8 Thursday, October 2, 1975 University Dally Kansan Morgan's wait to end Saturday Associate Sports Editor By ALLEN QUAKENBUSH John Morgan has been waiting for Saturday's football game with the University of Wisconsin for a long time. So long, in fact, that Morgan, the UW head coach, began thinking about it even before he decided to come to school here. Staff Photo by DAVID CRENSHAW John Morgan (65) congratulates Nolan Cromwell Morgan, native of Wauwatosa, Wis., first came to KU seven years ago to watch his brother, Dave, play. Dave was a defensive back for the Jayhawks from 1966-68, and was a starter on the team that went to the Orange Bowl. "I SAW A SCHEDULE in the program," Morgan said, and "I saw that I would be a senior when Kansas played Wisconsin at Madison. "Right then, even before I knew I was going to come to Kansas, I thought how great it would be to go back to Madison for that name." Morgan's hometown of Wauwatosa is only 78 miles from Madison, and he has been a resident of Wauwatosa for more than a decade. "There are 12 members of my family who are going to go," Morgan said, "and a lot of my neighbors wanted to see me play too. "A lot of my friends from high school are going to college there. There should be places." But that's nothing new to Morgan. He said his mother and father had been at every KU game this year, and that his father rarely missed a home game. "MY WHOLE FAMILY went to Kentucky," Morgan said. "My mother is a tennis coach and she sometimes has tournaments on Saturday. But she comes to every game she can." At Wauwatota East High School, Morgan was an All-State selection at both center and noseguard. As might be ex-ample, he graduated of the first schools to recruit him. "They were after me pretty hard," Morgan said. "I wasn't really impressed with the school at the first. But as time went on, I liked it more. It was closer to home." "I really liked John Jardine (the Wisconsin coach). He's a good coach. But he talked to me and told me that I shouldn't go there just because of him. He I said I should like the facilities because he couldn't guarantee that he and the other could. As a senior, Morgan is the force that holds the young offensive line together. Because of his experience, he is called on to provide leadership. Morgan said he provided most of that leadership during games. "I knew it was my job to do it," Morgan said, "but I didn't have any self-motivation. This spring. I hadn't had the money for it, and I talked; other times you leave by doing." "You have to them excited," he said of the younger players. "Sometimes, they are so worried about who they have to work at that they don't come off the ball very well. "Against Oregon State, everybody was getting excited. We were really coming off THAT SHOWED IN the statistics. KU won 12-6, and the total of the first two games combined. The total of the first two games combined. "We needed a game like that," Morgan said. "I wasn't keen coming off the ball that well." Morgan will have a problem this week. He said Wisconsin used two nooseguards in its first three games. One is strong, but not as strong as the other; the other is as strong but is quicker. "I don't know who I'd rather play against," Morgan said. "I guess it really doesn't make that much difference. If I'm not, I will play well. If I'm not, i won't." Staff Photo by DON PIERCE J. K. Walters (left) and Laura Cook work out with coach Gary Pepin By RACHEL CASE Speech Writer Women harriers win first trophy Cross country running isn't just a race against time. Time isn't as important in cross country as it is in track, he said, because every course is different. The girls run on a two-mile course. The women's cross country team is more concerned with getting in shape and beating women from other schools, Gary Pepin, cross country coach, said yesterday. Mets are won by adding the placings of the top five finishers. Last Sunday, the KU women won a meet at Central Missouri on September 14th, eighth, 11th and 14th, for a total of 44 points. THE WIN AT CENTRAL Missouri State provided the triples trophy won by either the women's cross country team or the women's track team. Peein said. this is the second year of competition for the cross country team, Pepin said. Last year, there were few women participating in cross country and there were only a couple of them. The team didn't even participate in the Big Eight Conference Meet, he said. Team members are Heidi Wallace, Nancy Bissell, Mathew Rowden, Sherree Welch, Bissell, Ocilla Octa Laura Cook, J.K. KWalkers and Co. The girls hope to attend the national championship meet Nov. 15 at Ames, Iowa, but Pepin said there were no individuals who could compete nationally this year's "SOME OF THE GIRLS haven't run at all," he said. "We can't go as tough as we should. The girls get sore and tire quite rapidly." The practice schedule is rigorous and there are no weekends off, he said. The team practices five days a week as a team, two days a week as individuals. Of the five days they practice together, the women go to work every week running on country roads, Pelin said. Pepin said the girls lifted weights three times a week and ran repeat distance drills. In a repeat distance drill, the women run four times or twice plus several races up to a mile-and-a-half. "The remaining days they run on campus, in town or around the track," he said. They run five to eight miles every day, but "we couldn't be able to run that distance non-stop." PEPIN SAID HE HOPED to build a Five Big Eight schools have women's Bishop's College, Nebraska, Akron, and Colorado. program that could compete on the national level, although the quality of the program depended on the amount of financial support. The girls are on scholarship, he said. Offensive guard Morris Pippin, who has been out for most of the season, back injury, has replaced Roger Hammond on the first unit. Despite a 20-0 win over Oregon State last Saturday, Bud Moore decided some changes were in order this week. Four players promoted Offensive tackle Dave Scott is now alternating with Blake Thompson and Lindsey Mason the first team. And Dennis Balagna replaced James Emerson as the starting noseguard.

Starting wide receiver Rionda suffers a slight shoulder injury. He hit for a pass in a drill. He is listed as very doubtful for Saturday's game at Wisconsin. MURPHY'S 33 West Beltline Hy.

Waddell Smith, who missed last Saturday's contest because of a pinched nerve in his neck, is expected to replace McAuliffe. Jim Fender or Walt Little will serve as Smith's back-up.
