UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS WEDNESDAY. FEBRUARY 9. 1938 Tracksters Taper Off For Meet Dual With Cornhuskers Saturday Opens Season For Jayhawks; Squad Is Rapidly Improving A rapidly improving Jayhawk indoor track squad will begin to taper off today for its dual meet with the NCAA team at Lincoln Saturday afternoon. The welcomed let-up will be given the Kansas cinderden after a week of extensive training under the watchful eye of Coach W. H. "Bill" Hargiss, who held trial heats this week for the dashes, hurdles, 440-yard dash, 880-yard run, mile, and the two-mile run. Kansas Strong in Field Early-season indications are that Kansas will be strongest in the field events. Don Bird, Big Six champion in the pole vault, should win his event and Gordon Cluacs, who finished second in the broad jump at the conference meet last spring, should place high. The entire, squad looked good in the trials; however, the men are far from being in top condition. Coach Hargiss is apparently satisfied with the showing made by the team during the past week although he said that it needs lots of hard work to give it the final touches for competition. Many of the men were late in getting started. Shot Contest Outstanding Chet Friedland, junior shot-putter consistently heaved the 16-pound ball more than 46 feet last year and his duel with Mills of Nebraska is expected to be one of the features of the meet. In the high jump Marvin Cox, sen- ior letterman, will bid for a victory. Cox will also compete in the mile relay and possibly the low hurdles. Approximately 24 men will be selected to make the trip, but the personnel has not yet been definitely formed. The group may be by bus early Saturday morning.

Rey. Barr To Speak The Rev. Harold G. Barr, dean of the Kansas Bible College, will speak to members of the "School of Pharmacy in their work," according to the Rev. Mr. Brant plans to tell something about the history of the Kansas Bible College. Along the Sideline Elon Torrence Kansas Sports Editor Soldom has a team captured the fancy of its supporters as the much-publicized Oklahoma "boy scout" team. The team's youth, speed and amazing scoring ability, coupled with the fact that it has been a long time since Oklahoma won a major Big Six title, all have made the Sooners fans literally go wild. Saturday, 5.347 (according to the official count of the Oklahoma athletic business manager) wild-eyed, cheering fans packed the field house at Norman to see the Sooners nip the Cornhuskers 50 to 48. If this were 1929 or before-you know, back in the good old days of "a chicken in every pot and two ears in every garage"—in other words in the days of prosperity, and Kansas came up with a young team the like of the Sooners, it might the spark that would touch a drive for a field house that would accommodate the 4.500 students and still give room for the townpeople and other Kansas basketball fans. Kansas State has been bemoaning the fact that not once this year has a Wildcat athletic team conquered a Nebraska team. Hopes had been expressed that the Purple wrestling team might succeed in downing the Husker grapplers. According to a report, about 10% of hopes were realized, in a big way, for the Kansas State team won $22\frac{1}{2}$ to $4\frac{1}{2}$. There is no doubt of the need of a field house, not only for basketball but for indoor track. Then there is the need of suitable indoor quarters for the local R.O.T.C. units. But in spite of these needs, realization of the project appears to be in the far-distant future. Luisetti and his Stanford mates Other conference leaders in the various leagues throughout th e United States are: In the Big Ten, Northwestern continues to set the pace with 5 victories and 1 defeat. For not behind is the number of wins with 4 victories and a single loss. In the Rocky Mountain conference, Colorado is out in front through the efforts of "Whizzer" White and two Kansas boys. The players from the Sunflower state are Jim "Swisher" Schwartz, former star at Sacred Heart, Salina, who attended school here his freshman year, and Jack Harvey, who used to roll in the goals for Frankfort. Arkansas is the bell-wether in the Southwestern Conference. Paced by their captain, Lockard, and two nationally known football players, Jim Benton and Jack Robbins, famed as the Razorbacks combination, the Razorbacks have made short work of most of their conference opponents. In the East, Dartmouth and Cornell are tied for the lead with each showing a record of 4 victories and 1 loss. It is a pleasure to report that Bob Grubb, promising freshman gridster, whose athletic career was cut short by the necessity of a leg amputation is progressing nicely and has recovered to the point where he will return to his home tomorrow.
