Miller of Chanute Is Making History In Athletic Field
Son of Former University Athlete Is All Around Star; Excells in Basketball
The greatest high school athlete in the history of the state is the rating toward which Rahul Mishler of Chamute, son of a student at Lafayette High School, athlete. H. Clement, C. 17, seems headed.
Coach Balley Ricketts of Paranons calls Miller the greatest high school athlete in the country. The record of the 16-4 tournament follows, pretty well bears that out:
In two years of basketball and football he has never played on a losing team.
Last year, his sophomore year, he was the outstanding basketball player in the state.
In the game for the state high school basketball championship last year between Chanute and Winfield he scored 28 points.
He was high basketball score in the Southeast Kansas Conference with 100 points scored in 6 games.
He has been an all-conference halfback for two years in football.
He has been conference champion in the pole vault for two years.
Miller first gained state-wide recognition two years ago when he led Chanute Junior High School to an undefeated season. The team turned in the unbeatable average of 60 points a game with Ralp averaging about 25 of these.
The same year while still in junior high he competed in the high school conference track meet and won the pole vault.
the fall of 1924 Miller entered sector high school. The Chanute High football team of which he was a star member sailed through its schedule without a defeat. Miller's ball carrying was almost as outstanding as his basketball playing had been and he was named on the all-appearance team at the close of the season.
Then came the basketball season and real renown for the ace of the Blue Comets, as Chanute teams are known. He copped conference scoring honors with a great average of 10.2 points a game at Utah through 13 games without defeat.
This led up to the state tournament and his greatest test. Miller tore the tournament wide open. He piled up staggering totals and most of his points came just when Chanute needed them. In the game for the state championship, he scored 107, but he can win and scored more points than the entire crack Winfield team.
During the track season Miller won the conference pole vault championship for the second straight year.
This past football season Miller again was an all-conference halfback and again Chanate was undefeated. This run was one of the springing of victories to 21 straight triumphs.
Although he is brilliant in football and track, it is in basketball that he excels. He has scored 50 points "shot him." He scores on every type of shot known to basketball and handles the ball beautifully. He seems to have steel springs in his legs, being able to jump.
Miller is 6 feet, 2 inches tall and weigh 165 pounds.

Kansas Cagers Practice On Game Fundamentals
Regular Five Goes Through
Short Workout While
Reserves Play
Reserves Play
Coal goalball, signal practice, and scrimmage was in order for the Jayhawk basketball squad yesterday in the first round. That was somewhat shorter than usual.
The first part of practice was given, over to shooting from beyond the free throw circle, shots which the men have been consistently missing lately. However, Prall, who is the long shot artist on the squad, Allen and Noble were able to make sure they were court yesterday. The Kansas men have not been able to hit the basket as easily as in previous years but are improving steadily.
The first five went through a fast signal drill, running every play in the book. Dr. Allen has been working on passing, trying to do away with any "sloppy" or poorly aimed tosses, and yesterday's signal drill saw the men throwing the ball around rapidly and often, because of an injured foot, and Holiday took his place with the first string.
Dr. Allen let the first string go early and sent the reserves through a stiff scrimage session. A "white" team composed of Holiday, Shaffer, Rogers Cox and Hilmer batted against a "red" team with Worstuth, Schmidt Stewart, and Hornstuff.
The two teams played furiously, but the whites held a decided advantage Holiday slipped through the red defense repeatedly for set-ups. Shaffer got some nice tip-in shots, and Roger connected with one beauty from near
Practice was held in the auditorium altogether to accustom the men to the new baskets which have been put in.

Big Ten Basketball Race Promises Lively Tussk
The Big Ten basketball race looms as one of the most hectic the conference has known in its long history. A combination of strong teams with terrible tendencies is apparently going to make it into a wild free-for-all championship into a wild free-for-all.
Strong But Inconsistent Teams Will Seek Championship
Purdue, Indiana, Ohio State, Illinois,
Northwestern, Chicago and Wisconsin
are all strong contenders for the title
and most of these teams have been
distinctly inconsistent. For instance, Purdue,
a contender year after year, elked out a victory by the Purdue, a contender year after year, elked out a victory by the California. About a week later Purdue went to New York City to play N.Y.U. a team which had beaten California by almost 20 points. With N.Y.U. a heavy favorite and playing on a court which it knew far better than the Middlewesterens, Purdue turned around and gave the Violet's score of 11-10 to Purdue in the Purdue player in the last minute of play played N.Y.U. from defeat.
It has been this way most of the time so far with the favorite being tossed on his car ear after time. In the most recent tennessee Ohio State trounced Wisconsin, and Iowa beat Illinois to provide oppostees with nightmares in abundance.
Givens have also carmacked the Big Ten season. Lads who stick up into the air 6 feet 5 inches or are not more present but abundant. Indiana and Michigan especially stand out in this department.
On the Shin
Denver Beats Nebraska
Denver University of the Rocky Mountain conference outspaced and outshot the University of Nebraska quintet to gain a 45 to 35 decision Tuesday night. The score.
The students of the University deserve to be congratulated for returning to school after vacation without the proverbial hangover. Hate to mention names of faculty members, but Doe Lee returned to Lawrence with a terrific cold and has not yet been able to meet his classes. He no doubt got a chance to receive a news conference at which the President caused quite draft.
The first Year resolution comes from the Forum committee. They have decided to let some speakers other than "conservatives" talk at the meetings.

It isn'tICAL to bring the Editor-in-Chief of this rag into the column, but someone must put a stop to the ducky love, or apple polishing that goes on about final time. It seems that Melvin Harlin, the chief, is also a lab instructor in Geology. To make matters worse, he has a great deal of partiality toward certain Kappa's. Let that be a lesson to you!

FIRE was raging through a Virginia village at midnight. A telephone workman sped there from his home...found the central office in danger.
In 20 minutes he reestablished communication. Next morning, the rescued switchboard was installed in new quarters . . . telephone service was resumed as usual.
Relieving the girl operator, he handled all calls...summoned help from nearby towns... 'til buildings on both sides collapsed and the telephone building caught fire. Quickly he disconnected the small switchboard...moved it to safety...improvised a telephone station in a field.
That telephone man received the Vail Medal... one of several awarded each year to Bell System employees for outstanding public service. Devotion to duty ... day by
