KU King in Fumbles Dept.
Kansas holds three out of six Big Eight records in the fumbles department; most fumbles season (44 in 1947), most fumbles lost game (8, Kansas vs. Missouri, 1950), and fewest fumbles season (32, 1956).
Bill Crank, Kansas. No. 2 quarterback last season behind Larry McKown, trails only Homer Floyd in scoring with 24 points.
Morris Moves Up To Top Q.B. Post
With Bill Crank out of the quarterback picture with a lame knee, Duane Morris has been moved up to the No. 1 position, a spot he has been waiting for during two seasons.
Morris stood ready last year when Bob Marshall reported for practice with a bad leg but was later shifted to left half entrusting quarterbacking to the original No. 3 and 4 hands, Crank and Larry McKown who was lost by graduation.
Crank led the Javhawkers in total offense on 500 yards and was one of Kansas' strong defensive standouts.
Morris came off the bench two years ago to rescue victories against Colorado and Kansas State, then guided wins over Oklahoma State and Missouri as a starter.
Backing up Morris will be Lee Flachsbarth and Larry Mcallister, one of which must shoulder a heavy load as Morris' relief man.
Flachsbarth fired three touchdown passes in the freshman team's smashing victory over Kansas State last year. He also has good speed and may prove to be the answer to Coach Jack Mitchell's problem.

McCallister got his first chance when Crank was injured in the spring.

Five Major Rule Changes
There are five major changes in major college football rules this season. They are:
- Goal posts have been widened about five feet, which may bring on more field goal try attempts and one-point conversion tries.
- Five time-outs instead of four.
- A lone player may enter the game while the clock is stopped as often as he wishes.
- On a successful conversion attempt, if the defensive team commits a foul, the offensive team can elect to take the conversion or try again.
- A team cannot be penalized more than half the distance to the goal line.
