Wisconsin Buries Kansas Jayhawks Collect Softball Results Only Two Firsts
BY C. A. GILMORE
The University of Wisconsin Badgers defeated the Jayhawk tracksters 91 $ _{1/2} $ to 39 $ _{1/2} $ in a dual meet held in Memorial stadium yesterday afternoon.
The loss was a costly one for the Jayhawks as Bob Stoland and J. R. Jones, ace jumpers, suffered pulled muscles and will probably be shelved for the remainder of the season.
The Jayhawkers, entering the meet decided underdogs, scored only two firsts but garnered numerous seconds and thirds for their points. Norman Sanneman leaped 6 feet 4 inches to win the high jump and Dick Edwards won the two mile race in the time of 9:46.7. Bob Stoland jumped 6 feet 2 inches to place second behind Sanneman in the high jump.
Edwards Loses Lead
Edwards was defeated by a wide margin in the mile after leading up to the final lap. "Howie" Schoenike, Badger star, overtook him in the backstretch, and went on to win in the comparatively slow time of 4:27.2. The Kansar runner beat off Stafford's finishing kick to gain runner up position. Schoenike and Stafford battled with Don Thompson in the half mile and the former nosed him out by a stride in a 2:015 race.
Several other doubles were scored by Wisconsin performers. John Towle, former Wisconsin high school sprint champion, who was favored to win both dashes, won the 100 in 10 seconds flat, but did not compete in the 220. Instead he won the 220 yard low hurdles in 24.3 seconds.
Roger Foster won both the pole vault and the broad jump. In the former he cleared 13 feet to defeat Bill Beven, Jayhawk star, and Bill Williams, a teammate who won top honors in the Relays Saturday. He leaped 22 feet 10 inches to win the broadjump. J. R. Jones placed third with a jump of 21 feet $1\frac{1}{2}$ inches. Beierle A Double Winner
Bob Beierle, Wisconsin weight man, defeated George Paskvian, Big Ten indoor shot put champion, in the shot and discus for the only other double victory. He heaved the
21 Freshmen Report For Baseball Practice
Freshman baseball practice starts in earnest this week Ralph "Red" Dugan, frosh coach, announced today. A squad of 21 men turned out for the first work out Monday.

no other games owing to Big Six rulings.

Gertrude H. Cooper of Peabody, graduate of the University in 1910, has recently had a number of songs published. The songs, of the western or American folk type, include: "Where the Rainbow Meets the Prairie," "Riding Down the Trail of Dreams," "Lullaby of the West" and others.

shot 48 feet $ 4\frac{1}{2} $ inches and the discus 142 feet 1 3-4 inches. Finney placed third in the shot and Ed Linguist third in the discus.
After running a 49 second 440 to defeat Orlando Epp and Ken Hamilton, Jayhawk quarter milers, Buzz Zolin, diminutive Badger runner, anchored the Wisconsin relay team which won in 3:26.4. He ran the final leg in under 49 seconds to overcome a 15 yard handicap given him by Russ Novak, Jim McFadzean, and Bud Kelso, the other members of the team. The runners on the University team were Darrel Mathes, Fred Eberhardt, Epp and Hamilton.
Mathes Takes Second
Mathes, Jayhawk sprinter, finished second in both the 100 and 220 dashes. He placed behind Towle in the century and Russ Novak in the 21.8 second furlong.
Ralph Schaakc placed second in the javelin with a heave of 155 feet 10 inches. Hadley of Wisconsin won the event with 166 feet.
The only sweep scored by the Badgers was in the 120 yard high hurdles. Harrer, Bobber, and Kelso finished in that order to defeat Schaake, Jayhawk timber topper, in 15.4 seconds.
Hall's Wallop Pierce's 14-3; Vandaveer Hurls
Errors and walks were rife in yesterday's baseball workout as the Ed Hall's walloped the Dick Pierce's 14-3 in a three inning affair.
Marvin Vandaveer, pitching his first game of the season, started on the hill for the losers and although he got by the first frame safely, was touched for ten runs in the second. He exhibited a blazing fast ball, but wildness and miscues behind him proved his downfall.
The veteran Knute Kresie threw the first two innings for the winners and Bill Atwell, lanky southpaw, finished with three straight strikeouts. T.P. Hunter relieved Vandaveer and allowed four more runs in the third.
Ed Hall had a perfect day at the plate with two walks, a triple and a single. Ramie Beims poled a homer, Bob Holmer and Carl Sutton hit triples, and Vandavera long double.

Rodney Smith poled out two hits and one score for the losers.
