K.U. Athletes Condition With Few Exceptions Says Coach Hamilton
Missouri Won Meet Because
Tiger Athletes Ran Faster
and Were Better
Rv Edgar L. Hollis
BY LEGGERT
Kansas did not lose the dual meet with Missouri Saturday because of lack of condition, according to W. O. Hamilton. The Tigers had a better team and ran faster. The Kansans are a good bunch at training, taken as a whole. However, there are two or three who do not train all of the time.
Kansas has several athletes who are world beaters when they are right, but are easy to trim when they have an off day, according to Hamilton. Ralph Rodky is a temperamental athlete, who is unbeatable when feeling right. He had an off day Saturday. When Rodky gets to thinking about his work and worries over it, he falls down in his races. Clift has been working on the track under difficulties this year, and those who know what he is giving when he comes out for track, realize his worth. If K. U. had a few more men like Clif there would be no lack of trophies in the Gym, and school spirit would be in the ascendency.
K. U. SPIRIT MUST CHANGE
Dewall, Eekel, Wetty, Heizer, Liggett and several others are giving all they have to University. The students do not appreciate the track effort put forth by these men, and until they do, K. U. will be listed as one of the "high brow" schools of the Missouri Valley Conference.
K. U. SPIRIT MUST CHANGE
When asked why they did not attend the Saturday meet several of the best known and supposedly loyal students on the Hill responded that the meet was poorly advertised, that there should have been a rally, that they did not have time to take in the meet and a hundred and one other petty alibis. Some say that track should be dropped here if the students do not show sufficient interest in such forms of athletics. It should not be dropped—the students should be educated to become interested in athletics. It is a rule would rather take in a dance than a track meet and from comparative statistics such is the case on the Hill at present.
"OLD GRAD"HAD RIGHT ATTITUDE
No wonder the "Old Grad" felt sorry for his school. There was sting in his article, but it hit and hurt. It should have hurt. He made a few minor errors in his writeup, but his attack on K. U. spirit was mild to what it should have been.
It seems that the best athletes do not have to train, but the best schools are those who do work for school spirit. A rally would be a very fitting thing to precede the Aggie meet Friday and start things on a new basis. The cheerleaders have a big year ahead of them and a hard one to face.
Landen Holds Dunakins Scoreless for Six Innings
Godding club defeated the Dunakin club Friday in a slow game by a score of 13 to 5. Landen, hurling for the Godding club, held the opposing team to an airtight score until the last inning. Brown, pitching for the Dunakins, was touched often and was relieved Kennedy in the fifth.
Golding 5 0 2 1 5 0—13
Dunakin 0 0 0 0 0 5—5
"Pat" Murphy, who has been helping W. O. Hamilton with the Kansas track team this spring will leave for western Kansas and Colorado next week where he will do some geological work under the auniplex of the geological department of the University. "Pat" has been working with the distance man this spring and Hamilton has taken care of the sprinters and the field men. For two seasons "Pat" was one of the best half milers in the Missouri Valley Conference. He expects to be away from Lawrence for more than six months.
