Track enthusiast starts girls' team
By MERRILY ROBINSON
If Dave Kamrar gets his way, KU will soon have a girl's track team.
And the girls, or at least some of them, want it that way too. Others, who attended Kamrar's meeting last Thursday in Robinson Gym, aren't interested in running in competition. But they want to run for the fun of it or to keep fit over the winter.

Economists read papers at Seminar
Three KU economics professors presented research papers at the third Joint Kansas-Missouri Research Seminar in Theoretical and Applied Economics held in the Kansas Union Friday.
Economics professors from the Universities of Kansas, Missouri, and Iowa heard KU professor Leland Pritchard present his paper entitled "A Transactions Concept of Savings."
"Distribution of the Identifiability Test on Statistics" and "Maximation and Qualitative Calculus" were presented by KU professors David Richardson and Richard Ruppert.
The Joint Seminar, a project of the University of Missouri and University of Kansas economies departments, is designed to aid the exchange of research information.
senior with ten years' of track experience, thinks either aim is worthwhile. His main objective is to get a track activity organized in which girls can participate.
"THE PHYSICAL EDUCATION program for girls at KU just isn't big enough and doesn't offer enough," Kamrar said.
This was repeated by Peggy Grinvaldsky, Omaha, Neb., sophomore in fine arts, who pointed out that all spring semester physical education courses open to girls were closed by Thursday afternoon of registration.
Kamar hopes to have a team organized that can compete in the Kansas Relays in April, but the group can't represent KU until they receive authorization to formally organize. Kamar planned to see Dean Laurence S. Woodruff today to request such authorization.
The girls who have signed for the track team come from sororities as well as dormitories. Every afternoon since Friday, they have been running around the NCAA course south of the Pioneer Cemetery.
Mrs. Carolyn Weinhold, instructor in physical education, has shown an interest in the project from the start, Kamrar said, and will probably become sponsor if the group can obtain recognition from Woodruff's office.
Kamrar, from San Mateo, Calif,
has organized track teams in San
Francisco and in Boise, Idaho. In
1965 he coached at the College of
San Mateo.

Water—a rare commodity in dry Kansas—and how to drill for it will be discussed today and tomorrow in the Kansas Union as the Water Well Drillers Institute begins its annual conference.
Advance registrations have indicated many mav stay an extra day to join others from several states who will attend the Shallow Exploration Drillers Clinic Wednesday.
The theme of this year's Institute is "Completing Last Year's Well." Last year, the emphasis was on drilling water wells.

SOME OF THE TOPICS will include "Municipal Water Supply," "Well Completion," and "Computer Applications of Ground-Water Data."
"Institute studies will cover the testing of wells and analyzing the test results to determine which of
a well's performance characteristics are governed by the well's hardware, and which can be accounted for by knowing the geological formation it taps," said John D. Winslow, United States Geological Survey (USGS) ground water specialist from Lawrence.
Charles Bayne from the Lawrence USGS is coordinator of the Well Drilling Institute.
