Wrestling revival
Interest meeting is set
By JERRY KLEIN Assistant Sports Editor
The KU wrestling club will hold an interest meeting at 7:30 tonight in Room 205 of New Robinson Gymnasium.
Purpose of the meeting according to its organizers, Andy Warnock, Uniondale, N.Y., junior and Burditt (Bud) Zachary, Wichita sophomore, is to formalize plans for the wrestling club including officials, travel arrangements and an advisor.
There are now 30 men interested in the club. Last year, the KU wrestling team was withdrawn from intercollegiate competition.
AT THAT TIME, Wade Stinson, athletic director, said, "We have reached a point where we
are going to have to decide whether we are going full speed ahead on our wrestling program or whether we will drop the program as an intercollegiate sport."
The sport tumbled as Gary Duff, wrestling coach, was advised by Stinson to go somewhere where he could get experience. Lack of financial support was termed the main problem at that time.
Accordingly, the physical education department has agreed to finance the new club.
HENRY SHENK, professor of physical education, said the department will support the club as "far as the money will take us." That figure in the physical education department ranges from $1,200 to $1,300.
LAST FRIDAY, George Jackson threw for seven touchdowns and completed five extra point passes while leading the Beta #1 team to a 47-0 victory over Pi Kappa Alpha.
Dean Halderson, Russ Meier and Dave Swift each caught two of Jackson's touchdown passes and Buck Vivian caught one. Extra points were scored by Halderson, Vivian, Swift, Tom Edgar and Bob Floerschwalt. Two of Jackson's passes went for 60 and 70 vards.
Delta Tau Delta defeated Delta Upsilon 6-2, Tau Kappa Epsilon defeated Alpha Tau Omega 21-14, Beta Theta Pi defeated Sigma Chi 13-9 and the Laws defeated McCollum 24-12.
Dan Boulware and Dick Hamill each caught two of Gary Ascanio's touchdown passes as Delta Upsilon defeated Acacia 25-0. Andy Harris passed to Ascanio for Delta Upsilon's only extra point. One of Ascanio's passes to Hamill went for 70 yards.
Joseph R. Pearson forfeited to Templin, Elsworth forfeited to Pharmacy and Stephenson forfeited to Battenfeld.
Monday's intramural football was highlighted by a number of close games.
PHI KAPPA THETA beat Alpha Tau Omega 26-0. Pat Giles threw a touchdown pass to each A! Pinne, Joe Fix, Mike Bader and Ron Theis.
Sigma Phi Epsilon defeated Sigma Alpha Epsilon 15-7. The Sig Ep's scored their points on a safety and three touchdown passes thrown by Alan Stoke—two to Christopher Bishop and one to Glen Ellott. Elliot also scored an extra point on a Stoke pass.
Jack Rowe threw to Stephen Woodard for Sigma Alpha Epsilon's only score. Rowe also passed to Woodard for the extra point.
Intramurals feature some close scores
The department plans to furnish the use of the wrestling room in the gymnasium, including a mat, lockers and game arrangements.
Sigma Nu #1 forfeited to Beta #2.
"I bet I could have fixed Skahan in two weeks," said Forrest "Phog" Allen, former KU football-basketball coach and now practicing osteopath.
"We had anticipated the formation of this wrestling club," Shenk admitted.
One of the club requirements is that there can be no paid coaches. "They have to try and find someone, perhaps someone on the faculty," he said.
HE SAID the department also sponsors clubs in fencing, soccer, cricket and rifley.
"There is entirely too much operating done today. A lot of these leg ailments are just flimsy ligaments . . . I can name a dozen fellows we never operated on. We fixed them up."
"Groups of students come to us for help but they must find their own coach or someone who is willing to help."
Today, there sits on Shenk's desk a letter from Wichita University looking for a wrestling opponent from KU.
Phog could have fixed Skahan leg injury
KU football trainer Dean Nesmith explained Skahan's injury. "He tore the ligament on the inside of the knee."
"I've won more games on the
treating table," he said, "than I have on the athletic fields."
Fenton to play Saturday
Thumb through the KU football brochure printed in black and white prepared by the sports information office and look for the name Bill Fenton.
Nesmith said that the ligaments, on all four sides of the knee, support the leg bones and that this torn ligament removed the support on the inside of the knee.
In the KU outlook for 1966 his name is missing. Try the roster, and, of course, his name appears along with 100 additional players.
DON'T GIVE UP. For on page 28. Fenton appears at the top in capital letters in the individual
KU passing statistics for 1965.
His name will appear once again Saturday in the KU-Nebraska football program. After yesterday's 40-minute practice, KU coach Jack Mitchell said Fenton will replace Bob Douglass at quarterback. Douglass is being shifted to fullback.
Fenton has not played at all this season. He reinjured a sprained arch in practice before the Arizona game.

PIZZA LOVERS,
We will be the first to admit, NO ONE can deliver a pizza as fresh as just from the oven. We think everyone knows this, but, when it comes to delivering any food, the quality of the product depends on: A. Time involved; and B. Type of heat used to keep it hot.
We can make most of our pizza deliveries in 15 to 20 minutes. But our speed is important only for your satisfaction. We can keep pizza at exactly the proper temperature (154 degrees) and at just the right humidity （84%）for hours. This is because we have the only humidity controlled delivery ovens in town.
If you want your pizza fresh from the oven, come on out to the Corral at 1401 West 7th, or if you're too busy, give our deliveries a try tonight.
