* And So They Say: Howard Wanamaker: “I can’t tell you any news. It’s the women who do all the talking.” Clarence Spencer (after returning home from his trip to the West Coast): “Kansas is the only place to live.” Dave Oyer: “The kids are sure crazy these days—but I guess we were too, only our cars were not so powerful.” Virgil Hagan: “I still think we have the best kids in the world in Stockton, and the more I hear about other places, the more convinced I am.” * There seemed to have been an injury epidemic among the young men during the week, with the injuries affecting shoulders and arms. The first to be injured was Jerry Harding. Jerry was doing a Thrillcade act on a ramp some of the boys had rigged up, a bicycle being the vehicle. The stunt wasn’t a success, and Jerry fractured his right wrist. Thursday night, two other boys were hurt. While out practicing football, Johnny Hageman received a shoulder separation, which could cause him a lot of trouble and, at best, would keep him from playing with the eighth-grade squad for the remainder of the season. Tommy Charmichael was the other casualty. In a scramble over a big plastic bag filled with water, he received an injured right hand and some cracked bones in his left wrist.
