Kansan's All-Conference Team Announced
BELL-owings by JIM BELL Kansas Sports Editor
I imagine the conventional way to start one of these things we humorously call a "colum" is to pay tribute to your predecessor and beg your "fans" to forgive the mistakes you are sure will make. You to Milt Meier, the retired editor, I send you the first column he turned out and the efficient way he handled his staff. If I do half as well, I will be satisfied. As for my "fans," I'll let that go for the present.
Following Meier and Les Kappeleman to the sports desk has its draw backs. Plenty of them. Those Kanan readers who have been following the sports column for its wit are going to be disappointed, because my friends tell me I'm sort of "86" on the funny side.
But . . . I'll try to keep you folks entertained. Some of my ideas may seem screwy to you. If they do, let me know about it. I will appreciate and print any fit comment. Anyone wit many ideas about anything pertaining to sports is invited to drop around and chew the rag. The door is always open. I might not be able to give you a cup of tea like John Doe, but the latest dirt like Jimmy Robertson, but I will give you a chair and listen to which coach you think should be fired next.
To get away from the personal side of this thing, what do you think of Mielie's all-Blit-Igf? It seems to me that it's a wee bit stronger than Parks Carroll's Kansas City Journal published Sunday. Parkle thought that Harris of Iowa was better than his team mate Nicholas. That is the only difference between the two first teams. He left Bobbie Allen off of his second team and inserted Halm of Minnesota into a comment on this. Allen was undoubtedly more valuable on defense than Miller, but when the offensive side of the question is viewed, it's all Miller. I don't imagine the Phil Pa's are kicking both boys belong to that clan.
It's good to see Lyman Corlis getting the glory he so greatly deserves. "C" worked hard for Kansas for three long years, seldom getting much of the limelight. This year, however, he came into his own and really poured on the steam. He proved to be a great captain who always worked hard and usually got the desired results. Both Milt METER and Carrie Parke saw fit to put him on their first team.
And then there was the Big Sib track and field meet the other night. I imagine most of you were rather startled when you saw the results in the Sunday morning papers. Special orchids to Bob Stolland, Don Bird, Ray Harris, Ernie Glenn, Chant Friedland, Paul Masonner and Dale Heckendorf. What happened to the highly touted squad from Kansas State which was supposed to win the meet?
More about all-this and all-that teams: The associated Press' all-A.A. U. basketball team placed two ex-Jayhawkwrestlers, Ray Ebling, 36, was picked as first team forward, and the second team was hampered by injuries most of the season rated a guard position on the second team.
Baseball Crew In First Workout
Infield and outfield candidates will join batterymen today as Jay-hawker baseball practice gets into play, and the week of prelaminary limbering up.
Coach R. L. Conger said that if the weather permits the squad might even abandon its inside work today and have a little batting practice. Activities this week will be most confined to getting arms in shape.
Thus far seven hurlers, five of them lettermen, and two catchers have reported.
Senior Recitals Given
Bv Ruppenthal and Vetter
Honorary Captain---whether they flashed in one game and glimmered in another. All the members of the first team were consistent in their play throughout the season—not only steady, but consistently good in each game.
The first two of the three senior recitals scheduled for this week by the School of Fine Arts were presented Sunday at 10 a.m. and last night by Joyce Vetter, f.39, at 8 p.m. Both recitals were given in Frank Strong auditorium.
Miss Ruppehth studied voice under Miss Irene Peebody, associate professor of voice, and vice president of Dean D. M. Swarthout.
LYMAN CORLIS
Great Kansas guard who is given the position of captain of the KAN-SAN'S All Big Six team.

All stars time, unlike Christmas, comes more than once a year. With a hectic Big Six cage race just completed—one that gave fans more thrills than a dime detective novel—it is well to pick what I think is an all-star team now, before the season is mulled over again.

At one forward is Jimmy McNatt of Oklahoma. This had undoubtedly would be the unanimous choice of the Big Six coaches for an all star berth. McNatt was the speediest player in the Big Six and one of the deadliest shots in the history of the conference. Underneath and around
In addition to being a deadly shot, his passing was fine and he could dribble faster than his guard trying to stay with him. It

