PAGE FOUR UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN. LAWRENCE. KANSAS THURSDAY, APRIL 27, 1939 Injury Ridden Cindermen Leave For Drake Relays Late This Afternoon BELL-owings by JIM BELL Kanson Sports Editor Don Ebling started his college basketball carrier under unfavorable conditions. It was known far and wide that he was the brother of the great Ray Ebling, '36, who was an all-American the year before Don came to Mt. Oread. Don started his sophomore year out as a member of a freak team known as Dr. Allen's "pony expression." This group was made up of five small and lightning fast players who were sent into games when the first team had built a lead. The other members of this team are forgotten now, but ole Abe is still playing great basketball. He has been a consistant starter for the last two years. He's a senior next winter. Old Man Injury has taken a heavy toll of Jawhayker athletes this year. During the football season he used the evil eye on Dick Aimerine, Lyman Divens, Max Replogle and many others. He started the cage season by laying Ralph Miller low and during Spring football it was Amerine again, "Ref Thompson Bill Bunsen, Red Fry, McQuinn several others. Now he's working on the track squad. On the hospital list are cindersmor Don Bird, Paul Masonner, Bill Beven, Fen Duran, Dale Heckendorf, Darrel Matts and Captain Foy. Have a heart, will you! Those new convex backboards that Doe Allen is trying out in Spring practice are giving some of the boys a little trouble. It seems that they are unable to get into the boards work all right, but the abbreviated board seems to be hard to hit on pivot shots. Some of the boys bank high on their spin spots from an angle and find that there is not enough space on the small board. The squared insignificant about the new chain netting. The Iowa State eagers will get their first taste of action Friday afternoon when they tangle in an inter-squad game. Jim Henderson, of the Cyclone news bureau, writes that six of the 10 starters will be freshmen. The Iowa school had one of its greatest freshman teams last winter. Add to this the fact that none of the 1929 lettermen graduate and you have cause for plenty of Jayhawk worry. Iowa State isn't the only school in the conference that will be strong next winter. Oklahoma will be back with the same bunch that shared the conference hunting this year. Missouri lost a lot, but George Edwards and his team both scored enough lettermen back to be as strong as ever. Nebraska and Kansas State are unknown quantities. Nebraska will probably be better than last year, but there's not much optimism at Agileville. This all goes to show that the Big Six is getting ahead of the kettleball holds every bit as much interest in this league as does football. Stuff and Junk!

Coach Bill Hargiss announced last night that he was leaving many injured men behind. The Jayhawker team will enter six events at the Des Moines meet. The distance medley relay, one-mile relay, two-mile relay, high jump, shot put and discus throw. Hargiss had entered 18 boys in the meet, but because of injuries, he will leave nine of hem home. Don Bird, veteran pole vaulter, sprained his ankle on his last attempt to soar 14 feet 2 inches Saturday and he will remain home. Paul Masoner, dasi man and hurdler, hurt a muscle in his thigh and will wait another week before he tries it out again. Durand and Beven Stay Bill Beven, javelin thrower and pole vaulter, injured his arm in the javelin throw and will not participate at Drake. Fen Durand, Jayhawker spear tisser rejuinforced his throwing arm in the Kansas Relays and he will not make the trip to Des Moines. Durand placed second here Saturday. Bob Stoland, Big Six indoor high jump champion, will carry the Kansas hope in the high jump at Drake. Stoland went 6 feet 4-3-4 inches here, but placed second to Schanacker, Iowa State jumper. They will resume their feud in the meet Saturday. Friedland in Weights Chet Friedland, Kansas weight man, will carry Kansas banners in the shut put and discus throw. And placed fourth here Saturday. Finals in the distance medley relay will be run Friday afternoon with the preliminaries in the morning. Kansas will run Bill Greene or Chet Cox, Charles Toberen, Ernie Klann, and Ray Harris. Preliminaries will be run in the one mile relay, shot put and discus throw. The Kansas entries in the one-mile relay are: Bill Green, Vincent Graves, Glen Foy, and Chet Cox This team is one of the strongest combinations going to the Drake relays from here, but there is always good competition in that sort of an event. Good Two Mile Team The two mile relay team is composed of Charles Toberen, Chet Cox, Ernie Klann, and Ray Harris. Klam and Harris are both strong additions to any distance relay team but this is one of the races in which the runners have to run distances that they are used to running. the members of the Jayhawk track team that will leave this afternoon for 'Drake are: Chet Cox Charles Toberon, Bill Greene, Ernie Heyars Harris, Vincent Graves Glen Foy, Bob Stolson, and Chef Friedy. Iowa State Here Friday There's liable to be a storm on the local diamond tomorrow afternoon. It might be a typical Kansas day with three inches of rain or snow or it might be the Jayhawker baseball team turning the Iowa State Cyclones from a devastating baseball machine into a refreshing spring breeze. ★ Cyclone Horsehiders Favored; John Burge To Hurl for Joyawkers This will be the first home conference game for Kansas and the opposition is going to be tough. Weather permitting, a second game will be played on the local diamond Saturday afternoon. Students must present their activity tickets at the gate to be admitted to the Iowa State-baseball games Friday and Saturday. Iowa State will enter the game as the favorite as a result of their 12-11 victory over Kansas State last Monday. It was a royal slugging with 28 runs being scored on the 35 hits the two teams got off eight pitchers. The outstanding man in the Cyclones offense is John Thompson, squity sophomore catcher. In non-conference play this spring Springton has batted 517. Everett Kucher. He's a strong hitter in the dict, sparking sophomore, both outfielders are the other big guns in the *owa* State attack. For Kansas, Conger will start practically the same line-up that started the game against Baker and Rockhurst. John Burge, sophomore hurler will start on the mound for the Jayhawks. Ed Hall will be behind the plate. The infield will be Sands, Paris Kopulman, and Buccaneers. Kun will be patired by Holum, Hensley and Caldwell- In the second game, to be played Saturday, Cliff Brass will probably go to the slab for Kansas. --do we spend hours and even years cultivating delicate plants? do women spend hours in the yard digging?

