Great Relays Expected; MU Heads Early Field
Missouri's Big Seven track champions are among the first list of preliminary entries for the 23rd Kansas Relays here as Director Bill Easton counted an initial group of six squads.
Included with the Tigers were Ottawa and College of Emporia of the Kansas conference; Washburn and Emporia Teachers of the Central conference and Wichita of the Missouri
The Tigers will present a host of three defending Big Seven outdoor champions and two 1948 indoor kings as well as the loop's championship mile relay foursome.
Loaded With Champs
These feature Dick Ault, the defending league outdoor 220-yard low hurdles and quarter-mile champ; Harry Guth, conference sprint king; Bud Gartiser, indoor hurdles record holder in both the highs and lows, and Mel Sheehan, brawny 1947 discus champ. Sheehan also won the Drake Relays platter crown last April. Guth recently waltzed off with the 70-yard dash championship of the Illinois Tech Indoor Relays at Chicago.
Another of the country's aces,
Harrison Dillard, Baldwin-Wallace's great Negro hurdler, is expected to head a fast field in the 120-yard barriers which also is slated to include last year's winner, John Smith of Notre Dame and Gartiser.
Texas Enters Field
In the 100-yard dash Texas' annual entry will assure a top field featuring Allen Lawler, two-time winner; Perry Samuels and the fabled Charlie Parker. Harry Guth, Missouri's Big Seven champion at every distance from 60 to 220 yards, also is expected to file an entry blank.
Lawler has been knocked out of early season meets because of an appendectomy, but should be ready to resume competition by Relays time.
K. U. Sponsors Champs
In the field events the Relays will present such luminaries as Fortune Gordien, the brawny Minnesota who won the discus crown here last year; Drake Sheehan, Big Seven and Drake Relays defending discus king from Missouri; Rollin Prather, Kansas State's towering conference indoor and outdoor shot champion; M.U.'s Ed Quirk, 1945 NCAA shot put titlist, and Stan Lampert, N.Y.U.'s tremendous weight heavier.
Junior Scofield, Kansas' National Tom A.A.U. champ and Big Seven indoor and outdoor high jump record holder, and John Robertson, Texas' talented broad jumper, will add luster to the infield events.
Irv "Moon" Mondschein, three-
times National A.A.U. decathlon
champ, is expected to head a heavy
field in this two-day grind.
In addition to the decathlon, a fixture on the Mt. Oread card, Olympic events on this year's roster include the 3,000 meter steeplechase, hop-step-jump, and 400 meter hurdles. The annual Glenn Cunningham Mile will be run over the 1500 meter distance to conform to Olympic measurements.
Among those already invited for this feature are Quinton Brelsford, Ohio Wesleyan; Bob Rehberg, 1946 N.C.A.A. and Big Nine mile camp from Illinois; Bill Mack, Michigan State, and Gil Dodds, the famous Pounding Parson, who at present is regarded as the nation's top miler. New High InPageantry
Topeka Center Is Scoring Champ
The meet will hit a new high in pageantry with a Saturday morning parade plus entertainment for visitation, sports and broadcasters and high school athletes.
The parade, which will wind down Massachusetts street the morning of the annual carnival, will feature competitive floats representing vari-
Topeka, March 22—(UF)—Jim McFarland, Topeka high school center was high scorer in the Kansas Class AA high school basketball tournament here. In four games he scored 55 points to edge Bob Kenney, flashy Winfield guard, who had 51.
Some 16,000 persons saw the tournament.
Varsity Golf And Tennis Practices Start This Week
With the official arrival of spring varsity golf and tennis candidates will turn out this week for initial meetings and practice sessions. Golfers will meet with Coach Bill Winey at 4 p.m. tomorrow in 203 Robinson, and tennis hopefuls are to report to Coach Jim Seaver on the concrete courts at 4 p.m. today.
Winey and Seaver are serving both their first term as University coaches. Winey, a College junior, lettered on the 1947 Jayhawker cochampionship golf team and is known in local golfing circles as an excellent shot-maker. Seaver, assistant professor of history, won varsity honors in the net game at Stanford university. As a high school star in Los Angeles, he played tennis against the now famous Bobby Riggs.
In Bill Jones, the K. U. golf team can boast one of the finest golfers in the Big Seven. In a conference match with Oklahoma the past season, Jones blazed out a record tieing 66 at Swope park in Kansas City to defeat Charlie Coe, who later won the Trans-Mississippi.
The Jayhawker golf and tennis squads will be built around a nucleus of three returning lettermen in each sport. In golf, Bill Jones, Bob Meeker, and Harold DeLongy are expected back from the 47 team. The tennis crew will be bolstered by Dick Richards, Bob Barnes, and Harold Miller. Other prospective tennis men and golfers have announced their intentions of reporting for spring sessions. Jones One of Best
Other Schools Unknown
Little is known at this point about the power of other Big Seven schools in either of these spring sports. Oklahoma, however, may again produce the teams to beat. In 1947, Kansas shared the conference golf crown with the Sooners, while in tennis the men from Oklahoma held undisputed first place.
Bob Meeker, a consistent point winner for last year's Jayhawkers, proved a steady competitor in the number two spot behind Jones. Harold DeLongy, third returning letterman, was an alternate fourth man in '47 and is noted for his long tee shots.
Dick Richards, last year's number one man on the K. U. tennis team, will again be counted on heavily to lead the net men. His doubles mate, Harold Miller, who played in the number four spot last spring, and Bob Barnes, a two-year letterman who held sixth spot, will also be on hand to carry on the net battle for the University.

The annual Kansas Relays party will be held Friday night, April 16, at the Eldridge hotel.
