UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS
TUESDAY, MARCH 4, 1941.
AS WE SEE IT By DON H. PIERCE
ALTHOUGH BIG SIX moguls failed to name a Czar when they convened in Kansas City Saturday during the conference indoor track meet, they gave an indication that such a step might be forthcoming where they meet again in Lincoln next May at the outdoor event . . Iowa State and Nebraska are leaders in the move which would create an official with capacities approaching that of Griffith of the Big Ten and Gman Atherton, hired last year by the Pacific coast conference . . Kansas is said to be edging toward the Iowa State-Nebraska side . . George Veenker, Iowa State, chairman of the athletic director board said Saturday that he did not feel that a boss of the Griffith or Atherton type was necessary for the Big Six, but thought that a man of the right type could do much for the conference in a secretarial leadership and publicity capacity.
AMONG NOTABLES present at the meet were Mike Getto, former Kansas line coach now tutoring the line of the Pro Dodgers; Ralph Conger, former Kansas freshman coach now at Wentworth Military; Bert DeGroot, University physical education instructor, K. W. Davidson, publicity director of the University; Dick Sklar, former All Big-Six Kansas football guard; Don Faurot, M.U. head football man; Ted O'Leary, former All Big-Six forward here; Harry Smith, former All-American guard at U.S.C. who will assist Faurot next fall; Hobbs Adams, K-State head grid maestro, and Ed Elbel and Sam Sifers, well known Kansas Relays combination, who handled affairs around the p.a. system for the event. DeGroot and davidson acted as officials . . . Smith and Adams had enough football to talk about to keep them away from the morning preliminaries. . . . Faurot could do little but moan about the loss of last fall's fine crop of backs, which included fullback Bill Cunningham to the draft. . . Cunningham had another year of competition coming. . . . The slight Tiger head man indicated that Big Six opponents would have their hands full stopping a little guy named Harry Ice next year, however. . . When that 27-23 halftime Kansas-Nebraska score was announced O'Leary grew dejected with the belief that the psychology would be all with the Huskers for the final half.
A HARD working Jayhawker team surprised everyone in general, and the rest of the field in particular, with a neat performance which landed them in third place, eight points below the potent Tigers, instead of a predicted fifth. . . . Biggest gun in the Kansas showing was Bob Stoland, who kangarooed to a new record in the high jump and also copped a first in the broad jump to be one of the two double event winners of the evening. . . . Bill Smutz, Nebraska hurdler who grabbed firsts (included for first)

Most of this week will be spent in running and passing practice with actual blocking and tackling beginning in about a week. Short scrimmages will be held later in the season.
Today is the last day for playing off ping pong and badminton games in the second round of the tournament. Dates of matches in the intramural swimming meet have been posted on the bulletin board in Robinson gym. First matches are scheduled for March 19.
Evelyn Herriman (IWW) defeated Peggy Davis (Theta) in the aerial darts finals by the following scores: 6-15, 15-13 and 15-13. Kappas and Pi Phis won deck tennis games over Corbin and Watkins halls, respectively in the finals matches.
Gridmen Check Out Equipment
Selected as players on the women's varsity basketball team are: Katherine Schaake, Helen Wilson, and Mildred Wells, forwards; Evelyn Herriman, Mary Chapple, and Margaret Butler. guards.
Varsity team players were chosen after the finish of class games from which the star players were chosen.
Thirty-six gridmen turned out for their first official day of practice yesterday. Fifty-three have checked out equipment, but sub-freezing weather held attendance down. Coach Henry sent the men through dummy scrimmage, but most of the time was spent in checking out equipment.
Gwinn Henry, head Jayhawk grid coach, today termed the spring edition of the varsity football squad as the best since he took over the coaching reins two years ago. "We won't have enough reserves," said Henry, "but if all come back next year, we'll be able to put at least one good team on the field."
