Successful Track Team Is Predicted By Coaching Staff
THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
Weak Spot is in Hurdles Distance, Dashes, Jump and Pole Vaulting Squads Strong
If the University does not take the measure of the majority of the Valley track teams this season, it will not be the fault of either Coach Karl Schleeman or the personnel of the Jay-hawker squard. For K. U. has one of the strongest teams of individual stars, from the opinions of those who have seen the squad work out, that it has had in years.
K, U. has the choice of the Missouri Valley conference in dash men, middle distance men, jumpsers, and pole vaulters. Distance men are rapidly developing into an unusually strong aggregation. Norton, the phenomenal star, is probably the best weight man in the Valley; he is also good at the javelin, and he ought to take first in the shot put and discuss.
Weakest in Hurdles
Kansas is weak in the hurdles, the only weak spot in the team. However, Graham, a sophomore, although he does not come up to the standard which Kearney set last year, bids fairs to show a good many of the conference hardlers his heels in the coming meets.
Fisher is the best dash man Kansas has. In the quarter-mile, Melvin Griffin, Bernard Meidlinger, and Howard Fireball look mighty good to the spectator, and in the distance Brown and Wilson—this year's cross-country captain—continue to show up well.
Rogers, Norton, and Dillebeck ought to take first, second and third in the pole vault, although not necessarily in the order named. Norton and Poor, who have been having lots of fun break records, will pull some spectacular stunts in the high jump.
Count on Norton
Norton is undoubtedly the shining light of the Kansas squad. He is fine in the dashes, fair in the hurries and has broken school records in the high jump and pole vault. He is a remarkable man with the weights. There are some who say that Nortor will exceed Bradley, the Kansan man who held the interscholastic state championship in 1920. At the Antwerp Olympics Bradley was beaten in the five events by only one man, a Finn.
To Coach Schalademan goes much to the credit for the building up of Kana sas' formidable track squad. He he worked hard and consistently since hi advent into Kana athletics to show the Valley the worth of Kansas athletes. Although his training seems that this year he will see the ultimate result of his work on field and track in the fine showing of the Kansas squad.
Boxing Finals Postponee
Winners May Enter All-University Tournament in March
The sophomore boxing tournament which has been progressing slowly on account of the size of the classes will not be finished before the Christ mas holidays. The bouts which do not take place before the holiday will take place in the gym class immediately after vacation.
These bouts will count as the fine examination in the sophomore gym classes. Those who fail to fight when they are not receptive or incomplete in the course.
The final bouts of the tournament will not be open to the general pub lie as planned, but instead, the winners may participate in the all-Uni university tournament which will take place sometime in March.
Boost K. U, Slogan Is An Old Tradition
“Boost K. U.” is a slogan that all of us like to use. We speak of the K‘U’ spirit and have made our “Rock Chalk” ring through the air by singing it. The spirit has its spirit as not originated in the last few years as some would think.
When the Museum was built in 1902 someone thought of putting the "Rock Chalk, Jayhawk, K. U." on the building. So those pass by the Museum today can find the yel carved on the animal figures on the sides of the building just above the names of the scientists.
it begins on the south, where just above the name of Darwin is "Rock Chalk"; then on the first panel on that surface, it ends on the north-eastern 'corner' is "K. U."
FALLS AND FEINTS
Irene Castle hasn't anything on Abella.
Montgomery got wined quicker than Merrill. But then, Monty has been running the Kansas while Merril has been running the cross-country.
Tommy Murphy showed both foot work and hardwork; it's a great comination in boxing.
Murphy asked the crowd what he would do if it was walking down the street and some rowly swore before a lady. He was trying to impress upon the spectators the value of loving.
And then someone called out, "I'd get a policeman."
Wyatt must have a pivot neck. He squirmed out of head-scissors like an eel.
Ross' pupil showed him a few tricks of the trade. The older man was winded, at least, when the bell rang.
And after he recovered his breath, he said he didn't think there was a

Wiedemann's
man in the University who could put Sparrowhawk on his back. Which is something of a compliment.
These tumblers rather surprised the crowd with their prowers. Have they been hiding their light under a bushel. Let's have some more of them during the halves in the coming basketball games.
Norton, Graham, and Poor did well. However, Poor was far from being it. He outjumped the other two.
Long John Wulf initiated the court season by gently knocking down one of the doors in the east end of the gym. At the end of the first half the freshman were on the varisty six with one down to make it in.
Their service was entirely gratitude, and was given in behalf of the education of the crowd in boxing and wrestling.
Eustace and Murphy deserve credit for donating their time to the entertainment of Hill and Lawrence folk.
Which is a reminder that Eustace, the busky Kansas wrestler, meets Zybsky, the Pole, on December 29 in Kansas City.
Well, if Lawrence didn't get educated on the finer points of the game last night, it simply refuses to take on any education. Doctor Allen can hear Lawrence, the Hill, and his friends converse another Sport Night next year.
Friday, December 15, will be the date of distribution for the Graduate Magazine. Much of the contents will relate to proposed University of Kansas appropriations, and U. radio programs.
We wish our K. U. friends to know they have our best wishes for a pleasant vacation, a Merry Xmas and a Prosperous New Year.
