Perfect weather, a fast track, and a collection of great stars made Saturday a rough day on records at the Texas Relays. Nine meet records and one world mark were shattered.
The world record came in the sprint medley relay, when four University of Texas runners turned in a time of 3 minutes 24 seconds.
WHEN NORMAN SANNEMAN leaped 6 feet 6 inches, he broke a
school record that has stood since 1923. Tom Poor, a member of the Olympic team, held the old record at 6 feet $ 5 \frac{7}{8} $ inches. Sanneman barely missed going over the bar at 6 feet $ 7 \frac{7}{8} $ inches . . . he was over, but the bar
shivered and fell NORMAN SAVVEMAN off.
Two other long-legged boys, Don Boydston, Oklahoma A. and M., and Dub Walter of Baylor raised the Relays high jump mark to 6 feet $7 \frac{1}{2}$ inches. Boydston, who is sports editor of the A. and M. student paper, cleared 6 feet 9 inches, but officials ruled it was on his fourth try.
BILL BEVEN, Jayhawk co-captain and pole vaulter, can well claim the title of hard luck man of the relays. In his attempt at 12 feet 6 inches Beven broke his pole and turned a complete flip in mid-air. But Earl Meadows, holder of the world's indoor record, offered the use of his pole, and Bill came back on his next try to clear the bar and tie for first place.
The Kansas vaulter tied with three other man, and as only three medals were given, the four matched coins. Beven was the fourth man, and came home sans medal.
FOR RAY HARRIS, Kansas' successor to Cunningham, the third time wasn't a charm. The trip to Austin last weekend was his third to the Texas Relays. Last year Harris anchored a fast four-mile relay quartet. He was given a sizeable lead, and held it until the last

Texas Tracksters In Kansas Relays
The track and field stars who made last Saturday's Texas Relays the finest in history now are turning their attention to the nineteenth annual Kansas Relays here, April 18 and 19.
H. W. "Bill" Hargiss, University of Kansas track coach, returned from the meet at Austin with word that most of the stars there intended to compete in the big track and field carnival at Lawrence.
Win Six Firsts
Always a standout in the Kansas Relays, the University of Texas team appears to be even better than usual this year. The Longhorns won four relay races and two individual events in their own meet Saturday.
Texas' sprint medley relay team, which set a new world record in its event Saturday, will endeavor toOWER that mark here. Two winning sprint relay teams, and the victorious one mile relay quartet will'also compete in the Kansas meet.
Hughes Only Repeater
Only two time champion in the Kansas Relays will be Texas' big discuss thrower, Jack Hughes. The
Spring Showers Stymie Kansas Baseballers
Stymed by Jupiter Pluvius, University of Kansas baseball players disbanded today to go to their homes for Easter vacation. Practice will not be resumed until Monday.
Original plans were for the baseball squad to remain on the campus during most of the vacation to work out. However, the continued rain which wiped out two games with Kansas State, scheduled for yesterday and today, made th diamond a morass.
With little prospect of the field being in shape to use for several days, Coach F. C. "Phog" Allen decided to let the players go home for the vacation. This will give the Jayhawks only three workouts before they tackle the tough Oklahoma Sooners, defending Big Six champion, at Norman, April 17 and 18.
A call for freshman baseball players was issued today, the yearlings being instructed to report to Ralph Dugan, freshman coach, next Tuesday afternoon, at the west stadium dressing room. The freshmen will work out against the varsity during the remainder of the season.
burly Texan appears to be a cinch to break the meet record in his event here, after tossing the discuss 165 feet $9_{2}^{2}$ inches last week.
Carlton Terry and Fred Ramsdell, Texas sprint aces who ran a virtual dead heat in the 100 yard dash at the Texas Relays, with Terry getting the nod, will be prominent in a fast field of sprinters at Lawrence. Ramsdell was third in the 100 here last year.
Postpone Viking Net Meet Till Kansas Relays
The tennis match with Augustana College, scheduled for yesterday afternoon, has been post-poned until the morning of the Kansas Relays, April 19. Wet weather prevented the match from being played on the varsity courts and rather than play inside, the Vikings chose to meet the Jayhawks when they return to Kansas at Relay time.
