By Bill Koester Today marks the formal beginning ‘of the Summer Session recreation program, with a meeting for softball players scheduled for this afternoon in Robinson gymnasium, the begin- ning of games, concerts, and other forms of diversion taking place to- night. Dr. F. C. Allen, director of |the program which is greatly en- larged over last year’s, expects greater crowds of both participants and spectators to join in beating off the monotony of classes and the summer heat. The Big Six National League, a softball circuit for Summer Session athletes, will get under way after this afternoon’s meeting. Six teams, as many as were formed last year, will make up the league. The team winning the championship will probably play an all-star aggrega- tion at the season’s end. Last year the winning Wildcat team defeated |the all-stars 9-8 in a fast, exciting game. : Chuck Taylor’s failure to pick a (Continued on page four) , = Sports Topics--- v~ ly~¢ f 0 (Continued from page two) single Jayhawker on his “All-Amer- ica” basketball teams was indeed an oversight which has soured many Mid-Westerners on Mr. Taylor. It is excusable only because we realize Dean Nesmith, the Jayhawkers’ muscle doctor, are all products of this university, and all are bi trainers. that Mr. Taylor isn’t the authority | that the press associations are. Self- endorsing sporting. v-setaonishrdlu endorsed sporting equipment” and “Black Magic” basketball methods made to order for the natural-born flash of an athlete are his claims to fame. He picked only one of Indi- ana’s national champion Hoosiers on his team, which further indicates that he apparently gets his informa- tion from Life and other picture- publicity magazines. Of Mr. Tay- lor’s selections, Dr. F. C. “Phog” Allen—who doesn’t buy the former’s sporting goods—says, “With about 18,000,000 persons playing basketball in the world it must be difficult for Chuck to pick an all-America and still find time to sell his sports equipment.” But the inside story be- hind Mr.’ Taylor’s omission of Kan- sas men on his teams is so good it’s tragic that it can’t be printed at this time—because it-makes Mr. Taylor look so very, very small. “Milton Kelley, head trainer at the University of Texas, and former Jayhawker assistant, dropped in re- cently for a short visit. Which brings.to mind that the University is getting a reputation for turning out excellent trainers: Roland Logan, of ‘Army; Jimmy Cox, Harvard ace; Elwyn Dees, now at Nebraska; and g-time Wildcats Twist The Tigers’ Tail The Big Six National League soft- ball games went into the third week of competition Monday afternoon with a mighty upset of the powerful Tiger aggregation at the hands of the strong Wildcats. . The Tigers had shown strong pos- siblities of being able to complete the season without a defeat. However, they met their betters in losing to the rejuvenated Wildcats 21 to 10. The outcome of the game was certain from the beginning as the. winners scored in every inning except the first. Coming up in standing each game are the hard fighting Cornhuskers who took the air out of the windy Cyclones to the tune of 26 to 10. They began the first inning scoring _ 5 runs to their opponents 1. The lowly Sooners and Jayhawks i fought each other with the Sooners | pushing the "Hawks into a sub-base- ment level by a score of 15 to 5. The losers allowed their opponents to score 8 runs in the first inning, which proved too great an obstacle to over-_ come. The first half of the summer sched- ule was finished with the games Wednesday. This finds the Tigers and Cyclones tied for first place, the Cyclones in second and the Wildcats, Jayhawkers and sooners tied for last position. There was some indication that the second half on the schedule will show some change in team position in that the Jayhawks, who failed to win a game in their first four starts, were successful in defeating the Wildcats in a heetic game which ended in a 20 to 19 victory for the "Hawks. Incidently the Wildcats were the team who upset the highly tutored Tigers. The Hawks may be down but not out. The Cyclones had little trouble in defeating the Sooners by the top heavy score of 15 to 3. The winners. were able to collect 12 runs in the first three innings while their op- _ ponents failed to score until the last inning. The two leading rivals met this afternoon with the Tigers coming back after defeat to down the Corn- huskers 14 to 7. The winners led all of the way. Line-up of Last Wednesdays Games Jayhawks: . Keeler, Pitts, Hays, Zerger, Zer- ~ger, Butrum, Lawrence, Barlow. Wildcats: Frost, Forker, Powell, Sipes, Blowey, Flaherty, Glattfelter, Tewell, Kuebler.

