Santee to Enter Miami Invitational
The University announced over the week end that Santee, who missed the four-minute mark by five tenths of a second April 2 at the Texas Relays, has accepted a bid to race in the invitational mile on the Coral Gables, Fla., track.

It is also expected that Santee's teammate Art Dalzell, who paced him in the Texas Relays, will be invited to run in the meet. Santee has consistently lowered his times, both indoor and outdoor, since acquiring Dalzell as a pace-setter.
Santee will take aim on the elusive four-minute mark for the first time since the Texas Relays Saturday when he runs in the Glenunning mile at the Texas Relays Dallazel and another Jayhawker distance man, Dick Wilson, will set the pace in Saturday's meet.

Kansas City, Mo. —(U.P.) For the second time in a week baseball-happy Kansas Citians poured out to the airport to greet the Athletics last night—this time acting as though the team had not lost all three games in its first series on the road.
Kansas Citians Welcome Team
More than 5,000 fans, cheering and shouting, jammed against the air terminal fences in an effort to shake hands with the players. Many broke through the gates and surrounded the surprised team.
But the yelling, back-slapping crowd looked much like the welcoming party for the A's opener against Detroit last week.

The A's lost their fourth in a row, 16-0. to the Detroit Tigers yesterday.
"If this had been Philadelphia I would have been afraid to get off the plane," he said. "Why couldn't we have won just one for these people."
Pitcher Bobby Shantz was astonished by the ovation.
Business Manager Parke Carroll said advance sales for tonight's game against the Cleveland Indians indicated no loss of spirit. An overflow crowd of some 32,000 was expected, he said.
"What the heck would they have done if we had won?" he asked.

Freshman halfback John Traylor scored three touchdowns as the Kansas Jayhawks topped the Alumni squad 26 to 12 in Memorial stadium Saturday.
The victory was the second win for the Varsity in the five-year history of the series, and was the first for Coach Mather since coming to KU.
The Varsity scored first as Traaylor scooted around left end from the eight to cap a 54-yard march. Jerry Baker converted and the Varsity led 7 to 0 with 6:46 left in the first quarter.
The Alumni came back in the second quarter to march 94 yards for a score after halting a second Varsity drive on the four. Quarterback Red Morrow completed four passed to end Paul Leoni to keep the drive in motion, with Morrow sneaking over from the one for the tally.
The Varsity took the second half kickoff and marched to the Alumni one-yard line but Bob Hantla, a former KU co-captain and now a
The undergraduates completely dominated play, scoring touchdowns in the first and second quarter and adding two insurance tallies in the final stanza for the final margin. The Hawks, who were held to only one yard from rushing in last year's game, piled up 221 yards on the ground while holding the Alumni to only 67, and outgained the Alumni 104 to 95 in the air lanes.
After Pat Gibbens missed the conversion, the Varsity led 7 to 6 with 2:52 remaining in the half, the Varsity marched the length of the field in five plays to take a 13 to 6 halftime lead. Freshman quarterback Wally Strauch completed three passes, two to Traylor and one to freshman halfback John Francisco, during the drive. The score came on a 16-aerial to Traylor in the end zone, with only 29 seconds left in the half. Baker missed the conversion.
middle guard with the San Francisco 48ers, recovered a fumble in the Kansas backfield to stop the drive.
The Alums were unable to move the ball, and were forced to kick. John Handley took Bill Mace's punt on the Alumni 46 and returned five yards to the 41. Twelve plays later the Varsity had a touchdown, with Traylor dashing around left end from the 11 on fourth down. Jerry Baker's kick was blocked, and the Hawks led 19 to 6 with 12:41 left in the game.
Freshman quarterback Dave Preston intercepted a Dick Gilman area after the Alumni了 the kickoff, but Arch Unruh picked off one of Preston's aerials four plays later and the Alumni took over on their own 16-yard line. However, the Varsity took over on downs four plays later as three passes by Morrow fell incomplete.
After two running plays failed to gain, halfback Terry McIntosh took a lateral from Bev Buller and pitched a 21-yard running pass to Jim Letcavits, who made a nifty over-the-shoulder catch in the end zone. Handley converted and the Varsity led 26 to 6 with 3:54 remaining in the game.
The Alums put on a 62-vard march after taking the kickoff to score with only 13 seconds remaining as Morrow hit Harold Patterson, now a star with the Montreal Alouettes, with a five-yard flip for the touchdown.
