Saturday is also band day in Lawrence and a crowd of over 20,000 is expected to watch pre-game and half-time activities which will feature 52 bands from Kansas and Missouri.
The highly regarded Beavers will, however, be outweighed about 13 pounds per man in the line by the Jayhawkers. The Beaver backfield is only a few pounds heavier than Kansas' backs.
The nation's tenth ranked college football power, Oregon State, arrives in Memorial Stadium Saturday as the Jayhawkers open the 1957 home season.
Oregon had its most successful opening game since 1946 last Saturday when the Beavers defeated their No.1 jinx, Southern California, 20-0. It was the worst the Beavers had defeated their opponents to the south since a 38-6 Oregon State victory in the 1914 inaugural.
Better Acquainted With T
Thursday, Sept. 26. 1957 University Daily Kansan
Kansas, fresh from a 13-13 tie with Texas Christian, is expected to run into trouble defensively. The Javahakers, like most teams, are much better acquainted with running a defense against the T formation. Oregon State, like Colorado and Iowa State in the Big Eight, runs its offense off the single wing—a trend becoming more and more popular among colleges, most of whom had forsaken the single wing for the T in the early thirties.
Oregon State, the defending Pacific Coast champions and 19-35 loser to Iowa in last year's Rose Bowl, returns five regulars and 17 lettermen from that squad.
Even before the season started Coach Tom Prothro stated that his team "would be 30 per cent better."
The Beavers were ranked 10th in the first UP and INS polls. It will be the first football meeting
in history between Kansas and Oregon State. The Beavers are the first of three successive bowl finalists the Jayhawkers meet and the first of three single wing attacks KU faces on successive Saturdays.
Kansas now stands 3-3 against West Coast competition, having defeated Los Angeles Loyola in 1951, Santa Clara in 1952 and Washington State in 1955. The Jayhawkers lost to UCLA in 1953, '54 and '56.
Gibson Won't Play
Only Kansas starter against TCU who will not make an appearance Saturday is veteran tackle Jim Gibson who is out with a lame shoulder, Gibbon will miss one game and probably two.
Ron Claiborne, 237-pound junior,
has moved into Gibson's spot with
Los Angeles May Waver
LOS ANGELES—(UP)—The Los Angeles city council, which last week with a hauzza by a vote of 11-4 adopted a proposal to offer the Brooklyn Dodgers a home here, today was reported wavering on final adoption of the invitation.
Sources close to the council said that unless the councilmen are engulfed in a flood of enthusiasm for major league baseball it may not swing the necessary 10 votes to adopt an ordinance giving Brooklyn President Walter O'Malley a 300-acre tract in Chavez Ravine as a site for a 10 million dollar stadium to house the Dodgers.
Spearheading the proposition to the proposal as it now stands was councilman John C. Holland. He gained strong support for his motion that before the city finally agrees to give O'Malley the site he wants, the city should get an appraisal of the land's value and also one of Wrigely Field, the baseball park of the Dodger-owned Los Angeles club which the city would receive in exchange.
252-pound senior Jim Hull behind him in the No. 2 position.
Kansas could only rush 82 yards from scrimmage against TCU; 78 of those yards came in the second half. The Texans rushed 207 yards in the first half, mostly off tackle before Kansas could plug the gap.
