Q. Anyone Seen Kelly?
A. 'He Went Thataway'
Columbia, Mo.—Anybody here seen Kelley?
Ask that question of any Colorado track fan, and the prompt reply, accompanied by a directional thumb, would be:
"He went thataway."
The reference, of course, is to Dole Kelley, the Big Seven's newest dash sensation. He currently shares marquee billing with Thane Baker, the sophomore specter from Kansas State—and Boulderites already are likening the 155-pound swiftly to Don Campbell—the Buffs' illustrious spinner of two seasons back.
Kelley now is one-up on Baker, after flashing home ahead of the Wildcat ace in the Colorado Relays century three weeks ago.
Originally a Southerner, but now residing in El Monte, Calif., Kelley enrolled at Colorado on the recommendation of his high school coach. Completely unimpressed by frequent Rocky Mountain snowfalls, he admittedly years to go back "where the oranges grow."
Some Big Seven coaches, duly noting Kelley's .09.7 triumph in the C.U. Relays, and subsequent sorties of .09.8 and .09.9, probably would shell out train-fare to accommodate the warm-blooded Californian.
Kelley, however, will travel east out of Boulder this week—one of the more-heralded members of Coach Frank Potts' cinder delegation to the Big Seven track and field showdown to be held on Rollins Field here this Friday and Saturday. He'll renew his rivalry with Baker in both the 100 and 220—events which will draw such competent speedsters as Bob DeVinney and Wally Beck, Kansas; Ladisle Stovall and Byron Clark, Missouri; Herb Hoskins, Kansas State, Quanah Cox, Oklahoma; and Lee Alexander, Nebraska.
The Buffalo squad finished second to Nebraska, just shading Kansas, in the 1950 conference outdoor meet, but appears too short-handed in more than half the events to place among the top four teams.
Besides Kelley, Colorado's like-
nest point-getters in the 23rd outdoor carnival are: Augie Raso another dash-man with a :99.9 century on the 1951 outdoor books: Merwin Hodel, strapping hurdler; Joe Gold, high-jumper; Wally Tanner, shot-putter; George Holley, javelinist and high-jumper; Ted Wassam, another javelin thrower; and Bob Klamann, discus thrower
Top-rated in this group are Kelley, Hodel, Tanner and Holley—with the latter a defending titlist. Holley had a winning cast of 204 feet 2 inches last year, and his best this season is 193 feet $7 \frac{1}{2}$ inches.
Hodel, the fullback-hurdler who prefers an iron-hard track, is a past Big Seven indoor champion in the lows, but did not compete outdoors last spring. He zipped over the high sticks in :14.7 to win his event in the Colorado Relays, and may be the topmost challenger for KU.'s Jack Greenwood to get past in the conference derby.
Tanner tossed the shot 50 feet 11 inches to nail the indoor crown two months ago, and his all-time outdoor peak is 51 feet 1 inch. He may have to stay in that vicinity to quell Oklahoma's Clair Mayes, whose 52 foot arch at the Texas Relays is the circuit's best put this spring. Closely bunched here are such entries as: Phil Brusca, Missouri's third-placer indoors; Jim Robertson, Iowa State sophomore; and Paul Grimm, Nebraska.
Gold and Holly give the Herd two jumpers who have topped the 6 feet 4 inch level. Gold failed to place outdoors at Lincoln last year, but was involved in a four-way tie for second place indoors.
And broad-jump hopes the Buffers might have entertained were snuffed out this week when Jimmy Armatas was called into the Army, and Nick Catalano's injury made his appearance here doubtful.
Blackwell Allows One Hit As Reds Down Braves
New York (U.P.)—Good bet for the 1951 season is that there will be at least one more no-hitter and, if the odds are right, pick Ewell Blackwell of the Cincinnati Reds to toss it.
The Cincy fans had a teeming anticipation for a while of a double no-hit battle since neither ace gave up a safe bounce until Bob Elliott, an old spoiler, nicked Blackwell for a fifth inning double. Bickford preserved his no-hitter until the sixth when Connie Ryan doubled, but in the seventh, Blackwell's battery-mate, John Pramesa, hit a homer and that was the whole story.
Blackwell, in winning his fifth straight game, struck out five and each of the three men he walked was nailed in a double play. Bickford struck out four and walked only one.
The one-hit effort by Blackie was the latest superlative effort in a low-hit season. Cliff Chambers of the Pirates already has pitched a no-hit, no-run game. One-hitters have been turned in by Sal Magliie of the Giants, and Connie Marrero of the Senators, and Joe Dobson of the White Sox.
Bickford, like Blackie, would be a good man to pick for a no-hit job since he turned in the only one of 1950 and had a two-hit victory this year before Tuesday night's defeat. Blackwell, who had a no-hitter in 1947, also had two one-hitters last
Another National League games Tuesday Brooklyn topped Chicago, 8 to 4; the Phillies edged the Cardinals, 5 to 4, and Pittsburgh defeated the Giants, 7 to 3. In the American League, the Tigers downed Washington, 12 to 4; Chicago trounced Boston, 9 to 7 in 11 innings; and the Browns won from the Athletics, 11 to 8.
The Dodgers improved their lead to a full game over the Braves by throwing their home-run punch into action. A grand slam homer by Duke Snider was the key blow.
Corbin Jays Win Softball Title
Pinch-hitting expert Bill Nicholson drove in two runs in the ninth inning with a single to give the Phillies their victory at St. Louis.
George Stricklad came out of a hitting slump to drive in five runs with two homers and a single as the Pirates won without difficulty from the Giants.
The Corbin Jays carried their string of championships onto the softball field Monday evening, and walked off with another women's intramural crown by defeating the Jayettes 8 to 7.
-Intramural
The Jayettes drew first blood with one run when LaVone Daily scored on a single by Jane Koelzer in the first inning, but the Jays came back with two runs in their half. Geneva Fleshman, Jay captain drew a walk, and Shirley Hillier got a hit. Both later scored.
Round-Up
The Jayettes again went ahead in the second inning on three consecutive tallies by Mary Dixon, Rita Speckin, and Nancy Moore. Shirley Mickelson scored in the Jay half, but Jacqueline Jones struck out the next three batters, and the Jayettes retained their lead.

In the third inning the Jayettes took a commanding 7 to 3 lead when Koelzer, Speckin, and Moore again scored. The Jays picked up another tally in their half on a home run by Joyce Herschell, but they still trailed by an uncomfortable margin.
The Jayettes went down in order in the fourth and the usually potent Jay hitting attack came to life. Constance Petterson, the winning pitcher, homered. Geneva Fleshman, Frances Pence, and Joyce Herschell all scored after her on a series of singles.
At the start of the last inning the Jays held a single point advantage and no Jayettes scored, so the Jays did it again.

St. Louis (U.F.)—A group of St.
Louis investment brokers has
bought the $700,000 note which the
DeWitt brothers owe for the St.

St. Louis Brokers Buy Browns' Note
The note was held by Richard Muckerman, former Browns owner. It represented the money the De-Witts—Charles and Bill—owed him for the ball club after their down payment.
The security on the note is the controlling interest in the American league baseball club.
