Jayhawker Track Prowess Lauded In Trojan Paper
Write-up Predicts Powerfu Kansas Threat in National Collegiate Meet in June
Word of the prowess of Bill Hargiss' 1934 Jayhawker track team has not been confined to the Middle West. A full column in the Southern California Daily Trojan is devoted to discussing the morris and performance of Charles Pitts, Charles Pitts, Clyde Coffman, Bob White, Elwyn Dees and Paul Harrington.
The Southern California write-up includes the following paragraph: "Kansas University, pride of the Big Six conference track teams, ranks as a strong contender for the team championship in the National College Athletic association meet to be held in the Los Angeles Coliseum June 22 and 23, since its victory in the recent league meet. Kansas scored $68\frac{1}{2}$ points in anxexing the team trophy from the defending titleholders, the Nebraska Cornhuskus, who finished second with but 54 1-3 digits."
Hall Is a Threat
Other excerpts from the same article read: "Ed Hall, victorious in both the 100 and 220 in the Big Six meet, is a decided threat for sprint honors in the national meet. In the conference meet he won by a second, in 214 seconds, to establish himself in the same class as Keisel of California, and Metcalfe of Marquette.
"Glenn Cunningham pulled the ironman stunt at the Big Six meet when he won the half-mile, mile, and two-mile runs. The fact that he is rated the standout collegiate miler in the U.S. today backs up the conclusion that he may break a couple of N.C.A.A. records in the local meet in June. He won the mile title in this meet last year, and was runner-up in the 880.
Three Good Polevaulters
"Hall re-enters the picture when the broad jump is considered. Teamed with him in this event are Coffman and consistently better the 23½-foot mark.
**Coffe Good Powerhouse.**
"Heir in, turn teams with White and Green to equip vulnerable pole vaulting trust. All three cleared 13 feet 37.8 inches in the Big Six meet."
"Two meet records were made, and each by a Kansas man. Elwyn Dees, who will be remembered as the all-American high school shot put champion in 1930 when he broke all records with the 12-pound weight of the exact meet shot put record when he issued the 15-pound ball 50 feet, 13-4 inches.
"Paul Harrington cracked the other record when he tossed the javelin 208 feet, 11 inches, marking himself as an outstanding threat for individual honors in the national meet. His nearest rival was almost 10 feet back."
Reid Cartoon Collection On Display at University

Roosevelt, Taft, and Wilson campaigns of the war and the peace in conference and subsequent eras in America and abroad. Many of the cartoons, inspired by the stories of some twenty or thirty years ago, are as applicable to events of today as any that a contemporary artist could originate.
Other prominent cartoonists from this section of the country, whose works are included in the collection are Jefferson Machamer, who was born in Belleville, and has gained success in New York. Frank Kirkpatrick, Frankkortt, and Herbert Johnson, cartoonist for the Saturday Evening Post, and a native of Lincoln, Neb.
"The prize of my collection, I think," Mr. Reid wrote Professor Flint, "is a Nust cartoon, an original. There aren't many Nast experiments in existence now and when the public realizes their value, they'll become almost priceless."
The Nast cartoon displays the surrender to General Winfield Scott Hancock of the "Solid South," "Inflation," and Tammany in the Democratic turmull of 1880. Tammany was depicted bearing the scalp of Samuel J. Tilden
"It has an interesting little sideline in that the original caption is pasted on the drawing." Mr. Reid explained. "Their son, Cyril Nast, who gave me this cartoon from the family collection, tells me that his mother frequently wrote the captions and put them on. It is interesting to note that fifty-two years after this cartoon was drawn, the same issues are appearing before us"
Also included in the collection are pastboard originals of the comic strips of Bud Fisher, Rube Goldberg, Gene Byrnes; George McManus, Billy DeBeck, George Herriman, and the late Clare Briggs, besides drawings in the original of such famous cartoonists as James *Montgomery Flagg*, Homer Davenport, Jefferson Machamer, and William Allen Rogers.
The collection is being displayed under glass in the Spooner-Thayer Museum.
*If the world finds itself** **treated awoken**, if the conditions which we regard as fundamental to our existence are changed, then we may have no reason to believe that such a kind of the good that theirs and hers have been
An original cartoon of the Harding campaign, drawn by Albert T. Reid, Kansas cartoonist, and presented by Mr. Reid to the department of journalism at the University of Kansas. This and other cartoons are on display early June at the Booner-Thayer Art Museum. (Including Sunday afternoons.)
Handball Title to Kayhawks
Independents Gain Championship After Two Matches With Betas
Playing only two matches, the Kay-hawk handball team disposed of Beta Theta Pi in the final series to claim the intramural team championship in an easy fashion. The new champions succeed the Kappa Sigma team in a convincing victory to the Betas in the semifinals this spring after going through division play undefeated.
At their first meeting, Friday afternoon, the Kayhawks won the singles, first doubles, and received a forfeit in the remaining doubles match. Curtis Packard took the court against Buckingham of the Beta Theta Tpi in the singles encounter and was victorious in straight games. Copeland and Smurr of the Kayhawks were also successful in straight games against Rickman and McMullen and scored 21-6 in both. Besides forfeiting the second doubles on Friday afternoon, the Betas also forfeited the entire second match scheduled for yesterday morning and conceded the team championship to the independent organization.
Members of the Kayhawks team are Curtis Packard, Jack Copeland, Eldon Smurr, Charles Abrams, and Paul Rapport. Bob Braden in the manager.
The Kayhawks have shown an excellent brand of handball in their spring competition. In the preliminary play by divisions, they were undefeated, conquering the Betas, Phi Delta, Theta Taus, Pi KA, Sigma Nu, and Delta Tau Delta. In the semi-final final, the champions defeated Triangle in the semifinals, with the Betas winning the other semifinal from Kamia Suma.
Bonthron Wins Slow Race
Lyman, of Stanford Breaks Shootup Record at A.A.A.A.
Philadelphia, May 25—John Lyman of Stanford won the A.A.ATP shotput today with a heave of 53 feet 2½ inches, bettering his own record of last year, and better than the accepted world's records. He has won this in practice, and Torrence of Louisiana did better than 55 feet at the Drake Relays.
Time made by Bonthron in the A.A.
A.A. 1500-meter at Philadelphia yesterday was undoubtedly affected by the heavy track, as he has made the distance in 3:54. Cunningham won the indoor 1500-meter run from Bonthron in the American championships in 1926 to set a new world's indoor record.
Bill Bonthron of Princeton defeated Gene Venzke of Pennsylvania by two yards in a slow 1500-meter race. The heavy track held the time to 3:56. Venzke had a lead of 15 yards on the back stretch of the last lap, but Bonthron came through with his famous final sprint.
On his European tour a year age Cunningham got 'out the outdoor 1500-meter run down to 3:51.6, the time he made at Budapest.

