cp?uon pun a similar stunt in the
sixth and seven spots with the
Rockets getting the better end of
tne deal. The rocketine indenend

Trackmen
Meet KU
By CHUCK BEAM
Sports Staff Writer
The University of Kansas track
team will invade the Cornhusk
er's indoor track fr a dual meet
Saturday night at 7:30.
Kansas is braced with distance
runners that rank with the best
in the country.
Coach weir hopes to offset the
performance of brilliant individ
uals of the Jayhawks by his
squad's balance.
Four records are in danger when
the two teams meet Saturday
night. The Jayhawk trackmen
bettered four of the present marks
in their dual with the Kansas
State Wildcats last week.
The mile record held by Har-
oia urooKs (4:22.1) was bettered
by Wes Santee, Jayhawk sopho
more. Santee ran the mile in
4:17.9 at the K.S. dual.
Santee also topped the 880 yard
run record held by Pat Bowers.
Bower's record is 1:56.9 while
Santee was timed in 1:56 in the
dual meet.
Past performance of the two
teams give the Jayhawks an edge
of 58 jto 46.
Oklahoma Swimming ike Tests HU Poo
Still seeking to improve his
turns, Graham Johnston, Okla
homa's new free style sensation
from Bloemfontein, South Africa,
will swim with Coach Joe Gland
er's Sooners Saturday at the
Kansas-Oklahoma dual meet in
the Jayhawkers' remodeled 20-
yard pool at Lawrence, Kans.
The blond Johnston, a 20-year-old
freshman who is
British Empire 1,500 meters
champion, motored to new pool
and university records here Sat
urday night during Oklahoma's
58-26 romp over Southern
Methodist, churning the 220 free
style in 2:13.9 and the 440 in
4:48.9 in the 25-yard Oklahoma
pool.
The short Kansas pool will give
Johnston more turns than he gets
m Oklahoma's regulation layout.
That might not be so good. Johns
ton turns in an awkward circle,
like Aunt Emma pulling out into
the middle of the street to make
a right hand turn in crowded au
tomobile traffic. Coach Glander is
working hard to correct that.
"Graham has a tremendous
reach," Glander describes
Johnston's winning form. "He
throws his shoulder forward
very strongly. His arm digs
awfully deep on the press down.
We are trying to teach him to
go straight in and flop over on
Free Style Sensation
The most serious shakeup came
in the Independent ratings this
week. Six teams made advances
while four dropped in the rankings.
Behind the top three,. M-street,
Rockets and Shortys, are the Dorm
A Comets this week. The Comets
chalked up two wins to boost their
record to 8-2 and place them once
again atop league X as far as the
percentages go although they have
dropped their two contests to the
Shortys.
The Comets slapped NROTC,
40-26 and Dorm B-C, 39-23 for
their week's activity.
The Ae College Doan Nuts
climb from eighth to fifth this
week and take over the lead in
league VIII at the same time. The

have enough confidence in it
yet to use it In a race."
The new Sooner phenom swims
with a powerful roll. The 220 is
new to him. He is much better at
longer distances. He's what
coaches call a "rough swimmer."
Like so many top notch swim

it gets the job done and that's
what Coach Glander wants.

Baseball fans, take a look at the calendar. Onlv 23 davs until
action starts in the major league spring training Grapefruit League
some major league muds win start training toward tne end or
February, with pitchers and catchers getting an early start. By
March 1, all big league clubs will be working out The first spring
exhibition games are scheduled for March 8.
Spring training is always a cala affair. In the snrine. there arm
sixteen potential pennant winners. Almost every ball player feels he
is going io nave -a great year.
This year the fans' enthusiasm will be curtailed slightly by the
draft, as some of the top stars in both leagues have gone into the
armed forces. Some of the big tent favorites who will be missing
from training sites this year are Ted Williams, Don Newcombe,
Willie Mays, and Gerry Coleman.
We predict that the White Sox will aeain be the winnineest team
in the Grapefruit circuit. They usually are. Last year they didn't stop
at the end of spring training, but kept on winning until July.
Some old rivalries will be renewed this year. The New York
Giants, returning to their Arizona training base after a year in
Florida, will resume their scries with the Cleveland Indians. The
New York Yanks, again in St. Petersburg, FloriJa, after training
in Arizona last year, will renew their trad":nal series with the
St. Louis Cards.
After the spring sessions are over, sixteen malor leaeue teams
will head northward for their April 15 opening day games. Then the
races will be on. And it looks like they will be close races.
in the National league the Giants will be the favorites. The
Dodgers have been weakened by the loss of Newcombe, and some
of the Brooks are aging a bit. We doubt if they can field the
terrific club they had last year. Even though the Dodgers were
nipped in the playoffs and blew a big lead, they had an outstand
ing aggregation.
If Eddie Stanky can get a nitchine staff and nn outfielder rr two.
the Cardinals will be in the thick of the NL battle.
The Phillies may surprise in the Senior circuit, as manBuer VAAm
Sawyer -plans to run the Phils throueh a rueeed srrlnir training
session in preparation for the pennant battle. Also, Curt Simmons is
back.
Over in the American League, the choice lies between the
Yankees, Indians, White Sox and Red Sox. Each club has "ifs" which
will mean the difference between winning and losing.
The Yanks will win if they can replace Joe DiMaggio and
Gerry Coleman, and if Mickey Mantle and Bob Cerv come through,
mu ii wey can una a aay-in-aay-out iirst naseman.
The Indians will win if they can start hitting, and if their
pitching staff, particularly Bob Feller, can turn in another nerform-
ance like last year's.
The White Sox will win If the sophomore Jinx doesn't get
Orestes Minoso, Jim Busby and manager Paul Richards, and if
pitching improves, and if they can hit with regularity all season.
The Red Sox will win if they look as good on the field as they
do on paper, and if someone can take over for Ted Williams, nnd if
Maurice McDermott doesn't have to do all the chucking for the Sox.
At any rate, the races couldn't be much tighter than thev were
last year.

hev're both good basketball
players. But if we were to
judge them the way we judge
telephone equipment, we'd take the
small one.
You see, telephone equipment occu
pies valuable space, uses costly mate
rials. Paring down its size helps keep
down the cost of telephone service.
Take voice amplifiers, for example.
Telephone engineers put the squeeze
on size, came up with a new small
type. When 600 of these new ampli
fiers are mounted on a frame two feet
wide and eleven feet high, they do a
job which once required a roomful of
equipment. Size was cut but not
1 performance!
This is one of many cases where the
Bell System has made big things small
to help keep the cost of telephone
service low.