Softball Season Nears the End Six games in the “last chance” week of play are keeping the Big Six National Softball Leaguers busy as the season draws to a close, with the Sooners meeting the Jayhawks on diamond No. 3, the Huskers and Cyclones tangling on No. 2, and the Wildcats battling the Tigers on No. 1 tomorrow afternoon. The league-leading Tigers played the Jayhawks yesterday, while the _|Sooners met the Huskers and the Wildcats and Cyclnoes squared off to get three of the games out of the | way. Next week will see the appli- cation of the finishing touches to the summes_ session’ season, after which a game between the pennant winners and an all-star team chosen |from the other teams will vie for |more honors. Tentatively scheduled is a game between the winner of that soiree and an all-star aggregation from Lawrence, but no definite arrange- ments have been completed as yet, , Dr. F. C. Allen, director of the sum- mer session recreation program, said today. The game, if plans to hold it materialize by then, will be an- nounced in Friday’s Kansan. FRIDAY, JUNE 21, 1940 SPORTS TOPICS By Bill Koester, c’41 Last night’s recreation picnic, which attracted around 75 hungry Summer Session students for games and food, proved highly successful. It has apparently become an estab- lished tradition on Mt. Oread for ex- hausted bookworms to relax almost as if aboard a luxury liner, what with shuffle-board, loop tennis, swimming, archery, and other sports common on vessels of the high seas. Improve- ments this year in equipment and are making the life of the “the facilities Summer Session student indeed life of Riley”. CS Looking Into the Future: Students who are playing golf at the Lawrence Country Club will get a chance to enter a summer school tournament to be held on the University’s course soon, .... if enouge interest is shown by golfers, they may sign up as fav- oring the tourney at the recreation office. . . . prizes probably will be new golf balls and accessories. .+-- An out-of-town writer for a nationally famous magazine will stop off in the near future to scribble a yarn on “Phog” Allen and Kansas basket- ball teams. ..-- reports are that it should help pahlenty in putting the Jayhawkers on a par with any team in the country. . . . Two long eastern trips are in store for K.U. footballers next fall, games with Villanova and George Washington having been scheduled. .. . it is hoped the Jay- hawkers will make the George Washington crew’s claims they'll win constitute the first lie ever uttered by George Washington. .. . Oh well —————— Bruce Drake, Oklahoma basket- ball coach, has informed Gerold Tucker, Winfield cage ace, that if Tucker would enroll at O.U. next fall, he (Drake) and some friends would procure the boy a job with Phillips Petroleum company after he is grad- uated. Now isn’t that a laugh! Ken- neth “Boots” Adams, president of the Phillips company, Ray Ebling, Fred Pralle, Paul Endacott, former alumni president, and possibly Don Ebling, all of whom have starred on Kan- sas basketball teams, are employed or hold big offices with Phillips.. Can Bruce Drake “fix it up” for Tucker for going to Oklahoma better than “Phog” could if the boy comes here? Having lived up to the name “Sooner”, Mr. Drake, how about laughing that one off? Heard From Our Clairvoyant: Fred Harris, former Jayhawker punting expert, is now coaching at Emporia Teachers and reports the job’s a honey. - - - which reminds this column, speaking of Freddie, of the time he booted one 72 yards in the air against K-State in 1935. . . Jim Raport, physical ed instructor va- cationing in New York, writes that playground recreation has become the universal pastime for the big city’s grown-ups and kids, especially because they are trying to stress ath- letics and clean sportsmanship while others are at war...- Asserted by some to favor interesting boys in g0- ing to Missouri, Tom Van Cleave, Jr., of Kansas City, “hustlingest” alumni for K.U.—make no mistake of that... . and so is Ray Evans (Bob Busby please note.) pee Dr. Allen’s year-old game, Goal- Hi, which was popular with the summer session students last year, received quite a bit of national rec- ognition. The game will be played in Fowler Grove again this sum- mer. The sport is similar to basket- |. ball, but the court is smaller and cir- cular, and there is no backboard to shoot at. The hoop can be hit from all angles, that is, if you can hit it at all. Softhall Leagues Are Organized Seventy-five men, composing six teams, signed up for play as the Big Six National Softball league got off to a flying start last Tuesday. Play for all teams will begin next Mon- day, with games scheduled