to a nightmare.
The h a r d-running Univer
sity of Washington fullback
will sit out Saturday's clash
with Notre Dame the team
he had wanted to score against
more than any other.
Dr. John Geehan, team physi
cian, said today there s no way
of telling how long it will take
McElhenny to recover from a
foot sprain received in the Min
nesota game. The foot is now in
a cast.
"We hope he'll be back in
time for OSC," Geehan said,
"but It's a peculiar sort of
sprain. It may take longer to
hrai than we think."
Shorn of his No. 1 fullback,
Coach Howie Odell quickly
shifted Left Halfback Roland
Kirkby into the middle slot as
insurance. He isn't expected to
see too much action from that
spot, however, unless something
happens to Hank Tiedemann
and Kenny Dunn. Tiedemann is
nursing an assortment of minor
ailments now but is expected to
be on hand Saturday.
For the first time since the
