UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS
SUNDAY. MAY 3,1942
Rain blitzed the Kansas-Kansas State outdoor track meet yesterday but Jayhawk coach W. H. "Bill" Hargiss announced that it will probably be held Monday afternoon on the stadium cinder path . . . The Wildcats' terrific three of the track—Jim Upham, Rufus Miller, and Jimmy Johns—all were capable of running the half mile in less than two minutes flat in their high school days . . . In 1938, Johns won the state half mile with Miller taking second and Upham third. Last week Johns ran a 1.56.8 half in one of the relay races at the Colorado Relays—exceptionally good time for the mountainous altitude . . . Upham, who ran under the tulelage of Henry Shenk, University physical education instructor and former Junction City high school coach, has been skifted from the 880 to the 440 and shorter dashes. He holds the Jayhawk-Wildcat meet record of 52.6 which was set on Kansas' indoor two lap track . . . K-State mentor Ward Haylett concedes "Bill" Hargiss first in the javelin and predicts that Milo Farneti, Jayhawk javelin tosser, will set a new meet record. Another mark that will be threatened is the high hurdle record. Kansas' Don Pollom and Ed Darden, veteran Aggie track captain, always put on a sparkling exhibition in the high timbers. Darden cleared the barriers in 14.5 to best Oklahoma A and M's ace, M.Ralph Tate, in a Wildcat-Cowboy dual earlier this year.
Sooners Have the Pitchers
Sooners Have the Pitchers
Hercules Hal Cumberland is one big reason that the Oklahoma Sooners have two Big Six baseball victories to their credit (although they have done only mediocre outside the conference.) Cumberland, native of Salina, is going into his third season on coach Jack Baer's Sooner nine. He has worked in seven games, won two, lost one; Hal has whiffed 39 batters in 35 innings, given up 21 hits and 10 earned runs. So far he has an average of limiting the opposition to 2.57 earned runs per game . . . Almost matching Cumberland's performance is Dee Sanders, Sooner sophomore. He has an earned run-per-game average of 2.67; Sanders has hurled 39 innings of ball in six games; he has three wins to his credit against one set-back. He has struck out 29 batters and yielded 11 earned runs.
That Record Half at Drake
Did Bill Lyda run the anchor half on Oklahoma's record - smashing medley quartet under the world record at Drake? Two timers snapped their watches on Bullet Bill in the time of 1:49.5.-1 second below Erikoy Robinson's world mark. He was reported as having run anchor in 1:49.7.
Creighton, against whom Kansas will probably make their basketball debut next year, was voted by West Texas Teachers the best team the tall boys from down in the heart of had met all year. The Bluejays ejected West Texas from the New York Metropolitan tournament by the slim margin of one point. Big Ed Beisser, Creighton center, received a position on the Texans' all-opponent team.
Kansas Batsmen Hit The Road
To Play Aggies In Night Game
The Jayhawk baseball team hits the road to open its traveling campaign against Kansas State on the Wildcat diamond tomorrow night under the lights. The two state rivals will tangle again Tuesday afternoon before the Jayhawks return home.
Kansas has suffered one conference setback 11-3 at the hands of Missouri, defending Big Six baseball champ. The Wildcats have downed Mizzou 3-0 for their only conference victory; they have fallen before Missouri 1-0 and before Oklahoma 8-6 and 11-4.
In non-conference competition, the Jayhawks have lost a pair to Ft. Leavenworth's soldier nine 3-1 and 8-7. Outside the Big Six, the Aggies have been bested 8-6 and 4-3 (in 11 innings) by Oklahoma A. and M.
Batting Averages Even
Batting average for Kansas starting nine, compiled for the three complete contests they have played, is .237 as compared against the Aggie team's average of .225.