between the Sooners and Wildcats, the Cy- clones and Tigers, and the Jay- hawkers and Cornhuskers. The schedule for the first round has been drawn up and is printed elsewhere in the Kansan. The sec- ond round will begin immediately upon completion of the first, which ends July 8. Softball players who have not yet signed up were urged by Dr. F. CG Allen, director of physical education, play. Umpires for the league will be Dr. Allen, J. W. Twente, professor of ed- ucation, and E. R. Elbel, associate professor of physical education. Games will be played on the in- tramural fields located south of the campus behind Robinson gymna- sium. There will be no admission charge and a game between league ‘ champions and an all-star team will be offered as an extra al- traction at the season’s end. More Than 300 Attend Picnic More than 300 persons of all ages played and lunched at the annual Summer Session picnic sponsored by the recreation office, held last night in the quadrangle adjacent to Rob- inson gymnasium. The event sig- naled the start of the summer’s rec- reation program, directed by Dr. F. C. Allen, basketball coach. Events began at 5 o’clock in the af- ternoon, with the assemblage en- gaging in loop tennis, shuffleboard, badminton, goal-hi; and children playing on teeter-totters, in sand piles, monkey mazes and swings. The University band, directed by Russell Wiley, offered a varied musical fare, supplemented by community sing- ing, the performance of Haskell In- dians who danced and boxed, and movies shown publicly for the first time of the University’s basketball team in action against Indiana, Southern California, and Rice last winter. At 6 o’clock the picnic took on added attraction when food was mentioned and “players” settled down to satisfying the appetites they had built up. is one of the| to do so immediately if they wish to | the’ SCHEDULE OF FIRST ROUND OF SOFTBALL GAMES Monday, June 24: Sooner vs. Wildcats Cyclones vs. Tigers Jayhawkers vs. Cornhuskers Wednesday, June 25: Sooners vs. Tigers Wildcats vs. Cornhuskers Cyclones vs. Jayhawks Monday, July 1: Sooners vs. Cornhuskers Tigers vs. Jayhawks Wildcats vs. Cyclones Wednesday, July 3: Sooners vs. Jayhawks Cornhuskers vs. Cyclones Tigers vs. Wildcats Monday, July 8: Sooners vs. Cyclones ‘Jayhawks vs. Wildcats Cornhuskers vs. Tigers LT Softball Teams In Round T All soft ball teams got under way Monday afternoon in beginning the second round of the schedule. Prob- ably the’ high light of the afternoon was the rejuvenated play of the Jay- hawks who succeeded in producing a five run rally in the first half of the seventh inning to defeat the Corn- huskers who were co-holders of the first position. Tt is interesting to not the better quality of play being shown by the ‘Hawks in their recent games. They are taking advantages of the breaks and may heckle any nine contending for championship honors. Both teams seemed to be evenly matched throughout the game. First one team and then the other would take the lead. In the first of the sev- enth the Jayhawk bats began to ring and they were able to tally five runs which placed them on top by a 10-5 score at the finish. The highly touted Tigers were able to regain undisputed position of first place in shutting off the hot air from the bats of the windy Cyclones and winning, 8 to 2. Milt Allen pitched an exceptionally good game. The Sooners and Wildcats finished up the afternoon with the ’cats tak- | ing a close 4 to 1 decision. In Wednesday’s games the Jay- hawks bore into the side of the Cy- clones and succeeded in squeezing through with a 13 to 12 win. The loosers went into the last half of the seventh five runs behind and suc- ceeded in collecting four runs before the rally was nipped. This game, in consideration of the outcome of the others, should carry the "Hawks out of the cellar position which they have held from the first of the season. The Wildcats were able to recover from their Monday’s defeat and wal- lop the Cornhuskers, 16 to 4. The winners wasted little time in start- ing. They collected four runs in the first and nine in the third and also added to their total in the second and fifth innings. Bob Allen had to take over pitching duties for the Huskers without a great deal of warm-up. Lawrence hurled for the winners and held his opponents to one run in the gong 0 fourth, two in the fifth and one in the 7th inning. The mighty Tigers and the hard luck Sooners finished up the after- noon of baseball with the victory go- ing to the league-leading Tigers. A total of 19 runs was chalked up for the winners against 10 for the losers. The Sooners played under a terrible handicap with only an eight man team.

