Football Game to Be Played Tomorrow Night at Haskell Field Between Varsity and All-Stars
As a test of off-season interest in what hitherto has been considered a fall sport, the Varsity will meet an "All-Star" aggregation at 7:30 Saturday night in Haskell stadium in a football game which promises real excitement.
The novel game will mark the end of spring practice for the varsity and is being sponsored by the Kansas Relays Club, with promotion plans being carried on by the "K" Club, composed of all men who have lettered in any athletic sport at Kansas University.
The line-up of the "All-Stars" includes several former Kansas players as well as other men with high school 'experience.
Last Year's Lettermen to Play
At ends the "All-Stars" will have Riegle, Stucker, and Dick, all lettermen on last year's Jayhawker team. Dick was also captain of the 1943 squad.
At the tackle posts will be Grimes, Holloway, Penny, and Carl Hird. The latter played here two years ago and Penny was a member of last year's team before hurting his knee in the Nebraska game.
Holding down the guard positions will be Dreher, letterman last year; Dick Sklar, former Kansas all-Big Six star for two straight years and a participant in one of the East-West games. Another guard is Ralph Hayes, a chief petty officer in the V-12 unit.
Professional in Line-Up
At the center spot will be Don Pierce, all Big Six pivot man at KU and ex-property of the Brooklyn Dodgers professional football team. Assisting Pierce will be Bob Smith, who has had four years of experience with a Michigan high school.
The backs will almost all be familiar to Kansas fans as they have played several times in Memorial Stadium, Miller, Bergin, and Mowery are three "seat" backs who played last year. Clarence Douglas, another all Big Six man and participant in the East-West game, will see action at fullback as Will Marvin Vanderweel, present coach at Haskell, and former Kansas athlete, Dwight Sutherland has played on Princeton University's varsity and is being counted on by the "All-Stars" to provide plenty of trouble for their opponents.
Over in the camp of the Varsity coaches Shenk, Schaake, and Nesmith have been preparing their
charges for the big game, but will be in dire need for experienced reserves especially in the line.
Wayne Hird, letterman of last year and receiver of honorable mention on the Associated Press All-American team, will lead the Jayhawk line into the game; however, he will receive strong support from Keller, Shondell, Hill, Ryan, and Bouse—all either lettermen or members of last year's squad. Several other good prospects will round out the limited material for the Varsity.
Available for backfield duty will be Faulkner, Moffett, and Weatherby, 1439 letters men, plus several other promising men, including Schimenz, Welch, Williams, Cantrell, Benedict, and others.
Varsity Out to Win
Coach Henry Shenk said this morning that although the "All-Stars" will be bigger and more experienced, the Varsity will be out to win. While over in the rebel camp, leaders Gordon Stucker and George Dick, made the comment that their team plans on showing the Varsity an "interesting evening," but would divulge no more information.
Even more color will be added to the fray when the officials take the field. Referee will be Lieutenant Zeller, who is a graduate of Indiana University and played eight years of professional football with the Chicago Bears. Headlinesman will be Chalmer Woodard, who coached the Lawrence Memorial high school to a league championship last fall. The position of field judge will be held down by Ensign Ware, who is stationed on the Hill in the V 12 mit, as is Lt. Zeller. Umpire will be Lieutenant Smith of the V-5 unit. Lieutenant Smith is a former University of Mississippi star and was assistant coach there for a while.
