Ineligibility Is Reason For Poor Track Showing
By Carty Dawes, c'42
In order to stop the circulation of rumors about why the University of Kansas track team has not fared quite as well as most Kansans would like to have it, Coach Bill Hargiss lists 22 reasons
Ineligibility takes the prize! In fact, the 22 reasons are ineligibilities. It is thought by many, that our school does not have good track men enrolled here, but by viewing a word-sketch of the men, who are eager to compete, but are not eligible due to lack of a year's residence at the University, or have not qualified scholastically, and have therefore been denied the privilege, the reader may see more clearly into the picture.
Hargiss Tries Hard
Mr. Hargiss has gone to considerable trouble in bringing to K.U., men whom he knows in a year or two he can turn into first class athletes. He does not, however, want his unselfish and honorable efforts mentioned.
Here are some of those men, whom he has offered to the University of Kansas, in the line of track athletes, who are this semester ineligible:
1. Bill Bunsen—Kanass State high school discus record holder, a potential 150-foot thrower; throws the javelin 200-feet consistently; tosses shot put 50 feet.
2. Ed Linquist—A first rate discus man
3. Steve Renko—Another fine discus thrower.
4. Bob Stoland-This year's track co-captain; a high jumper.
5. Dick Ash—Ran a quarter mile in 49.5 as a freshman.
6. Bill Walters—A good high
oper and hurdler.
4. John Mitchner-High school state role vault champion.
9. Claude Hargadine — a 180-foot javelin thrower.
8. Bob Lorenzen—A 6 foot, 2 inch high jumper.
11. Norman Sanneman—A good high jumper.
10. Orlando Epp--Recently ran a 49.4 440-yard dash with no competition.
12. Ivan Shadwick — A smooth, potential, 880-yd runner.
13. Bill Knight—190-foot javelin thrower.
14. Don Pollom—One of the best trackmen to come to K.U. A high and low hurdler, and sprinter,
15. Dick Overfield—An all-around athlete who was at KU, but went to Compton Junior College, California, because he was offered more for his efforts. Spectators will view him next year under Southern California colors.
19. Harold Wright—Broadjumper above the average. Contains Unavailable.
Captains Unavailable
Co-captains Ray Harris and Bob Stoland, both of whom have been unavailable this season, together assembled the total of 18 points in the Big Six Conference meet last year.
The foregoing is self-explanatory of why Kansas does not have a top-notch track team this season. But with a mostly sophomore team now, a crack freshman squad, and a number of the above-mentioned athletes, who will compete next year, it is easy to predict that Bill Hargiss will be proclaimed a wonderful coach because he brings in a winning team.
Y.M.C.A. to Hold Aquatic School
An Aquatic Training school for leader examiners in Y.M.C.A. life saving will be held in Fort Leavenworth at 9 a.m., May 14 and is open to anyone who has qualified in the senior test of the American Red Cross.
In case the candidate is able to qualify as a leader-examiner, he or she will be privileged to teach and give Y.M.C.A. life saving tests on the junior and senior level.
There is no charge for registration, but the candidate will be expected to arrange for transportation, and the expense of two meals.
Herbert Allphin, instructor in physical education and University representative of the Red Cross, has been interviewing students who are interested in taking the tests. Applications must be in before Monday noon, he said today.
Artists Desert Pen and Paints In Frank Strong
Leaving musicians behind with their instruments, the members of the design and painting classes of the School of Fine Arts, took their annual "walk-out" today. Leaving with Miss Rosemary Ketcham, head of the department of design, most of the members of the department went to Lake Tonganoxie this morning at 9 o'clock to spend the day playing games, picnicking, dancing, and boating.
Class rooms on the third floor of Frank Strong hall were nearly deserted today, with only a few students remaining to catch up on work. No teachers were in evidence and the office force closed shop and went along on the outing.
