DECATHLON MATERIAL
UN PACIFIC COAST
The Berkeley edition of the Uni
versity of California thinks that
the Los Angeles end of the school
has two members of its track
team that are due to take a crack
at the Olympic decalnlon title in
1940. These two men are Wood-
row Strode and Clavk Shaugh
nessv. Berkeley Bear Coach Bru
tus Hamilton thinks that Shaugh
nessy is the better of the two and
can outlast Strode in the gruelling
ten event grind, but popular opin
ion favors Strode. Hamilton should
know, tho, as he was the man who
coached the U. S. team that scored
one, two, three in that event at
Berlin in 1936.
Shaughnessy is the son of the
Chicago grid coach of the same
name and is classed tops in the
javelin. Besides the spear, Clark
is said to be the master in the
pole vault with the cross bar at
13 feet 6 inches. He also broad
jumps around 24 feet.
One Man Gang
Strode is a giant Negro who
played an awful lot of end for the
Bruins last fall and whose full
name is Woodrow Wilson Wool
wine Strode. He throws the shot
over 50 feet, the discus over 160,
high jumps 8 feet 2 and runs the
220 lows in 24.2. The only cie
pnrtment in which he falls short
is the pole vault. A pole has not
yet been perfected at UCLA that
will hold the Strode weight, ana
should one be made, west coasters
pre afraid that Woody himself
won't be Hble to lift it.
Decathlon at K. U. Relays.
Speaking of decathlons reminds
us that the Kansas relays which
will be held at Lawrence April 23
will afford the only opportunity
for aspirants to get a little compe
ition before Olympic ime. Three
topnotch men have already entered
the event Bt the Jaynawk meet
William Lewis of Tipton, Mo., Wil
liam McLane of Cape Girardeau
(Mo. I Teachers and Charles Whit
acre, unattached, of Ottawa are
those that are scheduled to fight
it out. Lewis is an 18 year old
Neero high school boy who com
peted in the decathlon last year.
He won four of the ten events in
1937. but tlid not compete in the
pole vault so finished well down
the list. This year ne is ex
pected to make a strong bid for
the crown.
McLane, a hurdler of note, won
the all-around championship at the
Illinois relays this winter. He has
run the 120 highs in 14.8. 100
vsrds in 9.9. broad lumped 23
feet and pole vaulted 12 feet.
Defending Champ.
Dick Kearns of Colorado, win
ner of the decathlon last year at
Lawrence, has announced that he
will defend his diadem. He won
the national junior A. A. U. chan
pionship in the high hurdles last
vear and he Is also a crarK poi
vaulter. When in high school
Kearns was a one-man track team,
There will be some good two
milers on hand too for the relays
with Little Bill Beiler. of Drake,
Charley Mitchell. K-State and
John Munske of Missouri. Beiler
is the 120 ppunder w ho was second
in the two-mile at tne national
collegiate meet last year. Mitchell
won the Big Six title in the event
last spring and repeated Indoors
this winter. Munske fas first In
the conference two mile race last
fall.
A testimonial to tho stiff com
petition offered at the meet ear

has been run every yearince 1923

Jays for Second
Time This Year
Major Jones eased up on his
gridsters and sent them thru a
light drill yesterday after the stiff
workout and 70 minute scrimmage
the day before, emphasizing in
particular the
ass, upon
which he has
e e n placing
t r e s 8 during
this last week
of spring foot
ball practice.
Jones is not
at all happy to
have to close
shop after Sat
urday s scrim
mage until next
fall but wishes
practice would
continue sever
al more weeks,
giving him
time to smooth out the rough
places and polish up the precision
and timing of the offense, but in
particular to give that much
needed experience .to what he
terms green troops.
Drill consisted chiefly of re
hearsal of plays, with Link Ly
man ironing out wrinkles in the
line, stressing blocking and fast
chargin, while the backfield under
Jones and Presnell drilled on
passes. The entire team seemed
somewhat stale, with Bill Andre-
son turning in the only good per
formance of the day as time and
again his fingers seemed covered
with glue as he managed to hang
onto almost impossible aerial
heaves. Andreson is one of the
better pass receivers on the squad.
Calisthenics were in the order
of the day to loosen up muscles
and sore spots, and take out the
kinks. These settlngup exercises
are performed every day and pre
vent to a large measure mishaps
and injuries.
Closing the drills, the four teams
took certain assigned plays from
the major and ran them off down
the field, thus gaining practice
working together in familiar un
its. Finally each squad , m turn
lined up before the goal posts
and the record was 100 percent
good, as each time the placekiekcr
sent the pigskin twirling end over
end thru the uprights. Those mak
ing the placeklcks were Marvin
Flock, Edsel Wibbels, Vernon Nep-
rud, and Bill Andreson.
The day was warm, with many
of the players taking off their
jerseys and shoulder pads, which
weren t needed as no scrimmage
took place, but merely a few drills
on the dummies. '

