FOOTBALL

Ray Eliot, University of Illinois

Ray Eliot is one of the outstanding football coaches
of America. He has a dynamic personality and is a
great leader. One of the real success stories of athletic
lore is Eliot’s rise in the ranks of American football
coaches from 1932 when he graduated from Illinois and
took his first job at Illinois College, to his subsequent
return to his alma mater where he succeeded Bob Zuppke
as head coach in 1942. His Illinois teams have been the
talk of Big Ten circles and his successes against Min-
nesota, Iowa, Northwestern and other “big shots,” al-
though his material has been limited, is proof of his abil-
ity as a coach and handler of men.

Coach Eliot has been schooled in double and single
wing-back offensive styles of play and, since taking over
at Illinois, has used the T. So he is prepared from
anything. He will go down in football history as one of
Illinois’ greatest linemen and, with all these attributes,
we know our Kansas coaches will enjoy Ray Eliot and
profit by his, instruction. He will be here Tuesday and
Wednesday, August 22nd and 23rd.

Mike Getto, K. U. and Brooklyn Dodgers

An All-America tackle under Jock Sutherland at the
University of Pittsburg, Mike Getto had his first coach-
ing experience at the University of Kansas where he
showed his exceptional talent in demonstrating good line
play and teaching it to his pupils. He has been with us
before and those who saw him demonstrate for Jock
Sutherland here several years ago will want to work with
him again. Since then he has been assistant coach and
head coach of the Brooklyn Dodgers, professional team,
and stands high among the football leaders of the na-
tion. At present Mike is back in Lawrence, Kansas, as
a business executive, but he still knows his single-wing
and line play and will specialize in these at our school on
the 24th and 25th of August.

Special classes will be formed for those interested in
6-man football.

BASKETBALL

Wm. H. “Little Bill” Miller, D-X Oilers

One of the leading personalities in the athletic field is
“Little Bill’ Miller of Tulsa. He has played and
coached basketball nearly all his life and has turned out
national champions in A. A. U. circles. All have heard
of his method of “scientific body control” but this is the
first time it has been presented to our Kansas coaches.
His “relaxation” system has been adopted and employed
