Cox Awarded Honor Medal
Athlete Is First to Receive Distinction Provided by Big Six
Forrest "Frosty" Cox of Newton, has been awarded the Big Six honor medal for Kansas was announced yesterday by Chancellor E. H. Lindley. When the Big Six was organized, provision was made for the awarding by the conference of a medal to the outstanding athlete selected by each of the schools but this is the first time the University of Kansas has made such a selection.
The medal is awarded to a student who must have not only a good athletic record for at least two years or more but also a high scholastic standing.
Cox played football and basketball all three years and was honorary captain of the 1929 basketball team. He will be a member of the Kansas coaching staff next year.

Rockne's Spectacular Football Plays to Be Kept Alive by Men He Tutored
Chicago—(UP)—Knute Rocke, king of football coaches and prince among men, is dead, but the players he tutored to gridiron fame at Notre Dame will be carrying on next fall.
A total of 66 men, who learned their football under Rockne, are now coaching.
Thus the spectacular plays that featured Rocke's teams may be characteristics of the elevers which his former pupils will turn out.
The more prominent of his former stars who are coaching include Hartley Anderson, who will attempt to carry on for the late mentor at Notre Dame; Charley Bachman, Florida; Glen Carberry, Michigan State; Jack Chevigny, Navy; Charles Collins, North Carolina University; Jim Crowley, Michigan State; Charles Dorais, Detroit; Chet Wynne, Auburn; Harry Stuhldreher, Villanova; Adam Walsh, Yale; Bucky O'Connor, Yale; Elmer Layden, Duquesne; Tom Lieb, Loyola, Los Angeles; Edward Madigan, St. Mary's, California; Don Miller, Ohio State; Edward Miller, Navy; Gene Oberst, Washington and Lee; Frank Thomas, Alabama; Harry Mehre, Georgia, and Jimmy Phelan, Washington.
Probably the man who has won the most fame since he left Notre Dame is Dorais, who is classed as a "pupil" of Rockne even though he played on the same teams Rock did. Dorais was a back on the 1912 and 1913 Notre Dame elevens when Rockne played end.
The record Doris has made since he took over the coaching reins at Detroit University,has won him renown as one of the foremost gridiron mentors in the country today.
Another man of undoubted ability is Tom Lieb, who handled Notre Dame's team in 1929 when Rockne was ill.
Jimmy Phelan, who coached Purdue to the Western conference championship in 1929, and Harry Stuhldreider, one of the immortal "four horsemen" are others who have established themselves as among the best coaches in the game.
With this nation-wide representation, the spirit that Rockne instilled in his teams may carry on. And if it does, it will be the work of masters—masters who learned the game under the greatest coach of them all—Knute Rockne.
