Olympics Will Be Goal Of Many Relay Entries
With the first Olympiad since 1936 as their goal, track aces from coast to coast have indicated they will compete here April 17 in the twenty-third unfolding of the Kansas Relays.
Meet Director Bill Easton, who received a preliminary entry return of 37 universities and colleges, expects to draw a full squad from George
representing the Pacific slope, and at least two men, Irvin "Moon" Mondschein, three-time National A.U. A.decathlon champion, and shot-putter Stan Lambert from N.Y.U., before the April 9 deadline.
The lure of the Relays' Olympic card, which will include the 3,000 meter steeple chase, 1500 meter run, and 400 meter hurdles as well as the decathlon, also will draw clubs from as far north as Minnesota and as far south as Austin, Texas. Both the Golden Gophers and Clyde Littlefield's Longhorns have indicated they will send a full squad of performers.
Gordien Top Discus Hope
The Gophers boast the nation's top Olympic discus hope in Fortune Gordien, who automatically ascribed to the No. 1 spot when Bob Fitch, another Minnesota, took over football coaching duties at Augustana thus eliminating him from the amateur rank. Fitch set a world's record two years ago of $180 \cdot 2\%$ "at Minneapolis. Gordien has grazed 180 feet and will be a threat to the present KU, mark of 171 $\cdot 6\%$" which Indiana's Archie Harris established here in 1941.
Texas, as usual will present an Olympic spring hope in Charlie Parker who rambled the 100 yard dash in :69.5 the past week at the Fort Worth Southwestern Recreation carnival.
Southern Methodist and Arkansas have indicated they will make their first post-war jaunt to Lawrence as has Western Michigan which boasts a top-drawer performer in hurdler-jumper Ed Taylor. Wheaton college of Wheaton, IL., is slated to make its first appearance here.
Other Olympic Hopefuls
Doubtless this galaxy will produce several more Olympic finalists in addition to Mondschein, Parker and Gordien. To mention a few this list will include Kansas' Tom Scoefeld in the high jump; Mel Sheehan, Missouri discus pegger; Jerry Thompson, Texas N.C.A.A. two-mile champion, and Harrison Dillard, Baldwin-Wallace's hurdler.
In the past the Mt. Oread show has provided the United States team with some of its bright Olympic stars. Most notable were the last two decathlon champions, Jim Bausch of Kansas, who captured the 1932 banner at Los Angeles, and Glenn Morris of the Denver Athletic club, who galloped home in front at Berlin in 1936. Bausch wore Relays titles here and the 32 point win for the 38 pantam with a record total of 7,573 points. Bausch scored 8,022.40 under the old point system in '32. Many Olympic Champs.
The 32 carnival also featured George Sealing, Iowa's great high hurdler, who ran a 14.6 flight here its way to the American Olympic team.
The Hawkeyes' 1932 Olympic broad jump champion, Ed Gordon, still holds the Relays mark in that event at $^{25}$ 4 3-4". No other Relays competitor ever has surpassed the 25 foot mark.
One of the first Olympic champs to compete in the Jayhawker cadival was John Kuck, Emporia Teachers, who won the world's shot put title in 1928 with a pitch slightly beyond 52 feet. Kuck won the event here at $49^{\frac{1}{2}}$ "in" $26^{\frac{1}{2}}$ his javelin heave of $206^{\frac{1}{2}}$ "a" the same year stood as a Relays record until 1937 when Hardin-Simmons' Alton Terry fired javelin $229^{\frac{1}{4}}$ to establish the present mark.
Sam Francis A Titleholder
Sam Francis, the old Nebraska football all-American, won a pair of shot put titles here in 1936 and 1937, placing third at the Olympics games the first year.
The Jayhawkers' Glenn Cunningham won five mile and 1500 meter titles on his home grounds while earning places on two Olympic teams. 1932 and 1936.
Oddly enough two of America's brightest Olympic performers, Eddie Tolan and Ralph Metcalf, who ran one-two in both the 100 and 200 meters at Los Angeles in '32, never
Tulsa, Okla., March 30—(UP)—The University of Tulsa today announced a tentative seven-game schedule for the Golden Hurricane's first baseball squad since 1934.
The Hurricane nine will begin the schedule here April 20 against Oklahoma A. & M. Athletic Director W. E. Morris, Jr. said.