From the beginning of the season it was clear that this team was the winner. The individual players in every position demonstrated that they had previous experience at the game. Every man on the team was a strong link in forming this cham- pionship combination. Monday afternoon games finished up the regular schedule for the sea- son, with probably the poorest exhi- bition of contests held this season.. Although there were three games listed for the day, in reality there was only one genuine game played. That was between the Wildcats and the Jayhawkers. For the second time this summer the Hawks were able to defeat the runner ups to the championship. Both teams were able to score just about equally throughout the game, with the cats coming out on the bottom by a close 13 to 11 count. The Sooner-Cyclone contest was | forfeited by the Cyclones who were unable to muster enough players to form an infield. A practice game be- tween the two groups went to the Sooners, 32 to 8. The Tigers won their game by for- feit from the Cornhuskers on the same grounds. There will appear in Tuesday’s is- sue of the Kansan the list of all star players for the honor team. The final standings will appear with the all star selection. Tigers showing . The Most ie The second week of competition found teams in the league remaining ‘about in the same positions as when they started. The powerful Tigers remained at the top while the lowly Jayhawkers sank farther into the cellar as they added another defeat to their column of losses. The prominent game of those played last week was between the Tigers and the Jayhawks. As usual, the Tigers came out on top with a 6 to 1 victory, the winners leading all the way. The Cyclones were successful in blowing the ill winds of defeat into the faces of the Wildcats by a score of 7 to 5. The boys of the windy team should be watched when it comes to selecting a winner in that home stretch. The last game of the day found the Cornhuskers downing the already beaten Sooners by the decisive mar- gin of 8 to 3. TODAY’S GAMES Sooners vs. Cyclones. Jayhawkers vs. Wilidcats. Cornhuskers vs. Tigers. Sprinting into the next to the last week of competition the powerful Tiger nine swamped the faltering Jayhawks by a score of 23 to 5 Wed- nesday afternoon. Throughout the entire season the league leaders have showed their heels to all competition in the Big Six Soft Ball League. Their great power was piauifedcd in Monday’s game when they piled up such a large score against a team that had earlier shown considerable improvement. The winners have al- ways been able to depend upon the sterling play of first baseman Bruce, Longberg at third, and Knipe, Kibler, and Meak in the outfield. Although the Jayhawks tried hard, they failed to show any power against the winners because of their numer- our errors. Frost oak well for the losers. The Cyclones and the Wildcats tangled in the second game of the afternoon with the ’cats adding to their winning streak by a 13 to 6 score. The great lead of the winners came in the second and third innings when they succeeded in collecting 8 runs. Lawrence pitched a steady game and kept the opponents’ hits well scattered. For the hard luck Cyclones, Bosilevac, Sweatman, and Narramore were outstanding. The big surprise of the day was the fine showing the Sooners made against the more powerful Corn- huskers. Scoring in all but the last two innings, the Oklahoma name- sakes came out on top in the close 10 to 7 battle. The Sooners have been another one of the hard luck teams of the season, playing part of the time with a few players missing. The losers -have been a hot and cold team all during the summer, but not for the lack of a good pitcher. Wilkinson, who hurls for the ’husker boys, is considered one of the best on the Hill. He has had past experience, having held the same position last summer. In Wednesday’s program probably the most interesting contest was that between the Tigers and the Wildcats. It ended up in a tie and they were forced to go an extra inning with the Tigers Lead E In Last Lap | Gi? te leading Tigers finally winning 12 to 10. The winners got a slow start, scoring only one in the first and none in the second. In the fourth and sixth they tallied 3 runs each inning and in the eighth added two more scores which brought them victory. On the other hand, the Wildcats made a strong start scoring 6 runs in the first two innings, then added one in the sixth and three in the seventh which tied up the game. Failing to score in the seventh cost them the contest. Knipe was the shining star for the Tigers in having a perfect day at bat. Lawrence collected three for four times at bat for the Wildcats. The Cyclones sang the same old story. They were defeated for the second time this week. The Corn- huskers scoring six in the first, four in the third and two in the fourth easily won by a 12 to 4 score. In an abbreviated affair of five in- nings, the rejuvenated Sooners were able to pile up such a margin against the Jayhawks in their 18 to 2 score, that it was decided to call the game. |. The season will be finished up with Monday’s games. The mighty Tigers, who have led all season, have played consistently good ball. Only once or twice have they found themselves in trouble, never very seriously. An All Star team will appear in the paper next week and this selected group will play either a team in a night game in North Lawrence or clash with the second All-Star team on the Hill.

The contest is destined to make basket- ball history, for it is one of the few games, if not the only one, to be | played using the new restrictions | anywhere in the country before the | “beginning of the regular court sea- son. The fact that Dr. Allen was in- fluential in some of the changes and new ideas injected into the equip- ment to be used this year heightens the interest in the game. Results of the play will be a vital factor in de- termining the type of coaching ad- justments to be made for the 1940 season, and fans who witness the affair should have plenty to talk about in anticipation of this year’s revitalized style of basketball. Dr. Allen’s year-old game, Goal- Hi, which was popular with the summer session students last year, received quite a bit of national rec- ognition.

