Darkhorse Track Team Opens Indoor Season
Loaded with V-12 trainees and returned servicemen, Kansas will field a darkhorse track team this winter when it opens the indoor season January 26 against Oklahoma's power-packed contingent at Norman.
Ray Kanchl, who came up from Wichita East high school three years ago to guide Jayhawker track fortunes, has only two returning letter winners and one squadman on a ♥
corps of 50 that has been braving damp and cold in conditioning drills under Memorial stadium.
Both numeral winners are capable performers. LeRoy Robison, well-stacked football fullback, took third in the shot put last season with a heave of 45 feet 0 inches and already has nudged the big iron ball 45 feet this season.
He won the javelin throw at the outdoor fiesta last spring with a mark of 182 feet 7 inches and placed third in the Drake Relays, but won't get a chance at this specialty in the indoor carnivals.
John Jackson, the other monogram-wearer, is a 440-yard dash man who did not place in the conference meet two years ago.
Kanehl's top performer, however, isn't slated to be one of these lettermen. Instead it probably will be Bob Moore, a tall distance ace who rambled through the conference cross-country shows unbeaten last fall and placed sixth in the NCAA meet at Michigan shortly after Thanksgiving. He won the Ohio State college conference crown last year while competing for Dennison university.
Others on the prospective point list are Dick Shea, NROTC spinter; Harold Hinchee, V-12 half-miller from Cleveland; Bob Laptad, Lawrence civilian; Andy Lunsford, 880-yard product from Wichita North high school; Dexter Welton, NROTC hurdler; Mel Stevens and Joe Connelly, broad jumpers; Ray Dillon, spinner-hurdler, and Sherbin Edmonds, civilian high-idmper.
Edmonds, a freshman, won the Washington state high school title last season and has been clipping 5 feet 10 and 11 in early jumps this winter.
Hinchee was a consistent pointgetter in cross-country and should be even better at the shorter half-mile pull. Laptad was a member of Lawrence high's state champion medley relay team last spring. Lunsford, who has been in the navy two years, romped home with the Kansas Relays' interscholastic 880-yard title in 1942 and 1943.
Welton placed third in the high hurdles at the Ohio state college conference meet last year.
"The other coaches know as much about our team as I do." Kanehl laughs in prefacing the season's outlook. "We have so many Navy boys from out of state it's hard to tell how they will do in competition."
After the opener with the Sooners, Kansas will face Missouri in a duel at Columbia February 16 and Nebraska at Lincoln February 23. The annual Big Six indoor affair is billed March 2 in Kansas City's Municipal auditorium.

Dave Weatherby was high point man for the Wildcats with 11.

OFFICIAL BULLETIN
Basketball fans got a little more than enough for their money in the Oklahoma-Kansas cage game in 1943, as this scene shows. Competition was plenty close, and before the game was over the players came to blows in a good old-fashioned scrap, as pictured here. Oklahoma is K.U.'s guest in a Big Six conference tilt here Friday night.
All unaffiliated members of P.E.O. are invited to attend the Founder's Day dinner at the Eldridge hotel
