Kansas Runners Grab 26th Emporia Wins Haskell Meet
Frosh Cage Tryouts Will Open Tonight
Coach Bill Easton's cross country made it 26 in a row here Saturday morning by dumping Missouri university, 10-29. Wes Santee of KU, captured individual honors in 15:16.7 over the 3-mile up and down course.
Tryouts for the freshmen basketball team will start at 8:15 p.m. today. Practice will be held in Robinson gym.
Santee, who finished about 40 yards in front of No. 2 man, teammate Art Dalzell, could conceivably have broken the course record of 15:08.1, but near the Potter Lake bridge he practically stopped running to shout encouragement to his fellow Jayhawk runners.
Missouri countered the Jayhawks with a weakened team, both its top two men out with illnesses. Ken Hershey and Lynn Romann; both juniors who had won a meet apiece this fall, did not make the trip. The loss was the first for the Tigers in three starts this season.
Third place went to Al Frame. KU; fourth, Lloyd Koby, KU; fifth, Keith Bacon, M; sixth, Dick Wilson, KU; seventh, Vic Walker, M; eighth, Don Roeder, M; ninth, Bradshaw, M, and tenth, Duane Kelly, M.
This Friday the Hawks will engage in their last dual before the Nov. 14 league runoff here. Friday's opposition will be from Oklahoma at Norman.
Emporia high school, by taking second, third, and sixth places, Saturday morning won the Haskell invitational cross country meet over a 2-mile course at KU. Bob Harrison of Olathe, was first across the finish line in 9:44.7.
After a brief squabble about the order of the finish at the end of the run, Emporia nosed out Topeka 23-30, low score winning. The jugging of the sixth through 10th finishers, did not however, affect Topeka's standing.
Teams scores were Emporia 23, Topeka 30, Haskell 50, Olathe 61, Wyandotte 69, Shawnee-Mission 71, Highland Park of Topeka 99, and Nortonville 137.
The top finishers were Harrison;
Ray Robinson, Emporia; John Mahan,
Emporia; Eastman Factor, Haskell;
Julius Lincoln, Topeka; Lucky
Heath, Emporia; Lawrence Brady,
Topeka; Stan Ridgway, Topeka;
Frank Beaver, Haskell.

A LONG WAY YET—Kansas cross country runners Wes Santee, left, and Art Dalzell trudge over the Potter lake bridge in Saturday's meet against Missouri, which Kansas won 10-29, for its 26th victory in a row. Santee eventually won in 15:16.7, Dalzell was second, sophomore Al Frame captured third, and Lloyd Koby, behind Santee and Dalzell in picture, came in fourth.
Top Two Major Prep Teams Beaten in Weekend Action
For the second week in a row, the No. 1 high school football team in Kansas has been upset on the following Friday night. Two weeks ago, Ark City, who had held the top ranking for two weeks, was tied by El Dorado, 6-6.
Last Friday Wichita East and Wyandotte, top-ranked by the Associated Press and the Topeka Daily Capital respectively, were beaten. Ark City retaliated from its tie to tromp Wichita East, 52-0. Wyandotte fell before Topeka, 0-26.
Around the rest of the state the top teams had little difficulty in winning as the seventh week of the season came to an end. The only upset came when Emporia rolled over Salina, considered the 7th or 8th team in the state, 33-21. Emporia had lost to Haskell the week before, 6-20.
Only three major schools still remain undefeated and untied. Independence won its seventh straight, defeating Neodesha, 30-12. Haskell, with a string of 11 victories and seven straight this year, steamrolled Maur Hill of Atchison, 52-20. The
Western Kansas power, St. Joseph's Cadets of Hays, won its seventh straight this year, defeating Guymon, Okla., 31-7.
Here is how the state's other top teams fared over the weekend: Coffeyville over Pittsburg, 50-7; Wichita North over El Dorado, 16-9; Hutchinson over Newton, 14-7; Wichita West and Augusta tied, 6-6; Ward over Argentine, 12-6; Lawrence over Ottawa, 39-6; Manhattan over Abilene, 28-0; Shawnee-Mission over Leavenworth, 20-6; Great Bend over Larned, 47-19; Junction City over Chapman, 32-14; Highland Park over Seaman, 26-7; and Atchison over St. Joe Benton, 25-0.