Team members like the all steel basketball nets as they make any kind of shot against the net instead of bounding off the court. The price of these steel nets will undoubtedly be the determining factor if they are to be approved. Dr. Leonard O'Bryon, a graduate of the University and a former member of the faculty at Baker University, has resigned from the Knox College faculty. Dr. O'Bryon will accept a position as teacher in the department of modern language at Stockton Junior College, Stockton, Calif. this fall. For the past year O'Bryon has been assistant professor of history and German, and reference librarian at Knox College. Phi Gam, Sig Ep, D.U. and Acacia Lead Mural Race Now that the major and minor league pennant races are under way, baseball enthusiasts are studying the results and statistics of games trying to pick a favorite to emerge a winner at the end of the season. Some of the "rookies" are off to a fly start and others are not living up to what is expected of them. Veteran major league stars are hitting a hot pace. Midwest, Cardinals, is hitting over 300, Greenberg, Tigers, and others in the playoffs run parade. Everywhere is action, enthusiasm, a new lease on life. By Clint Wood. c'40 Likewise, the University Intramural softball program is well under way. Teams have played a third of their scheduled games and favorites are shaping up in each division. Already spectators and fans are pointing out teams which they think will reach the playoffs and some enthusiasts are even trying to pick the University champion. In Division 1 the Phi Gams are probably the predominant favorite. Delta Tau Delta is the "dark horse" of the division with its first out- teaming team in a number of years, and the Sigma Nu are always dangerous. Members of various teams are also showing much promise. Players are so distinguishing themselves at their positions that many fans have already given them a place on the mythical All-Star team that will appear in the Kansan at the end of the season. Division II may produce the largest number of outstanding teams with Sigma Phi Epilion, Kappa Psi, Delta Upsilon and Beta Theta Pi, fighting it out for top honors. This corner will pick the Sig Ep's and D. U's an the better teams but the Beta's, last year's University champions are back with another strong team. Division III has nine teams, the same number that are entered in the other divisions, but only two will enter the playoffs. With at least "Phog" is chairman of the 5th district of the N.C.A.A. and also chairman of the research committee for the national organization.

Allen, Jayhawker basketball coach, will leave tomorrow morning to attend the annual convention of the National basketball Rules Committee April 30th May1st and 2nd at New York. 'Phog' Allen To New York While in New York he will meet John Bunn, "22, of Stanford and Harold Olson, Ohio State College, and complete plans for the regional campus," he said.
