Coach Chuck Mather announced Wally Strauch, last year's top passer. will be ready for duty against Colorado. Straugh has been benched for four weeks with a knee injury.
Lynn McCarthy, last season's top defensive, also was reported in shape for action. He was stabbed in a fight in Kansas City in August.
Tigers Work On Offense
COLUMBIA—(UP) Missouri's first two football units worked on their own split-T plays yesterday and then got a look at Southern Methodist University's "diversified" T attack.
Coach Don Faurot devoted nearly half of the workout to several brief drills on fundamentals. Some time was spent on passing practice.
Missouri has almost doubled its ground effectiveness this season, gaining 396 yards in its first two games as compared with a 105-yard average last year. However, last year's team had a 121-yard passing average compared to the present team's 105.

NCAA Prepares For New Attack
KANSAS CITY, Mo.—(UP) —The National College Athletic Association will prepare "several" more cases for possible punishment in a two day meeting of its infractions committee opening here tomorrow.

BROOKLYN, --(UP)—The favored New York Yankees, bent on revenge, went out before President Eisenhower and behind their ace left hander, Whitey Ford today to prove that the Brooklyn Dodgers' World Series victory last year was a fluke.
Maglie Reaches For First World Series Win Today
By UNITED PRESS
The Yankees were 6-5 favorites to win the opening game and a last-minute flood of betting money on them made the American League champions 8-5 to take the series.
But old Sal Maglie, baseball's "Barber" who shaves them close with his pin-point curve ball, was out to show 'em it wasn't.
Rescued from the game's scrap heap at 39 last May, Maglie went on to become the key factor in Brooklyn's pennant triumph and won a chance to achieve the one ambition he has left—to win a World Series game.
McCue is a main factor in determining whether the Jayhawkers go to the Bowl. Last Saturday he received more individual oviations than any other Jayhawk player and each time he was cheered he lived up to the expectations of the crowd.
"We'll go to the Orange Bowl." This seems to be a unanimous opinion among KU football team members and Charlie McCue is no exception.
Yankees Were 8-5
Against COP he played only in the second half, but rushed for 28 yards, caught a key pass for 24 yards and scored the touchdown which enabled the Jayhawkers to narrow the opponents margin 20-13.
With fair weather forecast for the 11 a.m. (CST) starting time, 27-
Charlie McCue Confident Of KU Orange Bowl Trip
This week Coach Mather said,
McCue's football career started at Lawrence High School where he was a high school All-American.
"McCue has been boosted to the No.1 right halfback spot on the basis of his inspirational play in Saturday's 27-27 tie with College of the Pacific.
After leaving Lawrence High he played a year of freshman ball at Southern Metnodist University. This was followed by a year of junior college ball at Coffeyville and a year of work before coming to KU this year as a junior. At Coffeyville he received All-State honors. The 182-pounder has this season and one more of eligibility.
One of the greatest helps in starting my football career," he said,
year-old Ford and Maglie were expected to work before a sellout crowd of about 35,000.
The Dodgers took the Yankees in a seven-game thriller last year, their first series victory in nine tries. Johnny Podres, chubby southpaw who was the pitching hero of that triumph, now is serving in the Navy, but Brooklyn expects the swarthy, scowling Maglie to make up for that.
Maglie Wants First
A series triumph is the only prize that has eluded the righthander from Niagara Falls, N. Y. He failed in his only two previous series chances, both as a member of the New York Giants. He lost the fourth game of the 1951 series against the Yankees and was knocked out of the first game of the 1954 series by the Cleveland Indians.
But Maglie has been almost a sensation since the Dodgers purchased him from the Indians in May. He racked up 13 victories, including the only no-hitter of his career against the Philadelphia Phils on Sept. 25 in a game the Dodgers had to win to stay in the pennant race. Even in the midst of the clebration of his no-hit performance, Sal was thinking about today.
"This was wonderful," he said, "But the one I really want to win is the one I'm pitching next Wednesday."
Dodger manager Walter Alston hesitated before naming Maglie Tuesday as the opening game hurler, waiting to see whether Sal would be able to pitch with only three days rest. Sal, who usually requires more rest for his aging arm, said flatly, "I'm ready."
"was the encouragement that my folks gave me."
McCue is an education major and plans to coach after graduation. Expressing his view on KU, he said, "They've really been good to me."
And if he continues to play like he did against C.O.P. the Jayhawkers can afford to be good to him
