UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS
THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 23. 1933

This is my vote for a niche on the Kansas campus being turned over to Glen Cunningham, the Kansas milker who has sent the name of Kansas from his home in Wichita. He last summer when the modest (and I mean just that—ask Chancellor Lindley, Bill Hargas, Brutus Hamilton) Kansas milker won third place on the national team. He was found to place, a howl from the East was heard all the way out to California.
Led by Grantland Rice, the ace writers of the present day, Eastern sports authorities said that Venkel had an off day in the trials and the then unknown Glenn Cunningham, who had been in the trials, which was the last playoff game. Uncle Sam's mike team, should give his place on the team to Venkel, so that the U. S. could make a better showing in the final games. Those sport writers were not bashful about letting the daily rug get their thoughts and feelings of Kansas, including myself fairly burned up when they read the story.
But it did not bother Glenn any as he went ahead to take four place in the international mile race, being the first American to finish. You would have thought that this would have made those Eastern sport writers keep their tongues from wagging in the future about Glenn's running.
When the Eastern indoor race starts, Glenwil was invited to participate because they couldn't leave the best mile in the U. S. out of them. But do you think that the Eastern papers talked about this best miler from Kansas. Don't be foolish—all the Eastern papers could think of was that Venable would be able to avenge his old final trials last summer at Palo Alto and we were Ohioatic committee that they were right about Venable.
It is now a matter of record that Cunningham took Verenke into camp on two consecutive mile races and then stepped out to show that he could compete with his 300-mile one distance, by winning an 800-mile run against the best in the country.
After the first race the Naioma Amateur Union announced its United States team to tour Europe and despite the fact that Cunningham had been selected for the Womankeeper, the Wemmickian was picked to represent Uncle Sam in the mile. It is no "sour grapes" theory to say that the Kansan is better to be left at home because a trip like that might run even a good man.
It is a series of one day stands, strange means of transportation, strange food, and everything new so that it may mean rain to a runner like Cunningham who has not reached his full development. And Cunningham will have opportunities next year to test track sports authorities will not be able to leave him off any United States track teams.
Now I am down to my most important point and that is to take one swan in those Eastern sport writers and in one particular-Granland Rice. Most people have never broken until he twice defeated Venzele this month and Rice haven’t done it yet.
Rice picks a man in most sport events and boosts him no matter what happens. Rice had personal interviews with Venzie and taking a liking to him started to be his greatest booster. When Venzie failed to make the Olympic team, he told the Penn men telling how he had an off day in the trials. Since the Olympics he has not said much about the mile but Wednesday of this week his column came out once again on the mile run and it was devoted not to Cunningham whose name is on the tip of Venzie's hat. He has defeated-Gene Venzie. Those of you who read that column know that he mentioned Cunningham's latest victories only once and devoted the rest of his column trying to explain Venzie's showing this year. Allow me to quote from his book: "I can see how we need to see how he works his way out of the slump that now holds him."
So summing it all up from Rice's columns one would gather that Veneka has been in a slump ever since last summer and Cunningham has been ruthless for Veneka. Don't rush readers, it won't be long until the next joke appears.
Send the Daily Kansan home.

Harrington and Johnson Rest as Coach Allen Prepares for Aggie Tilt
URIE AND CURD PLAY
With Bill Johnson and Paul Herturring, first string center and forward, taking a three-day layoff from practice under orders of Couch Forrest C. Allen, the Jayhawkers will go through another workout this afternoon in preparation for their crucial Big Six game with Kansas State at Manhattan on Tuesday. The expected to report for the final practice tomorrow night, although Dr. Allen indicated earlier in the week that they might not start against the Aggies.
Aggies Going Strong
Saturday night's game will determine just what chance the Jayhawkers have for the conference championship. A victory over Coach Coachsan't team would earn for Kansas the right to meet the Oklahoma Sooners here next week for the title. The two teams are playing in the Big Ten, six victories and two defenses each, with Missouri in third place, a game and a half behind the pace makers.
That Kansas State will not prove an easy fee for the Jawahriers is indicated by the fact that the Ames have won their last four conference games without a single setback, climbing from 4-1 to 2-1. Coach Couch has a team of husky veterans that failed to strike its stride in time to remain in the championship running, Dalton, Skradski and Boyd have been playing a brand of basketball in recent encounters that forecents on the game when the team goes to Aarville.
Uric and Curd See Action
With Harrington and Johnson out of the lineup, Coach Allen this week has shifted Dick Wells to center, and has been using two sophomores, Ray Urie and Bob Curt, at forwards. These two men will undoubtedly see action Saturday midnight and the Kansas coach has joined in with defensive and defensive combinations all week.
The possibility of a three-way tie for conference honors is seen if Kansas should leave to Kansas State and then come back to defeat Oklahoma next week. Missouri, by winning the remainder of her games, could finish the season with seven victories and three losses. Oklahoma to defeat Nebraska in the final game of the season a week from Saturday to share the honors.

Wildcat Quintet Battles for Third Place Position
layhawker Game Saturday Will End Home Season for Agries
Manhattan, Feb. 23 — (Special — There will be no anti-clinic in the Kansas State College basketball season, even though the early-season slump put the Wildcats out of all but a mathematical chance for the conference victory here Saturday night not only ends the home season, but comes after the Wildcats have come up out of the conference cellar with four consecutive victories after four consecutive defeats and have a chance to finish in the up-and-coming finals. The University's team is much stronger than in the early season, when at least one of Kansas State's victories was obtained simply by concentrating on Harrington and Johnson. Wells, Schaikos, Gray, and other members of the team were making working things, making the team a 5-man rather than a 2-man threat.
Kansas State likewise has become very much a 5-man team team in its recent games. In the past five contests, four in the conference and one out, and all K. S. C. victories, Hugh Powell scored. Scoring among other regulars found Boidy with 27 points, Dalton with 24, Breen 22 and Captain Skradski 19. Skradski was one of the first five in the conference at mid-season, but sacrificed his chance at individual honors in the team's teams' defense from a award position.
After the Kansas game, Kansas State meets one more conference opponent, Missouri, at Columbia, on March 4. This game may decide whether Tiger or Wildcat will occupy third place in the final Big Six standings, though at the end of the season,ference once the Tigers still have a good chance to finish in a tie for first.
