Golf Prospects Bright For Coming Season
KU's golf prospects are bright this year despite the loss of last year's Big Seven individual champion, Bob Richards
Depend on Sophomores "By and large," Coach Mike Chalfant said, "Our team depends on the sophomores. If they come through, we should be just as strong or stronger than last year."
Lynn Kindred, Bill Toalson and Bob Wood are the three sophomores on whom much of the success of this year's team hinges. They were freshman numeral winners last year.
Bill Sayler, senior and 2-year letterman; Jim Davies and Gene Elstun, both 1-year lettermen, return from last year's squad.
Last year the Jayhawkers finished six strokes away from the team championship which was won by Oklahoma.
Elstun Could Win
Eastin Could Win "He should be a strong contender this year." Chalfant said, "and could possibly win the title."
Elstum will take a break after the basketball season is over and will be available only for the Big Seven tournament. His competition was limited to the conference journey last year, in which he finished third.
The Kansas squad is also bolstered by the addition of Pat Reidy, junior college transfer, and Lloyd Klaus, who was a member of last year's team.
The conference playoffs are scheduled for Lincoln, Neb., on May 17-18. Chalfant said the Sooners would probably be favored to retain their crown, but Colorado and Iowa State could win if the Oklahoma golfers have a bad day.
Freshman Wins Golden Gloves
Bill Burnison, KU freshman football player from Ontario, Calif., won the novice heavyweight championship in the Golden Gloves tournament in Kansas City, Mo., Saturday night.
The 215-pound center entered the tournament "just to get into shape for spring football practice," and ended up winning all of his fights by the knockout route.
His first victim hit the canvas just 30 seconds after the opening bell.
He won his second fight by a technical knockout in the first round, and the next night flattened his opponent in 43 seconds of the second round.
He won the championship by knocking out J. C. Love of Chilicothe, Mo., in two rounds.
Burnison, who won the right to participate in the Western Championships in Chicago, turned down the trip to concentrate on his studies and spring football which begins March 15.
Another KU participant in the championships was Wesley Walker, who lost his first fight on a disputed split decision. Walker was the defending champion in the open division of the light-heavy class.
Vernon Smith, a Lawrence resident, who is going to turn professional soon, coached these men and led them through their workouts at Robinson Gymnasium.
Burnison said that he intends to defend his crown next year "just for the fun of it."

ENGINEERS
and SCIENTISTS
we'll be on the campus
Thurs.Feb.21 Fri.Feb.22
to discuss
...where you can rise to the top
Right now you're in the process of making one of the most important decisions of your life.
Your decision is important to us, too, because we are interested in engineers and scientists who want to get ahead. We're coming to the campus to give you the facts you need to judge whether Boeing can help you reach the goal you have in mind.
The fact that Boeing is an "engineers' company" is important to your success. At Boeing, you'd work with, and for, engineers—men who talk your language, understand and appreciate your work.
Boeing encourages graduate study, reimbursing full tuition and fees, plus an additional amount for incidentals. Every six months, each Boeing engineer is given a merit review—a personal opportunity for recognition and advancement. The company's steady, rapid growth assures plenty of opportunities to move ahead. At Boeing, engineers hold positions right to the top.
Personal interviews on Thurs., Feb. 21, Fri., Feb. 22 See your Placement Office for time and location
Another advantage: Boeing assignments are interesting. You'll work on such famous projects as the 707, America's first jet transport; the intercontinental B-52, the nation's principal long-range jet bomber; the supersonic BOMARC guided missile, and top-secret programs that probe beyond the frontiers of the known. At Boeing, you'll be in a young, expanding industry, one with its major growth still ahead.
So whether you plan a career in civil, mechanical, electrical, aeronautical or industrial engineering, physics or mathematics (or related fields), drop in for a person-to-person discussion about your future at Boeing.
