TO HOLD INDOOR CINDER MEET
Kansas and Aggies Will Hold Practice Track Meet Friday
Coaches to Arrange Program of 12 Events Giving New Men Experience
In order to give the new truck material a practical workout, Coaches Bill Hargis and Ward Haylett of Kansas State are arranging an indoor track meet to be held under the University stadium Friday afternoon. A program of 12 events has been arranged, including dashes of 60 and 440 yards; two burdle races at the 60-yard distance; the half mile, mile, and two-mile runs, mile relay, pole vault, shot put, and high and broad jumps.
This will be the first time for Kansas-Kansas State indoor meets to have the 60-yard distances. When first the two schools met, in 1914, the short dashes were at 20 yards and later raised to 50. Such indoor meets have been held in 1914, 1915, 1916, 1919, 1921, and 1930. Kansas has won five of the six meets.
A few of the veterans have been practicing regularly with the track team, including Elwyn Dees, who holds the Big Six outdoor shotgun record, and Richard Sklar, who is out for the shot, as is Harry Kanzatar, a new candidate.
Bob Schroeder, Themo Graves and John Nunov are out again for the season.
New material in the half and quarter includes Gordon Guise, Wade Green, John Fitzbush, and Paul McCaskill. Coutter Cunningham is giving some prospect of emulating his namesake in the mile.
Two-milers include Charles Bekert, Robert Thorpe, and W. Carpenter. Other candidates include Dale Shannon, high jump; Ray Reed, broad jump; Reed and Frank Neal, hurdles; Charles Pits, broad jump.
Rail Noble and Gordon Gray, pole vaulters, are with the basketball team at present, and Bob White has not been out this spring.

Methods of Billiard Play Will Be Demonstrated
Champion Will Give Exhibition at Union Building Tomorrow
Charles C. Peterson, holder of numbered world's records in billiards, will demonstrate his method of play to students and faculty members in the Reecreation room of the Memorial Union. There is no charge for the exhibition.
Much of the time for the show will be devoted to an instructive talk by the champion on the fundamentals of the game. There will be illustrations of his execution of many of his fancy shots throughout the talk.
Sports fans throughout the country know Peterson as "Pete." He has been credited with being one of the first to promote intercollegiate billiards. Under his guiding hand the first intercollegiate tourney was held in 1931, the University of Wisconsin winning it. The 1934 contest was won by Michigan State. With the 1935 tourney scheduled for March, it is not known yet where it will be held. The National Basketball Association of Alabama, the National Association of College Unions are backing the tour of Peterson, who is appearing before the students of Minnesota, Iowa, Missouri, Indiana, Purdue, Ohio State, Yale, Pennsylvania, Brown, Harvard, Michigan, Notre Dame, and numerous other Universities.
Billiard experts never have been successful in executing Peterson's "dollar-shot" his personal invention. In this he splits a piece of billiard chalk in two, supports a silver dollar with these two pieces of chalk, and drops the dollar back on the billiard table, the dollar returns, and it manically rests itself between the two pieces of chalk, which are approximately $ \frac{1}{2} $ inch apart. No billiard expert has ever approached Peterson's record of acquiring 100 points in 28 seconds. Another of his records was getting 50 points on an average of 100 points in 47 seconds. Peterson holds too many records even to begin to enumerate them in this article.
RUBBER BALL IS CHARM
TO IOWA STATE CYCLONES
Ames, Iowa. Feb. 5.-While loafing in Columbia before the game last Saturday night, the Cyclone squad purchased a small red, white, and blue rubber ball to use for a good luck charm to break the Missouri home floor jinx. The Iowa Staters won by a nine-point margin, and now the ball is a regular part of their equipment.
--stock went up almost one hundred per cent in the East Saturday night when he turned in one of the greatest efforts of his career to finish just a few yards behind Cunningham and well ahead of Bontonh in the Wana-maker mile. This Cunningham-Venken rivalry may become more popular this spring than the feed between Bontonh and the former Kansas star of last year.
Ebling Into Second Place
Groves Leads With 70 Points Scored in Seven Games
Groves of Kansas State now leads the Big Six scorers with 7 points guarded in seven games, but Ebling of Kansas with 6 points guarded with 6 points made in six games.
Wegner of Iowa State has the next highest average, 10.8 with 54 points made in five games.
With the season practically half over, 68 different players have entered Big Ski games, with players who have figured it out, with points ranging down to a single free throw.

SPORT SHOTS Allen Merriam, c'36
Back in a leading position in the Big Six basketball struggle, Phog Allen's counters face a real test Saturday night when the second place Cyclones from Iowa State invade Lawrence for a game which will establish the Jayhawkers in first place or set them back in a second place. The Sooners had been expected to put up a heated battle for the conference bunting, but their second defeat at Ames Monday night puts them out of the race unless both Kansas and Iowa State drop another conference game.
Wrestling, long the forgoned sport on Mount Oread, appears to be coming back this winter. After furnishing some stiff competition for the crack Kansas Angie team last semester, Coach Bill Cochran's grapplers went up to Lincoln Saturday night to take a one-sided duel meet from Nebraska. Incidentally, it was the first team vice-president of several years. Led by George Nolan, Big Six champion at 145 pounds, and Tinny Moore, 250-pound bevyweight, the Jayhawkers may pull a dark horse trick or two this season.
It looks like a rosy year for the Kansas Relays with Venzke and Cunningham already signed up for the feature mile run and Bonthron a possible entrant for the event. Venzke
and such n turn of events wouldn't hurt the Relays attendance in the least.
Ellen Brown of the Pittsburgh Teachers College and Kansas City A.C. is now maintaining the prowess of Kansas runners in intercollegiate competition. Brown ran the annual Seton Hall College games half-mile special Monday night, in Newark, N. J., in 1,58.8 feet.
ang Cunningham's mark of last year which was 1.57A.
"Cunningham missed his own indoor record of 408.4 by a safe enough margin, but a race such as this made the clocking relatively unimportant," writes Arthur J. Daley, sports editor of the New York Times. "It could not have been more thrilling had it been run in 4 minutes flat."
