Pressbox Ramblings By J. Donald Keown
Nobody was really surprised by the letter appearing on Friday's sports page. There have been mutterings of unrest throughout most of the latter part of the season. Only that morning the Kansas City Times had carried a rumor to the effect that the entire Kansas athletic staff was due for a shakeup. That was, of course, ridiculous, for no coach with the record of "Phog" Allen is going to get the axe. He rates among the top three court mentors in the entire country. Nor were many of the suggestions made for coaching replacements sensible, with the exception of Mike Getto to head the football staff. However, this column leans heavily toward Bill Hargiss, if a change is made in the coaching personnel. However, if football is dropped as a major sport next year, the entire question will be postponed.

The point made in the letter concerning alumni influence in the selection of the new mentor was well made. Presumably, by alumni the authors did not mean all graduates, but was referring instead to the small group of "bigshots" who delight in displaying their influence upon such occasions. There is little doubt but that these men were the ones who beat down "Phog" Allen and Ad Lindsay, and brought Gwinn Henry to this school. Once, he was here, however, they turned their collective backs and left Henry to fight a hopeless battle on his own. Seldom have they done anything constructive for Kansas football, but they are eager to take part in the destruction of an athletic setup. They have bungled repeatedly in the past, and now the students deserve a chance to have the voice in the selec- tion of the football staff.
Few Kansas students realize it, but Hargiss has already served four years as football mentor at this University. He served from 1928 to 1931 inclusive, and in that period his squads won 17, lost 15, and tied two games. His team of 1930 had the best record of any Jayhawk squad since 1917. This writer has had the privilege of talking with several former Jayhawkers who performed under Hargiss, and all were loud in the praise of his knowledge of the grid game. His trackmen today consider him as one of the topflight sportsmen in the country. Earlier this tall Ray Harris, former middle-distance star, declared to this writer: "They just don't make them any smarter or finer than Bill." This seems to be the general concensus among the men who have worked under the track coach.

Many explanations are given for Hargiss' dismissal following his four-year regime. Most prominent explanation is that he shocked University and conference officials with his "subsidization" tactics. It is doubtful if anything along that line could shock the Big Six bigwigs at present, for certain schools in the conference already seem to have gone the whole distance. What was shocking in 1931 would probably not even be termed "subsidization" at present. Still another explanation is that Hargiss, a conscienced man, drove his men hard, and that some of them became disgruntled. This is probably at best only a part-truth. Certainly a man with a firm hand is needed here at present, and most players would welcome such a mentor. Hargiss' present position on the Brooklyn Dodger coaching staff speaks well for his ability.
At random: Kansas State has watched its opponent, prior to yesterday's game run up 328 points while scoring 53 . . . 37 of those points were at the expense of little Kansas Wesleyan . . . Don't forget, intramural managers, to get those all-star votes in tomorrow morning, for voting closes at noon . . . Your big Thanksgiving day games will be Northwestern and Great Lakes, Penn and Cornell, and Texas and Texas Aggies . . . There is a rumor that there may be no intramural basketball this fall . . .
Wayne Replogle, freshman coach, is back in Lawrence after a few days with his parents. He will leave for Norfolk, W. Va., where he will assume duties in the physical education division of the Navy Wednesday.

1942 All-Glamour Team Co-ed Selects Them
By Betty Lou Perkins
It's a difficult assignment to choose an all-American glamour team, when the pictures of the football players are usually taken at a time that the player is exerting every muscle and the only expression on his face is a horrible grimace. However, after mentally stretching their faces back into what might be a natural position, the following boys stand out for their gla-
mourous appearance. Now none of these boys may be able to trip around with a football or block or tackle or whatever is necessary, but they are cute.
A tackle is the good-looking Reldon Bennett, 220 pounds, of Louisiana State University. Besides being beautiful, Bennett is supposedly a good line man. From his picture. I should say Bennett is definite in his ideas, idealistic, trusting, and serious. He's the type who puts a girl on a pedestal and expects her to stay. He's probably too particular.
A Handsome Tackle
For instance, Vie Peelish. guard of West Virginia, weighs only 180 pounds, is not exactly handsome, but rates on my list because he is the Gary Cooper type with an added spark. He looks frank, boyish, and "nice." He's the kind of man a girl can confide in and he is always asked to every party to furnish the greatest share of entertainment for others by just being there.