Fall practice gets*under , way Sept. 10. Fourteen lettermen and four men who won provisional letters last fall will form the nucleus around which Coach Henry will build his team. A number of promising sophomores will bid against the veterans for posi- tions in the lineup. Lettermen back in action will be Ward Crowell, end; Jake Fry, half- back; Denzel Gibbens, halfback; Jim Holloway, tackle; Ed. Hall, fullback; Herb Hartman, guard; W. F. Jack, tackle; Jay Kern, guard; Quido Mas- sare, guard; Monte Merkel, tackle; Ralph Miller, halfback; Don Pierce, center; Ed. Suagee, quarterback; and Hubert Ulrich, end. In addition, Wayne Wilson, who lettered at cen- ter in 1937, will be on hand. Provisional letter winners who will see action include Dick Brown, tackle; John Burge, end; Chester Gibbens, halfback; and Vincent Graves, end. Star of last year’s freshman team was Don Pollom, former Topeka high school ace. The fleet Topeka young- ster scintillated in spring practice, breaking loose for one long run af- ter another. He is expected to con- tribute materially to the Jayhawk offense. Pollom is the holder of the national high school record in the 200 yard low hurdles. The opening date will be the latest in recent years, despite the fact that the Jayhawks are playing one more game than they did last season. - In 1939 Kansas downed Iowa State 14- 0 and Coach Henry’s eleven will be striving to duplicate that victory at Ames, Oct. 5, The Jayhawks then return to the home field for their next two games, meeting Drake at Lawrence Oct. 12 and Nebraska here Oct. 19. Against the Drake Bulldogs, Kansas will be out to avenge the defeat suffered at Des Moines last fall. The Nebraska game will bring up the problem of attempting to put an end to the Corn- husker victories which date clear - from 1916. The “annual Kansas classic”, Kan- sas vs. Kansas State, is on tap for the following weekend, Oct. 26. Last fall this game drew a crowd of nearly 20,000 at Lawrence. The longest trip of the season takes the Jayhawks to Philadelphia for a game with the tough Villanova team, Nov. 2. Bib Six competition is re- sumed the following weekend with Oklahoma coming to Lawrence Nov. 9 for a conference game. The Soon- ers again rate as one of the main contenders for the league crown. Back to the East go the Kansas gridders the following week for a game with George Washington Uni- versity at Washington, D.C., Nov. 16. Last year the Colonials’ beat the Jay- hawks in a real thriller 14-7. The “Big Game”, Kansas vs. Mis- souri. will be played on Missouri’s Thanksgiving Day, Nov. 21. This will give the Jayhawks only a short pe- riod of rest between that all-import- ant engagement and the long trip to Washington. When Thansgiving is celebrated in Kansas, Nov. 28, the Jayhawks will be playing Colorado State at Law- rence in the final game of the season. The 1939 game resulted in a 7-0 vic- tory for Henry’s eleven over the Coloradoans. Sooners Fear njo-¥ The Name Allen Howard Engleman, a member of the University’s Western N.C.A.A. championship basketball team, has written Dr. F. C. Allen, basketball coach and summer recreation pro- gram director, that the gentry around Bartlesville, Okla., where Engleman is employed, “are still wondering what you had up your sleeve at Wichita last winter.” Engleman, referring to the amaz- ing victory of the Jayhawkers over Oklahoma A. & M. for the right to enter the Kansas City tournament, ‘Says that the name Allen “strikes fear in their hearts.” An interesting observation made by “Rope”, as he is known here, is that there is a decided lack of in- terest and loss of love for the game of basketball by professional players, “when they’re playing for their bread and butter.” He also admitted he’s already homesick for the next basketball season, more than five months away. Engleman, it will be remembered, scored the winning basket in the final hectic seconds of the game with the University of Southern Cali- fornia for the right to meet In- diana’s Hoosiers for the national championship, Okla. A. & M. May Battle, ,» The Jayhawks No definite decision has yet been made by Kansas and Oklahoma A. & M. to play basketball games next season, but tentatively scheduled is an encounter here Feb. 18 with the possibility that a repeat performance will be held in Stillwater some time during the season, Dr. Forrest C. Al- len, head basketball coach at the University, said today. - The Missouri Valley champions, coached by Henry Iba, are undecided | as to whether or not they should schedule two games with the Jay- hawkers, an attitude rather in con- trast to proceedings of last year when negotiations were made eagerly with Dr. Allen to have Kansas meet the Aggies, with the result that the Cow- boys licked the Jayhawks twice, lost once, and then lost to them again in the game at Wichita for the right to play in the N.C.A.A. championships in Kansas City. Since the Wichita fracas, Iba has lost four of his out- standing men and must build a new team this year, which might have something to do with his indecision about scheduling games with Kan- sas. For the first time in many years, the Allenmen will be pitted against the University of Wichita, Feb. 4, thefe, barring unforeseen ob- stacles, Dr. Allen announced today. The game will be one of eight non- conference games on the Jayhawker schedule, which includes a game with Fordham, at New York, and Temple, at Philadlphia. Following is the schedule as it stands at present: (Big Six Conference) Oklahoma at Norman, Jan. 8. Iowa State at Lawrence, Jan. 13. Missouri at Lawrence, Jan. 16. Kansas-S. at Manhattan, Jan. 20. Neb. at Lawrence, Feb. 10. Mo. at Columbia, Feb. 21. Kansas S. at Lawrence, Feb. 25. Neb. at Lincoln, March 1. Iowa State at Ames, March 7. | Oklahoma at Lawrence, March 8. (Non-Conference) Okla.

