23 KU Graduates Are High School Coaches
By JOHN McMILLION
Kansan Sports Writer
Across the state of Kansas former students of KU are coaching at various high schools. Some of these coaches have been meeting with remarkable success and one of them, Marvin Vandaveer of Wellington 'high school, was selected coach of the week by the Topeka Daily Capitol after his team tied top ranking Wichita North, Oct. 7.
One coach has already won the conference crown. He is Otto Unruh, father of two K.U. gridders, Arch and Duane Unruh, quarterback and end respectively. Unruh has tutored Clay Center of the Central Kansas league to five straight victories.
Boyt Baker, fullback for the Jayhawkers a few years back, has coped four victories at Paola while being held to a single tie with a ball club that was supposed to finish down in the conference a ways. The single tie was a 20 to 20 affair with Rosedale High school.
Last year's varsity center, Dick Monroe, lost two tough ones at Columbus against powerhouses from Joplin, Mo., and Coffeyville but since has rolled to three consecutive victories.
Marvin Vandaveer, in his second year as a coach at Wellington, won his first game and then dropped one to Wichita East. The following week his squad tied Wichita North who was ranked as the number one
Track Freshmen Are Working Out
Probably the finest freshman track squad in the history of the University is currently working out in Memorial stadium. Led by men like Dick McGinnn, K. U. Felays sprint champ from Leavenworth, and Wesley Santee, miler and two-miler from Ashland who has already tied K.U.'s freshman two mile record in a telegraphic meet with Colorado, the team should develop some great Varsity material.
Two boys look good enough to fill the hurdle gap for KU next fall They are Ken Kofel of Norton and Chuck Stubblefield of Kansas City. Kan. Another highly touted hurdler and also a freshman foot-ball player, Hal Spencer of Chicago, dropped out of school this week.
Frank Cindrich, Kansas City, Kan.; Diek Lewis, Topeka; Bob Whitaker; Ottawa; and Frank Rodkey, Pittsburg, should give the Jayhawker fresh squad a quartet of quarter milers that will be the envy of every coach in the conference.
In the distance events K.U. is a mile deep because, in addition to Santee, Art Dalzell, a state champion from Spring Hill; Darrell Brown; Kinsley; Norm Bitner, Kansas City; Kan.; Dick Bock, New York City; Lloyd Koby, Sedgwick; Ned Rooney, Fairview; and Dick Wilson, Albany, N.Y.; are ready and willing to go the route.
The field events, a weakness in the Jayhawker track machine the past few years, are looking up with the arrival of several outstanding prospects. Foremost of these is Bob Carpenter, who has a high jump at 6 feet 4 inches last year. In the broad jump Bob Carpenter of McPherson looks good.
The weight events look brightest in recent years with an even half dozen befties tossing the shot and discus around. On the shot, three football players from Illinois, Jack Cole, Park Ridge, George Helmstadter, Willmette, and Larry Marsh, Evanston, all can put the iron ball out in front a good ways.
In the discus, Dale Dixon, Topeka, John Fiffield, Kansas City, Mo., and Morris Kay, St. John, all look good.
Pie Falls In Popularity
Philadelphia (U.P.)-That pie that mother makes isn't as common as it's cooked up to be, a nation-wide survey showed today. The survey, made for a food-packing house, disclosed that dessert, for 80 per cent of the nation, means cake, cookies or fruit. And dessert doesn't come after dinner, either. The day's biggest meal is still "supper" to most folks, the survey said.
team in the state by both the Topeka Capitol and the Associated Press. Since then Wellington, a small school in a big school conference, has won a pair to sport a 3-1-1 record at present.

TURNER
BAKER B. SPERRY
Warner Coffin at Haskell and Dale Pittenager at Blue Rapids have each garnered three victories while being toppled only once. Haskell
has been somewhat of a surprise as it toppled Highland Park of Topeka last week to knock them from the undefeated ranks.
Bob Drumm, another former K.U. football star, is an assistant coach at Baker university who is currently leading the conference.
An end on the Jayhawker Orange Bowl squad, Bryan Sperry, is the master behind football fortunes at Hiawatha. Henzel Gibbens is also doing all right at Washington.
