A MINUTE TO RELAX—John Peppercorn, tackle, takes a breather during an afternoon session. Peppercorn has been applauded by coach Jack Mitchell as "the best lineman I've ever coached."
Tackle Spots Lack Necessary Depth
The tackle position on the Kansas football squad lacks depth so much that two or three injuries would weaken the line considerably. The sophomores will have to improve a lot during the first part of the season before this situation will get any better. As it is, John Peppercorn, last year's varsity left end, is the standout. Coach Mitchell has called Peppercorn "the best lineman I've ever coached." Peppercorn will play defensive end and offensive tackle on this year's team.

Behind Peppercorn are two sophmores, Rudy Mauser, and Stan Kirshman. They are willing, but they must improve if the left side is to have adequate depth. Two guards on
last year's team are in as right tackles this year. They are Bill Blasi and Chev Vanatta.
If Pepperecorn, Blasi and Vanatta can avoid injuries long enough for the sophomores to gain experience, the Kansas line will acquire the depth it badly needs.
