Many Texas Relay Winners Will Compete In KU Relavs
Many relay winners at the Texas Relays will be in Lawrence Friday, April 22 and Saturday, April 23, for the 24th annual Kansas Relays.
Kansas' distance medley and four mile champs will, of course, participate. The Oklahoma Aggies will run in the sprint medley, the two mile race, and the half-mile relay. A flying foursome from Oklahoma will compete in the 440 sprint, and the $ ^{\circ}$
Texas Aggies will defend their mile pennant for the fourth consecutive time.
In addition to the quartets, three individual Texas winners will compete in the big gray stadium. They include Rollin Prather of Kansas State, Ray Marek of Texas, and John Robertson also of Texas.
Though the Jayhawkers won by 35 yards in each of their Austin victories, Wisconsin and Missouri may give them plenty of trouble in the distance medley. The Kansas team went the distance in 10:25 last week but Texas clipped the crown here last year in 10:18. Wisconsin came in third and shapes up as a strong threat for the title this year.
The long four-mile grind seems a little safer for K.U. At Texas the crew won in the time of 17:41.9. Last year Texas A. and M. took the event in the Kansas meet making the rounds in 18:02.5.
The Oklahoma Aggies will field two members of their winning 1948 sprint medley squad in John Voight and Harold Tarrant. The vacated positions have been competently filled, however, for the new bunch scurried 3:32.4 in the Longhorn contest, a tenth of a second better than the did here last year.
In the two-mile contest the Aggies will go up against Nebraska again. The Oklahomaans beat out the Huskers by five yards at Austin in a close, tough battle. Overshadowing both Big Seven squads will be the Wisconsin defending champions who broke the K.U. two-mile record last season.
The Badgers have Don Gehrmann,
N.C.A.A. mile champion, who will
hold down the all-important anchor
lan.
The Huskers and Cowpokes will meet in the half-mile relay also. The Aggies edged Nebraska by inches last week, Missouri and Colorado will have something to say about this one.
Oklahoma may have things its own way in the quarter. The Sooners hit 42 for their Texas win but Nebraska wasn't far behind. Beside

the Cornhuskers, the Sooners could have trouble with Texas, defending champion. It all depends how Charlie Parker and Robertson recover from leg injuries. Both are members of the Texas championship squad of last year which won in :414.

The seventh Austin relays winner to try for a victory here will be the Texas Aggies. In the 23rd Kansas Relays the Texans sped to a new record in the mile relay doing the job in 3:15.6. Two of the championship crew will be back. This pair along with two replacements hit 3:17.3 in winning the southern race.
All of the individual entries. Prather, Marek, and Robertson will have to better their scores made last week if they win here. Prather specializes in the shot put, Marek in the javelin, and Robertson in the broad jump.
Emporia State Wins Meet From Wichita

Pensacola, Fla., April 7—(U.P.) — Erv Dusak, an outfielder by trade, was set to make another stab at a pitcher's job today when he takes the mound for the St. Louis Cardinals in an exhibition game against the Cincinnati Reds.
Dusak held the Reds to one run in five innings last Sunday.
The six-foot, three-inch infielder boasts a total of 10 home runs this spring, second by one only to Sid Gordon of the New York Giants on the Citrus circuit.
Dallas, Texas, April 7—(U.P.)—Now that he seems to have learned how to hit, big Roy Smallay today promised to become the great shortstop the Chicago Cubs always said he would be.
The Reds are fresh from beating the Boston Braves, five games to two. Cincinnati won the finale in the series yesterday, 7 to 0, behind the eight-hit hurling of Johnny Vander Meer and Happy Gumbert.
Smalley clouted his ninth and 10th homers yesterday to lead the Cubs in an 8 to 5 win over the St. Louis Browns.

Orlando, Fla., April 7—(U.P.)—Bobo Newsom was angling today to get back in the major league with the Washington Senators, one of his legion of "old teams."
The much-traveled Newswom, now with the Senators' Chattanooga farm team, found the Senators desperate for pitchers because of injuries, so put in his bid to return. However, Senator President Clark Griffith was going slow about the 41-year-old hander.
The Senators beat Kansas City, 3 to 1 yesterday.
Kappa Sigma Wins 'A' Title In Close Three Match Game
Kappa Sigma today reigned supreme over Hill "A" division volleyball teams, but was still shaking from the stunning surprise it received in the fraternity-independent championship series Wednesday night.
The Kappa Sigs, rated a top heavy pre-tournament favorite, had to go three matches Wednesday to topple Phi Gams "C" squad, the independent "A" division winners. The Phi Gam's $ \textcircled{8} $
took the opener 15 to 10 but the Kappa Sigs then fired back Gordon Stuck an Fadler, and Lou £
to take 15 to 2 and 15 to 7 vertices. But despite their lop-sided decisions in the final two matches the Kappa Sigs were the team which enabled them to rip through an eight-game season undefeated. Playing without ace set-up man Bill Sapp the Kappa Sigs were slow to whip into action.
Neat spiking and defense play by
The new champions found themselves trailing 11 to 4 hardly after the first match was underway and although they put up a last-minute struggle they were unable to catch up. With the screaming spikes of Roy Shoaf and Maurice Martin, showing the way the Kappa Sigs breezed to victory in the next two matches. The well-placed set-ups of Duane and Archie Unruhn also were a contributing factor in the Kappa Sigma win.
