Varsity Team Is Rounding Into Shape
Coaches Begin To Pick Candidates for Starting Positions After Week of Practice
The varsity football squad moved a step near game condition yesterday afternoon with a lengthy backfield drill, tapered off by a dummy scrimmage session. Monday the squad will start actual scrimmage. After more than a week of practice the coaches are beginning to size the candidates up for start-up games. In the final definite as yet, still a fairly good idea of the starting lineup can be had.
At ends, Arnold and White are two outstanding candidates. Both a theorist and a musician. Hardiaore, a reserve from last year, and Chil- wood, another sophomore, are also making a strong bid for the starting
Line Posts Filled
The tackle posts are more definitely filled with Boslevac and Ward, both regulars from last year, back to carry the brunt of the defense.
The guard positions are also well taken care of with two regulars back. They are Staplen and Anderson, both heavy, fast men.
At center the battle is between Jack Hall, lettered reserve and Charles Warren, a newcomer who plays the Ft. Scott Junior College team.
Backfield Indefinite
backfield is indefinite.

year and Wieneke was a regular last
replogge the year before. Meier and Caldwell are making a try for the starting position through their blocking ability.
There is a world of material for the halftack posts. Repogle, a regular, and Divens and Richardson, reserves, are well up in the race. However, they must fight off the challenges of such promising sophomores as Amerine, Sullivant, Cadwallader, Ebling and Rosacker.
The fullback position is developing into a first class race between Douglass, regular last year, and Shirk, who was a regular end last season. With the advantages, there is no prospect of Shirk's returning to an end position.
Frosh Get to Work
Fresh Get to Work
Monday, with the freshman game only five days away and the Washburn game only 11 days away, and with regular scrimmage starting, the backfield candidates will be sorted out and a better idea of the starting four can be obtained.
The freshmen got serious with their first scrimage yesterday morning. Hard work will be the order of the coming week with the important varsity game just ahead. Freshman Coach Conger said that he would probably have his starting lineup ready by Thursday.

Along the Sideline

KU's neighbors from the very north south, the Haskell Indians, will have to depend largely on new material for this year's team. Nevertheless Coach John F. Carmody feels that the 1937 team will be better than that of last year. His optimism is based on the new determination displayed in practice. The Indians, who are boys of high school age, will play only Ottawa teams. They open with Ottawa there and conclude their nine-game schedule with Missouri Valley at Marshall, Mo., on November 22 with their winer Baker on Oct 22 and McPherson on Nov. 11.
Four lettermen are returning to form a nucleus for this year's squad. The lhe are: William Washington, halback; Homer Folsom, center; Lloyd Yellow Horse, tackle; and a Mackey Kenyon, tackle. Some of the new men who look impressive are "Skeeter" Holloway (130-pound flash), halback; Abbey Arya (200-pound, Acy Red Leaf, d and Cedric No Afraid, tackle. These of last year's squad-men are also looking good. The team won't measure up to those of former years who used to rank with the leaders of the nation, but it should make a good show.
Coach Wes Fry of Kansas State has three sophomores and a junior to pour into the shoes left vacant by Ramblin' Red Elder, three years an all-star Big Six fullsuek. Probably the most prominent is Elmer Hackney, who has been his team's tank team. Hackney, who was high school heavyweight wrestling champion during his younger days, is being pushed by Bob Briggs, 180 pounds; Fred Klemp, 170 pounds; and James Broek, 185 pounds. He was terrible after all Fry's squad, consisting largely of sophomores, opens Oct. 2 against Boston College there.
"The Dear Shirk to end" movement received some active support the other morning in the Kansas City Times but the story proved to be just another rumor. Shirk, who last year was the Jayhawks' most popular player at an end position, is still playing fullback and it looks as though he may remain there. Meanwhile Lindsey is still worrying about what happens with Paul White sophonore wingman, outstanding Hardacre, Arnold and Chitwood are battling for the other regular position.
Shavings—The Lapetins, K. C. Ban Johnson champions, made short work of Concordia by winning four straight from the Kansas champions . . . We had the pleasure Friday of meeting Jack Buckman, x-Argentine high jumper and basketball player. Buckman had planned to attend George Washington University but switched at the last minute to Kansas and enrolled here yesterday. With Buckman, Engleman, Miller and Showalter already in school to name three, Buckman's ball outlook for the future doesn't look bad at all . . . Howard McCarty, 172-pound half-back, is slated to set the Big Six on fire according to early reports . . . If "Biff Jones backfield measured up to his line, Nebraska was beheaded toward the Rose Bowl this year.

He loved sports and it seemed as though he was on his way to a great athletic career when the accident killed all his dreams.