With one hit out of one official trip to the plate, Denzil Gibbens leads the Kansas batters. Dean Martin, Jayhawk rightfielder, has gathered four hits in nine times at bat for a .444 average. Catcher Warren Hodges, boasting a .357 average, on five safeties in 14 times at bat, has proven Kansas' best bet to hit with men abase. He has batted in four tallies in three games
Charlie "Hippo" Kier and Norbert Raemer, both K-State football stalwarts, lead the Wildcats in hitting. Kier has eight hits on 24 times at the plate and Raemer has two safeties in six tries, each with a .333 record.
Pitching. No Fielding
Pitching is the strong point of the Aggie baseball aggregation with Lee Doyen leading the way. Other hurlers who toss for the Wilcats are sophomore Heath, who defeated Missouri, Shapely, and Reese.
Joy of Forrest C. "Phog" Allen's Jayhawker nine is the polished playing of the infield. John Krum. Marshall Hulett, Del Green and Knute Kresie or T. P. Hunter have averaged better than a double play per game.
Coach Allen announced that Knute Kresie, veteran Kansas moundsman, would hurl for the Jayhawks on Monday with T. P. Hunter, a first baseman converted into a pitcher, working Tuesday's fray for Kansas.

"Sweetheart Insurance"
Dormitory students at Newcomb college, New Orleans, have devised a type of "sweetheart insurance" which, they believe, will eliminate rivals in affairs of the heart.
Should a student suddenly become unpopular and wait to no avail for phone calls from her "steady" she can consult the dormitory "date book."
There, in black and white, she may discover the trouble. For in that book are recorded all dates of dormitory girls, with the exact time of departure and return and the name of the escort.
Failure to sign out, errors in signing, are taken up by the Campus Honor society and delinquents are confined to the campus for several days.
There is a way to beat the game, however. If one girl's boy friend takes a fancy to another of the students, the "chiselers" can have a strolling date on the large campus, in accordance with regulations, without recording the meeting.

Alpha Chi Sigma vs. Delta Tau Delta.
The Pflugerville Pflashes flunked the Sigma Alpha Epsilon softball team to the tune of 4 to 2 in last Friday's meeting on the diamond.
The Sig Alph team led off in the first innning by going down in one, two, three order. The Pflugerville team in turn picked up a run in their first performance at the plate.
The Sigma Alpha evened things up in the second ionizing but fell behind when the Pfiashes scored two more in the third frame.
Sigma Alpha Epsilon managed to push Kenny Thompson across for one more counter in the sixth inning but they were unable to sustain the drive in a manner sufficient to overcome the Pflugerville lead.
Phi Gam 6, D. U. 0
Phi Gamma Delta slugged out a 6 to 0 score to defeat the Delta Upsilon team. Bill Palmer, pitcher for the Phi Gamma Delta ten, turned in the shut-out performance. At no time during the game did the Delta Upsilon team have more than four men bat during a single inning.
The Phi Gam's scored one in the first, three in the second, one in
the fourth and ended up by scoring one in the sixth.
Wildest game of the afternoon was the one between Jolliffe Hall and Kappa Eta Kappa in which Jolliffe hall was the victor, 16 to 14.
Jolliffe 16, KEK 14
Neither team had serious trouble in clutching the opposing pitcher. Bill Bass was the pitcher for Jolliffe hall and Ralph Moody hurled for the K.E.K.
Jollife started in the first inning to make the game onesided by scoring six runs. Kappa Eta Kappa succeeded in scoring only once. Jollife collected four more in the second inning while Kappa Eta Kappa pushed three more across. From that point in the game the Kappa Eta Kappa team managed to more than hold its own with three more runs in the fourth inning, one in the fifth, and four in the seventh. However, the Jolliffe boys scored two in the fourth, two in the sixth, and two in the seven to beat out the Kappa Eta Kappa organization.
Puts War Pension Into Bonds
St. Louis — (UP) — John F. Carrow, St. Louis World War I veteran, offered to donate his $30 a month pension check to the government shortly after the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor, but received instead advice to invest his money in defense bonds.
The castor bean may become a major United States crop from which will flow oil needed to replace imports cut off by the Pacific war, says Dr. W. L. Burlison of the University of Illinois.
