Crippled Trackmen Entertain Tigers
The University track team minus the services of Bill Beven, ace pole vaulter and co-captain of the Jayhawkers and several other valuable men will meet the University of Missouri squad in Memorial stadium tomorrow afternoon in its last duel before the Big Six meet next week.
Orlando Epp, who with Ken Hamilton was slated to give Crosby and Tracy of Missouri trouble in the quarter, is out of shape because of the muscle pulled in the Drake Relays and will be unable to compete. Injuries Handicap
Paul Hardman will compete in the javelin but his arm is weak from burns suffered several weeks ago. Don Pollom wil enter the low hurdles and possibly the 100 yard dash, dbut his back is still troubling him. In addition to the injuries, the team will possibly be weakened further by the loss of Don Thompson, star half miler who may leave tonight for a government aviation school. Fortieth Track Meet
Tomorrow's duel will be the fortieth between the two schools since their rivalry started in 1901. Only one year 1904 has been missed in the annual conflict of the cinders between them.
In this time the Tigers have won 24 times compared to 15 wins for the Jayhawks. However in the last decade the University tracksters have won eight of the meets. The worst defeat suffered by either school was administered by the Jayhawkers in '33 when they crushed Missouri 103 1-3 to 27 2-3. The closest meet was in 1910 when the Tigers were defeated 13 1-2 to 55 1-2.

100—Mathes, Scott and maybe Pollom.
220—Mathes, Hamilton and Scott
440—Hamilton and Eberhardt
880—Hess, Poznik and maybe Thompson.

Another brother, Hugo, was a star javelin thrower at the University of Southern California recently. Came to Kansas in '39
DeGroot came to the University of Kansas in 1939, after being recommended to Doctor Allen by John Bunn, former Jayhawk athlete, who now is dean of men at Stanford University.

In the fall of 1939 DeGroot served on the Kansas State Physical Education Association Committee for organization of a suggested state curriculum for secondary schools of Kansas.
DeGroot's resignation makes the department's second loss this spring. Previously, James H. Raport had announced his acceptance of a position at Auburn as assistant professor of physical education and director of intramurals.
A Raise In Pay
"We are very sorry to see these men leave, in view of their contributions to the department," said Doctor Allen. "Both have done outstanding jobs."
Both men will receive substantial raises in salary, Raport getting an increase of $1100 at Auburn and De-Groot receiving a $1400 boost. "This serves to emphasize the opportunities in the field of physical education," says Doctor Allen. "And as in other fields, the most desirable jobs go to those men with outstanding ability."
