors did it convincingly, 67 to 56.
The Rotund Rupp has the horrors because he honestly doesn't know whether his club has come back "up." He'll tell you, and ask you at the same time, what happened to Kentucky that black night in the Invitation.
"It's a good thing Citation can't read, because once he does he is a goner," Rupp roared, indicating the presence of some swelling noggins. "But nobody ever tried to write a master's thesis on what makes a team go flat some nights."
Not only that, but Rupp thinks that Illinois, which surged from behind to eliminate Yale, will be toucher than Villanova.
Yet after beating Villanova you would have thought his lads had lost again. Adolph was fit to be tied.
"We have no defense," he wailed. "I don't know what's wrong. Before coming here we had a 41 point defensive average. So now we give up
He put the blast on Wah Wah Jones and Walt Hirsch, two of his aces. And he insisted that his team would have trouble with Don Sunderlage and Dick Foley, as well as Dwight Eddleman, tonight.
Lexington, Va. — (U.P.)— A sign on the ceiling above the wrestling mats in Doremus gymnasium at Washington and Lee university reads: "When you can read this, you're in trouble."
Because golf was keeping men from practicing their required archery, the Scottish Parliament in 1457 passed a law prohibiting the sport.
