Announces Relay Plans
Henry S ay's Eligibility
Will Be Stressed This
· Year by Committee
More attention will be paid to eligibility of contestants in the Sixteenth Annual Kansas Relays, according to an announcement yesterday by Gwinn Henry, director of athletics and director of the Relays. The announcement came hand-in-hand with the publication of the complete program for the Relays, which will be held April 23.
Make Announcements Soon
No change is being made, Mr. Henry explained, except to take steps which will insure proper matching of contestants. Heretofore, competition in the University class relays and special events, which were open for institutions observing the three-year rule, could also be entered by institutions not using the three-year rule. The three-year rule prevents freshmen from competing in athletic events at most universities and some colleges.
New Rule for College Entrants
for college students. College competition will be open to institutions under the eligibility of their own conferences, but this year, for college entrants desiring to compete in the university classes, it will be necessary to submit academic and participation records to establish eligibility. This will prevent freshmen from competing in special events or university class re-lays, and fourth-year men, if they participate as athletic team members their freshman year, will also be prevented from participating these events.
Preliminary announcements will be made within a week or 10 days and entry blanks will be sent out during the session. The Relays program will include:
University class relays—quarter-mile, half-mile, 1-mile, 2-mile, 4-man team races; distance medley race; 480-yard stadium hurdle relay.
The decathlon, under the A.A.U. eligibility rules, will again be a feature of the Relays.
Kansas City, Mo., high school-sprint medley.
Special event—100-yard, 120-yard high hurdles, 1,500-meter run, 3,000-meter steeplechase, shot put, duathlon, jumping high jump, broad jump, and pole vault.
Junior college relays—mile, sprin medley.
College class relays—half-mile 1-mile. 2-mile. distance medley.
The 3000-meter steeplechase is a hold-over from Olympic years, but is especially popular with spectacle and excellent contenders last year.
Alumna Displays Exhibit of Art Work
Miss Laura E. Lockwood, 91, professor emeritus at Wellesley College in Wellesley, Mass., displayed an exhibit of art work which she had done in her space time, according to a re-creation attested at the Alumni office yesterday.
Miss Lockwood started her hobby some two years ago, and has since taken work under Charles Wood-bury at Orgnuult.
The exhibit consisted mostly of studies in rocks and surfs, fish houses and tidal rivers. The display was on campus at Wellesley College on the campus of Wellesley College.
Oklahoma Sure of 10-Day Cage Lead
Standings of the Teams:
W L W. Pct. P OP
Oklahoma 2 0 1,000 97 72
Kansas 3 1 750 147 119
Missouri 1 2 333 87 149

Oklahoma is sure of the top perch in the Big Six basketball race for at least ten days, since that school has no conference game scheduled until one with Kansas State Jan. 31. On the other hand, the three-way tie for third, involving Missouri, Kansas State, and Iowa State, is due to be broken tonight when Iowa State and Missouri meet at Columbia, and a further change in the standings is certain when Kansas State and Nebraska meet at Lincoln.
Oklahoma has been showing the greatest scoring punch, with an average of 48.5 points per game, with Kansas second with 36.75, Nebraska, with opponents held to 27, and Missouri, with a defense record of 28 points, for the average opponent, show best defense, with Kansas in close with opponents held to a 29-point average.
Oklahoma, with all its scoring, has permitted opponents to pile up at a average of 36 points.

--if they believe Ralph Miller will be competing in Big Six play next year. Of course we can see why Mr. Partner would desire a thing to come to pass, but we fail to be convinced that the conference solons could pass upon such a grossly unfair course, of action. Not only would it be a blow to Kansas athletes, but it would hit hard at every school in the Big Six. Miller promises to become one of the most colorful all-around athletes in the history of the Big Six, and should be a great aid to the prestige of the conference and also an aid to the box office of every Big Six school.

Chicago Will Allow 'March of Time' Film
The censors harned the film yesterday on grounds that it is unfair. The newsreel shows labor camp scenes and activities of a German-American band in the United States. Chicago civil liberties committee, which threatened "to appeal to federal courts if necessary."
Allman, after attending a private showing of the film, said he found "nothing objectionable" in it.
Officials of R.K.O. Film company, distributor of March of Time, said the picture will be released for showing in Chicago theaters immediately.

