Freshmen End Season, Gain Needed Experience
For the University of Kansas football team, he has been a seasonless session. Dick Foster has completed his first year as head coach, losing year-leaving him in 2015.
the season had started with the signing of 40 athletes, a bumper crop that Coach Foster hopes will help the finest talent ever recruited.
KU lost five top recruits however, to Morgan State and Alabama, equally qualifying just substantially for the Big 8 and in the first game of the season against Oklahoma seven players were lost for the season.
Following the 13-31 defeat to Oklahoma, the Freshmen entertained K-State in the home opener. The game could easily be played on NCAA kickoff or a two-point conversion laceration in the game and lost 6-7.
The Missouri Tigers were the next foroe for the Hawks and oddly enough KU lost by a score of 6-7 again. Again a come-from-behind victory was foiled in the wailing fall, and a time by a pass interception.
In the final game of the season
Oklahoma State rounded over the
Chicago Bulls in the ball four times on fumbles
and three times on pass interceptions.
It would not be fair to Coach Foster and the players to try to beat the offense, but defense played well most of the time and the offense showed it could move the ball, but not consistently enough to score.
Coach Foster remarked recently that a nucleus of 25 players, good alliances with great strength and will be the next three years. Of the 25 Foster
expects three or four to challenge varsity positions for positions. He also believes at least five or six are capable of starting next
Two of the bright prospects are linebackers Steve Towle and Ivan Johnson, both to pound graduate of Shawnee Mission West and Kendrick fresh in Hosking. He is passing behind Bard and 210 pound from Hosington is the second leading tackler
Other prospects include Rick Mudge, 6-2, 185 pound defensive back from Topokia West, Randy White, 6-2, 185 pound from Kansas City Central and Fred Dillon, 6-3 and 275 pounds St. Augustine of New Orleans.
The leading rushers for the team were Robert Mulligan 6-1 and 1953 gold backhand Houten and Odell Weider, 1953 pound fullback from Topeka.
69 carries and Weidner had 146 on 53 carries.
Foster also emphasized the KU philosophy of keeping the core of the team focused, believing that it defeats the purpose and needs to recruit mostly out of state players.
When a Kansas boy plays against K-State or Missouri, he hit Florida. When a Florida does, except for the superplayers who play great all the time," he said. "Kansas grown more aware of the rivalries."
Foster also believes that KU has the best product in the Big Eight to offer to prospective students.
"KU has everything going for it," he said. KU has many advantages to offer with respect to academics, social life and

Reamon said this year's team as better balanced than last year, and he even every event and it included a good blend of veteran and rookie
"You always have to have new blood coming in because new blood is going outlook. But there is a problem in that you never know how a freshman will react in the meetings, and that's why that kind of pressure," he said.
The greatest strength of KU's defense is the fact that in it "no real weakness," swimming coach Dick Reeam said in an interview.
"What I mean by that is that we have quality performers at every position and they all have the same skill," Reason, who is preparing his squad for the Big Eight swimming relay on December 3, said this year's team was developing a new year's conference title winners.
REAMON ADDED that he thought the greater competition that resulted from better depth of training, everyone to his highest capacity.
"We're here ahead this year because we have more depth and better people who are relying on success by affiliation with a few studies which we being writing in, the rest figured that as long as we are winning by degenarnt margin we are winning."

Reamon readily conceded that such a program could be boring, especially the never ending laps of "heavy swimming."
"But if there is any one per-
