Barbell accident threatens youngest Zook's football career
By YAEL ABOUHALKAH

Dale Zook lay sprawled unconscious across the barn floor, a barbell weight of 175 pounds resting on his chest, cut off his breath.
Injuries plague Hawk gridmen
Injuries are again plaguing the University of Kansas football team as it finishes general practice sessions and prepares to play in the season opener with Washington State.
His dreams could have been smashed that Thursday night had it not be for Dean.
Terry Beeen, sophomore middle guard, is out because of bruised ribs sustained in Saturday's scrimmage. Coach Don Fambrough said that Beeson's condition was good and that he should return to practice soon.
It was Aug. 8, 1974. Dale, the youngest Zook, had been lifting weights on the Zook farm near Laredo to get in shape for his upcoming football season. The University of Kansas football team, at KU, Dale was reading himself to follow in his older brothers' Jayhawk footsteps—John, now with the Atlanta Failons, and Dean, an interior and all-Big 8 defense end last year.
Bronchitis has sent sophomore running back Laverne Smith to the sidelines indefinitely. Smith was able to practice for only half of yesterday's session.
Bob Swift, junior kicker, broke his arm
last week and will be out for some time.
The only bright spot in the injury picture is Steve Towle, senior linebacker. Towle, who has a slightly hyper-extended knee, was working harder in yesterday's practice, according to Fambrough, and should return to full speed soon.
Fambrough said he hoped the team and fans wouldn't get the wrong impression from Saturday's scrimmage, which the Blue team won. 64-7.
"A lot of points were scored," he said, and "they were scored against freshmen. I don't think our team has gotten the wrong impression. They knew that they were playing against inexperienced people and the regular games wouldn't be like that."
who tells the story even now with a tight, concerned look on his face.
The two Zooks, Dean said, had been out running earlier that night. Dale left after the brothers had finished running. After it grew dark, Mrs. Zooks became concerned and sent Dean to look for his younger brother, Dean at first wasn't too worried.
"I just figured he'd gone out running somewhere else." said Dean.
The first hint that something was wrong came when Dean entered the barn and caught Zookeis in a fight. Zoinks' weights and barbells. One of the barbells and some of the weights were missing, which prompted Dean to speculate he had gone to a friend's house to lift weights.
"I went over to the side of the Dean," said, "and looked down. There's about a nine-foot drop there to the floor. But it was clear I couldn't see anything and I went downstairs."
What he saw, Dean said, "shocked me to the core. I was in a lack of oxygen, had apparently lost his balance and fallen nine feet to the concrete floor, the heavy barbell landing on top of
"I was walking out and I happened to look over my shoulder and saw what I thought was a barbell lying there. Well, I went to see him and found there, so I went over to investigate."
QUICKLY, DEAN removed the weights and checked his brother's heart beat. If there was one, it was too faint to hear, but his brother's breathing was nonexistent.
"He was just cold and clammy," Dean said. "I gave him mouth-to-mouth resuscitation. After about 10 minutes he got to breathing O.K., but he was still unconscious. I had to hold his tongue to keep him from swallowing it."
Meanwhile, Mrs. Zook had called an ambulance, which took almost 40 minutes to arrive.
"I was about ready to do anything to help him," Dean said. "It's just like a truck hitting you when you think your brother's dead—it's awful scary.
"I don't know how close it was, but he was pretty close to dying." Dean said.
The ambulance took Dale to Larned, where he was then sent to a neurosurgeon in Wichita. A split skull was the diagnosis there, a condition less serious than a normal skull. A split skull has been torn apart where the skull grows together during infancy.
DALE'S FUTURE in football is cloudy. He has elected to sit out school entirely this semester, instead relaxing in Larned. Dale, who occasionally has dizzy spells and feels weak
"It'll be up to the doctors." Dean said of Dale's future gridron playing time. "I know he'd hate to give football up, but it's a lot better than screwing his life up."
Dale owes his life in part to a first aid course Dean took in high school. The mouth-to-mouth resuscitation Dean gave his students was the last he'd had to use the course's instruction.
"I didn't really know much of what I was asking," Dean said. "I knew I shouldn't move." Moved.

Dean said there were a "million things running through my mind when I was helping Dale. You always have this kind of a natural protective feeling towards your younger brother. I was just kneeling there, wishing I could trade places with him."
KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP)--Robie Jack Jucklek, making his third major league pitched the Chicago White Sox to a 2-1 victory in City Royals with late help last week.

Juckek, 1-0, a former Miami (Ohio) University star, struck out six and walked two before leaving during a Kansas City rally in the eighth. Terry Forster came on and gave up a run-scorning single to Cookie Rojas.
Dean said Dale only remembered the fall from the hayloft, not the hit. Dale later told his brother that sheer exhaustion probably caused him to lose his balance and topple. After that experience, with only a split skull and no broken bones or permanent injuries, Dean said he considered his brother pretty lucky.

Whether you're still in medical school with the triples of to three years of graduate medical education or a two-year medical school as a physician, it's our opinion that the Air Force can offer both professions and personal satisfaction. We believe that is one of the best ways.
Becoming a physician is a tremendous satisfaction. Let us give you the job satisfaction that should go with it.
An overstatement? Not if you consider the specifics.
Take the problem of graduate medical education out of the box and consider considerably easier with comfortable skills and life experience.
Creature comforts aside, the Air Force offers training in medical advantage to wearing training in your uniform. You could be assigned to physicians in all of the medical specialties. You'll function in an environment which is intellectually stimulating.
Not all physicians pursue post residency fellowships. But if you are interested, the Air Force can help you apply.
The physician already in practice can look forward to other things. If you want to training in the practice of the medicine of the future, you'll find it helpful to be familiar with medical group medicine and preventive medicine, and the growing specialization of "family physician." Whatever your interest, there are few specialities which are not essential to your practice.
The physician starting his practice in civilian life has to take into account the cost of setting up an office (e.g., for a law firm) and the costs associated.
the Air Force does not. He finds his office established for him. Supplies and equipment readily available, he can provide the care and treatment patients. For example, he can consult with Air Force specialists. He also has referral to other Air Force specialists. He is able to make the least, are the satisfactions that come with having the opportunities for regular follow ups, and a missed opportunity for training.
Whether you are already a physician, or so to become one, you might find it extremely interesting to find out what the Air Force has to offer. We think it's great that the Air Force has this information, we'd be happy to send you detailed information.
