KU Men Place In Drake Relays
Robert Lillibridge led the K.U. group to place second in the broad jump. Frank Stannard was third in the high hurdles and Jim Richey was third in the 440-yard dash. Leroy Robison also placed third in javelin throwing as did Tom Scofield in the high jump. Taking fifth place in the mile relay were Lynn Leight, Frank Stannard, Bob Lillibridge, and Jim Richey.
Placing second in one event, third in four, and fifth in one was K.U.'s record at the Drake relays won by Illinois Saturday. Six men made the trip with Coach Ray Kanehl. On the whole the meet was rather unstartling with no records being broken. Although it was a fair day, the track was in bad condition from recent rain, and the men had a heavy wind against them, said Coach Kanehl.
Iowa State did well in distance relays. It placed fourth in the high hurdle. Missouri's Bangert took first with the shot. Kratz, of Nebraska, placed in the quarter mile run.
Illinois' Clarke (Buddy) Young, a 17-year-old freshman, was the sensation of the meet. He won the broad jump, defeated seven rivals in the 100-yard dash, and was anchor man in two of the four relays Illinois won. "Life" magazine feature the Young family in an article a short time ago. Mrs. Young, a Negress, and former track star, has coached all of her children. The Drake reails was Young's first major outdoor competition.
This Saturday a tri-meet will be held here with Nebraska, K-State, and K.U. competing. Since Pittsburg Teachers has called off all meets, the one Saturday will be our last home meet.
