For a man who is observing his 72nd birthday today, Dr. Forrest C. (Phog) Allen has a lot of young ideas.
JULIA ANN HERRICK
and chairman of the Homecoming queens committee, said the queen will probably appear on some radio and television shows during the week.
When Dr. Allen retired June 30, 1956, after 39 years as head basketball coach at KU, he said he saw no rocking chairs in his future.
"I'm having a picnic." he said Sunday night, "I'm having more fun than I ever had."
Dr. Allen hasn't been sitting since the Board of Regents turned down his request for an additional year so he could coach Wilt Chamberlain. Ask him about his new work and his voice takes on the quality of a 21-year-old who has never had a taste of fame.
Last spring Dr. Allen returned to his original profession as an osteopathic physician when he opened an office in Lawrence with his son
Has Lawrence Office
Dr. Allen has been out of the limelight in recent months, but
Add to this a busy speaking schedule and a trip to the golf course about three times a week and he has a schedule that would frighten many younger men. Dr. Allen hinted that he's looking for more things to do.
Milton Allen, a Lawrence attorney. Television viewers in this area share in his sports experience through The Phog Allen Show every Thursday afternoon.
His most recent venture is the opening of the Phog Allen Health Center, Inc., in Kansas City for conditioning business men. Dr. Allen is chairman of the board of directors of the center.
He'll Start Victory Drive
he still has all the fire he showed as one of the most colorful and controversial sports figures in America.
He'll Start the Drive.
Allie will decide the drive for a KU Homecoming victory over Missouri when he speaks to the Lawrence Quarterback Club tonight.
"Every man needs physical exercise. It doesn't have to be violent. Look at the Englishman and his morning constitutional. Harry Truman knows it's valuable but not many other Americans do."
Some other Allen philosophy on his birthday:
He says he doesn't miss coaching because he doesn't have time to think about it. He's just too busy.
"A lot of men got old coaching basketball. I didn't because I always regarded it as recreation. It was just fun as far as I was concerned."
"Don't worry too much."
"Notre Dame proved that games aren't always won on the field. They felt they were playing at Oklahoma long before they were there."
The queen was selected Friday night by judges and the three finalists were announced Saturday. The queen's identity was withheld until the rally today. Miss Johnson's attendants are Julia Herrick, Kansas City, Kan, sophomore, a member of Alpha Chi Omega sorority, and Annette Willis, Wichita sophomore, a member of Pi Beta Phi sorority. Miss Johnson is a member of Gamma Phi Beta sorority.
Mo. senior, was announced 1957 12:45 p.m. today by Bob Billings, President.
The queen's schedule for the week includes an appearance at a KU alumni meeting in Kansas City, Mo. Thursday night, where Chancellor Franklin D. Murphy and the deans of each school will be present,
Saturday morning she will be present at a buffet luncheon in the Student Union Ballroom from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. She will be presented again at the halftime ceremonies of the KU Missouri University football game and at the Homecoming dance.
