University Dalfy Kansan Home-field tradition helps Bruins Snorts Writer By GARY BEDORE Two young coaches will bring two young teams into tradition-filled Los Angeles Coliseum tomorrow night, when KU battles the 19th-ranked UCLA Bruins. The kick-off is scheduled for 9 p.m. CDT. The Bruins do not figure to draw that many fans against KU, but the stadium is full of tradition, being the home for Florida SC or SC. Angela Ramsar professional football team. The Bruins, coached by 33-year-old Terry Donahue, lost to Houston, 17-13, Monday night in the Astrodome. The team has no advantage against KU, coached by 37-year-old Bud Moore. "ITS SOMETHING our players have looked forward to," head coach Bad Moore said, and I think we're getting close to being ready to play a football game." The Jayhawks, 01 after last Saturday's 28-14 loss to Texas A & M, left for Los Angeles this morning and will practice at 7 tonight in the Coliseum. And, it promises to be a big advantage, since the mummid 84-year-old Coliseum is in the process of being excavated. "We normally leave Friday night, but we wanted to leave a little early and see some of Los Angeles and work out at the same time." he said. In preparing to play UCLA, KU does not have to worry about stopping star halffall Thetica Brown, who dislocated his髌 bout against Houston. Last year, Brown gained 1,022 yards, becoming the first sophomore in UCLA history to gain more than 1,000 yards. "brown is a super running back." Moore said, "with a fine team as a base." He's now "backed" by "backs." BROWN'S REPLACEMENT will be sophomore Susan Saenz, who gained exposure in UCLA's IAFT. "The Bruins' other halfback in their Vee-P offense is junior James Gwens, who ran for the first time on Saturday." The Bruins' halfbacks can do more than run with the football, however. Against Houston, quarterback Rick Bashore complex completes a throw to the endzone four of them for 31 yards. DESITTE BASHORE'S performance, DESITTE DRYAN Domaine said he may not start the play. For the game, Bastore completed 16 of 27 passes for 40 yards, and those statistics included 30 touchdowns. "Their passing game is outstanding," Moore said. "Their quickness and aggressiveness are big concerns for us." "I thought he played well, but we have two quarterbacks, and I'm thinking of making a change," he said last night in a phone conversation from Los Angeles. The Bruins other quarterback is junior Steve Bukich, who has not played this season.

Mike Higgins has recovered from an ankle injury he sustained in the A & M game, and will try to improve on his 51 vards rushing this season. Kansan Predictions "I always have incentive to win," Donahue said. "Next year when we play Kansas at Lawrence I'll probably really have incentive because it'll bring back memories of when I lived there. I met my wife at Kansas." Tomorrow's game has some added significance.

Just because it's the first cross country meet of the year and the field will be made up mainly of small schools doesn't mean the students won't be playing today's Wesley State Invitational lightly. Runners to Wichita Moore said that coaching against another young coach had some disadvantages. "I'm looking forward to finding out where we are," he said. "We've just now started to pick up our running pace, and with our young people, it'll be interesting." He also is also important because it will give us good experience running in a crowded field."

Sports Leadership Steff Photo by GEORGE MILLENER Defensive tackle Franklin King will be looking for better things from KU's young defense after giving up 28 points to Texas A&M. The 6-0, 255-pound junior from Pocatello, Idaho was appointed team co-captain for tomorrow's contest against the Bruins of UCLA. King inspired by religion By JASON NUSS Sports Writer Most defensive tackles credit their success to their speed or strength. Not makin' Kun "The only reason I play football is for Christ," King said quietly. "I 'am a Christian. I hope that through my play, I can glorify Him." King is a 6-0, 252-pound junior from Pocatello, Idaho. A potential Big-Eight candidate, King has started every game since coming to the University of Kansas. "I'd like to keep that streak going." King said. "I enjoy playing football, and through football, I can glorify Christ. That's who 1 play ball for." If it were not for a little bit of luck, King's streak of starting games at KU would not have happened. A three-sport letterman in "It was kind of lucky," King admitted. "A guy in town, a KU alumnus, saw me play and called the KU coaches. After that, they came after我 pretty hard." nigh school, King was not highly recruited by major colleges. HOWEVER, THE recruiting did not go all that smooth. Kansas was in the process of changing coaches, replacing Don Fambrough with Bud Moore. "That was kind of different," King said. "Fambrough's staff started recruiting me, but I signed with Coach Moore's coaching staff." King fit right in the football program, starting the 1975 season opponent against Washington State. He has been a fixture in the defensive line every since. King enjoyed an excellent freshman year, finishing runumper to teammate Dennis Balagua who received the Big Eight Conference's freshman-of-the-Year award. In the opener, Pete LaCock singled love Willie Wilson in the 11th inning to give the Royals a 7-6 victory: Royals' streak to 16; magic number now 7 Oakland pitcher Pablo Torrealba carried a 4-1 lead and a five-hitter into the sixth inning, but the Royals scored three runs in the sixth on Cowens' two-run double and John Mayberry's single. Wilson, called up from Omaha Sept. 9, poked an opposite field single to left and then stole second on a pitchout. Bair then intentionally walked Darrell Porter before LaCock slapped an opposite field single to left to score Wilson. Doug Bird, 11-4, picked up the opening-game victory with 4 2-3 innings of relief. KANAS CITY, Mo. (AP) - Al Cowens left off the 10th inning with a towering home run into the left-field bleachers, giving the Kansas City Royals a 9 victory over the Oakland A's last night, a swipe of power and their 10 consecutive hump. The Royals' winning streak is the longest in the major leagues since the New York Yankees won 18 in a row in 1953. The Royals, who have tied a team rec score for foresight to be reduced their losses to seven for clinching the American League West Division crown. Last year as a sophomore, King finished second on the team in tackles, behind All-Big Eight tackle Mike Butler. Cowens' shot off Doug Bair, 34, was his 23rd of the season and gave Steve Mingori, 24, the victory. Bair also was the losing pitcher in the first game. "With Butter around the last two years, it seemed like everybody would run at me," King said. "How opposing teams attack us are we? We will just have to wait and see." King said he is maturing more, both as a football player and a leader. IN LAST LEAST's opener against Texas A & M, King was credited with 11 tacks, including two that resulted in a loss of 23 yards. "I feel they ran more away from me than teams did last year but we'll just have to wait and see what other teams will do," Kling said. "I definitely think I'm more mature this year than last," he said. "I adjusted quicker to certain things during the game than I have in the past. "As for being a leader, somebody's got to, and I don't mind leading," King said. "Being a leader doesn't mean doing a lot of yellings, and doesn't involve doing the job after things." His leadership qualities may be his defense, defense, according to determined coordinator of the "FRANKLIN HAS really shown us something this fall," Jones said. "He displayed his leadership during practice and during the game Saturday. He has been selected as one of the co-captains for this week's game." King does not have the prototype body for a defensive tackle. "I'm not as tall as most defensive tackles, and I personally feel I am as strong as any in the nation," King said. "But I think my key is to be stronger than any defensive tackle in the nation." King has been mentioned as a potential All-Nig Eight player, but that is not one of the blades. "I don't play for man," he said. "I play for wounds I awards much more than it. His pliocraft is."