Nash, director. En- rollment is expected to reach 350 early today. Four speakers were heard during the morning session. Dr. Louise | Farwell Davis, reading specialist of the National College of Education, | Evanston, IIL, spoke at the. 9:30 a.m. | session on “Trends in School Learn- ing which Should Reduce Failures in Reading Skills.” At 10:30 o’clock Dr. Angela Broening, supervisor of Eng- ish and reading in the Baltimore gublic schools, spoke upon “The Place of Reading in a Democracy.” Miss Frances H. Mitchell, reading specialist of the Horace Mann school n New York City, led the remedial reading discussion for the inter- mediate grades and Miss Dorothy Horton, reading consultant for Scott- Foresman Co. of Chicago, spoke on reading readiness for the primary grades. Dean Paul B. Lawson greeted the group at the 8:30 meeting in behalf of the University, and Dean R.. A! Schwegler extended greetings from the School of Education. Dr. Nash outlined the general plan of the six, day program. Miss Louise Abney, director of | speech for the Kansas City, Mo., schools . spoke last evening on “Speech Difficulties and Develop- ment of Reading”. Lectures and discussions continued during the afternoon with the same four speakers, and a demonstration | of instrumentation in reading. | Dr. RB. H. Wheeler of the psychol- ogy department of the University will talk on “Application of Organ- ismic Principles to Reading” at 8:30 this morning, followed by lectures by Dr. Davis, Dr. Broening, Miss Mit- chell and Miss Horton during the re- mainder of the day. “A nation is cultivated only so far as the individual is cultivated,” said Dr. Broening in her lecture yester- day on reading and democracy. “An awareness of the individual respon- sibility in a country where personal liberties exist is an essential of de- mocracy,” she said. “We must teach students that every freedom carries a responsibility.” bh Dr. Louise Davis pointed out the need for better teacher preparation and an increased awareness on the part of school administrators of the need to help raise the learning level of the child and so reduce problems in reading.

Play for all teams will begin next Mon- day, with games. scheduled between the Sooners and Wildcats, the Cy- clones and Tigers, and the Jay- hawkers and Cornhuskers. The schedule for the first round has been drawn up and is printed elsewhere in the Kansan. The sec- ond’ round will begin immediately upon completion of the first, which ends July 8. Softball players who have not yet signed up were urged by Dr. F. C. Allen, director of physical education, to do so immediately if they wish to play. Umpires for the league will be Dr. Allen, J. W. Twente, professor of ed- ucation, and E. R. Elbel, associate professor of physical education. Games will be played on the in- tramural fields located south of the ‘campus behind Robinson gymna-. sium. There will be no admission charge and a game between the league champions and an all-star. team will be offered as an extra at- traction at the season’s end.

