Dean Nesmith in 38th year as KU trainer
Dean Nesmith is truly the "dean" of the University of Kansas athletic department. He heads into his 38th year as trainer of the Jawhaws this season.
Nesmith came to KU 43 years ago from Belleville, Kan., and recommended for freshman football. Except for one year when he played professional football with the New York Yankees, "Denner" has been here ever since.
He lettered as a tackle on Jayhawk football teams in 1934-33 and joined the Yankees in 1936. He returned to KU in 1937 to finish his degree and became a student at UTEP. When Des resigned in 1938, Nesmith was given the KU post. He's had it ever since.
Nesmith was chairman of the board of the National Collegiate Trainers Association in 1952-53, and served as trainer for the 1960 U.S. Olympic basketball team in Rome.

The intramural program provides students with the opportunity to participate in competitive or recreational activities. Approximately half the students at the Lawrence campus take advantage of this opportunity.
"As far as how I plan to run the program," Marcks said, "I plan to keep things much the same as last year unless I see reason to change it.
This year, for the first time, the men's, women's and co-ed programs will be under the direction of one person, Rich Marches, who begins his first year at KU. He replaces Bob Lockwood as the men's director and Bob Woodward as the women in the women's and co-ed programs.
Marcus comes to Kansas from the University of Wisconsin, where he got a master's degree in physical education in 1972 and is also coach of the soccer club at Wisconsin.
"To me, the best reason for changing is student input. I want to know from them what they are thinking."
The intramural facilities are in Robinson
Gymnastics and surrounding fields.
Robinson has two gyms, each with two
baskets.
KU has three indoor handball courts and nine three-wall outdoor courts. An indoor swimming pool is located in Robinson Natatorium at the south end of the building, and is open for use by students at specified hours.
Outdoor facilities include nine softball and football fields and 13 tennis courts. Basketballs, volleyballs, badminton nets and rackets and other equipment can be checked out for use in the gyms with student I.D. cards.
Intramural begin in the fall with touch football for men and flag football for women. Marcks said he expected about 115 teams for these sports. Another team sport, women's kickball, will be played in the fall.
Tennis is in the fall, with competition in both men's and women's singles and doubles, plus mixed doubles. Marcus is making arrangements for a golf tournament at Alvarnar Fills. Other individual tennis fall are horseshoes and racquetball.
Marcks said he expected to learn a lot in his first semester as intramural director. From that experience, he will make the changes he needs necessary, he said.

In the past, there have been some problems with spectators during basketball games. It was necessary two years ago to ban them from games. Marks said he planned to continue this policy, at least for awhile.

from the mere geographics of the buildings."
All students regularly enrolled in any department in the University, of amateur standing, are eligible to compete in innings. The university staff and faculty are also eligible.
In men's intramural, teams are divided into two divisions, fraternity and interscholastic. Independent colleges call and independent teams are designated to leagues in the women's program.
