Hawks In Good Shape For Battle With UCLA
Kansas Coach Chuck Mather figures his Jayhawkers to be in the best physical shape they have been in since the Oklahoma game. Only Joe Held, No. two fullback, is still on the ailing list, although Dave Preston's broken hand will limit his action to defense.
Mather noted that nearly all single wing teams around the nation have been enjoying success this year. This is probably due to the rarity of single wing teams this season.
The Jayhawkers worked on defense against the UCLA single wing attack Tuesday. They also smoothed their offense.
No changes were made in the KU line-up. Bob Marshall, who was injured in the Nebraska game, was back running at the left halfback position.
Mather said he plans to take 39 men on the plane which will depart for Los Angeles at 7:30 a.m. Friday morning.
Addeo Rejoins K-State
MANHATTAN — (UP) — Halfback Tony Addeo, who missed the Marquette game last weekend, returned to the Kansas State football squad Tuesday, but his spot on the first string was filled. Addeo was out of action because of a shoulder bruise.

Halfback Gene Keady played in Addeo's place against Marquette and scored two touchdowns and it appeared the first unit spot was his for good.
Coach Bus Mertes said he probably will make no changes in the lineup as the squad sustained no serious injuries against Marquette.
MU Drills On Defense
COLUMBIA, Mo. — (UP) — Preparing for the nation's most highly-touted offense, Missouri's football squad ran through extensive drills on defense Tuesday.
Missouri meets mighty Oklahoma at Norman Saturday in its last slim chance for the Orange Bowl bid.
Coach Don Faurot shifted right tackle Bob Lee to the first string in the only major change.
The Latin-American soccer team scored two goals in the last five minutes of play to defeat the Asian-African team 4-2 Sunday. This victory enabled them to win the roundrobin soccer tournament sponsored by the International Club.
Latin America Wins Soccer
Teams representing Asia-Africa, Europe, and Latin-America participated in the tournament. In the two previous games Europe had tied Latin-America and Asia-Africa.
An all-star team will be selected to play against an international team from Fort Leavenworth, Missouri University and Nebraska University. The games will not be played until spring.
To select the all-star team, practice for the three teams will be held at 4:30 p. m. every Tuesday and Thursday as long as the weather permits.
Good Recovery By Swaps
CAMDEN, N.J. — (UP) — Swaps, fourth highest money winner in American racing history, appeared today to be beating the "100-1 odds" against his recovery from a broken leg suffered during a workout at Garden State Park nearly a month ago.
In the last three championship seasons, Henry R. "Red" Sanders and his UCLA football teams have won 26 games and lost only four.

U.S. Olympians Show Power
GEELONG, Australia — (UP) — The United States track and field team won six of nine events tonight while flexing its muscles in a pre-Olympic meet with nine other nations.
Parry O'Brien led a 1-2-3 Yank sweep in the shot put as the United States dominated the competition in chilly, 45-degree weather before 15,000 spectators.
Mike Agostini, the Trinidad spinner from Fresno (Calif.) State College won the 220-yard dash; Chris Basher of Britain won the two-mile run and Jim Bailey of Australia captured the 1,000-yard run to prevent the Yanks from sweeping all nine events.
Ken Bantum of New York was second and Bill Nieder of Lawrence, Kan., was third before a crowd of 15,000.
Hinting at the wholesale assault which will be made on current Olympic marks during the games, O'Brien of Glendale, Calif., heaved the 16-pound shot 60 feet, $4\frac{1}{2}$ inches. This effort, produced in chilly, 45-degree temperature, far surpassed his 1952 Olympic record of 57 feet, 1.43 inches but was well off his best 1956 effort of 63 feet, 2 inches.
Milt Campbell of Plainfield, N.J. set a new Australian record of 14 seconds in winning his heat of the 120-yard dash but didn't compete in the final.
Ira Murchison of Chicago, Thane Baker of Elkhart, Kan., Bobby Morrow of San Benito, Tex., and Leamon King of Delano, Calif., defeated an Australian foursome in the 440-yard relay. The Americans won in 40.7 seconds. The world record is 40.2.
John Landy, world record holder in the mile, finished 12th in a field of 15 as Chris Basher of Britain took the two-mile run with a new Australian mark of eight minutes, 45.6 seconds. Phil Coleman of Urbana, Ill., was second.

Class Football Finals Set For 4 At Stadium
The intramural class Hill football championship will be decided at 4:00 p.m. today when the juniors and seniors meet in Memorial Stadium.
The seniors romped past the sophomores 19-6 and the juniors blasted the freshmen 33-0 Monday to enter the final round of the class tournament.
The game should be a high-scoring contest as the teams move into Memorial Stadium from the intramural fields. The Stadium field is 100 yards long compared to only 80 for the intramural fields. With both teams possessing excellent passing attacks the greater playing area should make it an offensive game all the way. The lineups:
Seniors
Offense—Mike Swanson, Les Morrison, John Lounsbury, Dee Lander, Al Jaso, Frank McKnight, Gary Porter and Darrell Simpson.
Defense—Jim Curry, Herb Wilkening, Greg Fouts, Jerry Cox, Ted Winkler, Rick Wurster, Jaso and Swanson.
Juniors
Offense — John Newlin, Frank
Juniors
Becker, Dale Flanagan, Dale Gulledge, Jim Steerman, Bob Boyer, John Zoellner, and Jim Trombold.
Defense — Frank Ise, Dale Vermillion, Becker, Pete Blaire, Bill Howard, Newlin, Steerman and Trombold, with Terry Mallott and Park McGee possibly starting in place of Ise and Vermillion.
