K. U. Track Squad Expected to Win From Easterners
Kansas Stars Have Made An Enviable Record in Several Indoor Meets.
The Kansas track team after overwhelming the Missouri team in the annual dual meet, will have an opportunity to win several honors from the NCAA Division I championship the Kansas RLies, to be held here April 21. The showing that this K. U. stars made at the Illinois carnival and in the meet with Missouri indicates that Kansas has one of the best balanced traded teams in the country.
Emerson Norton, who won the all-round championship at Urbana, will enter for Kansas, and is doped to high in several of the field events.
Norton Doped to Equal Thorpe Norton is the first all-round man since the days of Jim Thorpe, the Carlisle Indian who captured all the meets from 1907 till 1912, who has a chance of equalling that athlete's record. Thorpe was the greatest man the world has ever produced and the records that he made have never been approached since.
Norton is not as good a distance man as Thorpe was, but he far excels him in the pole vault, and the two men are about equal in the high jump. But Norton and Thorpe, with and dashes. "With two more years' improvement, we may expect Norton to wrest from Thorpe his long unattainable record as the wonder all-round athlete of the world," said Karl Wimmer, head coach track, recently.
Poor Best High Jumper in West
In the relays, Kansas has three
teams that are as good as any that
the school has ever produced, and
with from three to six men trying
out for every position. Coach Schalick
is one of the best players it may
all the time for places if not for
firsts in the relays.
Tom Poor is the class of the west in the high jump, with ability to make six feet four inches before the Relays. He is developing rapidly and should break the record next year, if not this. Merwin Graham, In the bread jump, is second only to Katherine Twenty-five feet in that event. Graham is also a hurdler, and should place in several meets.
JAYHAWK TWITTER
The following clipping was received in my mail Monday. It is from the Nebraska State Journal of a recent date and says for itself:
"Following the Missouri-Kansas game at Lawrence Wednesday night, in which the Jayhawks took undisputed championship, Lawrence correspondents broadcast what they believed to be a record. They thought Kansas was the only basketball team with an offseason conference season undefined.
"The Journal printed a special dispatch to this effect, and it called forth a correction from Ralph Theisen, one of the members of the 1916 Nebraska basketball team. "You look through the 1918 files and see that the players are in good conference state," Mr. Theisen suggested. We did. They did.
"The Huskers won fourteen games that season which included all conference contests scheduled. Therefore, Kansas shares with Nebraska the record of having the only under-18 conference win organized in 1807.
"Members of the 1916 Cornhusn
team were Dick Rutherford, Henry
Campbell, Ralph Theisen, forwards;
Nelson and Carl Shields, center;
Jimmy Gardner, Ted Riddell and Ed
guards, hugs.
Kansas has one more indoor meet scheduled before the outdoor season upends with a meeting with Oklahoma at Lawrence April 14. The Missouri Valley Conference indoor meet will be held in Kansas City on March 24. Let's all go down and help the team demonstrate that Kansas owns the Valley.

High School Athletes to See Wrestling Meet
Athletes of Kansas high schools will get a chance to witness an inter-collegiate wrestling meet while they are here for the state basketball tournament next Friday and Saturday. G. B. Patrick, head wrestling coach, has announced that the Washington University team will be at Washington University team here Friday afternoon at 4. This will come during an intermission of the tournament.
"The Kansas" and Washington teams should be pretty evenly matched," said Coach Andy "and I think we can agree that meet the team has had. We hope by this match to interest the high school athletes and coaches so that in the future we may have wrestling as a high school sport as they do in Iowa."
"Medals May be Given Winners in Wrestling Tourney," says Patrick
Purpose of Meet to Discover New Material For Future Wrestling Teams
"Gold medals will be given to the winners and probably the runners up in the wrestling tournament," said G. B. Patrick this morning, "if enough interest is shown to make battle for high honors interesting. So far, there are only one or two signed up in a few classes and none in some."
The time limit for entrance has been extended from Monday noon to Wednesday night, as few have been allowed in the gymnasium must make weight by Thursday noon, according to Patrick. The preliminaries for the boxing and wrestling will be fought March 19, and the finals March 28, just before the Easter break.
One of the purposes of this tournament is to discover new material for the wrestling team next year. Also, if any high class boxing is shown there may be a fistic squid in 1024.
Everyone is eligible to enter except the variety wrestlers, who may, however, enter in the pugilistic scrap. The seven grapplers who are now on the team will take charge of entries of their respective schools.
Some of the entries in the wrestling so far are Sparrowhawk, Isner, Glinkman, Stough, Fearing, and Merrill. In the boxing are Ajabra, Jordan, O'Keeffe, Morgan, Stough, and Merte. There more entries come some of these men will be the championship title without working for it.

Elliott, for a third of a century, has been a mail carrier of Lawrence, has been picked as the author of *Line in Line* to the Golden Rule Magazine, is a sturdy, pace-making type of humanity, who embodies in his character practically all that is good and important in our great American civilization.

Lawrence Mail Carrier Chosen As Great American by Tests of Work, Leisure, Faith and Service
Phi Alpha Delta and Pi Upsilon met their Waterloo last night at the hands of Sigma Alpha Epsilon and Phi Kappa respectively. The first game in which Sigma Alpha Epsilon and Phi Alpha Delta tangled resulted in the decisive victory for the Sig Alpha with a score of 19-4.
Teams Meet in Semi-Finals
The contest between Phi Kappa and PI Upsilon was a much faster game, with good playing on the part of both teams. For the first half the score was close for a large part of the time. At the beginning of the second period, Joe Bloomer and his henchmen turned loose and developed a lead which PI Upsilon was unable to overcome. The result was 3-5 in favor of the Phi Kappas.
Sig Alphas and Phi Kappas Only Undefeated Squads
This conclusion was reached after Mr. Elliott had been tested and had passed the four-fold test of work, leisure, faith, and service. In all these tests he passed A1 and was then chosen as The Great Picnic. At the age of nineteen, Mr. Elliott stared at foot, chiefly on foot, to travel 150,000 miles, and continued this journey for thirty-three years, carrying a mail sack on his shoulder. First of all, Mr. Elliott is an industrialist. He proceeds as if by the clock always on time, yet never under the whip. "He is so regular," writes Mr. McKeever of the Golden Rule Magazine, "that you may stop
Thus far the Sig Alphs and Phi Kappas are the only undefeated teams in the intra-mural conferences. The game between these two teams for next Wednesday night promises to be a good one.

In his lecture moments he is with an artist who creates a suburban garden has ample shade, a large garden, and a poultry lot, all of which breaks the monotony of delivering mail by giving him other things to do.
On his daily call to the homes of Lawrence, Mr. Elliott comes in intact with many people. He has a good word for all and divides his own small bounty with the needy ones. His service to the people to whom he gives advice is but humane, and he is always giving help to those who need it.
Not only is he a friend to those on his route, but to the men who are his fellow workers, and his influence all who come in contact with him.
