KU runners meet in intrasquad dual
KU's indoor track season opens tonight when the varsity meet the freshmen at 6 p.m. in Allen Field House.
The 14-event meet will be highlighted by the mile run and the 60-yard low hurdles.
JIM RYUN, world record holder in the outdoor mile and 880-yard run, will compete in both events. His record times are 3:51.3 and 1:44.9.
The low hurdles brings together three top sprinters. Junior Lee Adams, sophomore Harold Byers and freshman J. W. Johnson are expected to battle for top honors. Byers and Adams have tied the world record of 6.7. Johnson was one of the top high school sprinters in the state.
Senior co-captains announced this week include Gary Ard, Modesto, Calif., and Dwight Peck.
Woodcliff Lake, N. J. Ard won the long and triple jumps at last year's Big Eight meet Peck was fourth in the 440-yard dash.
COACH BOB TIMMONS said five trackmen will compete in Sunday's Athen Invittional indoor track meet at Oakland, Calif.
They are Bob Steinhoff, pole vaulter; Ard and Peck; Julio Meade, sprinter; and John Lawson, distance runner.
Peck will run in the 600, Meade, the 500, and Lawson, the two-mile.
Timmons will be at the Boston Garden this weekend to help conduct a clinic and watch Lawson run two miles in the Knights of Columbus indoor games.
Lawson will then fly to the Oakland meet.
Students given tax tips
Mrs. Evelyn Conard, payroll supervisor, gave KU foreign students one of her annual informative lectures on alien taxation yesterday.
As she has been for the last six years, Mrs. Conard is available to help any of the campus's approximately 500 foreign students in completing their income tax return.
"They file just as we (Americans) do and have the same deadline, April 15," she said. "But of course, foreign students often don't know how we do it."
MANY INTERNATIONAL students pay taxes on State salaries from teaching assistantships, research grants, or some taxable scholarships from the government. She also helps those working in non-governmental positions.
"One of the trouble spots is the exemption variations," she said. "For instance, a man is not able to claim his wife and children as exemptions if they are not residing in the United States. They can claim heavy expenditures for interest or medical expenses, but I have encountered only four or five who qualify in the last six years."
Mrs. Conard voluntarily assumed the position of tax advisor to KU international students six years ago, when she began studying the laws relating to the subject. Clark Coan, dean of foreign students, said Mrs. Conard has become an expert in the field.
Jayhawks will clash with SMU
KU's swimming team meets Southern Methodist - its third opponent in six days—tonight at 7:30 p.m. in the new Robinson pool.
Ranked fifth nationally, the Mustangs are led by All-Americans in five events. Two other swimmers have earned All-America honors competing on relay teams.
ALL-Americans include Vernon Slovin, 200-yard butterfly; Lydon Neumann, 100 and 200-yard backstroke; William Charbonneau, 100 and 200-yard breaststroke; Brian Percival, 200-yard individual medley; and Howard Moore, 400-yard individual medley.
The top swimmer, however, is sophomore Kenneth Merten considered the world's fastest breast-stroker. In 1965 and 1966, Merten won the 100 and 200-yard breast-stroke indoor and outdoor events in the National AAU championships.
KU coach Dick Reamon terms SMU's strength awesome.
"THEY WILL really be tough. Maybe the better competition will make our swimmers go faster," Reamon said. "We scheduled them to draw better talent."
He said, "People will get to see one of the finest teams in the nation when we dual SMU, and I hope that we can give them a good meet. They should have the best medley relay in the country."
The Jayhawks, who won last week's dual meets with Missouri and Colorado, will be led by Don Pennington.
SMU defeated KU 66-29, in last season's meet at Dallas
