Various Types of "K's Given For Athletic Effort Have Significance All Their Our
FOOTBALL BASEBALL
CROSS COUNTRY TENNIS
BASKETBALL TRACK
There is no explanation forthcoming from the athletic department just why the "K's" awarded in the different branches of athletes differ so greatly in style and artistic construction. About the only solution offered to the problem is to handle it directly for the purpose of distinguishing the men who excel in one branch of athletics from those who excel in another.
If we seen the six different types of "Ks" listed above, beginning with football on the upper left, then down through baseball, cross country, basketball, track, and tennis, we see at once a prominent development from the commonplace and familiar to the exclusive and complex. And every letter in the list, as we go through it, adds just a little more to the development. Every stop is marked out and there is no missing link.
Also, the letters seem in some subtle way to be closely allied and representative of the different branches of athletics they represent. If the six letters above did not have the names of the specific athletic teams which they may represent, but instead you select the big bold and plain "K" in the upper left hand corner as the proper "K" for football?
It seems to have a peculiar composition of things related to the football man and his big, plain life. The football "K" is of a type which seems to have dispensed with the artificial curlicues, and stands hard and significant like something great and to be reckoned with.
And the other “K’s are just as distinctive of their particular sports. The lunch-backed “K of cross country seems to represent a certain skill, but also a sense with an ever ready tendency to exert some final effort. The “K's of basketball and track are formed of quick, curving and flowing lines suggesting speed and integrity; it reflects the principles that they emblemate.
Now glean at the baseball letter. With its long straight lines, and saupple, stumple body of color, doesn't it seem quite as slapable and everlasting as a “k” or “k” especially adapted to its cause. Its stout base lines at the four terminations of the letter seem to give it a foundation such as Caesar would have built for a great sports such as baseball is today.
Tennis, as it is played today, is a comparatively new sport. Also the designed "K" awarded to players of the game is now -only a few years old- and the design which stands nimble and self-supporting among his five big brothers above shows a certain close relationship to its sport. Its flexibility linked with a certain Orientaleism in design impresses one with the fact that it is a symbol of something quick in action, powerful, graceful, and all in all, a bit exclusive.
