CHET VANATTA—A first team center and linebacker for the Jayhawkers during their first five games, this sophomore from Bartlesville, Okla., has been moved to left guard in an attempt to bolster the Kansas line. Vanatta was originally a guard on last year's freshman team, but his first appearance at the position as a varsity member will come Friday night in Miami.
Burnison Moves To First Team
Kansas Coach Chuck Mather moved Bill Burnison to the No. 1 center position Tuesday in a switch which sent Chester Vanatta to the left guard spot. Homer Floyd, former left half, moved to the fullback spot replacing the injured Don Feller and John Franciscec took over Floyd's position.
The rest of the KU backfield has Wally Strauch at quarterback and either Charlie McCue or Larry Carrier at the right halfback position.
The Jayhawkers, whose practices will be cut one day short this week since they are leaving for Miami on Thursday, ran through a full-scale scrimmage Tuesday. They will leave by plane from Kansas City Thursday morning. Coach Mather plans a light workout for his squad today.
Don Feller, who suffered a badly bruised arm in the Oklahoma game, is not expected to see action Friday night according to Mather. Also on the doubtful list are guard Tom Russel, who sat out last week's game with a sprained ankle he injured in the Iowa State game, and Bobby Robinson, who suffered a bruised chest in the Oklahoma game.
Mather said that Larry Carrier is the only man on the first two teams who has not been sick or injured in the last three weeks.
Harp Says Team Progressing Fine
In the midst of their second week of practice, Coach Dick Harp said he thinks the basketball team is progressing fine.
"The boys have determination," he said. "They are working hard which is a tradition here. We expect them to. As far as organized team play, we haven't started that yet."
Harp put his squad through a 1/4-hour practice session Tuesday. He still is stressing physical condition.
Nebraska At Top Physical Shape
LINCOLN, NEB. —(UP)— The outlook continued bright in the Nebraska Cornhusker football camp today as only one injured player was counted among the "doubtfuls" for Saturday's Big Eight clash with Missouri.
The practice of tagging tuna fish has revealed that they migrate vertically as well as horizontally.
Reserve quarterback Charley Smith, who received a knee injury in Monday's practice session, is feared out for two weeks. Otherwise, Coach Bill Jennings team is at the year's physical peak.