So cancel your plans, kids. “Al-Star’ Game Is On Deck Twenty-two a Fa ee high schools and junior colleges will choose up two teams from their number and play a basketball game July 31 in Robinson gymnasium at 8 p.m., it was announced today by the department of physical educa- tion. The mentors, enrolled at present in the advanced basketball- course being taught by Dr. F. C. Allen, head basketball coach here, will begin practices for the encounter this week. They will use stream-lined backboards, a new substitution rule, a new out-of-bounds rule, the waiver of the free throw rule, and the new ball possession rule as ex- perimental factors in their play. These restrictions are a part of the 1940 basketball rules recently drawn up for the coming season. Dr. Allen will referee the game. Following is the list of coahes who | will play in the game: Gerald Barker, Great Bend, Kan.; Lee Ca- sida, ElDorado, Kan.; Henry Dingus, | Meade, Kan.; Ashley Elbl, Wyan- dotte; M. W. Everley, Garden City; Vernon Hayes; Lecompton; Willis Hockett, Atchison; Robert Hunt, Overbrook; Dale Hutchinson, Table Rock, Nebr.; Joe Kibler, Benning- ton; Herbert .Knipp, Eudora; Joe Limes, Chanute Junior College; H. A. Lonborg, Minneapolis; John Lon- borg, Argentine, Kansas City, Kan.; Donald Meek, Minneapolis; Harold Pitts, Maple Hill; Harold Reade, Shawnee Mission; Elmer Schaake, Lawrence; David Shirk, Augusta; Lawrence Stanton, Dodge City; George Stapleton, University of Kansas; Dick Swetnam, Bird City. The postponement of the all-coach basketball game leaves us without much comment, except that the in terest should be twice as great by Tuesday if the suspense to date is any criterion. Of course the bite will come to plenty of students who are boning up for those finals the morning after, but the “smarties” are ~ probably ready now, so thare should be a good crowd. Incidentally, the game is to be played at 8 o’clock in the evening and the seating capacity is unlimited. q— 2-0 Bye the bye, there’ll be two referees for that court battle Tuesday night, Dr. Allen and Art Lawrence, former Jayhawk basketball and football star now coaching at Wyanditte High in | K.C. The guys want it understood they will not tolerate anyone giving out with razzberies at their de- cisions. a ae A-t& / D NSAS. wf E {0 Coaches to Play Under New Rules Dr. F, C. Allen has arranged for the members of his advanced basketball class to play an exhibi- tion game at 8:15 the night of Aug. 1. The 22 men are all coaches and are trying to learn some new tricks while in summer school. This pre-season game will be played under the new rules and will give observers a chance to see how | these rules work out and what dif- | ficulties will result from their use. So drop around to the top floor of Robinson Gym and watch the teachers play their own game. I'sDoor Die As Coaches Vie High school coaches from all over the state, who are attending summer school at the University, will take part in a basketball game embodying the rules changes for the 1940-41 sea- son. The unique contest will be pla- yed in Robinson gymnasium, Thurs- day night, starting at 8:15 o’clock. The dean of basketball coaches in the United States, Dr. F.C. Allen, will serve as referee. There will be no admission charge for the game and the public is invited. The two teams have arbitrarily been dubbed the “Jayhawkers” and the “Tigers.” Herbert Knipp of Washburn, now coaching at Eudora high school, will captain the “Jay- hawkers,” ‘ibiile Don Meek, ej-Otta- we University star, will lead the “Tigers.” Other members of the teams, with the colleges from which they grad- uated and the schools where they are now coaching, are as follows: Jay- hawkers - Elmer Schaake, University of Kansas, Lawrence high school; Harold Pitts, Washburn, Maple Hill high school; Gerald Barker, Ottawa University, Great Bend high school; Dave Shirk, University of Kansas, Augusta high school; Dale Hutchi- son, Tarkio College, Table Rock, Neb, high school; Robeat Hunt, University of Kansas, Overbrook high school; Richard Swetnam, Ottawa University Bird City high school; M. W. Everley, University of Kansas, Garden City high school; Joe Limes, coach at Cha- nute Junior College; and George Stapleton, University of Kansas.

