Marks of Mentors
Beaten By Lads
KANSAS CITY 0 Two track
coaches who attracted world wide
attention when they competed for
the University of Missouri a decade
ago have proteges whose performances
are overshadowing their mentors' bent
efforts.
Brutus K. Hamilton, coaching at
the University of Kansas, has devel
oped Clyde Coif man, Jay haw leer soph
omore. Into an all-around athlmc
whom he rates as potentially better
than himself at his best.
In his unheralded debut at the
Illinois relays septal h Ion, Coffman
made the highest point total on rec
ord except that made by Barney Bor
llnger of Pennsylvania In winning
the seven-event test this spring.
Hamilton, who won the Illinois sep
tathlon In his college dttys, expect
Coffman to follow In his footsteps,
which led to the Olympic games. A
162-pounder, Coffman Is specializing
In the polc-vnult, jnvelin and discus
for present competition, and training
to perfect himself In the other events.
He holds the Kansas pole-vault rec
ord of 13 feel. 714 Inches.
The other Big 8lx athlete who
knocked oft one of his roach's long
standing records Is Bob Hngcr of Iowa
State college. Coach Bob Simpson
witnessed the down fit 11 of IDs Drake
relays record when Ifager skimmed
the 120-yard high hurdles m 14.7

seems somehow unnatural. There Is
something strange and unlovable

eighty-eighth baseball game between
the universities of North Carolina and
Virginia, played here, was more than
an ordinary college game.
The teams have been rivals since
1891 and before the last series of
1931 they were all square. Bach
team had won 42 games and two had
been tied.
The Tar Heels took both games In
the last series and went two up on
