Tulane's Passing Worries Jayhawks
The reason? Tulane, the team that used a sharp passing attack to knock off highly rated Navy last week, comes to Kansas Saturday.
The Jayhawker football team, riddled by passing in early games this season and showing some improved defense in the last two, worked long and hard on pass defense yesterday.
Oklahoma yesterday had its roughest drill of the week in preparation for the Kansas State game this Saturday. The Sooners made several changes in the lineup.
Coach Jack Mitchell told the team to expect Tulane's attack to contain the sharpest passing it has seen this year.
Chet Vanatta, starting center until this week, is definitely out for the season. He suffered a leg injury in the Oklahoma game. The leg is in a cast.
Vanatta Out for Season
Ken Fitch, starting guard, was also injured in the game. He is expected to be back in action for the Kansas State game in two weeks.
Coach Dallas Ward of Colorado named his probable starters for the Nebraska game and for the first time in three years John Wooten didn't make the list. He is suffering a bruised knee.
Mitchell moved Rip Miller from tackle to left end and shifted Joe Sprekelmeyer from end to right guard. Both were second unit moves.
Tekes Beat Lambda Chi
Tau Kappa Epsilon had little trouble in defeating Lambda Chi Alpha 19-0 yesterday in a Fraaternity A intramural football game.
John Armstrong passed to Craig Haselwood for two touchdowns, one for 60 yards and the other for 40. Armstrong connected with Del Weighman with a 40-yard pass for the final score.
A 65-yard run by Kerr and a pass to Westhoff accounted for the touchdowns.
In other Fraternity A games, Sigma Phi Epsilon shut out Sigma Nu 16-0.
A safety by Jackson, an extra point catch by Hammond and a conversion by Kerr rounded out the scoring.
Gail Christy passed 55 yards to Don Culp to set up the first touchdown as Delta Tau Delta defeated Alpha Kappa Lambda 12-0. Baumgardner ran across for both scores.
Templinites pounded Pearson 39-0
"Tulsa has a good team and we will do well to stay ahead of them. But we should win," was the way Bill Easton, KU track coach, summed up the prospects.
The Tulsa team is made up of graduates of Will Rogers High School in Tulsa who have gotten together and formed a track club. The team captain is Dave Shubert. Now in its first year, the Tulsa Club hopes to become a permanent organization.
Looking for its 19th consecutive dual victory the Jayhawker crosscountry team meets the Tulsa Achilles Club at 10:30 a.m. this Saturday on the Allen Field House course.
Running without its ace, Billy Mills, the KU team placed five men in the first six places. The meet was won by Phil Coleman of Chicago in 20:42.7.
KU Runners Meet Tulsa
in Independent play. Joe Haines leo the winners as he passed for four touchdowns, three extra points and collected a pass from Jim Wilson for another touchdown.
Last Saturday the Kansas team won its 18th victory when it defeated the Chicago Track Club.
Finishing behind Coleman were Kansas runners Tom Stutka, Berry Crawford, Brian Travis, Clif Cushman and Dan Ralston in that order.
Jerry Macomber and Lee Crawford each caught one of Haines' touchdown passes. Wilson caught two more of them. Jeff Schwerin took a lateral and ran for the other touchdown.
"We expected Coleman to win," said Easton. "He is holder of the fastest steeplechase time by an American. He set the record last winter in Europe against the Russians. By running all winter he was in top condition Saturday."

Men Like Jobs On 'Chain Gang'
Independent—Bikes vs. Battenfeld; Rochdale vs. Hicks.
Fraternity B—Phi Kappa Sigma vs. Alpha Tau Omega I; Kappa Sigma vs. Acacia.
Football fans always talk about the 22 players on the field, sometimes about the officials, but never about three other men on the field.

These men form the "chain gang," the men who keep track of the football and the number of "downs" that have gone by.
Fans who see them running up and down and across the field may wonder why they want to do this work when they could sit in the stands like everyone else.
For Wilbur Duver and Jerry Rogers, KU's chain gang, the answer is simple. Duer is football coach at Lawrence Junior High School and Rogers coaches the line at Lawrence High School.
"But it's probably the poorest spot in the world to see the entire game," he added.
"I like the job because I can see the line play." Rogers explained.
Duver has been working at the Jayhawkers' games for 13 years. In that time he has missed only the games in which the visiting team brought a man to work on the chain.
Rogers has not missed a game in the seven years he has been carrying one of the markers.
"I get the stick out of the way fast," Duver said, when he was asked what he does when the action on the field suddenly comes straight for him.
He went on to explain that the marker attached to the chain has a sharp end and could be dangerous to the players.
"I just get out of the way, too." Rogers said. The officials usually tell them to move back so that no one will get injured."
Alley Flings Javelin To New Indoor Mark
In a recent Kansas indoor track practice, Bill Alley, Short Hills, N.J., junior set a new indoor javelin record.
He threw the javelin 230'6". Although this will not be entered in the record books because no official records are kept on indoor javelin throwing, this is the farthest it has been thrown indoors.
The old record was held by John Fromm of Washington State University set two years ago with a toss of 217" $ 9 \frac{3}{4} $ , said Don Pierce, athletic public relations director.
