Hurlers Needed Badly For Team
Conger Finds Lack Of Pitcher Is Principal Weakness of His 1938 Baseball Squad
The big problem which is facing Coach Ralph Conger in shaping his baseball team for spring competition is the search for a number of capable pitchers to fill this gap. Thanks to be the weakness of the sound.
Two Possibilities Appear
With the opening of the season on April 12 and 13 at Kansas State, Conger has but two lettermen, George Kloppenberg, b'sp, and James Bass, as veteran hurlers.
At present there is a possibility that Malp "Red" Dugan, c'41, may turn out to be a potential deliverer on the mound. Dugan pitched with the Kansas City Lapetinas in 1933, but developed a bad arm and has not pitched since. Another candidate for the position is Mike McNally, c'uncel, who worked for the Iola Ban Johnson team last season.
The catching stuff is very strong this year. Ferrell Anderson, ed39; veteran signal caller, will be behind the fence. Caledar walder, c'40; will act in reserve.
Lester Kappelman, c39, is working at the shortstop position and is likely to remain there. At third base are Raymond Conklin, buncl, and Raymond Napier, c40, both of whom seem to be very capable for that assignment. Bert Barnum, b39, is sent to hold down the keystone
Two Star at First
There is keen competition for the first-base position between Orman Wanamaker, b39, and Frank Komatz, b'unel, at fair pros, and Cavalerde is being held for the first in case the others fail to develop.
Pat Holcom, b39, is the letterman of the outfield who will probably combine his ability of fielding and power at the bat to hold his position. If Cadwalader does not fill the initial sac he is likely to be sent to do the hitting. The remainder of outfield positions will probably be chosen by batting power.
It it was the strength at the plaf which compensated for the pitching weakness last season, and it is Commanzoni's reason to develop a strong slugging team.
Because of the afternoon showers yesterday, no practice was held. With the field in good shape and a possibility of a cut of the squat sometime before training, will probably settle down to serious training for the next few weeks in order to round into shape for the coming Big Six competition.
New Matches Set For Golf. Tennis Teams
Scheduling of tennis and golf games with Washburn College, one of two tennis matches with Nebraska Wesleyan University of Lincoln, was announced yesterday by the college. At the same time he announced reverencing of places for the Kansas-Nebraska golf and tennis matches.
The first matches with Washburn will be at Topeka April 12, and the return matches will be played here April 29. The Nebraska West will come in June 6, and the Jayhawkers will go to Lincoln May 13.
Instead of going to Lincoln May 7 for golf and tennis matches with the Cornhuskers, the Jayhawks will have a two-day stand there at the Weston stadium against the Weasel and Nebraska crews. Nebraska will come here May 7.

Cunningham May Have Mix-up On Race Dates
Glenn Cunningham is reported to have accepted an invitation to try for a new world record in a mile run at the Los Angeles coliseum on April 24, the day following the Kansas Relays.
According to Coach H. W. Hargiss, Glenn has not given notice that he will not run at the Kansas Relays. Coach Hargiss has had letters from Glenn several times in the past few weeks, and he is certain that he will be on hand for the relays as he promised.
Cunningham could not be immediately located in New York yesterday day afternoon to settle the question of his running dates, but Dan Farris, secretary of the National A.U.A. organization, planned to run at the Kansas Relays and he assumed Glenn would make no change in those plans.

Our boy Fralle has returned to the fold, as grinning and good-natured as usual, with no signs of an extra-sized head. To us, that seems a real tribute to a great athlete. After setting the A.A.U. boys back on their heels at Denver during the past week, and practically winning the national championship for the Muleley's Fralle was voted the most valuable of the tournament." Despite this honor, his name appeared on the second all-American A.A.U. basketball team and not the first.
We are having a little difficulty in understanding such a move, but suppose it was due to the fact that Pralle was not in A.A.U. competition all season. However, the committee wouldn't have been justified in believing that Fred merely hit a "hot streak" at Derby. Derby is the ball all season under all conditions. There's no use crying over that now, but we'll always think the first team placement would have been the deserved home.
This cry which wafts on the breezes from down Kansas City wily sticks in our craw just slightly. The Kansas Citans are telling all listeners what a great basketball town their little burg is, and backing up statements by citing the Ward-Wy-antioite final at the state basketball tourney, and the A.A.U. championship Hesley team. It might be more prudent to call it a high school basketball town, but so far as the Heal-
Coach Lindsey has divided his spring footballers into squads, and is planning to hold nighty scrimmages all this week if weather permits. New uniforms are being considered—pants of a silver-gray whipeed, with dark blue jerseys adorned with red and white stripes. The helmet is pure white. Lindsey says the trend it to doll up the teams the coming year—does anyone doubt it?
ey's being Kansas City products—Pralle is from St. Louis, Mo.; Frank Growen is from Atchison; Noble from Kansas City; and so on, indefinitely.
Wolfe To Review Alumni Achievements
Achievements of widespread importance of University alumni during the past year will be featured on the alumni achievement report this spring at commencement. This is the fourth annual report of things University alumni have done and are doing.
Miss Carmine Wolfe, '03, of Topeka,
has accepted the job of giving the
report this year.
To facilitate gathering this information, a letter has been sent by the alumina office to local alumni and officers, faculty members, and other employees of the University, requesting information regarding the activities of alumni during the past year.
The alumii committee has decided to keep the number of persons mentioned each year in the future smaller than the first four reports, consequently only activities requiring importance will be mentioned.
All intramural managers be at the intramural field this afternoon at 4:30 with two or three men. Experimental baseball games will be played to determine whether the new 12-inch ball is to be used in intramural baseball this year.

What's Doing in Sports
At Other Schools
By Dole Heckendorn
Perhaps a new vogue will be set up in the recruiting of prize high school athletes, if many schools follow the example recently set by the University of North Carolina. A high school basketball star who is named to the national team is headed for the Carolina school, according to an Associated Press report. The "old man" graduates in May.
The Texas Longhorns, one of the leading intercollege baseball nines in the country, were handed a 6-4 loss by the Tulsa Oilers of the Texas League. In the second frame the Oilers beat the Steers marked up the first score, as they scored twice on the Texas Leaguers in the first inning.
Ordinarily, 46 of a point doesn't make much difference one way or another, but it meant a lot to the chances of Ted Fiegel, star Indiana U. diver, in the Big Ten swimming championship. For that was the margin that put Ray North of Northwestern in the preliminary trials ahead of Fiegel. Once in the finals, Fiegel had just as much chance of winning the diving laurels as the rest of the field.
Rocky Spicer of the Southern California Daily Trojan included Phog Allen in his column. Spicer writes, "Phog Allen, Kansas' great basketball coach, has won 22 championships in 28 years of coaching. That, my friends, is quite a record." Another mention of the Kansas mentor was found in the De Pauli "More basketball legislation may be just around the corner. A proposal to abolish the center line and place the blame on the referee may be submitted to the National Basketball Rules committee when it meets in Chicago, April 7 and 8. A question, embodying this suggestion, is contained in a questionnaire now being sent to