Intramural Championship Decided by Double Victory in Doubles
Victorious in both doubles matches, after dropping the singles encounter, Delta Tau Delta's tennis team won the interorganization spring championship yesterday from the Collegians. The victory represented revenge to the Delta, who lost 4-2 in de facto all of the same event last fall and lost in an identical 2-1 margin.
Bob Alfred, Collegian ace, scored the only victory for his team in the first match of the afternoon by defeating the former No. 14 man, in straight sets, 6-2 and 6-1.
The first doubles match was a long and closely contested affair, with Lloyd Roark and Horace Hedges, the Delt combination, finally edging out Phil Brighton and Alan Linley of the Collegians. The Delta Tau pair had little difficulty in running out the first set at 6-2, but after taking a 5-2 lead in the second set, weakened before an improved Collegian attack to lose 7-9. They came back strong, however, after a rest to take the deciding set, 6-2.
Jack Atkins and Bill Howard were too strong for the Collegian's second doubles pair, Bob Steele and Roy Johnson, and disposed of them in straight sets, 6-1, and 6-4. Atkins, a strong driver, was playing sensational tennis at times and had able support from his team-mate, Howard.
Both teams were undefeated in team competition this spring, having played in separate divisions in early competition. The College defeat was their first of the year, as they went through last fall's team tennis schedule and tournament without a loss. The new champions will receive a loving cup.

Holder of Shot Put Records Is Also Football Man
Dees to Head 1935 Track
Elwyn Dees, Big Six indoor and outdoor shot put champion for two successive years, and conference outdoor record holder in that event, has been elected to captain the 1935 Jayhawk track team. He was named to the position Friday evening by 18 members of the 1934 Big Six indoor and outdoor championship team.
$3.95 and up
Dea, who succeeds Glenn Cunningham as captain of the University team, and who plays a regular line position for the Jayhawker football team, halls from Lorraine, Kans. He first gained national recognition when, at the Kansas Relays interscholastic meet of 1900, he tossed the 12-pound shoe off 88 feet, then he dived and landed when still stalked. Later that same year he won the national interscholastic meet in Chicago with another shove that measured well over 58 feet.
Dees' first Big Six championship came to him at the indoor meet of 1933. Since that time he has taken his favorite event in every Big Six conference meet, and last week broke Hugh Rhea's league record with a 50 feet, $1\%$ inch push.
TWO ORCHESTRAS ENGAGED FOR ALL-UNIVERSITY PARTY
Two orchestras instead of one played for the all-University party held at the Memorial Union building last night. Dick Mills had already been engaged when Bill Phipps produced a contract signed by Lloyd Lane, varsity dance manager. The Phipps contract had not been mentioned to those in charge of the party, they said.
The misunderstanding arose when the party was scheduled to replace the regular Saturday night variety which had been planned for the same date. Phipps contract was for the postponed varsity.