St. Petersburg, Fla., March 30—(UP)—This is a do or die year for the St. Louis Cardinals.
If they don't win the National League pennant this coming season, the chances are that it will be a long time before they get back into swing of championship things.
KU Is Second In Big 7 Total

The Newest: A Triple Spout
Cleveland,—(UP)—A three-in-one faucet, designed to draw cola drinks, ginger ale, and soda from the same spout, has been developed, the magazine Refrigeration Industry reported.
won a KU Relays championship although they competed in the century. Thompson of Minnesota cut out a .99.7 to win the 100 in '32.
They have little new blood but they are loaded for bear with veterans, and some of them may be nearing the end of the major league trail. But if the old timers can come up with another good year, they promise to be a little bit more than such clubs as the Dodgers, Braves and Giants could handle.
Last year, the Cards had miserable luck with player after player coming up with injuries and with the pitchers developing all sorts of arm miseries. Manager Eddie Dyer thought that the club simply couldn't have as much trouble again this season, but it looks like the old jinx is still at work. The Redbirds' peerless shortstop, Marty Marion, has a knee injury which might well end his major league career.
Injury Jinx Hits Marion
Marion injured the knee in practice last week and unless he recovers sufficiently to play at his old form, the club's pennant chances are going to be dark. Dyer hasn't a top-flight replacement for Marion. It fact it looks ow as though he will move Al "Red" Schoendlienst to shortstop and rookie Bob Young, up from the Rochester Redwings, to second base.
If that doesn't go, he will try Bernie Creger, potentially a great defensive star but still a little green, at Marion's spot. But he's hoping that Mr. Shortstop himself will be out there every day, and according to club surgeon Dr. Robert Hyland, the injury is not too serious, provided it isn't aggravated.
The group which Dyer is whipping into shape here is a far cry from the days of the Gas House Gang. But that doesn't mean they lack spirit. They have it in carload lots. Dyer Is Confident
Dyer doesn't agree with those who feel the Cardinals of today are on their last legs. He thinks guys like Stan Musial, Enos Slaughter, Whitey Kurowski, Howie Pollet and Harry Brecheen have more than one more year of top flight baseball left in their system.
"We lost to the Dodgers last year because we couldn't match their reserve power." Dyer said. "I felt then, and I feel now, that we had the best starting team in the league. But when we had to call on pinch hitters and other reserves we fell a bit short. I don't think we are going to suffer like that this year."

Oilers, Kentucky Clash In Pre-Olympic Finals
New York. March 30—(UP)—With absolutely no form sheets for guidance, the Phillips Oilers of Bardlesville, Okla., today were ranked as heavy favorites to beat the University of Kentucky in the final round of the Olympic basketball tryouts tomorrow night.
But the game derives interest from the fact that it will be the most heralded clash in court history of a national A.A.U. champion and a national collegiate champion. The Oilers, A.A.U. titlists, were picked to win easily.
Actually, there will be little at stake in the game because both Phillips and Kentucky now are assured of $ \textcircled{4} $
Aktually, there will be little at st and Kentucky now are assured of having five men each on the Olympic squad.
The Oklahoma quintet has impressed the fans here with its apparently unlimited power and ability to make the score whatever it chooses. In trouncing the Denver Nuggets in the semi-finals last night, 69 to 40, repeating a victory they scored in the A.A.U. tournament, the Oilers won without being extended.
Bob "Foothills" Kurland, the 7-foot redhead, plunked in 21 points for the Oilers and was literally their tower of strength under the backboards. Six-foot, 7-inch Gordon Carpenter supported Kurland with 15 points.
Kentucky, a crowd-pleaser with its flashy, dashing style, ran rough-shot over Baylor, 77 to 59, and thus repeated its victory in the finals of the N.C.A.A. tournament last week.
Demand In Technical Fields
Morgantown, W. Va.,— (UP) —Graduates in technical fields will find their services in great demand, Harry E. Stone, director of placements at West Virginia University, has advised seniors.
Nontechnically trained graduates are in less demand, but most seniors should have no trouble in finding a job unless an unforeseen business drop occurs before June, Stone added.
Farm animals do not make economical gains when fed corn alone.
Diverse Citizenship Unruled
Oklahoma City — (UP) — Federal courts have no jurisdiction in suits brought by women for support of illegitimate children, Bower Broaddus, U. S. district judge, ruled. That applies even when the parties are residents of different states, Broaddus declared in ordering the child support part of a suit brought by a Texas woman against a wealthy Oklahoma rancher dismissed.
