KU Athletic Director Notes Three Games
Three games stand out in the memory of A.C. (Dutch) Lonborg, KU's athletic director and the third all-America basketball player in 1919.
"I had hurt my right knee in football in 1919," he began. "We were playing Kansas State and Manhattan. I had to be careful in stopping on that bad knee or I'd fall.
"Doc (F.C. (Phog Allen) had taken over our team early that season (1920). We were warming up ahead of the game and I was having trouble. He pulled me off the court, took me to the dressing room and worked on that knee.
"I PLAYED ALL the way and we won the game."
Lonborg, now in his 14th year as KU athletic director, is one of the few KU basketball players who not only played for Allen, but for his predecessor, W.O. Hamilton.
"Missouri had a fine team in 1919," Lonborg recalls. "We were playing them at Columbia. We played them to a standstill and had them beat late in the game. Those were the days when you could stall anywhere on the court.
"We were standing in the back-court passing the ball around and Missouri wasn't coming after us much. I was so dog tired I just sat down on the floor and let the other four handle the ball.
"THEY DIDN'T need me.
"But Coach was wild. He came off the bench and under the Missouri goal yelling at me to get up Did I get up and get back in the game? Sure, I did.
"I'll never forget either, the old swing we used to make to Ames, Grinnell and Drake. It was my senior year and Doc was coaching.
"We got to Ames and Doc put us to bed for the afternoon as usual. But, Scrubby Laslett and John Bunn went to the show instead of staying in bed. Doc found out about it and decided not to start them. They were plenty sick.
"Doc put Bunn on the scorers' bench as we always did in those days. Pretty soon, George Rody, who then was a sophomore, fouled out. He always did insist John put every Kansas foul on the book on him so he (John) could get into the game."
AFTER A YEAR with Army and when his eligibility was completed at the end of the 1920 football season, Lonborg played for the Kansas City Athletic Club basketball team. The team won the national AAU title and all-American was named a Helms Foundation all-America.
Besides his basketball honors, the one-time Horton farm boy thrice was named all-Missouri Valley in football. He is only one of only 33 in KU athletic history to earn letters in three sports, tripling as a third baseman in baseball.
He returned to KU in 1950 to his present post after a 29-year coaching career at McPherson, Washburn and Northwestern. Lonborg was due for retirement last year, but was granted an additional year by the Board of Regents.

QUARTERBACK Y.A. TITLE of the New York Giants threw a record 33 touchdowns in the 1962 National Football League competition and completed 200 of 375 tosses for 3,224 yards.
Going into the final days of competition, KU's 144 intramural basketball teams are preparing for games which, in many cases, will either make or break their season's records.
After the season's end, the top two teams in each division will participate in a series of playoffs to determine winners in fraternity and independent "A", "B" and "C" team brackets. The fraternity and independent winners will play to establish hill championship teams in each bracket.
Walter J. Mikols, director of men's intramurals, said a total of 1689 men have participated in intramural basketball this season.
Mikols said post season playoff games will begin February 20 for "A" teams and February 24 for "B" and "C" teams. More than 380 games have been played in the current season.
All intramural team competition is divided into two leagues—fraternity and independent. The fraternity league is composed of teams from the various social fraternities on the campus. The independent league is made up of teams from professional societies, independent living areas and other groups on the campus.
Intramural Basketball Teams Race to Wire
According to Mikols, any campus group may form an intramural team.
group may for 10 minutes "Any bona fide student," Mikols said, "whether he lives in a fraternity, an apartment or a dormitory, may either organize or participate on an interscholastic team. The only exception to this rule is a provision which provides that varsity athletes may not compete in the same intramural sport as their varsity sport."
