He said: "No dudes you want, but you will have to turn back many pages in the annals of history to find an athletic spirit equal to that at K. 1." With keen interest I have watched the various contents in football basketball, track, and wrestling头 at the University of Kansas that characterize this I am in love with—nimely the spirit of real men, the fightin', spirit, the 'never quit' attitude. I was no surprise to me when I announced the boxing tournament, and that I was surprised and at 'en' spirit what was seen in the tranches, pre- reads here."
