Jayhawks Lead Olympic Hopefuls into Big 7 Meet
Kansas' galloping Jayhawks will lead a field of America's brightest Olympic candidates into the 24th annual Big Seven conference track and field meet at Norman, Okla., Friday and Saturday.
Featuring such great distance runners as Wes Santee, Herb Semper, and Art Dalzell, Coach Bill Easton's Kansans will be leading the assault on best performances since the first conference meet in 1929 when it was still the Big Six.
Big Seven golf and tennis teams will decide 1952 championships on the same dates, in addition to the cinder carnival.
The Jayhawkers, Big Seven indoor track champions, are favored to win the outdoor festival won by Missouri last year.
Santee, who has been clocked unofficially in 4:06.7 and 4:07.2 miles, stands a good chance of shattering the meet record of 4:11.8 set last year by Bill McGuire of Missouri.
The new track at Oklahoma university is an east-west layout built more circular than the old Sooner track, and the sensational sophomore's chances look good. He ran a 4:08.8 mile last week at Manhattan in a dual meet with Kansas State.
Herb Semper, who has been pounding the cinders for Kansas for several years, will be aiming for the two-mile mark. He already has set a new Big Seven indoor record of
Delta Delta Delta, Cohops Winners In Women's Softball Quarter-finals
By JACKIE JONES
Delta Delta Delta and the Cohops advanced into the semi-final round of the women's intramural softball program with victories yesterday over Chi Omega and Kappa Alpha Theta respectively.
The quarter-finals saw the tri-drills take a lap-sided, 12 to 2, win over the Chi O's, and the Cohops apped a third-inning rally by the Theta's to win their game, 7 to 6.
In the other game of the afternoon, Corbin hall 2 defeated Kappa Kappa Gamma in a division playoff. The results of the contests will move the Corbin team against the Hawks in the semifinals and the Javettes in the semi-finals at 4 p.m. today on the intramural diamonds south of the campus.
In the Cohop-Theta game, the freshman took a 2 to 0 lead in the first inning and never relented. Neither team was able to score in
the second, but in the third Theta's rallied for 4 runs to take the lead.
In the fourth inning, the freshmen scored three times while the Theta's were getting a single run to tie the score. Going into the last with a run and the Theta's were inning, the Cohops came through unable to score.
The Cohop scoring was done by Torneden, Nelson, Sutton, Kirchman, Anderson, Bradstreet, and Sutton. The pitcher for the winners was Gloria Nelson.
Sue Neff did the hurling for the
Theta's, while their scoring was done by Seaman, Ashton, Kagey, Baker, Quinn, and Neff.
The tri-Delt's had little trouble in defeating the Chi O's, as the pitching of Pat Garrett was too much for the opposition.
The Chi O's scored both of their runs in the first inning and were then unable to counter again.
The tri-Delt's scored one in the first, two in the second, eight in the third, and once in the fourth.
Pat Garrett helped her own cause by beginning the tri-Delt scoring. She tallied the first run for the winners.
Giants, Dodgers, Indians Must Bear 'Burden of Proof'
But it was necessary only to go back to last season to see that slow starting teams can hit the stretch at full speed and beat out the sprinters.
New York—(U.P.)-The burden of proof was on the Giants, Dodgers, and Indians today to show that they can keep up their training first month's pace through the remainder of the major league season.
And as the teams squared off for the second month of competition, the evidence was against them doing it. That was in spite of the fact that after four weeks of play they definitely looked like the three best teams in operation this year.
The Giants, from their best road trip since 1916 when they won 26 games in a row on foreign fields, will open against Cincinnati's surprisingly sharp Reds. New York has won 10 of its last 11 games. The Dodgers entertain the slow-starting Cardinals in the only afternoon game in the majors, while the Cubs play at Philadelphia, and the sad-sack Pirates are at Boston. The Cubs, like the Reds, have
The Giants at this stage a year ago, when they had bogged down in an 11-game losing streak, were in last place with a 7-13 won and lost record. Today, they are off to their best start since the 1945 war-time season with a 8-6 win. The 1946 and 1947 seasons they were 16-4 and on to make it 20-5 before they faded. And fade they did, winding up in fifth place.
Over the 154-game marathon grind, it is seldom that teams can dominate the pace all the way. The other super-Yankee teams used to do it, the Red Sox did it in 1946, and from time to time there are others that stay up most of the way.
In the East-West competition beginning today, the Yankees open tonight in Cleveland where they again face Gromek who pitched a four-hit shutout against them in his last start, just a week ago. Rookie Bill Miller, a poised lefty, will go for the Yankees.
Washington, astonishing everyone with its spurt which has netted eight victories in nine games, plays the seemingly demoralized Tigers in Detroit, while Boston is at Chicago and the Athletics at St. Louis. All are night games.
boomed into the first division on top-flight pitching. The Phils, Braves, and Pirates have shown little to indicate they can move up as the race goes on.
In the only game scheduled yesterday, the Dodgers and Phils were rained out. ___
9:05 March 1 after running the mile first.
In the second, Earlywine and Quinn scored, and then in the third Warner, Endacott, Loveless, Earlywine, Quinn, Fordham, and Garrett each scored.

Yesterday's Results
Bob DeVinney, another Kansas stalwart looking toward the Olympics, will be running the hurdles. DeVinney added a national collegiate record to his collection when he ran the 440-yard hurdles in 52.4 seconds at the Drake relays.
The victory leaves the tri-Delt's undefeated this season, and they should be an equal match for the also undefeated Jayettes today.
Not to be counted out of the Olympic laurels are Art Dalzell and Jim Floyd. Dalzell is a half-miler and ran 1:51.1 in a dual meet against K-State. Floyd is the holder of the Big Seven indoor championship record in the pole vault.

Thane Baker of Kansas State is another great runner who will be at the meet. He is the defending champion in the 100 and 220-yard dashes and holds the Michigan State indoor relays record of 30.8 for 300 yards on a tiny track.

freshman star, The Sooner shipped by him by inches with a 48.7 time at Norman in March in a dual meet run in near-blizzard conditions.
Semper will see his biggest trouble in Missouri's Bob Fox. Fox ran a 9:18 two mile at the Drake relays to win the event. The Big Seven record set by Houston to secure two-milers aiming to crack that mark will be Oklahoma's Warren Rouse and Jerry Piper of Missouri.
A re-count of the Kansas-Oklahoma mile relay duel at the Drake relays which the Jayhawkers won in 3:13.1 is also predicted. The Big Seven mark is 3:17.6 set by Kansas State in 1936.
