Football Squad Devotes Third Day To Defense
Defense was the main issue for the third straight football practice as the Jayhawker varsity, in red jerseys, scrimmaged the reserves in blue Tuesday afternoon.
The coaches could not have selected a bigger weakness to work on as the reserves humiliated the top two teams by easily scoring several touchdowns on them.
Larry Carrier, St. John sophomore,
replaced Jerry Baker, Minnesapolis
junior, in the backfield, and DeWitt
Lewis, Barnesville, Ohio sophomore,
replaced the injured Ervell Staab,
Hays junior, at guard. Both changes
were between the second and third
teams.
Coach Chuck Mather is very pleased with the physical condition of the team as a whole.
Notwithstanding a sparkling passing attack by quarterbacks Wally Strauch, Elmhurst, Ill. junior and Bob Marshall, Warensburg, Mo. sophomore, the blues outshone the Big Red even on defense.
Two heavy workouts are planned for Wednesday and Thursday, with an all-out scrimmage on Saturday.
Neither team seemed to be able to hold on to the ball in the muddy field. Each squad averaged over 10 fumbles.
"I know the boys are ready for heavy workouts. They all reported in top shape," he said.
Marquette Coach To U.S.C.
MILWAUKEE — (UP) — George Dickson, backfield coach at Marquette, has resigned to take a similar post at the University of Southern California. Dickson said he decided to take the USC job because it offers greater opportunity and will enable him to be nearer his invalid mother.

Rodgers Hailed As 'New Cousy'
NEW YORK — (UP) — Guy (the new Cousy) Rodgers of Temple stood out today as the top individual star seen so far in the National Invitational Basketball Tournament, but even Temple Coach Harry Litwack had to admit, "I've never seen anything like that Bradley team."
Rodgers really did look like he might become as great day as Bob Cousy of the Boston Celtics, scoring 26 points to lead Temple to a 77-66 victory over Dayton in the N.I.T. quarter-finals Tuesday night.
But Bradley stunned the 10,543 fans with its 116-81 triumph over Xavier of Ohio—coming from 21 points behind to win easily and, in the bargain, smash three Madison Square Garden scoring records. Despite Rodgers' individual brilliance, second-seeded Bradley now was moving into the role of title favorite.
Bradley will meet Temple in one semifinal Thursday night. St. Bonaventure will oppose Memphis State in the other and the winners will clash in the nationally-televised finale Saturday at 1 p.m.
