Jayhawkers to Open Series Against Iowa State Today
Kansas moves to Ames, Iowa, for games today and tomorrow against the Iowa State Cyclones, who are beginning to be called the "rain kings" of Big Seven baseball.
The Cyclones had five out of their first six games rained out, and won that lone contest, 17-2, from K-State in Manhattan.
Kansas, with a 2-6 league record,
must win the series from the Cyclones and also take two from Missouri Monday and Tuesday to even their record at 6-6. A double victory over the Tigers would be sweet revenge for a pair of extra-inning defeats suffered this week at the hands of the Bengals.
Coach Hub Ulrich is expected to start John Bose, south pawl hurler, against I-State today, and counter handed Jack. Stonestreet tomorrow.
Cyclone coach Cap Timm will pick his pitchers from a starting quartet of Bob Hermann, Dick
Gardell, Twyman Jones, or Bill Postma.
Leading Kansas hitters are first baseman John Trombold at 420, catcher Galen Fiss at 333, pitcher John Brose at .300, and outfielder, third baseman John Perry at .298.
The Jayhawkers played an improved brand of ball against the Tigers here this week, forcing the defending Big Seven champions into ten innings in each contest. The Tigers showed over five runs in the top of the tenth to whip the Jayhawkers, 8-3 Monday, then swept the series the next day by posting a single run in the extra frame while holding Kansas scoreless in the bottom of the tenth.

FILKIN'S 820 Mass
Close contests in two field events probably will take the limelight at 1:30 p.m. tomorrow in Memorial stadium when the Jayhawkers meet Missouri in their final dual track start of the season.
One of the top contests will be in the shot put between Merlin Gish and the Tiger's Ronnie Salmons. Gish was the big surprise of the Drake meet last week when he defeated highly-regarded Bob Thamm with a heavie of 48 feet $9\frac{1}{2}$ inches, his best throw to date. He probably will have to get every inch as much tomorrow, however, to defeat Salmons, who has thrown the shot around 49 feet several times.
In the pole vault, Jayhawker Norm Steanson and Missouri's Frank Dickey, both of whom have marks of well over 13 feet, will run off a 2-2 split they have posted in other meets this year. Dickey defeated Steanson at the KU-MU indoor dual and at the Drake Relays, while Steanson took honors at the Big Seven indoor meet and the Kansas Relays.
Missouri's Adam Fischer, who won the 100-yard dash in :98 against Nebraska last week, will put Kansas-dash men Dick McGlenn, Don Hess, and Frank Cindrich to a severe test. None of these men have run that low in the outdoor season, although Hess beat Fischer in the indoor 60-yard dash at Kansas City.
Everything considered, the Jayhawker thinclads should successfully defend their string of 13 straight dual triumphs, and finish their second consecutive dual season without a loss.
Kansas will have its usual strength in the distance events, although the Tiger's Jerry Piper will be a strong challenger in the two-mile.
CU Breaks 2 Marks, Whips I-State,76-55
John Creighton of Colorado set a meet record in winning the half-mile in 1.59.4. Jim Armatas won the broad jump for Colorado with a record-breaking leap of 22 feet, eight and one-half inches.
Boulder—(U.P.)-Colorado won 10 of 15 events and broke two meet records here yesterday to defeat Iowa State, 76-55, in a dual track meet.
Shot, Vault Duels Set for KU-MU Meet Tomorrow
Colorado's Ron Gray and Pat Hindman each won two events. Gray the 100 and 200-yard dashes, and Hindman, won both hurdle events.
Brooklyn and Boston battled for 26 innings back in 1920. The score— a 1-1 tie.

Nats Rolling; Braves in First
New York—(U.P.)—Washington's six-game winning streak threatened to stretch out like a Senate filibuster today, thanks to Spec Shea.
Shea, one of three Yankee cast-offs on the pitching staff of Bucky Harris, turned in a six-hit, 2-1 victory over the Brown's last night to put the Nats up to the .500 mark and only a game out of fourth place.
In the National League, Milwaukee came from behind in the ninth to down Pittsburgh 3-2, and go into a tie for first place, the Cards drubbed Brooklyn 8-3, and the New York-Cincinnati and Philadelphia-Chicago games were rained out. In other American
League games, the White Sox again stopped the Yankees 7-5. Boston topped Cleveland in 11 innings 7-5, and Philadelphia edged Detroit, 5-3. Jack Dittmer's bases-loaded single with nobody out gave Milwaukee its eight triumph in nine home games and its fifth in a row. Jim Wilson pitched three-hit ball for his second victory.
The White Sox won a draggy game from the Yankees in which 35 players broke into the lineup.
