Honor Teams At Banquet
A talk by "Mr. Basketball" (George Mikan) and the presentation of awards highlighted the first All Sports Banquet Monday night in the Student Union ballroom.
More than 500 people were welcomed by Chancellor Franklin D. Murphy.
Individual plaques were presented to the basketball squad by Ernie Pontius, a member of the Lawrence Chamber of Commerce Sports Committee. Pontius said that plaques for the track team would be presented later.
“Spend more time on the books. You can’t play sports all of your life” he said. Mikan then addressed Wilt Chamberlain.
Mikan, former pro great with the Minneapolis Lakers, told the audience of his many experiences in professional basketball. Mikan also stressed the importance of a college education.
"I hope you won't mind if I speak especially to you, I know you have a big decision to make. You have an obligation not only to yourself and to your parents, but to all of these people 'around you,' Mikan said.
Track coach Bill Easton presented the Julius Marks Trophies to track captains Jan Howell, Macksville, and Lowell Janzen, York, Neb. seniors. Easton also announced the election of Hal Long, Van Nuys, Calif., and Al Oarter, New Hyde Park, N.Y., juniors.
Special awards were presented to Bill Nieder and Al Oerter by the members of the track team for their work in the Olympics.

Telephone, electric-light, and sanitary systems have been initiated and harbor and road improvements are under way—a reminder that Yemen was once a highway for the world's richest traffic between the East and West.
