Dr. Forrest C. "Phog" Allen, KU's retired basketball coach, mildly disappointed most of those persons present at the annual basketball banquet Wednesday night by refusing to comment on Harry Henselsh of the AAU. Instead he jokingly discussed some of the joys and woes of his 39-year career.
Phog's Comments Mild For Change
VERNONS HARDWARE 1029 Mass.
Among the disappointments of his career Dr. Allen listed "...working for 30 years at a high school coach's athletic board behind me."
Although he tempered this remark by saying "I'm not sore at anyone," he still took a swipe at the Kansas Board of Regents. "They can't fire me any more. I just want to point out that they broke their own inflexible rule when they hired Ernie Quigley, who was more than 65."
Others receiving some amount of criticism were newspapermen who write infamous sewage and take notes out of the context of my talks."
Praise For Naismith
Praise For Nasimhm
Speaking in a lighter vein Dr. Allen praised Dr. James Naismith, inventor of the game of basketball as
a great educator, declaring that Allen Field House should have been named after Mr. Naismith.
"I don't deserve it, and what I've said in the last two weeks proves it" he said jokingly.
Speaking after Dr. Allen, Chancellor Franklin D. Murphy quipped, "Many of you came here wondering if Dr. Allen would make reference to the Board of Regents and wondering what I would say in its defense. For those who had hoped to see the gladiators perform, we revel in your disappointment."
In a brief reference to Wilt Chamberlain, KU's freshman star, Dr. Allen said, "I never told Wilt that I would be coaching here next season. People have asked me if I would have tried to get him if I had known I was not going to be coaching. Certainly I would have."
Dick Harp, who served under Dr. Allen for nine years said, "Some people think I am on the spot. I am standing on the best spot in the world. If there is one thing I'd like to do at KU, it is to perpetuate the great spirit we've always had here.

THE MANY LOVES OF THORWALD DOCKSTADER
When Thorwald Dockstader—sophomore, epicure, and sportsman—first took up smoking, he did not simply choose the first brand of cigarettes that came to hand. No, indeed! He did what any sophomore, epicure, and sportsman would do: he sampled several brands and then picked the gentlest, tastiest, most thumpingly, wondrously, unfailingly pleasing of all—Philip Morris, or corris!
Similarly, when Thorwald Dockstader took up girls, he did not simply select the first one who came along. No, indeed! Thorwald sampled. He took out several likely girls and then he compared their charms and then he made his choice.
His first date was with an English lit major named Elizabeth Barrett Grish, a wisp of a girl with luminous eyes and a soul that shimmered with a pale, unearthly beauty. Trippingly, trippingly, she walked with Thorwald upon the beach and sat with him behind a windward dune and listened to a sea shell and sighed sweetly and took out a little gold pencil and a little morocco notebook and wrote a little poem:
I will lie upon the shore,
I will be a dreamer.
I will feel the sea once more
Pounding on my femur.
Thorwald's second date was with a physical ed major named Peaches Glendower, a broth of a girl with a ready smile and a size 18 neck. She took Thorwald down to the cinder track where they jogged around thirty or forty times to open up the pores.
...They jogged around 30 or 40 times to open up the pores ...
Then they played four games of squash, six sets of tennis, 36 holes of golf, nine innings of one-o-cat, four periods of rugger, six chukkers of lacrosse, and a mile and a quarter of leap frog. Then they worked out for a few hours on the parallel bars, the flying rings, and the bongo board, and then went ten rounds with the eight-ounce gloves. Then they had heaping bowls of bran and whey, exchanged a manly handshake, and went home to their respective whirlpool baths.
Thorwald's final date was with a golden-haired, creamy-browed, green-eyed, red-lipped, full-called girl named Totsi McEstway. Totsi was not majoring in anything. As she often said, "Gee whillikers, what's college for anyhow - to fill your head full of morbid old facts, or to discover the shining essence that is YOU?"
Totsi started the evening with Thorwald at a luxurious restaurant where she consumed her own weight in Cornish rock hen. From there they went to a de luxe movie palace where Totsi had popcorn with butter and a bag of chocolate covered raisins—also with butter. Then they went to—a costly ballroom and cha-cha'd till dawn, tipping the band wildly all the while. Then they went to a Chinese restaurant where Totsi, unable to decipher the large and baffling menu, solved her problem by ordering one of everything. Then Thorwald took her to the women's dorm, boosted her in the window, and went downtown to wait for the Morris Plan office to open.
While waiting, Thorwald thought over all of his girls and came to a decision. "It is clear," said Thorwald, "that I am not yet ready for girls." "It is equally clear," he continued, "that a man needs a gentle companion, and who," he asked, "will be my gentle companion?" "Why, PHILIP MORRIS, of corris," he answered. "Philip Morris will be my tender comrade, my solace and my strength, my friend in adversity, my shelter in vicissitude, my boon and bosom buddy," and, so saying, Thorwald lit a PHILIP MORRIS and was content. ©Max Shulman, 1958
The makers of Philip Morris, who bring you this column every week, hope that Thorwald will soon find the girl of his dreams, and that they will make beautiful smoke rings together—with Philip Morris, of corris!
