UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS
SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 20, 1942
Scrimmage Held By Marquette Squad Saturday
Marquette university gridmen Friday completed their second full week of early fall football practice, and yesterday morning entered the more important phase of their training grind as they began to bear down for the opening games with Kansas here at Lawrence, September 26, and with Wisconsin at Madison the following week.
One of the most superstitious coaches in the business, Stidham has worn down his knuckles rapping on wood. For a time the habit worked but just when Trainer Eddie Rozmarynoski was congratulating himself on the squad's absence of injuries, the roof caved in on him, Centers Mel Maceau and Jimny Sullivan, Guard Steve Enich, Tackle Chuck Simon, Ends John Harrington and Jack Hildebrandt, Halfback Bill Zimmer and Fullback Johnny Rudan all showed up with injuries and, as a result, Stidham is on the anxious seat as he looks ahead to the Jayhawker and Badger tilts.
Coach Tom E. Stidham arranged a regulation game scrimmage for his huskies, Saturday morning, and then dismissed them for the afternoon so that he and his aides could personally scout Wisconsin in its season's opener with Camp Grant at Madison.
With classes starting at Marquette on Monday, the Hilltop squad will revert to the usual program of one workout a day. For the last two weeks, the Golden Avalanche gridmen have practiced twice daily and have made satisfactory progress in their offensive preparations.
Defense will be stressed in the final week before the Kansas game, with the freshmen demonstrating Jayhawk plays as scouted in the Sunflower eleven's opener with Bernie Bierman's Iowa Flyers.
KuKu's and K-Club men are asked to assemble on the north slope of Corbin hill at 7:15 p. m. Tuesday to organize the freshman induction.
Foster Sightly Improved
The condition of George O. Foster, retired registrar, was reported as slightly improved late yesterday. He was taken to Lawrence Memorial hospital early this week where his case was pronounced critical. Foster, who retired last spring after 44 years of service, was succeeded by Laurence Woodruff.

Kansas Man Stars For Horned Frogs
Coach Dutch Meyer of Texas Christian is about ready to rate his '42 team as a contender for this season's conference flag.
"I never had a bunch come along faster in the first weeks of practice." Dutch reports.
Scrimage—for keeps has been in the afternoon practice schedule every since the second day of practice. And the boys have gone at it with mid-season enthusiasm, the coach reports.
Promotion of Bob Balaban, 6-foot, 4-inch end from Caldwell, Ks., who was a member of the bad knee brigade of '41 and didn't even join the squad, to the first-string right end spot has been the development of the week.
Bob's pass catching has kept Coach Meyer all smiles and his defensive work has looked better than good.
The Frogs will continue two-a-day practice sessions through Saturday, September 19. Three days later — September 22 — they are scheduled to leave for Los Angeles, where Friday afternoon, September 25, they will meet the U. C. L. A. Bruins in the seasoner's opener. The Frogs will be hosts to the Kansas Jayhawks October 10.
STEAMROLLER—
(continued from page one) In the final period, however, the dike broke, as the weary Kansas defense allowed the visitors to push across the Jayhawk line five times in rapid succession.
The high geared Seahawk attack rang up 24 first downs compared to four tallied by the Jays. A net yardage of 628 yards was collected by the navy sprinters and passers. Kansas gained but 30 yards rushing. Evans' tosses accounted for another 68 yards.
The navy passers completed 9 out
of 10 attempted passes. Two of Evans' heaves were intercepted, while the Kansas defense intercepted one of the Seahawks' aerials. Held In First Period
The Jayhawks surprised the small crowd of 2,397 fans in the first quarter as they kept their bigger foes away from touchdown territory. An exchange of punts following the kickoff picked up yardage for Kansas. However, a penalty set the Jayhawks back, and following another punt, the navy attack began to roll. With Fisher and Langhurst doing the major share of the ball lugging, the Seahawk attack drove to the Kansas nine yard before it was halted. Huge George Svendsen, former Minnesota University and professional star, dropped back and位牌icked a field goal to send Bernie Bierman's outfit into the lead.
The navy team began to open up in the second quarter, as Schatzer entered the game and took charge of the Seahawk attack. Ripping the Kansas line to shreds, and with occasional assistance from Bernard Mertes, he carried the ball from his own 40-yard line over the Kansas goal in the first three minutes of the second period. Fred Gage, former Wisconsin university guard, kicked the extra point. Erik Beaver Fumble
Flick Recovers Fumble
Seconds later following the kickoff, the sailors again had the ball deep in Kansas territory as Gene
Flick, former Minnesota captain, recovered a Kansas fumble. Schatzer drove to the Jayhawk one-foot line, before the navy men were set back by a 15-yard penalty. The Kansas line hen held for jouns. After Ey-
ans had kicked out nicely from behind his own goal line, Schatzer once more took over. His pass to (continued to page five)

Freshman Practice Will Begin Tuesday
A larger turnout for freshman footbaI practice this fall than last year's frosh aggregation has, been predicted by freshman coach Wayne Replogle.
Football suits and other equipment will be checked out Monday from 1:30 to 4:30 at the stadium dressing room to freshman team candidates. Replogle has announced. The first regular practice session has been scheduled for Tuesday afternoon at 4 o'clock.
A few freshmen have been working out with the varsity during recent practice sessions, Replogle said. The freshman coach estimated that approximately 75 men will check out freshman uniforms. Of that number, he expects at least 50 to attend practices regularly throughout the fall. Last fall 65 freshmen checked out uniforms, with 45 of that number attending practices regularly throughout the season.
Pre-practice indications point to a strong freshman squad this fall, Replogle indicated. However, a complete picture of frosh prospects will not be possible until after the opening practice sessions.
The Jayhawk freshman team does not play a regular fall football schedule, but scrimmages with the varsity eleven frequently during the season.
