AGE FOUR
UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, RAWRENCE, KANSAS
APRIL 38, 1946
By BILL SIMS
There are several points concerning the Letters to the Editor in Monday's Kansan upon which I would like to comment.
In Robert Roy Moore's letter, the fact that Roy Henry said during his coaching days that K.U. students were the greatest he had ever seen though his teams were losing regularly, was brought out.
This is true, and it also is true that student support as spectators always has been very good. But there were several men on the campus during Henry's tenure as head coach who could have made the varsity team, or certainly would have strengthened the reserves. It is also true that were several fine footballers on the campus last fall who played intramural football instead of varsity.
I don't call this co-operation with the athletic program, and I don't believe anyone else would do so. With these men out for the team, Kansas might have been a better than average club and might have climbed into the first division of the Big Six.
Mr. Moore brings up the part of the alumni in regard to the athletic situation at KU. This is a big factor, and I agree that we must obtain stronger alumni support.
It has improved a lot since Ernie Quigley has been in the saddle, and I believe that he is building one of the strongest alumni organizations for athletic support in this part of the country.
I agree whole heartedly with "A Baseball Fan" in his comment concerning the faculty. As I said Monday, there are some faculty members who believe that athletics should be abandoned. This is certainly detrimental to the sports program, and it undoubtedly has some bearing on the attitude of the students.
The baseball team has compiled a good record this season with three victories and one defeat, and I think we have a good team. But I also believe that we could have had a stronger team if several good ball players on the campus had gone out for the team.
When Ed Head pitched his no-hit, no-run game for the Brooklyn Dodgers recently, a former Jayhawk athlete was on the receiving end of Head's pitches.
Ferrel Anderson played baseball and football at KU, before he signed a professional baseball contract in 1939. His home is Maple City, and he was discharged from the service just two months before the season started.
When Mickey Owen jumped to the Mexican league, Anderson was thrown in to catch Kirby Higbe for the Dodgers. He caught Higbe against the Giants that day, and he's been the Dodger catcher since.

Jayhawkers Seek Fourth Diamond Victory; Netters Tie, Golfers Lose at Oklahoma
The Jayhawker baseballers will be out to garner their fourth victory of the season when they entertain the Sedalia Army Air base team at 3:30 p.m. tomorrow on the home field.
The Jayhawkers have found their batting eyes and promise plenty of trouble for any team on the schedule. Kansas made 23 hits in two games with Kansas State last week, and is expected to send out a heavy barrage of base blows in every game. day at Norman when Roy Sheaf and
Tom Saffell may get the call to pitch tomorrow. Saffell hurled a complete game against the Aggies, and also had relief duty in the second game. Coach "Red" Dugan may give him a rest, and, if he does, Bob Gilmore probably will be the starting choice.
Jayhawker fielding is still spotty, but the team is coming along fast. If the Crimson and Blue team can improve their fielding and keep up their heavy hitting, they may finish the season with only one defeat marring their record. If they can do this, they will rank at the top of the Big Six standings.
Probable Kansas starting lineup:
Anderson, rf; Pritchard ss; Morrow,
3b; Hogan, cf; Hayden, lf; White, 2b;
Stewart, 1b; Putz, c; Saffell or Gil-

K.U. Leads Big Six Tennis
Jayhawker netmen came from behind to gain a surprising 3-3 tie against the Oklahoma Sooners Monday at Norman when Roy Shoaf and Bob Groom staged a blazing finish to win their doubles match.
Shoaf and Groom also won their singles matches to garner all the K.U. points.
Kansas kept its undefeated season record intact, and remains on top of the Big Six conference standings. The Sooners had a much stronger team than the one Kansas defeated here 4-2 last week.
Linksmen Lose, $ 13\frac{1}{2}-4\frac{1}{2} $
Coach William Shannon's Jayhawkier linksmen lost to the Oklahoma Sooner golfers $13\frac{1}{2}$ to $4\frac{1}{2}$ Monday on the Oklahoma City Golf and Country club course.
This was the same score by which O.U. defeated Kansas at Kansas City recently. Coe, Oklahoma, was medalist with a 2-under-par 69.
