Coach J. W. Sikes voices dissatisfaction with Kansas University football team as of mid January 1960. He notes the squad’s progress is slower than hoped and signals continued work to improve offense and defense before the season.
KU Reds erased a 14 12 deficit with two fourth quarter touchdowns to defeat the Blues 25 14 in a Saturday scrimmage at Memorial Stadium. Sophomore Fox Cashell starred for the Blues, while KU coach Jules Sikes praised defense but faulted blocking as both squads prepared for upcoming TCU game.
A long list of college football scores is reported, including Kansas State 55 over Baker 0, Gustavus Adolphus 28 over Emporia State 7, Southwestern 24 over Texas Southwestern 1, West Texas 52 over Arizona State 12, and many others such as Kentucky 5 and Olaf 14, plus several games with unclear or garbled team names. The compilation mixes readable results with fragmented OCR text and partial team names.
Word from Boulder declares the Buffalos will field a better, faster, more versatile football squad than last year. Several new men shine in practice, notably Roger Williams a 220 pound sophomore, a top runner, passer and leader. Coach J W Sikes faces a promising season with improved facilities and morale.