FRIDAY, JUNE 28, 1940 SPORTS TOPICS By Bill Koester The second full week of summer school has started the sporting blood in hundreds of students flowing as freely as the perspiration now that the full vengeance of old man Sol has been thrown upon us. Ever-in- creasing crowds are swarming the recreation quadrangle, and the de- mand for participation has been so great that many have been forced to relinquish their roles as com- petitors to others while they become spectators. This week’s street dance was post- poned, but have no fear. patrons of The Dance, because another one is scheduled for next Monday night, same place, same time, and with enough warm air stirring to make bathing probably be desireable, if not permissible. For the benefit of those students who do not yet know where these dances are to be held, the street is the one between the recreation quadrangle east of Robin- son gymnasium and the anatomy building, and you don’t have to bring your own floor wax—corn meal will fix it so you can save your shoes. Monday night marked the launch- ing of the Big Six National Softball League, with games between all teams. The Tigers defeated the Cy- clones, 13-8, while the Wildcats were losing to the Sooners, 8-2, and the Cornhuskers took the measure of the Jayhawks, 14-7, with thrills and clever plays spotlighting every game. Notes and personality sketches of the players in the league, many of whom are great athletes and now coaches in the state’s. high schools, will appear in this column in subse- quent issues. As yet no one has starred miraculously enough to have been signed for big league competi- tion, but the summer is not over yet. RENCE, KANSAS, FRIDAY, JUNE 28, 1940 By Don Powell The old familiar cry of “play ball” rang out as the six teams of the league opened up heavy barrages against their opponents Monday afternoon. Many a terrific hit was made to the pitchers’ mound and numerous dis- gruntled groans were heard as de- cisions were called off by umpires Allen, Elbel and Twente. In diamond one, Wildcats very ably lived up to their name by de- feating the Sooners by a score of 8 to 2. Both teams played exceptionally fine ball for the season opener, but the Wildcats showed their superiority in the hitting department. _ The Cornhusker team, under the Big Six National League Under Way This Week name of the outstanding team lo- cated in the state just north of us, as usual defeated the Jayhawkers. In the seven inning contest, they man- aged to double their tallies in com- ing out on top by a 14 to 7 score. Nu- merous errors were checked up against both sides but the Corn- huskers had little trouble in coast- ing to victory after the second in- ning. The third game of the season open- ers was between the Cyclones and the Tigers. The Tigers managed to gain victory (13 to 8) only in the latter part of the game, after the Cy- clones had led in the previous in- (Continued on page three) TUESDAY, JUNE 18, 1940 SPORTS TOPICS By Bill Koester Today marks the formal beginning ‘of the Summer’ Session recreation program, with a meeting for softball players scheduled for this afternoon in Robinson gymnasium, the begin- ning of games, concerts, and other forms of diversion taking place to- night. Dr. F. C. Allen, director of the program which is greatly en- larged over last year’s, expects greater crowds of both participants and spectators to join in beating off the monotony of classes and the summer heat. The Big Six National League, a softball circuit for Summer Session athletes, will get under way after this afternoon’s meeting. Six teams, as many as were formed last year, will make up the league. The team winning the championship will probably play an all-star aggrega- tion at the season’s end. Last year the winning Wildcat team defeated the all-stars 9-8 in a fast, exciting game. : Chuck Taylor’s failure to pick a (Continued on page four) Sports Topics--- (Continued from page two) single Jayhawker on his “All-Amer- ica” basketball teams was indeed an oversight which has soured many Mid-Westerners on Mr. Taylor. It is excusable only because we realize that Mr. Taylor isn’t the authority that the press associations are. Self- endorsing sporting v-setaonishrdlu endorsed sporting equipment and “Black Magic” basketball methods made to order for the natural-born flash of an athlete are his claims to fame. He picked only one of Indi- ana’s national champion Hoosiers on his team, which further indicates that he apparently gets his informa- tion from Life and other picture- publicity magazines. Of Mr. Tay- lor’s selections, Dr. F. C. “Phog” Allen—who doesn’t buy the former’s sporting goods—says, “With about 18,000,000 persons playing basketball in the world it must be difficult for Chuck to pick an all-America and still find time to sell his sports equipment.” But the inside story be- hind Mr. Taylor’s omission of Kan- sas men on his teams is so good it’s tragic that it can’t be printed at this time—because it makes Mr. Taylor look so very, very small. Milton Kelley, head trainer at the University of Texas, and former Jayhawker assistant, dropped in re- | cently for a_ short. visit.. Which brings to mind that the University is. getting a reputation for turning out excellent trainers. Roland Logan, of Army; Jimmy Cox, Harvard ace; Elwyn Dees, now at Nebraska; and Dean Nesmith, the Jayhawkers’ muscle doctor, are all products of this university, and all are big-time trainers.

Each evening instruction is offered to enthusiasts of this sport, while the afternoon is reserved for children. | Anyone interested in making bows should report at this time for in- struction. This event has been taken over by Ernest (Robin Hood) Davis, who has come to us from the “Sherwood For- est” of Indiana to carry on his studies in the Mount Oread woods of _ Kansas. , He does not stop with split- ting arrows, but believes it is more of an expert’s game if an archer splits tooth picks instead. A new angle of interest was added to the sport last Sunday. A group of students carried on a hunting and roving expedition through the woods. Anyone who would care to join this group should inquire from “Robin Hood” Davis at the recreational pro- gram in the evening. According to reports from the ath- letic office, there are more than fifty people who take advantage of the} range each evening. This is a very inexpensive sport, and one in which a great number of people can take part. The wood for making bows is cheap and all tools are furnished by the athletic office. | - Women-will- aierthe pouk-bn Mdnc Swimming Ours Set for Summer ’~ The following schedule for the use of the swimming pool in the base- ment of Robinson gymnasium will go into effect tomorrow, Dr. F.
