Spring football practice has begun or will this week on many Big Eight cam puses and, according to To peka Daily Capital sports editor Bob Hurt, Nebraska is the only conference team which doesn't figure to im prove over last season.

Kansas State returns 10 offensive starters and eight on defense to lead the league in at least one de partment for the first time in quite a spell. Isn't Satisfied New Kansas State coach Vince Gibson isn't satis fied with that distinction, however, and he's gone to some trouble to see that the Wildcats' bite is as big as their roar. Despite Baseball Team a If practice makes per- fect, competition should make even more and if this philosophy is true it would bring hope to Coach Tony Sharpe and his Husker baseball team. The squad had only one "solid" outdoor practice be fore it was thrown against tough Texas competition in a swift six-game vacation tour. Only One The young Cornhuskers garnered only one victory down south, a 16-2 drubbing of Houston University (Houston retaliated defeat ing Nebraska twice), but Coach Sharpe remains very optimistic. "I feel fairly good about this team, even though we won only one game last week," said the coach, now in his 21st year as Husker mentor. "I think we learned most of our team's individual strengths and weaknesses and how we can adjust to them.

Saturday, April 8 UNION BALLROOM Sponsored FOOLISHNESS o A o Robin Gibson has acquired the services of Kansas City Chiefs' quarterback L e n Dawson during spring drills. Dawson will work entirely with the K-State quarter backs, concentrating on the techniques involved in a passer's drop-back style and attack. Pro-Type Attack Gibson plans to use a pro type attack featuring the drop-back quarterback with a split end and flanders this year. Gibson is bringing more than Len Dawson to the Manhattan campus in his ef fort to i n s t i 1 1 a winning spirit into the Wildcats. Upon his arrival he had 1-5 Record On years when our record showed up better." Home Opener Sharpe must now take ad vantage of his newly dis covered strengths and try to conquer the weaknesses as he prepares the team for its home opener against Kansas State. The Huskers will tangle with the Wildcats, an often mentioned contender for the Big Eight crown, in a Fri day doubleheader, starting at 1:30 p.m. Nebraska, a predicted six or seventh place finisher due to per sonnel losses, is hoping for a surprising and successful conference start. Bob Churchich Bob Churchich will be the Husker hurler in Fri day's first game. A second team all-America last year, Churchich was charged with two mound defeats in Texas but Sharpe said the Omaha senior displayed some good form and was "impressive." Lefthanded Keith Winter, transfer from Norfolk JC, will start the tossing in the second game Friday.
