Jayhawkers Meet Aggies Here Tomorrow
BELL-owings

Kansas Sports Editor
If you ever want to feel the real glory of Kansas varsity athletics, go into Dr. Allen's office some afternoon and get him to tell you the story of the great Tommy Johnson. Hanging high on the Doe's wall is a legacy of the legendary character. Tommy was a Lawrence boy who had T.B. The local medies withdrew him from school and life looked pretty glum. Tommy was an active boy and he had ambition. He used to go down to old McCook field and watch Kansas athletes. He was a born competitor. He went back to school and in it he weighted only 155 pounds he started playing football with the big boys. His shifty hips and blinding speed made him the terror of the conference gridirons. Doc says that his greatest game was in 1909 when he beat Nebraska singlehanded.
Some of the freshman track men have been clipping off times and distances that make the future of K.U.'s track fortunes look mighty bright. Yesterday Don Thompson of Lawrence whipped off a half mile in 159. He was followed closely by Dick Edwards of Wellington City who was clocked at 159.5. Kenny Hamilton and Bill Reed have been knocking off quarters in around 51 seconds regularly, with the exception of yesterday and a couple of days ago JR. Jones hopped over 24 feet in the bread jump pit. If we weren't broke, we'd send each and every Big Six coach a bottle of aspirins.
The first of the three game series with Kansas State this weekend will get underway at 3 o'clock tomorrow afternoon. John Burge is slated to take the pitching slab for the Jayhawkers against the greatly overworked Jim Brock of the Aggies. Saturday afternoon's double header starts at 1 o'clock. Brass and Dugan will probably get the hurling assignments, while the Aggies will no doubt try to use Brock in the second game. Their other pitcher is double ful.
Spring basketball folded up yerderday afternoon. Dr. Allen教会 well pleased by the performance of his squad. Doc won't say much about Kansas' chance in the conference next winter. His squad spent the greater part of its time this spring in scrimmage. Most spring practices at K.U. are confined to fundamental drill and calisthenics. There will be no varsity-freshman game this spring.
Kansas' chance in the Big Six meet Friday and Saturday will depend on minor points. Some of the most important minor points will come in the weight points. Chet Friedland has that determined expression on his face when you mention the meet. He has little chance to win, but he is trying awfully hard for place points. Fen Durand, a conference champion as a sophomore, seems to have a cinch for a second place in the javelin. Waldrum of Missouri ought to win the event, but Fen is 10 feet better than anyone else in the conference when the jhips are down.
Cage Practice Is Finished
Three weeks of spring basketball practice at the University of Kansas came to an end Wednesday. The spring session was described as "very satisfactory" by Dr. Forrest C. Allen, JaiyahWijk cage coach.
Spring practice this year was unusual in that Dr. Allen did not have the men spend most of their time working on fundamentals, as is customary. Instead a great deal of time was devoted to scrimage.
I maddition to the usual purposes of spring practice, the session this year was used for research work. Throughout spring practice the convex backboards were used exculcibly, to get the players reactions to them
The convex backbacks will not be used next season, but Dr. Allen feels that his players are adaptable enough to get used to shooting on any kind of a backboard. The players report that they will be faster than the regular backbards and throw the ball out farther on rebounds.
The main purpose of the spring session was to work the freshmen in with the veterans. Thirteen veterans and 14 freshmen took school, practice and training they made was quite placing to Dr. Alen.
Last Home Game Series Starts at 3 o'Clock; Double Header Saturday
By Clavelle Holden, c'40
The University baseball team will display its diamond prowess for the next to the last time tomorrow afternoon when it meets the Kansas State Wildcats on the local field for the first of a three game series.
Saturday afternoon the two teams will meet in a double header with the first game scheduled to be called at one o'clock. The extra game was a result of an early season game that had to be postponed because of bad weather. In the one encounter between the two schools this year the Staters came out victorious.
K.U. Out of Celler
With the team standings slightly revised the Jayhawkers are now in fifth place as a result of the double beating the Sooners administered to the Iowa State Cyclones at Ames early this week.
tom two teams is very slight, Kansas holding a half a game advantage over the Cyclones. The Oread team must win two of the three game to maintain its new position.
Brock a Trouble Shooter
In the event the Jayhawkers should hit a hot streak and knock the Aggies off for the entire three game series, they will slip past the wildcats into fourth place, but if they should lose two of the games, they will return to the sixth spot on the Big Six baseball standings.
In one of the games, the Jayhawkers can plan on plenty of trouble because the Kansas State team has the number two pitcher in the league. Jim Brock must do his cap only to Miles of Missouri when it comes up. In the first KU-3-Angle game Brock was on the mound for the Aggies.
Broek will probably take the mound for the visitors in the opening game tomorrow. On the shab for the home team will be either brass or Burge. Dugan will probably round out the trio of starting pitchers for Kansas.
Final Appearance for Three
This series will be the last performance for two of the Johwacker regulars, Pat Holoteum and Les Kappelman. Cliff Brass will also play on
Golf and Tennis Teams to Ames

The members of the tennis team that left here were Capt. Harold Sinning, Kermit Franks, Blaine Hibbard, and Howard Engleman. Engleman will play number one position for the Joyhawkers.

Ray Harris and Ernie Klamm will participate in the one-mile run against a strong field including John Munski, Missouri. Both men will also represent Kansas in the two-mile run. Both are entered in the half-mile but neither will probably run unless Hargisg sends little Ernie Klamn in the event to grab all the possible minor points.

The Chesterfield glove, created by New York's smart designer Merry Hull...
Original and different too is Chesterfield's way of combining the world's best tobacco to bring out the finer qualities of each. It's the Chesterfield way and that's why Chesterfields are milder than other cigarettes. They also have a better taste and more pleasing aroma. Chesterfields really satisfy.
