High School Track, Field Meet Will Be Held Here Friday
Marysville, Class A, and Pretty Prairie, Class B. will be hard pressed to repeat their last year's championships in the University's annual interscholastic track and field meet for high schools here, Friday. Both teams will be trying for their third straight crown.
Outstanding event in Class A will be the mile run. This event will bring together two 1946 state champions.
Because of an increase in his school's enrollment, Elwin Becker off St. Peter and Paul high school, Seneca, last year's Class B mile king, will be running Class A competition. His winning time last year was 4:38.3. Cory Against Becker
His fellow titleholder is Bill Cory of Concordia, who won the Class A state mile in 4:40. Pressing them will be Solomon Flores of Rosedale and Charles Exline of Marysville.
Three of last year's point winners in the 100-yard dash here will return. They are Gerald Briney of Beloit; Wally Elstun of Sterling and John Trost of Concordia. Also well up in this event should be Berdell Lindsey of Paola and Atherton of Garnett.
To Defend Championship
In the quarter-mile, John Carmody of St. Joseph, Hays, is the defending state champion. Merle Vansholtz of Chapman, who took the number two spot in that event will also be here. More than adequate competition will be provided them by Elstun; Harold Kellar of Paola; the Margrave twins from Sabetha and Forrest Morris of Holton.
Tough competition will be found in the 220. The two top quarter-milers, Carmody and Vansholtz, are expected to double in this event. They will clash with such speedsters as Briney; Elstun; Ralph Tidwell of Marysville and Jack Thomas of Neodesha.
To Compete In Hurdles
10. Compete In the high hurdles, three point winners from last year will match strides. They will be Lyle Mellen of Fredonia; Ed Dill of Sterling and Charles Hall of Marsville.
Some of the best among the low hurdlers are Dill, who was third at the state meet; Jack Bergen of Marysville and Dean Pryor of Frederick. Dill also ranks well up in the high jump, where he will battle Ralph Murphy of Rosedale, last year's winner, and Jack Oliver of Neodesha.
A good battle in the shot put and discus throw is pending between big Jim Sacrider of Wamego and Jack Renner of St. Joseph. Pat McClellan of Turner isn't conceding anything in the shot put, however, and Ell Matthew of Concordia also may finish high.
Hob Diel of Highland Park will be back to defend the broad jump title he won here last year, against such leapers as Bob Hards of Hiwatha and Chamman's Valsholtz.
Defend Class B Ranks
Defending Class B state champions in three events are back in action and may compete here, although definite word has not been received. This trio is composed of Charles Parrish of College high, Pittsburg, in the quarter-mile; Walter Stumps of Holyrood, in the shot put; and Calvin Wiley of Sedgwick, in the high jump.
Outstanding performer in Class B is expected to be Bob Miller, sprint sensation from the Kansas School for the Deaf. Last year the blond speedster chalked up marks of 10 flat in the 100-yard dash and 22.3 for the 220. A pair of sprinters from Haven, Junior Guhl and Vernon Bogner may give Miller his best competition.
Hoskins To Defend Title
Back to defend his title in the broad jump will be Harold Hoskins of Bennington, whose leap of 22 feet $2\frac{1}{2}$ inches, at the state meet, was the best jump made in any class last season. Attempting to dethrone him will be Dick Haas of Overbrook; Frank Lewis of Valley Falls and Dale Davis of Norwich.
Parrish's competitors in the 440 will include a pair of dash men who won their sections of that event here last year, Albert Baker of Esbon and Norwich's Davis.
Winters Half-Mile
Ranked high among half-mile entrants in Carl Timberlake 6f Powhattan. Timberlake took second a year ago and later won the event place in his section of the 880 here
at the regional. Estes of Norwich also should finish well up in this event.
Favored in the discus throw will be Del Lindblad of Courtland. He sailed the disc 131 feet to take first at the Sterling relays.
Best marks to date in the javelin have been posted by Tom Bell of Arma who throws it more than 150 feet.
Tennis Team Defeats Nebraska, Washburn
In both contests, the Jayhawkers were able to use some second team men and rest some first stringers. Erwin Busiek, last year's tenth ranking junior player, returned to top form in the Washburn matches, pulling Jayhawkers out of their biggest trouble in the top singles and doubles matches.
The University tennis team was victorious over two opponents during the weekend. Friday afternoon the Jayhawkers trounced Nebraska 6 to 1, in a non-conference match. Saturday they played Washburn at Topeka and came home with a 7 to 0 victory in a match played indoors on wood because of the rain.
Hervey MacFerran and Evan Francis, Topeka freshmen, displayed smooth teamwork in their doubles match against Washburn and will be given a chance to play more this week. The two played together in high school tennis, but participated in their first collegiate match this weekend.
'Southpaw' Truman Opens Season Today
Washington — (UP) — President Truman, who hasn't done any pitching since he threw Henry Wallace out of the cabinet, opens the 1947 major league baseball season today with a left-handed toss.
Two minutes later, at 3 p.m. EST, professionals will take over the pitching chores as the Washington Senators and New York Yankees start playing for keeps. The other 14 major league clubs don't make their debut until Tuesday.
Bobo Newsom, a man of a few thousand words and pitching gestures, drew the coveted opening day pitching assignment for the Senators. For the Yankees, it will be Floyd Bevens, like Newsom a right hander.
The game marks the debut of Bucky Harris, the "boy wonder" who piloted Washington to a world championship in 1924, as manager of the Yanks.
The Yankees will lack the hitting job of a robbing ground with an all-inclue ball.
George B. Smith, dean of the School of Education, spoke on "The Colleges and The Exceptional Child" at the State Conference on Exceptional Children held Thursday in Topeka.
Dean Smith Speaks At Child Conference
First conference of its kind to be held in Kansas, the meeting was voted by members to be called "The Bert A. Nash Memorial Conference on Exceptional Children" in memory of the late professor of education, who instigated and completed plans for the meeting before his death last month.
Miss Quintilla Anders, of the staff of the University of Kansas hospital, was discussion leader at the conference, and Miss Margaret Anderson, associate professor of speech, participated in the program.
