Sneak Preview of Kansas' '58 Football Squad Is Today
This afternoon is sneak preview afternoon for the 1958 edition of the KU football team. Jack Mitchell and his staff will, for the first time, see just what they will have to work with in the coming years at KU.
Mitchell will be in his first season, replacing Charles Mather who resigned last fall.
Mitchell recently said that the KU team, as slow as they are now, could be defeated 40 or 50 points a game when kick-off time comes in September. He said the Jay-hawkers will have to work hard on improving their speed and fundamentals to avoid complete buildupation next fall.
Quarterback is also a position
that brings a sour look to Mitchell's face. It isn't so much what he has, but what he doesn't have that hurts the new coach. Missing from spring practice and probably next fall is quarterback Bobby Marshall. Marshall was expected to add a great deal to the overall football picture at KU and Mitchell isn't hiding the fact that he'll miss him.
Marshall was injured the first of the season last year and has had trouble with his knee since that time. He has been playing some baseball but isn't expected to do any work on the gridiron.
Mitchell will be trying to adapt a quarterback (Duane Morris is the No. 1 prospect at the time) to bis
version of the split-T. Mitchell will also have veteran Larry McKown and rookies Don Wrench and Roger Boeger to work with. Halfback Buddy Merritt will also be trying out at that spot.
Tackle and guard spots will also be weak, according to Mitchell. There has been a wholesale switch of personnel in these departments and Mitchell is hoping the men can make adjustments before next season.
Workouts will be held on Monday, Wednesday, Thursday and Saturday of each week, providing the weatherman cooperates. There are 20 workouts scheduled before the varsity-alumni game in May.
Musial, Williams In Headlines Again
By UNITED PRESS
Stan Musial and Ted Williams are sharing the headlines again today—Musial because he's off to one of his best starts and Williams because he's off to one of his worst.
The 37-year old Musial finally got the St. Louis Cardinals into the win column Sunday when he knocked in four runs with a pair of 2-run homers in a 9-4 victory over the previously unbeaten Chicago Cubs. He's collected 10 hits, including four homers, in five games for a .435 average.
The 39-year old Williams, meanwhile, went hitless in four trips as the Boston Red Sox suffered their fifth defeat in six games—a 10-inning, 6-5 loss to the Washington
Senators. Williams' average is now an inglorious .000 after seven futile at bats.
In other major developments:
-Bob Turley's 4-hitter enabled the New York Yankees to defeat the Baltimore Orioles, 7-0, for their fifth victory in six games.
—Robin Roberts defeated the Milwaukee Braves, 3-2 and equalled Grover Cleveland Alexander's record of 190 victories by a Philadelphia Phillies' pitcher.
Four more "little league homers" were hit in the controversial Los Angeles Coliseum as the Giants butchered the Dodgers, 12-2.
Musial softened up Jim Brosnan, who shut out the Cardinals on opening day, with a 2-run homer in the first inning and blasted another during the Cardinals' 4-run fifth-inning rally. Don Blasigname had three hits for the Cardinals who had lost four straight games to the Cubs.
Roy Sievers broke up the Boston-Washington game when he hit Murray Wall's first pitch in the 10th inning into the left field bleachers. Sievers also had a triple and a double and Norm Zauchin homered for the Senators, who share second place in the American League with Kansas City.
Turkey walked seven batters but struck out eight as he became the fourth Yankee pitcher to go the distance and the second to pitch a shutout. Yankee pitchers now have yielded a total of eight runs and 37 hits in six games—by far the best pitching record in the majors. Norm Sieburn homered and Mickey Mantile and Gil McDougal had two hits each for the Yankees.
Bill Toalson, Dodge City junior had the best round for the week-end with a par 72. Next in line was Bob
Wood, a junior from Liberal, who had a 73. The team recently elected Jim Davies team captain.
SPRINGFIELD, Mass. — (UP) — The Hershey Bears, the runaway kingpins during the regular American Hockey League campaign, reigned today as the new Calder Cup champions.
The squad meets Washburn Wednesday and Missouri Saturday. This schedule will again give the team time to practice before the matches. Waugh said that each team member is qualifying on the week-ends.
GAIL HODGSON ran 4:07 anchor mile
The team now has a record of four losses and two victories. The losses were to Houston, the NCAA champs, TCU, Wichita, and OU. They have defeated K-State and Nebraska.
Golfers Down Nebraska, 16-5, But Lose To Sooners
Jerry Waugh, golf coach said his team played one of its best matches against Oklahoma. As a whole he said that the team performed very well. "The boys had a chance to practice for these matches and this practice probably accounts for their performance."
Hershey Bears Win Title
Over the week-end the KU golf team lost to Oklahoma, the defending Big Eight champions, 162-41s, and defeated Nebraska. 16-5, Saturday.
A's Win, Begin Cleveland Series
Hershey defeated fourth-place Springfield, 2-1 Sunday night, to win the best-of-seven final series.
Chicago pilot Al Lopez filed a game protest after a fourth inning play in which interference was ruled. Billy Goodman was called out when he collected with Urban on the first base line after Urban attempted to field the Chicagoan's slow roller.
Tuttle's homer, his first of the season, snapped a 101 inning skein of homeless innings for Chisox starter, Bill Fischer. Hal Smith had rapped the last one off the balding righthander in Chicago last May 27.
Urban's shutout was spoiled in the top of the ninth by a double to the right field corner by pinchhitter Don Jackson.
Kansas City won its third game in five starts, 8-2, over Chicago yesterday. Jack Urban went the route on a five-hitter while Bill Tuttle and Billy Hunter accounted for six runs with a pair of three-run homers.
KANSAS CITY, Mo—(UP)—The Kansas City Athletics, deadlocked with Washington for second place in the American League, open a two game series with Cleveland tonight with Ralph Terry opposing Jim (Mudcat) Grant.
Both Grant and Terry scored victories in the Cleveland-Kansas City series in Cleveland last week. Grant, a rookie whose name was not carried on the Indians' spring roster, will be making his second major league appearance.
