Play Inside Against MU
Balked by rain the past week, Kansas and Missouri tangle today at Columbia in a Big Seven tennis match that will probably be the longest of the season for either team.
Coach Jim Seaver received word from Columbia Tuesday that today's match would have to be played inside on a wooden court, because Missouri's clay outdoor courts are still too soggy for use. This means that only one match can be played at a time instead of four or five.
"We have played all but one of our matches either on clay or concrete courts." "The only time we have used wooden courts was against Oklahoma at Norman when rain forced our match and we failed."
About an hour and quarter is required for each match, or about 10 hours to play the 10 matches on the lone court. Seaver was not too happy about the setup and was pessimistic about his squad's chances on the wooden court.
Seaver tried unsuccessfully to get today's match moved to Lawrence, and even dickered for the use of Stephens college courts, near the Missouri campus, but to no avail. On the basis of comparative scores against common foes the match shapes up as an even affair, although the Tigers will have the advantage of performing on their own court.
Kansas blanked Kansas State, 7 to 0, while the Tigers could only defeat the Wildcats, 5 to 2. Against Washington university Missouri fared slightly better than the Jayhawkers. The Bears dumped the Tigers, 6 to 1, twice and blanked Kansas twice, 7-0.
Manning Meets Richards
Missouri ace Rip Manning, who holds twin victories over Washington's diminutive star, Bob Ziervogel, clashes with Dick Richards in the feature. Richards was beaten by Ziervogel in their only meeting of the year in a close, three-set match.
In other matches, Glenn Tongier, Kansas, opposes George Stemmler; Hervey Macferran, Kansas, plays Bill Johnson; Dick Cray, Kansas, battles Bill Rowe; and Charlie Carson, Kansas, takes on Bill Lane. In doubles Manning and Johnson oppose Richards and Tongier; Stemmler and Rowe play Macferran and Carson.
Dillard Within 1 Of Rice's Record
Cleveland, May 12—UP)—The way was clear today for hurryin' Harrison Dillard to set a new world's record for consecutive track victories.
He won the 100-yard dash in 9.8 seconds, the 120 high hurdles in 14.1 and the 220 in 21.2.
Dillard raced to his 64th straight win Tuesday, and Saturday he'll run three more races. If he wins the first, he'll tie Greg Rice's record of 65 straight victories. And anything after that will set a new mark.
Dillard, the surest Olympic prospect since another Negro named Jesse Owens streaked down the cinder paths in 1936, hung up first numbers 62, 63, and 64 carrying Baldwin-Wallace colors Tuesday in a triangular meet.
Baldwin-Wallace won the meet with 122 points. Akron university scored 28 and John Carroll 3.
Manhattan, Kan., May 12—(UP) —The Kansas State Wildcats and the Oklahoma Sooners were even today as the Sooners nosed out Kansas State, 6 to 5, yesterday. The Wildcats took the first game Monday by a 5 to 1 score.
