SPORTSCOPE By Larry Winn
Horace Mason, '37 Guest Conductor
As the school year draws to a close, a number of crack athletes are winding up their four years on Mount Oread. Included are some of the finest young men to be found at any University in the country.
The "Three Musketeers" of the Kansas basketball team, Don Ebling, Dick Harp, and Bruce Voran, are as popular as any three seniors on the campus. Among American football players it probably would be hard to find many stars with the scholastic ability equal to that of Milton Sullivant, Jayhawk quarterback, and Russ Chitwood, first string left end.
Two of the best track teams in the country this year are coached by former K.U. mentors . . . Washington State boasts one of the best track teams in the school's history
. . . Coach of the Cougars is Karl Schlademan, who handled the Jayhawk track team from 1920 through 1926 . . . The other successful ex-Kansas coach is Brutus Hamilton, head track coach at the University of California . . . Hamilton coached on Mount Oread in 1930, 1931, and 1932.
Washington State's team has been highlighted by the work of Lee Orr, a star on the 1936 Canadian Olympic team . . . At the Pacific Coast conference track meet last week, Orr won the 440 yard dash in 46.9 and the 220 yard low hurdles in 23.3 . . . Willis Dale of Washington State won the 880 in 1:52.6, and teammate Dixie Garner was the winner in the two mile run at 9:12.5, a new conference record.
Brutus Hamilton's stars at California include Herb Michael, 53 foot shot putter; Barney Wolf, 155 foot disc thrower; Guinn Smith, 14 foot 3 inch pole vaulter; Martin Biles, 209 foot javelin thrower; Clarence Barnes, 47.9 quarter-miler; Denzel Widel, 153.5 half-miler; and Ted Vollmer, 9:18 two miler.
At present, however, Hamilton is spending much of his time thinking about next year when his freshman middle distance ace, Grover Klemmer, is eligible for varsity competition . . . Klemmer has shown far greater promise than did Archie Williams, the junior college transfer, Hamilton made into an Olympic champion in the 400 meters . . .
The tall California freshman has run the 440 in 47 flat and the 880 in 1.53.
Cage Doubleheader With Texas Carded For Next December
The University of Texas basketball team will play the Kansas team as a return engagement of a two year contract Dec. 9 and 10, Dr. F. C. Allen announced today.
Two years ago when the Jayhawkers played at Austin, they won the first and Texas won the second
Freshman Miler Ready To Fill Glenn's Shoes
As Glenn Cunningham, Kansas' most famous athlete, does his packing and prepares to leave Mount Oread, a freshman who may be K.U.'s successor to the Elkhart Express in national circles is training daily on the Jayhawk cinder track.
The promising yearling is not barrel-chested like Cunningham and is even shorter, but he has that one all-important thing, the will to win. @___
This freshman ace whom Coach "Bill" Hargiss is grooming for stardom is Jack Bellman, who performed brilliantly for Argentine High School in Kansas City, Kan.
His rise to fame on the cinder track was sensational. In the short space of eight months Bellman made himself a champion. He started running in October of his junior year and the following May he was the winner of the mile run at the state high school track meet.
Bellman first won notice in high school for his skill as a violinist. During the latter part of his career at Argentine, he was concert master of the high school orchestra.
The fact that he won the championship that day was overshadowed by the time he made, however. A 4:30.2 mile for a boy who has been running less than a year is an exceptional feat.
Bellman retained his mile title at the state meet last spring, but won in slower time than the previous year, due to a rain-soaked track.
Rather than running for records in high school, Bellman ran just fast enough to win and consequently avoided the danger of getting "burned out."
This year Bellman has likewise had the opportunity to go along without straining. He has run a full mile only twice this year, spending most of his training time building up endurance or working on his sprint.
At Argentine high, Bellman ran the 220 as well as the mile and the little
distance runner is a creditable fur- long runner. Hargiss feels that Bellman could run the 880 in 1:55 right now and is sure that the Kansas City boy will be under 4:20 in the mile regularly next year.
Gordon Gray New Frosh Cage Coach
Gordon Gray, of Newton, former University of Kansas basketball player and Big Six pole vaulting champion, will succeed Ernst Uhrllaub as freshman basketball coach next year, Dr. F. C. Allen announced today.
Since graduation Gray has been an all sports coach at Harlingen, Tex. He is returning to the University to take his masters in physical education.
Gray was a member of the varsity basketball team in '33, '34, and '35. Uhrlaub was captain of the team in '21.
