Jayhawks Tame'Cats For Second Dual Win
The University of Kansas track team tamed the Kansas State Wildcats 70 to 61 in a dual meet at Manhattan Saturday afternoon, to remain undefeated in Big Seven outdoor competition.
It was a nip and tuck battle all the way and the outcome of the meet was not decided until the final event, the mile relay, which the Jayhawkers
won going away. The relay team, composed of John Stites, Dick Wag-staff, Bill Binter, and Dick Shea, was too much for the Cat's quartet of quarter milers as they measured the distance in 3:22.
Big Rollin Prather, the Wildcat's star weight man, set a new record in the discus, sailing the platter 152 feet $2\frac{1}{4}$ inches. This toss bettered the existing meet record by nearly seven feet. The old record of 145 feet 7 inches was set in 1940 by Kansas State's Dick Peters. Prather also won the shot put with a heave of 51 feet $3\frac{1}{2}$ inches.
KU Runners Dominate
Kansas was strongest in the running events, winning five of the seven first places. John Stites breezed through the 440-yard dash in the fast time of 49.5. This is the best quarter turned in by a Jayhawk runner this year, Bill Binter followed Stites to the wire in the 440.
Dick Shea, the black haired Kansas half mile, ran the 890 yard run in 1:56.4 and finished well out in the final Winton Studt who placed second.
High point honors for the meet went to Rod McClay, Wildcat spinner and pole vaulter. McClay racked up 14 points for the Cat's cause. He won both the 100 and 220 yard dash, and tied Jayhawker Herman Wilson for first in the pole vault. Mile Is A Thriller
One of the best races of the afternoon was the mile run. Leasure of K-State lead throughout the first lap and then Bob Karnes stepped into the lead. At the three quarters mark Bob Karnes and Hal Moore became engaged in a dramatic race for the number one position. Moore passed Karnes at the final curve and sprinted ahead to win in the fast time of 4:21.
Karnes later came back strong to help the two-mile run. His time was 3:67.4.
Earl Elliot, K-State hurdler, tied the meet record in the highs by stepping the barriers in 14.9. The record is shared by two other K-Staters, Ed Marden and Dick Hotchkiss.

Kiner's Hitting And Fielding Keep Pittsburgh In First
New York, May 3- (UP)—Before there is any dancing in the streets of Pittsburgh the patient Pirate fans want to be sure that there is no repetition of the sad story of the 1947 season.
As the Pirates strut in first place today they're hoping that they'll stay there. But they can't help but remember that in the early stages of the
last campaign the Bugs also moved up front, but toppled to a tie for dead last with the Phillies by September.
Credit for yesterday's rousing 6 to 4 triumph over Ewell Black-well belonged almost wholly to their slugging star, Ralph Kiner, who crashed out two homers against the Cincinnati ace right hand, then wound up proceedings with a miraculous catch in left field that started a game-ending double play. Snider Has Bid Day
Duke Snider of the Dodgers also had a profitable day at the plate, hitting two homers, a triple and a single, and driving in four runs in 9 to 6 victory at Philadelphia. Later Brooklyn bats were silenced by Ken Heintzelman in a four-hit, 2 to 0 second game triumph.
The Giants cashed in on one big inning in which Johnny Mize hit a two-run homer, Willard Marshall smashed a triple and Walker Cooper got a double, putting over four runs on five hits to beat the Braves at New York. 5 to 1.
The Cubs rebounded against the Cardinals at St. Louis, ending a four-game losing streak with a 19-hit, 13 to 4 triumph in which they maltreated five redbird throwers. Peanuts Lowrey led the attack with four hits while Bill Nicholson hit his third homer.
Homer. Triple For Ted
Ted Williams went to town against the Yankees at Boston, hitting a three-run homer and a two-run triple in a 7 to 1 triumph.
Pitcher Freddy Hutchinson, helped the Tigers along the comeback trail by holding the Indians
Giants Lead Homer Derby
The Giants needed 13 games to pile up their total but, after a hectic weekend, the Indians are just one behind with 15—in five less games. The Yankees, who once counted the homer their personal apple, are only two back in two less games than the 13 played by the Giants.
New York, May 3—(UP)—The New York Giants are right up at the top of baseball's hit parade today with 16 home runs, but over in the American league the Cleveland Indians and New York Yankees seem to be muscling into the act.
Cincinnati holds the place position in the National league with 12 and much of that can be attributed to rangy Hank Sauer, the rookie flychaser, who heads the majors at the moment with a total of six. Walker Cooper is runner-up for the Giants with four.
Blues, Toledo Split In Last Place Fight
The Kansas City Blues and the Toledo Mudhens got nowhere Sunday in their battle to get out of the American Association cellar. Both had to settle for a tie for last place by splitting a doubleheader at Blues Stadium.
Totedo won the first game, 5-4, in ten innings. Reifer Jim Arnold was tagged with the loss. The Blues salvaged the nightcap, 2-1, on Johnny Mackinson's four-hit mound job. The Blues' record now stands at 8 victories and 13 losses.

to three hits in a 4 to 2 triumph at Cleveland.
The Athletics took over second place in the American League with a 4 to 3 triumph over the Senators at Washington as Joe Coleman pitched himself out of numerous jams. He gave up 10 hits and walked three, but bore down when the Nats got in a scoring mood. The second game was called because of rain in the second inning with Philadelphia leading, 3 to 1.
The St. Louis at Chicago doubleheader in the American league was rain out.
Scores 17 Under On Muddy Course
Landover, Md. May 3—(UP)—If there was such a thing as a form chart on professional golfers, today's issue would carry the notation "outstanding mudder" next to the name of "Skip" Alexander.
It was ability to play below par golf on a below water level course that enriched the Mid Pines, N. C., veteran by $2,200 for his victory in the open tournament. He completed his game Georges layout Sunday with a final round 68 for a 72-hole score of 271, 17 under par.
Bobby Locke got $1,600 for second place after opening a huge lead with a 13-under-par total on the first 36 holes.
