Rugby club opens year Saturday
KU Rugby Club kicks off its season against Palmer College at Davenport, Iowa, Saturday.
The team is hoping to better last year's record of 13 wins and four losses to prove once again they are one of the top teams in the country.
MOST OF LAST year's top fifteen players have returned. They will be playing under the guidance of the club's president, Fat Repp, Shawnee Mission senior.
According to Repp, the club runs two teams, enabling more players to see action.
Following the fall matches, the team plans to travel to the West Coast next semester to play against the University of Southern California and the University of California at Berkeley.
LAST SEASON the KU rugby team toured the East Coast playing some of the top teams there.
Those interested in joining the club, both men and women, should visit the Bierstube Monday thru Friday and contact Repp.
Practices are being held behind Oliver Hall every afternoon from 4:15 to 6 p.m.

"When the season starts, 100 per cent of my duties are preventative," he says, "but before the season is over. 60 per cent of my work will be preventing injuries and the other 40 per cent will be taking care of the injuries we have."
Dean Nesmith, athletic trainer at KU for many years, says he has over 160 miles of tape on hand to use for the football season this year.

In recent years the Nebraska football team has been said to possess traits that would strike fear into the minds of opponents everywhere, but a recent incident at Lincoln proves that the Cornhuskers aren't all that mean.
One day last week practice drills were stopped for a few minutes to offer protection for a newly-born brood of rabbits on the Husker practice field. The baby bunnies were given a little privacy when coach Bob Devaney moved his players to another spot and ringed the nest with jerseys. Devaney jokingly said that he would put one of the injured players in charge of the rabbits. That's quite a way to keep a scholarship.

Texas Tech coach, J. T. King had this to say about Don Shanklin, Jayhawk halfback who gained 134 yards against the Red Raiders:
"He's going to be a great one. Every time he got his hands on the ball, he scared me to death."

Junior David Bouda, who came off the bench midway in the second quarter and led KU to four touchdowns against Arizona, has been promoted to starting quarterback, Coach Jack Mitchell said yesterday after sending his squad through a light 90-minute workout.
After viewing the Arizona game films Sunday, Mitchell had nothing but praise for his defensive team. "They did a tremendous job, the secondary in particular. The line rush was good. Just no mistakes."
Big Eight Standings CONFERENCE
On the other hand, Mitchell thought the offense was "real erratic."
It was also announced two-year letterman Bill Perry, 5-11, 215-pound Lawrence senior, suffered a hip injury against Arizona. If the offensive left guard is unable to play against Minnesota, Larry White will start.
