Two Top Dashmen Challenge Charlie Parker In Century
The 100-yard dash field in the 24th annual K.U. Relays tomorrow shapes up to be one of the best in years. Texas, winner of the last three seasons, again will be one of the favorites if Charlie Parker, runner up in last summer's N.C.A.A. 200 meters, has recovered from a pulled muscle.
His chief competition will come from two Colorado men, Don Campbell, Colorado U.'s Big Seven indoor 60-yard champ, and Jerome Biffle of Denver, victor over Campbell in the Colorado Invitational 60-yard dash recently.
Parker raced the century in :90.5 last year to come within one-tenth of a second of tying the relays record. But the tough Texan missed the Texas Relays recently because of a strained muscle and his trainer is still using the tape and liliment in an effort to get him ready for the coming test.
Before his injury Parker won both the 100 and 200-yard dashes in the Border Olympics and the Southwestern Exposition.
The Texas ace and Campbell will have a private feud to settle. Parker lost to Campbell in the 100 meters in the National Collegiate last year. The lean Buffalo defeated his rival and finished third behind Mel Patton of U.S.C. and Don Anderson of California.
Parker turned the tables in the 220 when he chased Patton home while Campbell was running fifth.
Campbell has also lost to Biffle in the indoor 60-yard sprint. Although the Buffalo set a new indoor conference record last February in Kansas City, Biffle blazed through the Colorado fieldhouse in the Colorado Invitational in .06:15 to edge out the speedy Big Seven representative.
The 6 foot, 2 inch 180-pound Bifle is strong in several sports, owning marks of 6 feet, $5\frac{1}{2}$ inches in the high jump and 23 feet, 9 inches in the broad jump.
Though Parker, Biffle, and Campbell will be the favorites several other sprinters may pull an upset. One contender is Ken Stivers of Denver who whipped Biffle in both
CHARLIE PARKER Can he repeat?
the 100 and 220 in Big Seven competition last May.
Parker's two stable mates, Perry Samuels, and John Robertson, also belong in the picture. Samuels was the 1947 Southwest 100-yard king and placed second at the Texas Relays this year. Robertson pulled a muscle in the Texas 880-preliminary and did not compete in the finals, but if he recovers may present a threat.
Nebraska has three potential winners in Harry Meginnius, Alan Thompson, and Dick Hutton. Meginnius came up with a *n*. 99.10 in the Kansas-Nebraska dual last week and his mates were right behind.
