Gwinn Henry's new style of at
tack, the "spinner wing," is draw
ing fans to the practice field AS
some 80 University of Kansas
football players go thru spring
practice.
The Jayhawk gridders are tak
ing hold rapidly of the "spinner
wing," which finds the quarter
back, directly behind the center,
handling the ball on every play.
Moat are run from a double wing
formation.
Fourteen lettermen.

the varsity baseball squad from
getting in hard practice Tuesday.
