Drake Relays Open Today
Des Moines, Iowa, April 25—(UP) Star performers among 1,000 college and university athletes menaced a half dozen records as the Drake Relays opened today.
Drake marks in the shot, discus, university sprint medley relay, the high jump and 100-yard dash were due for changes as tracksters from 60 schools went all-out before an audience expected to number 10,000 both today and tomorrow.
Oldest of the records considered likely to fall were in the high jump, where Harold Osborne of Illinois set a mark of 6 feet 6 inches in 1922, and in the 100-yard dash, where the 9.5 seconds run by Roland (Gipper)
Locke of Nebraska has stood since 1926.
Texas University was favored to set a new mark in the University sprint medley today. The Longhorns, led by Billy Scaldell and Co-Captain Fred Ramsdell, already have bettered the world mark by running the distance in 3:24 this spring at Austin Relays. Against them will be pitted fast outfits from Michigan, Ohio State, Louisiana State and Nebraska.
Jack Hughes of Texas and Al Blozis of Georgetown headline the finals in the discus, and Blozis, holder of the world's indoor shot put record at 56 feet, 6 inches, will attempt to better the world's outdoor mark of 57 feet 1-5-8 inches.
In a special exhibition tomorrow, little Greg Rice of Notre Dame will run a mile and a half against an invited former college foursome of John Munski, Missouri; Forrest Effaw, Oklahoma A. A & M., and Ralph Schwartzkopf, Michigan. Rice will try for a world mark to go with his two and three-mile laurels.
In the high jump Saturday, Don Boydston, Oklahoma A. & M.; Dub Walters, Baylor; Keith O'Rourke, Notre Dame, and Captain Don Canham, Michigan, all have bettered Osborne's mark.
The 100-yard preliminaries today will draw a half dozen of America's fastest sprinters since Jesse Owens tied Locke's mark in 1935 and Ralph Metcalfe equalled it in 1932.

Ramie Beims and Louis Thompson, lettermen, will hold down left and right fields respectively while Larry Johnston. a senior playing his first year of baseball, will be in center.