For the test, a one-half unit gas furnace is being installed. If this proves satisfactory, four complete full-unit furnaces will be installed and put into use. The heating system, even though it should prove successful, is not expected to supply the indoor track with much heat. The purpose of the system merely is to take the chill out of the air, thus providing for more ideal training conditions.
Facilities for indoor training of the Jayhawk track man under the east stadium are expected to be greatly improved in test installation heating systems.
The problem of proper ventilation, which always arises with gas heating, will be solved quite easily. The outside doors of the stadium, which by no means are weatherproof, will allow sufficient air to enter the stadium to do sway with the installation of a ventilating system.
May Heat Indoor Track
"We do not need to worry about having enough fresh air," said Coach "Bill Hargas recently. 'The air will be fine, but big doors will take care of that."
Pulled muscles for the Jayhawk-ers will be kept at a minimum as the heated air will keep the ground from freezing, thus providing a better footing for the track men. The problem of lungs burning from the rapid intake of cold air after a race will also be minimized.
T est Furnace Installed May Lead to Permanent Gas Units
Loyalists Evacuate Teruel
The addition of a heating system is expected to make an already good Jayhawkder indoor track one of the best from the competitor's standpoint. Not only will heat be available in cold weather, but also when the temperature under the stadium, even though the conditions are warm outside.
Saragoa, Spain, Jan. 20, —(UP)—National field headquarters reported tonight that the Loyalists were evacuated shell-rucked Teruel after a battle with trench knives and bayonets that carried Nationalist infantry to within a mile of the city's northern gates.
The Jayhawkers are now preparing for their first indoor meet of the season against Nebraska, to be held at Lincoln Feb. 12.
From all reports that game down at Columbia must have been a "dilly." Doctor Allen quoted Chester Brewer, former athletic director at Missouri, as saying the game, at least the first half, presented the best performance of the Tiger and the Jayhawk that had been seen for several years.

Kansas played cool and intelligent basketball, according to *Phog*. He also warned that Missouri is on the upgrade in basketball, and a renewal of the bitter court rivalry that used to pack the old gym and the new auditorium may be seen in the not-distant future.
An interesting angle on the game is the fact that three former Missouri high school stars played very important parts in downing their state university's team. Praile was an all-state man on the Beamont (St. Louis) team which was Missouri champion in 1933. Carl Johnson was a regular on the Northeast High (Kansas City)队 that won the 1935 Missouri championship. Golay was the high-scoring man on the Warrenshburg team that capped third place in the same tournament.
These three men all played great floor games, and together made a total of 15 points. On the other hand, there was one Kansas lads playing on the Missouri team. That is Caprine, sophomore center, who failed to score. Looks as if Kansas got the best of the exchange.
Stanford has fallen! Southern California tripped Lusenti his and made 49-18, for a big upset in the Pacific Coast conference. It occurred on the second night of a two-game series between the two schools.
San Francisco papers gave an ex-planation for the defeat in the fact that Luisetti received a cut over one eye the first night that hammered him in the second game. To prove their point they showed that the high-scoring Stanford center made 10 field goals out of 23 tries in the first game, and only 6 out of 26 in the second game. Yes, at least around here, it is rather poor shooting when a man gets only 6 field goals in one game. (Just give Phlog one or two '6-goal men and see if he turns them dawn.)
We see where Dan Partner, famed for the rather venomous verbage in his column toward anything resembling him, says fans have another think coming
Florell Suffers
Ailment at Columbia
Loren Florrell, b'39, member of the varsity basketball squad, who was stricter with an attack of stomach pains while warming up for the Missouri game Wednesday night, returned with the team to Lawrence and was able to take a final yester-day.
Believed to be suffering from an appendicitis attack, Florrell was rushed to the Missouri student hospital, where physicians said the pains were caused by a light case of intestinal influenza.
Naval Officers Plan New Battleships
Washington, Jan. 29—(UP)—Plans for construction of the most powerful battleships ever floated, weighing more than 40,000 tons each and armed with 18-inch guns, are being considered by high naval officials as America's answer to aggressor powers, it was learned today.
Officials refused to comment on this plan of national defense, but some congressional quarters which have been co-operating closely with President Roosevelt and naval and war offices indicated the plans might be applicable to the two battleships authorized in the 1939 navy appropriation bill now being debated by the House.
Construction of these super-dreadnaughts to replace obsolete first-line fighting ships would involve abandonment of limitations in the 1936 naval treaty, which restricted capital ships to 35,000 tons.
Chico, Calif. — (UP) – Housewives know that prunes soaked in water swell, and now California prune growers know it, too. During the California floods, a large barn, filled with prunes, was swept several feet deep when they were exposed by prunes swelled until suddenly, with a terrific explosion, the barn burst.

Fast Basketball Injures Health
Evanston, Ill., Jan. 20—(UP) —Diacus Hobart, Northwestern University team physician, said tonight experiments at Northwestern dis- tinguished the ability of kbasketball rules stimulate hearts of players to a dangerous degree.
Doctor Hobart, who checked the hearts of new players after two Big Ten games, said he found the normal beat of 60 to 90 increased to 141 bats.
"I'm no heart specialist," he said, "but even these sketch experiments indicate that this game is too fast for most boys.
Doctor Hobart said he made his investigation on advice of the trainer Carl Erickson, to see if players actually were over-exerted.
"I think the old rules, in which there was a center jump after field goals, was plenty fast even for University men."
"After racing for 40 minutes or so the count of most players was 105. In one case it mounted to 144. Some can stand more than others, but if over-stimulation continues for a great length of time these惩毒s high school and college heart muscles may become weakened with serious results."
experiments were far from complete He has no figures for tests of games under the old rules.
The physician admitted that his
"If these rules are to be continued there ought to be more time-out periods," Hobart said. "That seems to be the only solution."
