End of spring practice
Football scrimmage tomorrow
By CHIP ROUSE
Spring football drills will end tomorrow with the annual intrasquad game at Memorial Stadium beginning at 1:30 p.m.
The game will match the top two offensive units against the best two defensive teams. The contest will be divided into three twenty-minute games with a brief five-minute rest period between games.
THE GAME WILL be played under a special set of scoring rules devised to give the defense an opportunity to score, even though the offensive unit will retain possession of the ball for the duration of the contest.
The offense will put the ball in play at its own 30-yard line. Each time it fails to make a first down, or loses the ball by a fumble or pass interception, the pigskin will be brought back to the 30-yard stripe and the offense will start over.
For each 15 yards the offense advances the ball it receives one point. If the defense prevents the offensive unit from making a first down on the initial series from the 30, it receives two points. If the defensive team stops the offensive squad short of a first down on a subsequent series, it receives one point.
THE DEFENSE will receive five points for intercepting a pass or recovering a fumble.
The offense receives the regular
six points plus its points for advancing the ball. For example, if the offense drives all the way from its own 30-yard line to score, it would receive ten points—six for the touchdown and four for the vardage.
According to Head Coach Pepper Rodgers, there will be no kickoffs or extra point attempts.
THE OFFENSIVE pattern for the game will be what Rodgers likes to call a sprint offense. In this type of offense, quarterback Bob Douglass is the key man. He has the option of either throwing or running with the ball.
From the adjustments which have been made in the offensive backfield this spring, it looks as if the Jayhawks will be doing quite a bit of passing tomorrow and again next fall.
Don Shanklin, the second leading ground gainer in the Big Eight Conference last season as a sophomore, has been moved to flanker back, and John Jackson, another sophomore, has been moved from a running back position to split end. Rodgers believes this move will give the KU gridders more speed and agility in the vital pass receiving department. However, Shanklin will miss tomorrow's contest due to a twisted ankle suffered this week in practice.
other innovation by Rodgers is the "hawk" or roverback who serves as a monster man on the defensive team. Rick Abernathy is currently the No. 1 hawk, and has the duty of patrolling the area usually covered by the line-backers.
PROBABLY THE BIGGEST change on the defensive unit this spring is the move of Bruce Peterson from end to tackle. An-
In addition to Shanklin, three other KU regulars will not suit up for the contest. Starting tight
end John Mosier will miss the game because of a kidney infection. Offensive tackle Charley Elmer and defensive linebacker Dick Fortier will also see sideline duty.
"We are not blessed with overwhelming depth." Rodgers said, "but we have a lot of boys who are willing to work and are responding to our coaching."
KU-OU dual may tell Big 8 story
The dashes shape up to be a good indicator of next week's Big Eight track and field championships as KU is hosted by Oklahoma's sprinter-laden track corps tomorrow.
Leading the 20 Hawks will be junior speedster Ben Olison, who has a 9.5 in the 100 and 21.2 in the 220, and sophomore George Byers, who claims a 9.5 in the century and a 13.8 in the high hurdles.
OLISON MISSED meeting OU's twin sprinters, Glen and Wayne Long at the KU and Drake relays due to his father's death. But Ben said he is ready to go after them following his two-week layoff from track.
Olison will have to pick off one of them at least and if Byers can equal the feat, KU should be in good shape for the conference meet. Olison will also face a tough task in anchoring the 440 and mile relays as the speedy Sooners lead the conference in both and KU's number three runner, Steve Ashurst, is nursing a pulled thigh muscle.
Other Oklahomaans will be pushing the Jayhawks in the jumps as captain Gard Ard (24-111½) faces the conference's longest jumper, Mike Gregory, and high jumpers Ken Gaines and John Turck will meet seven-foot jumpers Jim Johnson and Ron Tull.

Tennis team in triple dual at K-State
Bill Terry will be the Jayhawks' letterman with championship tournament experience. He was runner-up in No. 5 singles as a sophomore.
