The 120 yd. hurdle was run by Sherman, Sanderson and McMurray. The event promised to be one of the most interesting of the day.
Sherman was first over the sixth hurdle. McMurray had scarcely reached the ground when Sanderson tripped and was thrown forcibly to the ground. Sherman beat McMurray out. Time, $ 1 8^{\frac{3}{5}} $ seconds.
Clark did not exert himself very hard to win the half mile bicycle race over Keeley. It was Keeley's first race, and Clark won a pair of Vim tires for riding half a mile in 1:41.
The 16-lb. hammer was thrown by Foster, Outland, and Squires, Outland making the leading throw, 83 feet, 4 inches.
The 220 yd. dash was an exciting one, Sherman winning cleverly in $ 24^{\frac{3}{6}} $ seconds. Hill second, Voigts third, Squires last.
Sanderson's pole vaulting was one of the prettiest features of the day. He vaulted nine feet with such ease and grace that he was warmly applauded. Johney Outland got a second prize on this event, perhaps because there were no other competitors, but Outland was tired.
Clark's handicap of 100 yards by Keeley in the mile bicycle race, was not enough to make an interesting event, and he won the Mogan & Wright tires in 2:48.
Sanderson cleared the 5 foot 6 inch running high jump record he established at the indoor meet. Alexander took second on a 4 foot 9 inch jump.
In the mile run there were four entries, Baldridge, Henderson, Hamaker and Holiday, finishing in the order named. The men were well bunched until the home stretch, when Baldridge took a good lead, while Henderson
passed Hamaker on the spurt not ten feet from the wire. Time, 5:34.
McMurray, Sanderson and Rench made a neat event of the 220 hurdle, McMurray winning in 30 seconds, with Sanderson second.
The 440 yard dash was run by Hamaker, Baldridge, Rench and Henderson. Hamaker took the lead in the start, and held it, winning the event in 1 minute flat. Baldridge second, Rench third.
The running broad jump was one of the star numbers. Sanderson making 20 feet 2 inches, and breaking the University record. Voigts made 18 feet $5 \frac{1}{2}$ inches for second place. Cowley third.
The officers were: Hogg and Piatt, judges; Blair and Usher, timekeepers; Hector Cowan, Starter, Will Walker, scorer, Manley, referee.
Kansas University vs. Kansas City.
The track team of the University will go to Kansas City Decoration Day to compete with the track team of the Y. M. C. A. of that city. Twelve events will be contested for by the teams of ten men. The 'Varsity will be represented by the following men: Sanderson, Sherman, Hill, Voigts, Foster, McMurray, Hamaker, Outland, Rench and Baldridge. The events will be 100, 220, and 440 yard dashes, 120 and 220, hurdles, hammer throw, shot put, pole vault, running high jump, running broad jump, standing broad jump, mile run. As this is the first visit of a college track team to that city, a good deal of interest is shown in the coming meet. There will be a special rate to Kansas City, and a large number of students will attend.
Ottawa Here Saturday.
Manager Todd has arranged a ball game for Decoration Day. The Ottawa team, strengthened and improved will visit us Saturday and cross bats with the Jayhawkers on McCook field. The game should be an interesting one.
