Ryun to Run Mile Tonight In N.Y. City
NEW YORK (AP) — "Just once, I love to run the old way," said miler Jim Ryan, wistfully. "Way out in front, with everyone cheering for a record. Maybe ... one night."
Ryn may get his chance when the International Track Association climaxes its 16-meet circuit with the World indoor Madison Square Garden Wednesday night.
It's been over five years since anyone's been able to break four minutes for the mile run. Ryan was the last person to do it, back on Feb. 9, 1968.
The 26-year miler just might "run the old way" in this final meet of the first pro track season and try to better his world indoor mile record of 3:56.4.
"I've often felt like cutting loose and really trying to run a great time," he said, "but I know I have to save something for the next night."
This time there is no next night, so Ryun may take a shot at the $500 bonus which the ITA awards when a world record is bettered.
What's more, he's already clinched the $6,000 Grand Prix award for the mile, based on points awarded in each meet. Ryum has won 11 of 13 races as a pro, including his last nine in a row, although he has been bothered lately by an aching hip.
Ryan's dynic competition is expected to come from Kipchoge Ketno of Kenya, a 1968 Olympic gold medalist. Also expected in the field are Bob Messina and Keith Murson.
9 to Go to NCAA Meet
A group of nine athletes will represent the University of Kansas track team at the $2nd annual NCAA Outdoor Track and Field Championships Thursday through Saturday at Louisiana State University in Baton Rouge.
The team, accompanied by coaches Bob Timmons and Thead Talley, for belton Rouge Monday morning, where they will train for the meet. The Jayhawk team is rated as a likely contender for the title; UCLA is favored to win.
Leading the Jayhawk delegation are javelin thrower Sam Colson, spinner Mark Lutz, pole vaulter Terry Porter and hurdler Delrio Robinson and Gregg Vandevere.
Colson, a senior from Mankato, Kan., currently has the second best second in the world this year. He has been hampered much of the outdoor season by an elbow injury, but has ignored the injury to win the title and is now Track and Field Federation laurel titles.
sports
Two other Jayhawks, Delario Robinson and Gregg Vandevere, rate as contenders in the 120-yd. high hurdles. Robinson has a best of 13.4 at the Big Eight meet, while Vandevere's best of 13.5 came at the Kansas Relays.
Porter, who is the current NCAA indoor pole vaulting champion, is rated the favorite to win the outdoor title. He vaulted 17-4 at the Big Eight meet two weeks ago.
Lutz, the only double winner at the Big eight meet, is rated as a contender in both the first and second rounds.
Eight meet, he ran a wind-aided 9.2 in the 106 and 20.4 in the 220.
Other Jayhawks competing in the meet are Barry Schur and Randy Smith in the high jump, Bob Borknessel in the 440-yard race, Mike McDonald in the 3,000-meter steeplechase.

Trolleys Braved All Weather on The Hill in 1925
Shelter houses for waiting passengers were built at McCook Field, the Massachusetts St. turnaround and 13th St. and Prairie Ave. Streetcar service con- trolled in 1933. The Kansas Electric Power Company was waning and sold the entire system to Rapid Transit, who replaced the streetcars with buses.
switch near the old Robinson Gymnasium. The cars came down by the same route, and we were on the Louisiana streets, north on Tennessee to 11th St., east on 11th to Massachusetts St. and north on Massachusetts to 8th St. Two days later we provided service to KU every 15 minutes.
THE INDIANA run started at 8th and Massachusetts streets, ran west to Indiana St., north to 4th St. and back the same way. Another route was added which ran north across the bridge to 2nd and Locust streets, east on Locust to 8th St. and returned.
There were problems with streetcars too. On the Mississippi St. and Indiana St. turns, the rails shrieked shrilly, even though they were greased. Sometimes the motorman clanged the bell furiously to get the right of way.
Fast pitch and slow pitch softball leagues are now being formed for both men and women. Groups can register as a team or can sign up individually in room 108. Students who sign up individually will be placed on a team.
Passengers could transfer to any route on their original 5 cent fare.
When the snowfall was heavy, men worked all night with plows on the cars to insure the next day's service. If the rails were icy, the motorman released sand onto the track through a sand pipe which did not work on curves.
In hot weather the system put on open summer cars with canvas curtains which could be lowered in case of rain. In the early part of the century, many passengers rode carriages into entertainment. Those were the days when the streetcars were prosperous.
Intramural Entries Due By Friday for Summer
From Page One
CARS USUALLY carried a motorman and conductor. Students were frequently employed at 17% cents an hour in four-hour shifts. The last shift was 7 to 11 p.m.
The Journal-World reported in 1910 that two students had to be jailed for jumping on the bridge.
Intramural tournaments for both men and women will be offered in both fast pitch and slow pitch softball, tennis, horseshoes, and mud hockey, paddle ball and mud hockey (Putt-Putt). Golf
An extensive program of intramural sports is planned for the summer session at KNCS.

Howard also indicated that he hoped to sign two more players before next year and expressed optimism about the next season. He said the game would be Big Eight Conference, 44 points out of first.
"We were hoping for a fight in July, but if nothing materializes soon, the Tokyo fight will be the first defense," says Dick Sadler, Foreman's manager and trainer. Sadlier says the amount of money Foreman will receive has not been determined.
The fight apparently will be Sep. 1 in Tokyo against Puerto Rico's Joe "King" Roman, ranked by the World Boxing Council as the No. 1 heavyweight contender.
SAN FRANCISCO (AP)—Heavyweight champion George Foreman will return to the gym this week to begin "shaking loose" his title defense, his manager said Monday.
