TOPEKA, Kans., December R)-
Indications that the dictatorship OF ath-
letics at Washburn was open to Coach
Ernest E. Bearg of Nebraska If he
wished to accept, were contained in an
interview with DR.. P. P. Womer, presl-
dent of the college.
DR.. Womer said that when Coach
Bearg left Washburn in 1920 he was as
sured that he could return anytime he
SO desired, and that that offer Is as
good now as it was then.
The Washburn president also pointed
out that Coach Bearg is one OF the
few outstanding athletic coaches in the
country who fits into the plan OF de-
veloping the Athletic department at
Washburn."

So much interest now is being mani

However, in scheduling boWlers for their

believed this can be done.
Listing the number of boWlers that

for competition will be no easy job for
the schedule committee, though. For

is. 80 alleys available for four hours on
each of the eight nights-be at hand
for the schedule, by crowding and by
bowling strictly on time, about LAO
men could dispose of five games each
as required by the tourney rule. Or
1926 women could dispose of the
necessary three games each.
Help Schedule Committee.
However, in all likelihood the men
will outnumber the women in the
tournament at about a 5-to-2 rate. So
With the $50 alley-hours at that rate,
approximately 1,107 men and 444 wom
Ell could dispose of their games But
only by using every minute of the four
hours nightly And judging by former
tournaments that's figuring too close
ly. Some allowance must be made for
time lost in changing bowling shifts
and also for hardness of bowlers in re-
porting at the drives. No matter how
much they are urged to be at hand on
the dot, there always are some entrants
starting behind time.
Allowing about 10 per cent reduc-
ton because of shifts and late-reporting
boWlers, it appears that $50 alley-hours
could accommodate 1000 man boWlers
and 400 woman boWlers. And making
schedule for 1,400 bowlers is no easy
task So file your entry early with the
management at Lucky Strike or the
bowling editor of The Evening Star
You will help the schedule committee
and yourself at the same time.
