Kansas State University will take the trophy home with them, but the inscription on the traveling trophy from the canoe race between the residence and scholarship halls of the University of Kansas and K-State will be "Learning the Rules."
Keith Jurgensen, Mission junior and one of KU's judges said, "There was a lot of confusion over the rules due to poor communication and last minute rule changes. For this reason the trophy for 1970 will just say "Learning the Rules."
Hal Munger, one of K-State's judges said, "They (KU) thought the paddles marked the official team and we thought the numbers on the canoes marked the official team."
The judges said both schools
were guilty of breaking the rules during the race. No one they said, wore the life preservers as the rules stated, most kneeled on them.
Twelve canoes, seven from KU and five from K-State, started from Anderson Hall on the K-State campus at noon Friday. Seven canoes finished the race. Honorary judge and president of K-State, James McCain, began the race with the words, "Man the torpedoes, full speed ahead."
Eight and one-half hours later the canoes pulled into the stopping place for the night. Originally it was planned that the contestants would camp on a sand bar near St. Marys, but cold and exhausted crew members, the judges said, stayed over night in Manhattan, Topeka or Lawrence.
Since crew members could be changed during the race, relief crews were set up along the river by many of the participating halls.
The two K-State teams reached the finish line at Strong Hall within a minute of each other. KU's team arrived five minutes later.
The canoes docked at the old water works plant near the north end of Indiana Street and the crew members relayed the paddles from their boats to Strong Hall. When the first runner broke the string stretched across the doorway at Strong only one judge was there to time him. The cheering crowd came later.
Chancellor E. Laurence Chalmers Jr., an honorary judge arrived, a few minutes after the first two teams finished.
