Lady Jayhawk ball camp is starting off like a shot
By COURTNEY THOMPSON
Heat and humidity failed to dampen the first-day enthusiasm of the Lady Jayhawk Basketball Camp participants. After a two-hour workout in preparation for the upcoming week of hard work, several girls still ran laps and practiced lay-ups.
The Lady Jayhawk camp is in session until Saturday.
The first practice session, in Allen Field
the formation of the girl's
determination.
"Hopefully they'll have less energy by focusing on Washington, director of their organization, is a dedicated member."
Washington is directing the first Lady Jayhawk summer Basketball Camp. She said that the ages of the campers ranged from 12 to 17 but that most were 13 and 14. Skill levels range from the novice to the accomplished player, she said.
most of the girls are of average height.
Nance and Diane Van Hoozler, Fredenia freshmen, are less than five feet tall, but speed easily makes up for the lack of踝.
Two girls in the camp session are more
honest than the Harrie Horn, Shawnee
Mission North aphrodite.
An emphasis on the effective use of speed and play execution gives each player the opportunity to develop her size and abilities, Washington said.
Connie O'Bryhim has an additional factor to contend with in working on her basketball skills. She is deaf. Connie doesn't know sign language, nor do her parents, Washington

"She's been going to a school in which the teaching is primarily linguical so she's learning to lip读. I introduced her to the other campers, explained the situation to them, and I expect it will be a real experience for the girls to extend to her."
Laurie Walker is here with four other members of the Columbus, Kan., high school team. She said she had played for two years.
"When I was just a freshman I didn't even know how to dribble," she said.
Many of the younger and less experienced girls are at the camp just to have fun. Others are serious about future prospects in college basketball. Washington said at least four girls who attended University of Kansas next fall would be prospective team members.
The object is to soundly develop the
oddoman's basketball, Washington
and Ohio State. The girls are
the girls at the nationals.

we don't intend to give them much time to run. They will work about eight hours.
Mornings are spent working on individual aspects of the game—defense, offense and drills on fundamentals. Lectures on techniques and strategy during the afternoon sessions are followed by inter-team games each evening.
With six or seven players on a team, each girl will get to play a lot. Washington said.
he can get to a pay lot, Washington said.
"A major portion of the learning is done during the actual games when they can see how it all fits together," she said.
There will be breaks from the basketball schedule during the week. A picnic and tour of the campus are planned. Awards will be given next Friday evening at the close of the
Each girl will receive a certificate of participation and special awards will be presented for individual achievement. The teacher should think should receive a congratulatory award.
Washington said she hoped the girls who participated in the camp would be her best bet. "I have no doubt that they will."
"Word-of-mouth publicity from past participants talking about the summer camps to friends is the best way to encourage support for girls." "I have no doubt the camps will provide an excellent source of funds for the women's athletic programs."
A consideration in the promotion of the camp was the use of tuition fees. Funds from the Lady Jayhawk camps are kept within the women's athletic department, where she is instructed that she and her staff received no compensation for conducting the summer camps.
