PAGE FOUR UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS SUNDAY, MARCH 19, 1933 Eastern Officials Acclaim Prowess of Kansas Runner Cunningham Is New King of American Milers Since Defeat of Venzke "Glem Cunningham, of the University of Kansas, clearly established his right to the title of King of America's milers." The New York Herald recently published this item in telling of the Knights of Columbus track and field games at Madison Square Garden in New York. 'A GREAT COMPETITOR' Likes Strong Competition An article in the "Amateur Athlete," by Brutus Hamilton, former Kansas track coach, who is now coaching at the University of California, predicts Cunningham to set some records that will stand for some time to come. "He is distinctly a competitive runner," says Hamilton, "and can be counted on for his best performances when the competition is the strongest. He was also indoor records in the mule unless forced to do so. His very able coach, H. W. Hargiss, has not pointed him for the indoor season. He is taking these races in his stride and will probably not be knocked out until late spring or early summer. "That Cunningham is the strongest miler ever to step on a track there is little doubt. He is one of the strongest men in America at his weight. His great strength, his courageous attitude, his determination, and his determination make up for his lack of normal legs." Immortal of American Track Eastern sports writers have proved that Glenn Cunningham high honors and one has admitted that he is one of the "trock immortals" of America. This was a momentous occasion for the Boston Evening Transcrip "I classify Cunningham as one of the immortals of American racing without fear of successful contradiction," says Foster, who won the six fastest miles recorded in the history of American competition. Cunningham has proved conclusively it was no mistake that he took Venzke in tow and forced him to run the winter the stocky Kansan has beaten Venzke and others. The sting of defeat which he suffered when Venzke beat him in the National A. A. race has entirely disappeared."
