University Daily Kansan SPORTS Gridiron Stars Begin Action Today
The sport of the pigskin will re-enter KU's athletic scene today as spring football practice gets underway.
Seventeen lettermen are listed on the squad expected to number 55.
John Peppercorn, All-Big Eight tackle, will exchange his line position for that of halfback. Coach Jack Mitchell has made the move in an effort to inject more speed in the graduation-weakened backfield.
"We have some good young ends coming up and feel we can spare John from that position." Mitchell explained. "If things do not work out at halfback we'll return him to end."
Other shuffling, all of which will move personnel from the backfield to the line, include: Chuck Lukinac, from right half to end; Andy Graham, from fullback to center, and Ken Fitch and Gary Clothier shifting from guard to the tackle spot. Graham is the only freshman in the group.
Returning lettermen from the 1958 team are: Ends—Roger Hill, DeWitt Lewis, Dale Remsberg, Sam Simpson; Tackles—Stan Kirshman, Peppercorn;
Guards—Clothier, Fitch, Dick Rohlf, Joe Spurney; Centers—none; Quarterbacks — Bill Crank; Halfbacks—Dave Harris, Lukinac, Duane Morris; Fullbacks—Fred Bukaty, Norm Mailen, and Doyle Schick.
Bill Burnison, a letterman at center, will miss spring workouts because of a knee operation.

Tennis Team Downs NU
Coach Denzell Gibbens and his five KU tennis marksmen bagged their first big game Saturday when they defeated Nebraska 5-2 on the KU courts. It was the Jayhawkers' first win in five outings.
The Jayhawkers host Wichita in a return match Wednesday.
KU came from behind to claim the victory. Dave Coupe, Arkansas City junior, used his powerful overhead smash to best advantage in turning in the first victory of the afternoon. Nebraska quickly followed up with two singles victories, but Lynn Sieverling rallied from a 2-5 deficit to win his singles match tying things at 2-2. Salvit Lekagal put the Jayhawkers ahead to stay with his singles victory. KU won both doubles matches to clinch it.
