Track men make plans to join KU
The nation's leading junior college sprinter, Ben Olison, and two high school track stars have signed national letters of intent to enroll at KU next fall. Coach Bob Timmons said that Olison, a graduate of Bakersfield Junior College of California, will be eligible for the Jayhawk varsity during the 1966-'67 school year.
Olison will come to Kansas with impressive track credentials. He has been timed in 9.5 for the 100-yard dash, good for number one ranking in that event among junior college track athletes. He also has a time of 21.4 for the 220-yard dash. Olison has recorded a 440 yard time of 46.9 which ranks second nationally. He has added a relay time of 46.4.
TIMMONS ALSO announced the signing of Mark Ferrell from Jackson High School in New York City.
Ferrell has tied the national high school "flat floor" record in the indoor 880 of 1:55.2. So far this spring his best outdoor 880 time is 1:51.8. This is the second fastest high school time in the nation this year. He also holds the all time best 600 outdoor mark of 1:11.1.
Paul Mattingly of South Haven High School has returned his national letter of intent to Timmons.
MATTINGLY WAS THE Class B mile champion in 1965, and this year was runner-up in the 880 to another recently signed KU track man, Carl Nicholson.
He has bests in the mile and 880 of 4:22.6 and 1.55.2. He has also run the 220 in 21.7, the 440 in 50 flat, and has a time of 15.3 for the 120 high hurdles.
Juco track star signs intent letter
Coach Bob Timmons has announced that Steve Moon of Chanute Junior College has signed a letter of intent to enroll with the Jayhawks in the fall.
Moon won the javelin event at the National Junior College meet with a record toss of 218'-61/4". Timmons said that Moon is considered to be one of the year's finest instate athletes and will be eligible for the KU varsity track squad next season. "Moon is a good prospect and has a strong throwing arm." Timmons said.
The new signee maintained a "B" average in junior college and plans to major in biological science.
Dean Agee to address alumni group July 1
Dean Warren K. Agee of the School of Journalism will speak at an alumni luncheon July 1 in the Glenwood Manor Motel, 92nd and Metelc St., Overland Park.
Dean Agee will explain the University of Kansas 18.5 million dollar endowment goal to be achieved in the next three years.
Ryun takes month rest
Jim Ryun, KU's Olympic miler, will take a month-long break from track competition this summer. The vacation, Ryun's first since his sophomore year at Wichita East High School, will begin after a meet with the Russian track team in Los Angeles on July 22 and 23.
Track coach Bob Timmons first suggested the break early last spring when Ryun began to show the effects of his rigorous training schedule. Timmons pointed out that Ryun was competing so often and under such pressures that at times he was "running tired" Ryan agreed it was time for a break and plans only light daily workouts. He will resume competition at the beginning of the cross country season this fall.

Susan Mae Kasper of Wilson has received a $300 Women's Student Government Association scholarship for 1966-67 at the University of Kansas. The WSGA Fund was established by the KU Associated Women Students and provides for awards to outstanding and worthy women students at KU.