as dangerous as a manslaughter charge.
JIMMY McNATT
Homer Wesche was out of sight as far as the rest of the centers in the Big Six were concerned. When the other teams of the conference played the team from Manhattan, it wasn't K-State they were up against and out to stop - it was Wesche to stop. And the defensive work and play faced improvement, his scoring offset it all.
Wesche was the leading scorer of the Big Six, and this in spite of the close guarding he received as the marked man of all opponents. The rest of the Big Six marked Wesche, but he went right ahead marking up baskets in the scorekeeper's book. He relied mainly on a one-handed shot to pull him through. Wesche was the difference between a team capable of surprising with an upset victory over a favorite, and that would have been upset by a surprise victory.
Wesche is Center
dribble past his guard and sink one-handed shots that enabled him to grab the scoring record for one game in the Big Six when he snared 20 points against Iowa State. McNatt played a good defensive game also. He was a polished player.
Nicholas Other Forward
usually down with it or it deflected it to a teammate. His timing was near perfect, and his passing was of the best.
Although he wasn't a high scorer, he could be depended on for several points a game. His scoring efforts were topped by his performance against Nebraska when he scored 10 points. On the defense he was sturdy in the piano, and the man he was assigned to usually suffered a scoring lapse.
For the other forward, there was some debate as to whether Gordon
Nicholas, the Cyclone's sophomore center should be placed where preference to Harlan Keisury of Missouri. The season records of the two cagers showed a distinct advantage for Nicholas. Keisury came up fast in the closing
games of the season against and gave his best performance against Kansas in his closing game, but Nicholas was on the Cyclone machine all season.
Lobsiger Outstanding
Nicholas was a good, strong scorer and strong on rebounding, although his defensive work generally, could be improved. The fact that he appallediff off the court did not take anything away from his performance.
Corisius was one of the best rebounders in the conference and certainly one of the smoothest players. When "C" went up an a ball, he
There were only two answers for the guard positions. They went to two plays who were the steadying influences on their respective teams during the entire season. Lyman and his team, Missouri, were the only logical choices. These two cagers also fought it out for the captaincy of the honorary team. Corlis captured Kansas through 14 games which swawed the honor to his side. He led to leader to do that for Dr. F. C. Allen.
John Lobisager, as Corilis' running mate at guard, completes one of the strongest back court combinations in the country. Without Lobisager, the Tigers would have been without a share of the Big Sik title now. He was the most powerful player in his rebuiling was sensational and his defensive work practically was unbeatable. Like Corilis, he wasn't a sensational scorer but

Kansas Showing in Indoor Spring Grid Meet Didn't Fool Hargiss Practice Starts
Surpriseing everyone but himself,
Coach Bill Hargiss was very much
in impressed with his track team's
performance in the Big Six indoor
meet at Columbia. Only the Mist
garnered more points than Kansas.
By Larry Winn, c'41.
The Jayhawks exceeded the fondest hopes of its most ardent supporters when they finished in second place, after sports writers had relegated Kansas to last place in premeet predictions. The team is now pointing toward the outdoor season.
Couch Hargiss has been coaching a team that has been hindered by sickness and injuries all season, and in the Big Six meet it was apparent that the jinx had turned for the better.
More fantasy than the Jayhawk team's success was the record breaking victory of Bob Stoland in the high jump. Stoland had never been eligible until the start of the second semester of this year. Couch won the third jump as "the greatest competitive performance I have ever seen."
Stoland cleared his new record of 6 feet $34\%$ inches by a good two inches but Hargiss thought it best that Bob stop there because he was
could be counted on to contribute to the Tiger attack. He didn't shoot unless he had a good shot—he usually scored when he did bombard the player first and then sound attack, starting most of the plays and his passing was surefire.
not in the best condition and he might injure himself.
Another Jayhawker broke the Big Six pole vault record when he soared 13 feet $7\frac{1}{4}$ inches to better the old mark by more than five inches. Bird just missed 13 feet $11\frac{1}{4}$ inches when his arm knocked the cross bar off after his body was apparently broken. At its height Coach Hurgill feels that Bird will vault higher than 14 feet.
Coach Hargis will count on Ray Harris junior distance star, for some points in the distance runs outdoors. Harris ran a strong second to John Munski, Missouri ace, as the Kansan finished his mile in 4:20.
Paul Masoner, football star, ran a beautiful race in the low hurdles when he skimmed in the fast time of 7 seconds flat. Masoner was also one of t he favorites in the third hurdle and the third hurdle to finish.
Hargiss will stress conditioning for the next three weeks and by that time Lyle Foy, track captain, who pulled a leg muscle should be back on the cinders again. Foy surprised Hargiss at his dorm in Columbia in his running togs, but Hargiss would not permit the anxious boy to run.

by demonstrating and explaining
the fundamental blocks of his

The veteran grid mentor spent most of the initial spring session by explaining both backfield and line drills, including the motions to give the squad some idea
of the type of play that will be used.
Henry topped off practice by telling
the squad that he expects everyone
to be out every night on time for
practice, that he expects the full-

be needed in turning out a good
team next fall.

SIX STEPS TO
MORE SMOKING
PLEASURE
AGINGE—Chesterfield's mild ripe tobacco, like fine wines, are for two or more years in huge wooden casks. Here they gradu- ationally change from mildness and better taste which give millions of smokers more pleasure.
BLENDING — There is only one Chesterfield blend . . . the blend of the old and new combination of the world's best American and Turkish tobacco. Just the right proportions to make it a milder, better-smelling cigarette.
PAPER~Every Chesterfield you smoke is wrapped in *pure* cigarette paper... the finest cigarette paper made. That's another reason why Chesterfields are milder and better-tasting.
STEMMING — "Almost human" is what they say about the intercession of fingerprints in fingers picked up the tobacco, leaf by leaf and take out the stem, leaving only the mild, tender, cheese-like flesh into the making of Chesterfields.
MAKING — Almost faster than the eye can follow. Chesterfields come rolling out of the marvelous cigarette making machines. Chesterfields are always round, firm and well filled.

PACKAGING — Truly amazing are the packaging machines which can keep you air-tight, moisture-proof packages. Regardless of where you buy them, Chesterfield reaches you as fresh the day they were made.
