10 Wednesday, October 1, 1986 / University Daily Kansan Sports Briefs Injured Jayhawk players return to football practice Warren Shields, linebacker, and Guy Gamble, defensive tackle, yesterday returned to practice at Memorial Stadium, head football coach Bob Valente said. The two players, who had been sidelined with injuries, practiced at full speed but were limited in contact drills, he said. Valesiente said the offense worked on new phases of the game plan, especially with distance situations. The defense focused on defending option plays because those players were predominant in the Southern Illinois game plan, be said. The choice of the kick-off returner has not been made yet and will not be decided until just before Saturday's game. Milt Garner, Scott Schriner and Arnold Snell are the prime candidates. "I'm hoping we won't have that many opportunities to return kick-offs," Valesente said. Holieway to miss next game NORMAN, Okla. — Quarterback Jamelle Holley has a bruised shoulder and will not play Saturday in Oklahoma's Big Eight Conference oowerer against Kansas State. And that's just about all Coach Barry Switzer had to say yesterday about the approach contest with the Wildcats. The rest of his weekly media luncheon was devoted to the University of Miami. "Jamiele is definitely not going to play Saturday," Switzer said. "He didn't dislocate his shoulder, it is just bruised, but he can hardly lift his right arm." "We are not holding out but because we are playing Kansas State. He wouldn't play if we were to meet Texas this week." Switzer also said that he did not have a final evaluation on noseguard Curtice Williams' knee injury, but early reports from the Sooner trainers were that Williams would be out for the year. Looking back to Oklahoma's 28-26 loss at Miami, Switzer said the Hurricane squad was one of the best his Sooner team had ever faced NAIA selects new director KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The direction of the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics will be determined by the needs of its student-athletes, the group's new leader said. Jefferson D. Farris Jr., the president of the University of Central Arkansas, has been hired as NAIA executive director, it was announced yesterday. yesterday. Farris, 59, replaces Harry Fritz, who resigned as executive director April 1 to become senior consultant to the NAIA Council of Presidents. Farris, who agreed to a three-year contract, officially will take his new position Dec. 1. The NAIA is an association of about 500 schools and roughly can be called a small college version of the NCAA. Farris said the fact that the NAIA did not rely on television as the source of its operating income could allow the group to be more responsive to the needs of the student-athletes. The NCAA, for example, derives 75 percent of its budget from rights fees paid to televised its Division I basketball tournament. "I think we may have different types of problems (than the NCAA)." Farris said. "Our concern in the NAIA is going to focus entirely on the athlete as a student. "If you're in an association that is supported financially by television revenue, gate receipts or that sort of thing, whether or not all of your decisions can focus on what is best for the student athlete. I don't know." "I know what our focus will be, and I know where our attention will be." Hancock put on injured list KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Wide receiver Anthony Hancock was placed on injured reserve yesterday by the Kansas City Chiefs after doctors performed arthroscopic surgery on Hancock's right knee to repair ligaments. Hancock caught four passes for 63 yards, this season, three of them during the first half at Buffalo on Sunday. Hancock, injured in Sunday's game with Buffalo, will be out at least four weeks and probably longer, said Gary Heise, spokesman for the National Football League club. Emile Harry, a free agent wide receiver, took Hancock's place on the roster. Harry was among the last players cut when the Chiefs got down to the regular season limit. Kupchak retires from play INGLEWOOD, Calif. — Mitch Kupchak, the veteran center-forward for the Los Angeles Lakers who battled back from a career-threatening knee injury five years ago, retired yesterday to become an assistant general manager with the Lakers. Last March, the 32-year-old Kupchak reinjured the left knee that had caused him to miss the entire 182-83 season. The previous season, he injured the knee so severely that the joint had to be surgically reconstructed. However, he fought back and, last season, averaged 6 points and 3.5 rebounds in 55 games. The 6-foot-10 Kupchak is one of only 16 players to win a league title as a player on two clubs. He was a member of the 1977/78 champion Bullets and the 1984/85 Champion Lakers.

Walker shows versatility in first start for Cowboys The Associated Press ST LOUIIS — Herschel Walker has received passing grades for his first National Football League start — from his own team and from his opponents alike.

"Whatever I am called upon to do, I'll do." "He has a lot different style than, Tony Dorsett, who bursts right up the middle," Dallas quarterback Danny White said. "He is able to break a lot of tackles. He's going to be one of the greats." Walker already established his outstanding ability by winning the Heisman Trophy at Georgia in 1983 and playing two seasons with the New Jersey Generals of the United States Football League.
