The Kansas basketball team will open its 1982-83 season with the annual Crimson-Blue game tonight at Allen Field House.
Tip-off for the contest is 7 p.m.
Tip off for the contest is 7 p.m.
"I've really been pleased so far this year," head coach Ted Owens said. "Every veteran is better and the freshmen all have excellent attitudes and are dedicated workers."
The Blue squad will consist of veterans Jeff Dishman, 6-foot-5 forward; Brian Martin, 6-foot-8 center; Kelly Knight, 6-foot-7 center, and Tad Boyle, 6-foot-4 guard. Newcomers on the Blue team will be Carl Henry, 6-foot-5 guard, and Kerry Boagni, 6-foot-5 forward.
The Crimson squad will consist of three veterans and four newcomers to the Kansas team. The veterans are Mark Summers, 6-foot-7 forward; Mark Ewing, 6-foot-9 center, and Lance Hill, 6-foot-5 guard. The newcomers are Jeff Guiot, 6-foot-1 guard; Kern Kolleg, 6-foot-5 guard; and Calvin Thompson, 6-foot-6 forward, and Greg Gomez, 7-foot-4 forward, all students from Wichita State. This, and the intrasquad game in Hutchinson, will be the only action Drehling will see.
Here is a player-by-player analysis of this year's Jayhawk team.
BLUE TEAM
Carl Henry — Henry, who sat out last season after transferring from Oklahoma City, is one of the best all-around players Kansas has had in a long time. He can shoot, rebound and handle the ball.
In his sophomore year at OCU, Henry averaged 19 points and 11.7 rebounds a game. His mark of 11.7 rebounds put him ninth in the country.
Owens about Henry? "Carl hasn't played in over a year so it may take a few games for him to reach his goal." And he is going to become a fine player though."
Jeff Dishman — Dishman is a co-captain on this year's team and is the only player returning who started every game last season.
Dishman averaged 9.3 points and 5.9 rebounds a game last year after transferring from Hutchinson Junior College. If his pre-season play is any indication, Dishman will be the most improved player on the Kansas squad.
Owens about Dishman: "Jeff is a much improved player this year. He is stronger and his mechanics are much better."
Tad Bley — Boyle is coming off a disappointing freshman year that saw him average just 2.9 points a game, but wins the game behind the squad behind Tony Guy in assists.
Boyle was one of only four players last year who played in all 27 games, and he will once again be starting as point guard.
Owens about Royle: "Tad gained 20 pounds over the summer and it has helped him. He is quicker and stronger than last year."
Kelly Knight — Knight was plagued by an ankle injury last year, but still managed to be third on the team in scoring with a 12.3 average.
Knight's shooting ability and versatility enable Owens to play Knight at Patrol.
Knight is in a serious battle with Brian Martin for the starting center position.
Brian Martin — Martin started three games when Knight went down with an injury last year. He managed to average 3.6 points and 3.2 rebounds a game last year, despite averaging just 15 minutes of playing time a game.
Martin's quickness and defensive ability give him a slight advantage over Knight this season with the Jayhawks looking to run more. But, you can expect him and Knight to be on the same time during some of this season.
Kerry Boaglain — Kansas' most heralded freshman from Serra High School in Gardena, Calif. He was named to eight of the nationally ranked college teams after scoring 24 points and 17 rebounds a game his senior year.
Boagis is the lone freshman on the blue squad which consists of the top 30 players.
Owens about Boagint: "He'll be an outstanding player, but it will take some time. It it's untainted to expect a team that makes a dramatic effect on a team."
CRIMSON TEAM
Mark Summers — Summers, who along with Dishman are the Jayhawk co-captains, is coming off arthroscopic knee surgery and is not yet at 100
Summers averaged 1.5 points and 1.2 rebounds a game last year and if he can come back from his surgery, he will play against heyaws depth underneath the boards.
He averaged 1 point a game in limited action last year, after he transferred from Cloud County Community College, where he averaged 17 points and 10 rebounds a game his sohomore year.
Mark Ewing - Ewing is the tallest member of the Kansas team and his shooting touch and height could help the Jawhaws around the basket.
Lance Hill — Hill, like Summers, is recovering from knee surgery and is improving as the practice season continues.
Hill averaged 3.6 points a game last
year with a season-high 15 points against Oklahoma State that led the team to win 68-62.
Hill, who started in five contests last week, has scored 14 Kansas depth at both point guard and linebacker.
Guiot, who is a fine ball hander and shooter, will back up Boyle at the point
Jeff Guilf — Guiot was one of the top two Kansas recruits after a senior season that saw him average 24.4 points and 9 assists a game at Chanute High.
Kellogg had some problems early, adjusting to college basketball, but he is expected to fight for a starting berth sometime this season.
Ron Kellogg — Kellogg was named to four All-America teams following an exceptional career at Northwest High in Omaha, Neb. He averaged 21.7 points and 10.9 rebounds a game his senior year.
Calvin Thompson — Thompson, along with Guiot, was one of the top two prep players in Kansas last year and he so named to three All-American teams.
He averaged 21 points and 12 rebounds his senior year at Wyandotte High in Kansas City, Kan. He is one of the best shooters on the Kansas squad and should help the Jayhawks in that area.
Greg Dreiling — Dreiling transferred to Kansas after playing at Wichita State for one year. If Dreiling was eligible, he would have Kansas have tremendous depth and would enable Owens to move Knight and Martin to forward positions.
Dreiling will play in the two intra-squad matches and will practice with the team, but he will not be able to play against the competition for the Jayhawks this season.

Garvey claims rejection of contract unanimous
By United Press International
NEW YORK—Ed Garvey, executive director of the NFL Players Association, said yesterday that all 29 teams rejected management's proposal to end the 50-day football strike, despite announced acceptances from the New Orleans Saints, Houston Oilers and Los Angeles Rams.
The union chief said that those three clubs were not fully informed of the proposal and that their many questions to the offer was like a vote of disapproval.
"When you get to the bottom of it, they posed questions that required good hard collective bargaining," Garvey said. "Many of the teams have made lists that move very close to our proposal. In what do you want to convince what you do? List what your want and what you can change and go from there."
Details of the management's proposal were not released.
IN ANOTHER development, the NFL Management Council yesterday filed unfit labor practice charges against a company that incidents that union representatives
allegedly threatened an outspoken player
The charge stated that union President Gene Upshaw and Elvin Bethea of the Houston Oilers were among those who "threatened, restrained and coerced" Russell Erxleben, the New Orleans player representative, Erxleben repeatedly has criticized the union's conduct. The NFLAHA has denied the threats to Erxleben or anyone else.
The Rams reportedly voted 15-11 to accept the owners' proposal. The Oliers also reportedly accepted the proposal, although no vote count was given for Houston. The two teams join the Saints, who voted 45-1 with one abstention, as the only clubs to have voted for the proposal.
The Houston and New Orleans players said that some details still needed to be negotiated. The Los Angeles Times reported that at least 20 Rams were not present during the vote, but their ballots must still be counted.
THE PLAYERS are not going to "buy the management's proposal," Gavin says.
Jim Miller, spokesman for the owners, said no new negotiating sessions were imminent.
