Varsity-Freshman Battle Saturday
The varsity will square off against the freshmen in an early-morning intrasquad scrimmage Saturday morning. Game time will be 8:30 a.m.
The latest flood of injuries have weakened the quarterback and right halfback spots. Bill Crank is out indefinitely with a knee injury as is prospective halfback Curtis McClinton. Jim Jarrett, freshman right half, received a lame knee during practice.
This puts Duane Morris in the number one quarterback slot for Saturday's scrimmage. Dave Harris will probably start at left half and either Doyle Schick or Fred Bukaty will be at fullback. John Peppercorn should start at right half.
As of now, it looks as if Peppercorn's shift from tackle ot halback will be one of the best things to happen in spring practice this year.
"John has done better than we anticipated," Coach Jack Mitchell emphasizes. "His blocking and defense are very good. And the most remarkable thing is that he doesn't fumble and is probably our best pass receiver."
Peppercorn was shifted from left to right halfback this week after injuries cut the talent in the right half spot.
The lineups for Saturday's match are:
Varsity; LE—Dewitt Lewis, Chuclu Lukaina; LT—Stan Kirshman, Harlan Mook, Bob Steeckline; LG—Dick Rohfl, Larry Martin; C—Fred Hagemann, Jerry Brown, Dick Hamilton; RG—Joe Spurney, Phil Kruze; PT—Ken Fitch, Ed Alberg; RE—Dale Rembsberg, Sam Simpson, Joe Sprecklemeyer; QB—Duane Morris, Dan Ertz; LH—Dave Harris, Fred Trenary; RH—John Peppercorn, Jim
Cyclones Try to Keep Streak Going Today
Iowa State's Cyclones, with a four-game winning streak to protect, hope to make it seven and take a firmer grip on third place in the Big Eight baseball race in their series at Kansas State today and tomorrow.
The Cyclones will face the Wildcats, still looking for a 1959 victory, in a single game today and a pair of 7-inning contests tomorrow. The first of these Saturday games will start at 10 a.m. as part of the Wildcat All-Sport Day.

Floyd and Brian Clash Tonight at Indianapolis
INDIANAPOLIS, Ind.
—(UPI)—Champion Floyd Patterson is a lopsided 10-1 favorite to beat lantern-jawed Brian London of England tonight in perhaps the strangest heavyweight title fight ever scheduled.
Patterson and his handlers arranged this 15-round bout with the semi-exiled Britisher at the Fair Ground Coliseum as a "tune-up" — a high class workout to sharpen Floyd for his million-dollar defense against Sweden's Ingemar Johansson at New York, June 25.
An advance sale of $100,000 indicated a crowd of 8,000 and a gate of $130,000 for the first world title fight of any kind ever held in Indiana. The TV-radio fee is an additional $175,-000.
The bout will be televised and broadcast nationally at 10 p.m. (EDT) by the National Broadcasting Co., with a TV-blackout on a 75-mile radius in the Indianapolis area.
From a cash angle, it will be the most lucrative tune-up in history. London, British Empire ex-champion, is guaranteed $60,000 plus trans-Atlantic expenses for three people. Patterson's purse may approximate $238,000.
From the professional angle, Patterson not only is risking his title, but he's chancing an injury—a face cut or a fracture—that might cause postponement or cancellation of his June classic with European champion Johansson.
In his Indianapolis sparring sessions, big, black-haired Brian displayed a rough-house aggressiveness that menaced his mates not only with his fists but with his head and elbows. Although London's elongated chin is an inviting target, his street-brawler style could make him the wrong opponent for a champion who hopes to emerge without face wounds or broken hands.
Manager Cus D'Amato and trainer Dan Florio will be sweating hailstones tonight during 24-year-old Floyd's fourth defense of the crown.
London lost his British Isles and British Empire titles in his
last fight to England's Henry Cooper on a decision, Jan 12. But he still is ranked fourth among world contenders by our National Boxing Association and eighth by "Ring" magazine.
The Cooper defeat was only London's fourth in 26 starts. He never was knocked off his feet, though he was stopped once when wooxy and bleeding. A fair puncher, he registered 19 knockouts.
London, like Patterson, is 24. Champion Floyd, Rockeville Centre, N.Y., is a lopsided favorite because of his speed, skill, punch and record. He knocked out 15 of his last 16 opponents and now seeks his 22nd straight victory. He lost but one of his 35 starts.