LAWRENCE, Kas., April 14.
The University of Kansas track
team gits back into action, after
a two weeks rest, 4th a dual meet
against the University of Nebras
ka here, Saturday.
The Jayhawks competed at the
Texas Relays, April 2. and since
then have been unable to work out
outdoors because of weather. They
have been keeping In condition on
the indoor track, however.
Injuries continue to dog the
Jayhawks, with Chet Frledland,
shot putter, the latest victim.
Friedland cut his right hand se
verely on a barbed wire fence and
probably will not be able to com
pete Satuiday.
Don Bird, conference champion
in the pole vault, is still on the
sidelines with a dislocated elbow
sufl'eud at the indoor meet and J.
D. Richardson, sprinter, is nursing
a muscle pulled at Texas.
Kansas should show to good ad
vantage in the middle distance
runs, with Ernie Klann in the 8S0;
and mile .and Dale Heckendornt
in the 88U. Klann was second in
both races at the Big Six indoor
meet and Heckendorn ran a 1:57
half mile at Texas.

When at a dinner party, Mlnne-1

public restaurant they have a
manual of special defenses or of
fenses to fit all emergencies. The
school has an etiquette course that
teaches students all the finer and
less fine points in eating.
"Old grads" of the fall and win
ter etiquette courses had a field
day recently to exhibit their prow
ess. With Mrs. Leora Cassidy, in
structor, conducting, the class held
a "demonstration" dinner in the
Union building. Twelve "star"
pupils sat at tahles in the center of
the room, with the others ar
ranged in a circle around them.
Eight students showed to the
class how to eat and how not to
eat at a private dinner party. The
other' four demonstrated the al
ternative type of eating, the type
of self-pieservation in vogue at
the public lestaurant. And then
after the dinner an umbrella court
gave students delinquent in the
skill a chance to ask questions, to
brush up on food eating technique.

"It's quite evident," fimm pre

Floyd F. Kishline Relates
Farm Power Problem
to Ag Students.
Floyd F. Kishline told 60 stu
dents and visitors at the Nebraska
college of agriculture Wednesday
night that it alcohol from farm
products is used successfully ss a
motor fuel It will require the com
bined efforts of the agricultural
engineer, the chemical engineer,
anil the mechanical engineer.
"No one branch can do it alone"
I he said.
Kishline Is chairman of the De
troit section of the Society of au
tomotive engineers and chief en
gineer for th Graham-Paige com
pany. He spoke on "Evolution of
Farm Power."
Kishllns traced the history of
farm power from hand labor to
the present, and predicted that fu
ture tractors will have lighter,
higher speed motors. "The auto
mobile type of engines will be
adapted to tractors just as It wss
adapted to trucks," he said.
The mollification by congress of
the capital gains and undistributed
profits tax, which seems very re
mote from collegiate Interest, is
really of important significance to
tins year's graduates. Many econo
mists claim that this tax is the
underlying reHson for the pro
nounced slump and that with its
repeal business will pick up. Sur
veys shows that thus far there is
a decided decrease as compared
with M37 In the number of place
meiits In business of college sen
ions who will soon complete their
courses.
