KU Wants No Wind At Drake
Coach Bill Easton's Kansas track squad travels to Des Moines today for the Drake Relays, and the Jayhawkers are hoping they won't find the brisk wind which bothered them at their own Kansas Relays the past week end.
That wind demolished all hopes Easton's four-mile relay squad of Cliff Abel, All-American Pat Bowers, Captain Bob Karnes, and Herb Semper had of setting an American intercollegiate record for the event. They had come within 4.8 seconds of the mark earlier this month at the Texas Relays. At their own carnival, they were a disappointing 18.2 seconds from the mark although they did nail down the Re-lays record.
The intercollegiate mark is 17:16.1.
At Texas they ran 17:20.9. Their mark Saturday was 17:34.3. They also will be after the Drake record of 17:29.6.
Easton will send three relay teams and six, individuals into competition.
The list of K. U.'s individual entries is headed by revenge-bent Jack Greenwood. The Jayhawk hurdler was defending champion in the 120-yard highs at the Kansas Relays and he didn't so much as make his way into the finals Saturday. Now he's dead set on proving it was just a bad day. However, he'll be bothered by a knee injury received during practice Tuesday.
Friday the four-mile relay team makes its bid. Saturday the Jayhawkers will enter the two-mile and distance medley relays. That means they'll be after a triple crown similar to the one they got at Texas. At the Mt. Oread Olympics they entered only the four-mile.
Abel, Bowers, Karnes, and Semper make up the two-mile squad as well as the four-mile. Then Semper drops out for the distance medley and Emil Schutzel or Bob Devinney steps in to run the quarter mile leg.
Other Javhawker individuals entered are Bob Broady, discus; Bol Drumm, javelin; Del Norris and Bil Richardson, high jump; and Devinney, hurdles.
The contingent leaves Lawrence by train Thursday night, excepting the four-mile team which goes by plane Thursday afternoon because it will compete Friday.
Jayhawkers Split With Washburn
The Jayhawkers split with the Washburn Ichabods—winning in golf and losing in tennis—in matches played Wednesday at Topeka. Coach Bill Winey's golfers swamped the Ichabods, $13\frac{1}{2}$ to $4\frac{1}{2}$, while Dick Richards' tennis team was nipped, 4 to 3.
It was the second win in as many starts for the golf team. The tennis team has dropped two of three matches. Both will see action again Saturday against Missouri here. The meets will start at about 1:30 p.m.
Dick Ashley, Big Seven conference golf champion in 1949, and Clayton Kline, three-time champ of the Central Intercollegiate conference, hooked up in the top match of the day. Ashley stroked a 73 for KU to win medalist honors and gain a 2 to 1 point edge over Kline. The Washburn ace carded a 77.
Jayhawkers Dave Dennis and Howard Logan also out-pointed their opponents—Dennis, 3 to 0, and Logan, 2 to 1. Bob Dare, Kansas' fourth man, was out-scored by his opponent, 1 to 2.
The tennis match was close all the way with each point hard fought. Kansas lost the number one singles, but took a 3 to 1 lead by sweeping the No. 2, 3, and 4 singles. Washburn then rallied to take the other singles and both doubles for the victory.
Bob Swartzell, Charles Crawford,
and John Freiburger, who replaced
letterman Jack Ranson on this trip,
won their singles matches.

Women Show They Can Hit Two Teams Get 60 Runs
Slowly catching up on their rain-delayed schedule, women's intramural softball teams cleared another three games off the boards Wednesday, engaging in a slug-fest for two of them.
Chi Omega edged Alpha Fni 3 in an evenly-matched contest that turned into a pitcher's duel after the first inning when the winners rolled in four of their runs.
Corbin smashed out a 20 to 2 victory over Alpha Chi Omega with their usual championship style. A homer by Mary Lou Conrod with bases loaded helped set them up.
Sigma Kappa snowed Gamma Phi Beta under with a 40 to 9 total in a merry-go-round hatting spree. Hardly gaining even a good practice from the game. Sigma Kappa rolled in many of the runs in the last inning.
