TCU'S FARRINGTON TAKES CONVERSION PASS FOR FINAL SCORE...
Freshman Basketball Picture Is Good
Spearheaded by a high school All America, and six all-staters,
the KU freshman basketball squad is eager to tackle a new season
with optimism and vigor.
"We have the calibre of kids on this squad that will make it very hard to choose a starting five," beamed freshman coach Jerry Waugh.
"We are plenty satisfied. We have a well balanced team, and we are very pleased with the outlook for the coming season."
Charles Smith, 6-2, Junction City; Gary Arnett, 6-0, Broughton, who played at Clay Center, and Jerry Gardner, 6-1, Wichita, who played at Wichita East. The Oklahoman is Kenneth Hensley, 6-2, Tulsa.
An All America
The All America player is the much-heralded Wayne Hightower, 6-8 product of Overbrook High in Philadelphia. Five Kansas all-staters also dot the roster, as well as one from Oklahoma. They are: Larry Sterlin, 6-6, Scott City; Le兰 Flaschbarth, 6-5, Atkinson;
The team is scheduled to begin workouts on October 15. However, many of the prospects have been in training for some time, or have been working out all summer.
"The kids are very enthusiastic," commented Waugh. "We will be in good shape, and we will emphasize speed this year. Speed is very important in all sports, especially basketball.
Lots of Enthusiasm
with good ability." commented Waugh when questioned about Hightower. "Don't compare him to Wilt, though." he continued.
"Wayne is a different kind of player than Wilt was. He is a forward, while big Wilt played the post. Hightower is certainly a fine prospect, and he will be a credit to the school."
"Hightower? He's a fine kid
The Jayhawker freshmen will meet K-State in a home and home series, and will play host to Missouri, who boast a big crop of freshmen. They will also tackle the Kansas City University varsity in another contest, to fill out the schedule.
"Our squad this year is one of the best in recent years," closed Waugh. "The frosh will be aiming for one of their most successful years."
Thrown-Bat Victim Forgives
BOSTON — (UPI) — Ted Williams was "completely forgiven" by the victim of his latest temper tantrum, but American League President Will Harridge was a little more hard-minded and fined him $50.
The famed Boston slugger was still shaken and full of remorse over yesterday's incident, which came about when he threw his bat into the stands after striking out in the third inning against the washington senators.
The bat sailed 75 feet and hit an elderly woman sitting in a box seat
to the right of the Red Sox dugout,
The woman, Mrs. Gladys Heffernan,
69, and, coincidently, Red Sox
general manager Joe Cronin's
housekeeper, received a glancing
blow on the temple and suffered
only a bruise.
Although she could have been seriously injured, Mrs. Heffernan said, "It wasn't Ted's fault."
Duane Morris passed for 296 yards and two touchdowns in 1957, and punted 10 times with an average distance of 35 yards.

Big 8 Schedule Full Saturday
By United Press International
Dal Ward's Colorado eleven hops in Big Eight action this Saturday by tuckling a conference foe in the season's initial encounter.
Rated second best behind Oklahoma in this year's loop race, the Colorado Buffaloes meet Kansas State on the Buffs home grounds.
The rest of the conference teams except Oklahoma, moved into action Saturday. The Sooners and the Buffs worked out Saturday in scrimmages.
Kansas State marched past Wyoming 17-14 Saturday, marking the opening of Big Eight competition. Ben Grosse was the difference for K-State against Wyoming. He booted a field goal from the 22-yard line with 10 minutes left to put the Wildcats out in front 17-8. Wyoming charged back with another six-pointer but time ran out in favor of K-State.
Vanderbilt fooled a lot of experts by dashing Missouri 12-8 before a coast-to-coast television audience. Nebraska upset Penn State 14-7 and Iowa State doused arch-rival Drake 33-0.
Oklahoma State, which still doesn't figure in the Big Eight standings although it is a member of the conference, defeated Denver 31-14 in a regionally-televised contest.
Oklahoma's first taste of play this year will be against West Virginia at Norman, Okla. Other games this Saturday finds Iowa State in a nighter at Arizona, North Texas at Oklahoma State, Kansas in a night game at Oregon State, Idaho at Missouri, and Nebraska at Purdue.
