Sunnyside Toddlers May Get Choice Seats
The kids in Sunnyside may sit on tricycles outside their sideloops two years from now and hold 50-yard line seats to KU intranural football games.
Today's burr-headed, sports-loving toddlers there will be cycle-seated spectators after the University intramural field is expanded 450 feet to the east.
It is likely that the playground will be extended to include the area between the present field and Illinois Street where the Central Sunnyside Apartments stood two years ago. The expansion will be made just in time for the kids to cheer on the men's football teams if what Keith Lawton KU director of physical plant operations, said recently comes true.
"The University hopes to make additional playground areas out of these Sunnyside grounds in two years."
But the Sunnyside kids have a few running blocks to level off before they get their choice spots for gameviewing. It may take many months to get such an expansion plan set and much more time if legislators don't approve the appropriations for the project. If this kind of legislation interference occurs, the kids may miss their 1952 intramural football contests altogether. Lawton said.
Mr. Lawton suggested a second territory of possible interference. He said the playground expansion idea is not one on the top of the priority lists of future improvements on campus.
Landscape designers are now working on a new site plan for the Museum of Natural History among other projects for more academic extension than that of an intramural field, he/said. When these designers do get to the playground expansion project, they will have to draw up plans for terracing the plots involved
The sloping plot had worked all right for/ the Central Sunnyside Apartments, which were built in 1946. But such a sloping area would be worthless as an intramural field because water erosion would cause ruts and unfair conditions for competition, Mr. Lawton said.
A later victory over the race for designers and over the terracing may mean sidewalk seats for the kids for soccer games. Interested groups usually play soccer in the spring after the field hockey competition.
Indefinite plans for the once Sunnyside a are call for academic buildings there after it is used for intramurals.
But by that indefinite time today's Sunnyside juniors will probably be in their teens—and without tricycles. The kids' goal now is that sidewalk sideline section. They're on the opponents' 35-yard line now.
On 12 New Union Alleys KU Bowlers Live Modern
By Carrie Edwards
KU bowlers are striking out in modern style in the Kansas Union's recently completed bowling section which cost approximately $157,200. The mounting use of these 12 lanes indicates students like to live modern — at least when it comes to lane and gutter facilities.
Bowling Business Doubled
Bowling business at the Union has doubled on the new lanes as compared with the use of the eight-laned section used until this fall, according to Bascom C. Fearing, manager of the Union Recreation Center. Before the Union was built students had no campus bowling facilities.
The major improvement in the minds of most students who have taken KU bowling courses is in the form of automatic pin-setting machines — $97,200 worth of them.
Previously each person in each class had been required to set pins for the rest of the class every third meeting. Junior high school aged pin-seters hired to work late afternoons and evenings, had been in school during the KU bowling classes. The University students and Mr. Fearing, their teacher, had preferred to have classes before 4 p.m.
Intramural bowling leagues were generally scheduled to begin at 4 p.m.
Although the student pin-setting ordeal has been overcome as an anti-inducement factor, the bowling leagues appear to have gained in popularity more than the classes. And within the gains the women have the lead over the men.
Three Leagues for Women
There are three women's leagues this year of six teams each. Each team consists of five members. Last year only four women played on every team and there were only two leagues rolled the balls.
This year's men's bowling teams, although the same in number as
those in leagues last year, have five men each rather than the four-man companies of last year.
He said the classes have increased in size only slightly since last year. He has 84 enrolled in six classes. He said:
"This is pretty good attendancewise, although other schools have larger bowling classes. At many other universities bowling classes are required of physical education majors. The class attendance in the KU bowling courses is the result primarily of sport interest, and definitely not of requirements."
This increase in interest in bowling is the major reason Mr. Fearing gives for the expanded business from public friends and dates in the new bowling section.
"Undoubtedly the newness of the lanes has some bearing too on attracting people to the lanes," Mr. Fearing said.
bers of the varsity bowling team, are fast enough to appear to come out ahead of charges made on a time-system basis rather than the game scale of last year.
"The fact that we can see the outside from glassed windows makes the place look better than last year's section that seemed like a big hole in the Union basement. Our capacity to take care of any bowlers at almost any time also helps business."

Figuring 35 cents in the value of each line and that six rather slow lines may be rolled in one hour on one lane, Mr. Fearing is charging $2.10 a lane per hour. The varsity and fast bowlers can usually bowl more than si lines an hour and thus seem to save.
Leagues this year are set for 4 6:30 and 9 p.m. on weekdays and at 9 p.m. on Sundays. Classes are field on weekday mornings. But any student may bowl any time the section is open. This year's policy is never to fill all the lines simultaneously with leagues or classes.
The hours in which students may try to beat the $2.10 charge are: 8 a.m.-11:30 p.m. daily except Sunday when it is open 1 to 11:30 p.m.
