Spring Gridsters Start Heavy Scrimmage Monday
Two weeks of spring football practice have passed and the men are looking forward to scrimmage work which starts next week.
Very little scrimmaging has been done by the squad so far. Most of the practice periods have been spent in learning plays and in passing.
Paul Hardman, end, reported for practice last Thursday and Gene Long, guard, is now in a suit after having a siege of the "flu."
Thursday's practice started with the whole squad limbering up in a passing drill. Then Coach Henry turned over the line men to coach Hurt for blocking practice.
The backs have been working on a lot of "spot" passes. Bill Palmer, Harlan Altman, Hoyt Baker, Gene Roberts, Kenny Thompson and John Conley have all been showing ability in their passing.
Football Teams Tougher Next Year
Otto Schnellbacher and Bill Brill
Many college grid coaches are gloomy as to football prospects next year thanks to enlistment of players in the country's armed forces, but Vic Hurt, Kansas line coach, thinks otherwise.
Hurt looks for more rugged games on the gridiron next fall. "Since young America is in a fighting mood," he said, "due to present war conditions, I expect that football next year will be just a little tougher and probably a little rougher."
Hurt believes that football squads will be larger next year owing to the government's plan of universal physical conditioning to prepare the nation for war tasks.
"Calisthenics are good," Hurt observed, "but competitive sports not only build muscles but also develop leadership, quick thinking, and spirit, all of which are vitally important in combat."

have been looking good in snagging passes from their end positions.
Coach Henry had planned to start scrimmage last week, but bad weather early in the week did not permit good practice and the basketball tournament in Kansas City held down attendance.
With basketball season over, Ray Evans, halfback, will check out for practice soon.
Intensive drill on "T" formation plays has been the main activity for the backfield men so far.
Next Friday, the coaches intend to have a regular game played between two teams picked from the squad. Each Friday the squad will be divided and a game will be played under game conditions with officials.

Brains vs Brawn ★★★ Coach Thrown
New York, —(UP)— Joe Sapora, bachelor of science and master of arts, is being dropped as wrestling coach of the College of the City of New York because he isn't a doctor of philosophy, and he doesn't like it. He said that he was a victim of faculty politics.
As a matter of fact, he said, if the College would wait a few months, he would have a doctorate of philosophy, inasmuch as he was well advanced in his studies for one. And in all his pursuit of knowledge he added, he had never learned why a Ph.D. was necessary to teach undergraduate musclemen the science of the hammer-lock, the scissor-grips and the half-nelson.
His assistant, Norman Oberhofer, who has been a tutor at City College for 11 years, also is being dropped because he isn't a Ph. D. Oberhofer also is studying toward a doctorate of philosophy. "I don't know what a doctorate of philosophy has got to do with wrestling," he said.
In the practical application of the science of wrestling Sapora has been imminently successful. At the University of Illinois, from which he was graduated in 1930, he was national intercollegiate wrestling champion. He came to New York 10 years ago to work for City College and for several years was national A.A.U. champion.
He has turned out many successful squads as coach. This year's team won seven of eight matches.
The decision to fire Sapora came after officials had discovered a by-law in the statutes of the board of higher education making it mandatory for all tutors to be doctors of philosophy after five years. Although the by-law was passed in

1938, it made no provision for those already in the school system.
Sapora also is an instructor in physical education, but he saw no reason why that should require a Ph.D., considering his other qualifications.
Students were making speeches and circulating petitions against his dismissal.
"We'd want Joe even if he couldn't sign his own name," one supporter said.
