Norman, Okla., home of the Oklahoma Sooners, is boasting new facilities for the Big Seven championships in golf; tennis, and track. And these facilities may increase the Jayhawkers' chances of returning with the crowns.
The new Sooner track cost Oklahoma $80,000, but it is an excellent addition to the university's sporting needs. It is laid out in a more round than oval fashion on an east-west facing rather than the old north-south.
Wes Santee stands a good chance of breaking the mile record. His running in previous meets indicates he certainly is trying. Unofficially, Santee has broken several records while running the relays.
Herb Semper is another Kansan to figure in the record breaking field. Semper, a senior, already holds 11 two-mile records in the Big Seven score books, but he'll be aiming to break his own 9:21.0 mark.
The tennis matches will be played on four concrete courts next to the stadium. The concrete courts were added recently when the Sooner stadium was expanded to 55,000 seats.
Coach Dick Mechem's netmen are used to the concrete courts and should fare well. Big Seven rules stipulate concrete courts as the official meet place, and Coach Mechem's crew has concentrated its efforts on the cement courts.
Charles Crawford figures prominently in the top tennis players at the tournament. Crawford, who has been defeated only once this season in a contested match with Roger Coad of Kansas State, should wind up in final play to help the Jayhawkers' try for the championship.
ship.
Gene Fotopoulos is another Jayhawker who should rank high in the No. 2 singles division. Fotopoulos, a transfer student from Hutchinson Junior college, gave Crawford a tough battle for the No. 1 berth before the season got into full swing.
No.1 berth before the season got into action The golf meet will be played on the new grass-green links located a mile south of the Oklahoma university campus. Another addition to the Sooner facilities, the 18-hole course ranks with professional courses in the nation.
Each team is allowed to enter five men in the golf tournament. The top four scores of the five make the team total. Going into the match, Nebraska and Oklahoma are slated No.1 and 2, but the linkmen boast a fast improving team.
Gene Rourke, co-holder of the Big Seven individual title from last year, probably will be the top Kansas contender. Following him closely will be John Prosser.

Kansas linkmen—with an eye toward the Big Seven championship tournament this weekend—broke a two year chain of ties with Kansas State college as they dropped the Wildcats Wednesday 14-4
Kansas City Dumps Toledo 5 to 0
Bv United Press
The game brought the Blues within in a half game of Milwaukee, the American association leaders. It also brought Erault a step closer to a no-hitter.
It was onward and upward for pitcher Ed Erault and Kansas City last night when the Blues pounded out a 5 to 0 decision over Toledo.
Erautt made his first bid for a perfect game less than a month ago when he hurled a three-hitter against Minneapolis. Last night, he showed he is still hot on the trail by holding the Mudhens to only two hits.
Milwaukee found no solace in Erault's feat. While he was starring at Kansas City, the Brewers were being raked over the coals at home, 4 to 3, by the underdog Columbus Red Birds.
at the Lawrence Country club.
Jayhawker Gene Rourke overcame five birdies fired by Bill Boggess to win a 3-0 shutout in the No. 1 match of the dual meet. Boggess ended with a 71, but Rourke shot 15 par holes and a birdie for a one over par 69.
Kansas tied a dual meet with the Wildcats earlier this year. In the two seasons preceding this, Kansas and Kansas State have played three consecutive tie games.
The win was the eighth for the Jayhawkers against two losses and a tie to Kansas State.
The summaries:
Gene Rourke, KU, defeated Bill Boggess, 3-0; Harlan Hise, KU, defeated Dale Elliott, 3-0; Rourke Hise, KU, defeated Bogggess-Elliott, 3-0; Bob Dare, KU, defeated Graham Hunt, $^{24}$ i-; Russell Hicks, KS, defeated Bob Lacy, 2-1 and Dare-Lacy, KU, and Hunt-Hicks, tie, 11-11.
