Track Team To Texas Relays
SPORTSCOPE
By Larry Winn
Just a few glances around at the N.C.A.A. tournament in Kansas City last Saturday night and then we will forget all about it. We still must give due credit to a fighting little Kansas cage team that went a lot further than most of us expected anyway. Then here we all are disappointed that we did not win the title of "national champions."
Keep your eyes open for the members of the Kansas team. They look like walking jewelry stores, with their gold belt buckles from the first tournament, and now with their silver basketsballs for key chains, and their 15-jewell Elgin wrist watches. They also won two beautiful trophies, one for being the western division champions of the N.C.A.A. and the other for being runner-up in the N.C. A.A. finals.
If you hear rumors that the N.C. A.A. All-American team was selected by one man, they are not far from wrong. Also, I might add that the man was a Kansas graduate. This corner thinks that the selection should be made by a group of attending coaches and that* the selection should have been made on players of the eight teams participating in the tournament.
Here and there at the N.C.A.A. . . . Sitting at the press table was James A. Bausch, former all-round star at Kansas, who said a few words over the air . . . "Chuck" Hyatt, now coach of the Phillips 66, National A. A.U. champions. . . Ray Ebling, brother of Don, and a former Kansas star, now playing with Phillips. . . Ted O'Leary, one of the greatest basketball players that Kansas ever had. . . "Frenchy" Belgard, another Kansas cage star and former Jayhawker captain. . . To say nothing of all the greatest coaches in the country gathered for the tournament and national coaches meeting.
How they saw the game: These four players saw the game from a different angle than the audience. Bob Allen probably saw about 50 Indiana players when Bob Armstrong, Hoosier forward, tried to fake the Kansas player out of position, but succeeded only in knocking him out of position, by throwing his head back and hitting Bobby in the forehead. Allen saw stars but not court stars. I wonder how John Kline felt when he was left guarding three men under the Kansas basket after one of the Indiana "fire wagon" fast breaks? Don Ebling had a terrifically hard time keeping his feet on the floor and spent a good deal of his time sliding across the 2 by 4 blocks. Guess how Ralph Miller saw the game in second half after he had seen action for the first half It was those four little fouls that put "Cappy" in the box seat for the last half of the fray.
FIRST PRIZE OF THE EVENING goes to Dr. E. E. Elbel, veteran sports announcer in this locality, when he introduced Governor Payne Ratner, as "the Honorable Governor of Indiana, Payne Ratner."

Two Strong Relay Teams Carry Jayhawker Hopes
By Larry Winn, Kansan Sports Ed
A team of 10 or 11 men will represent the University of Kansas in the Texas Relays, next Saturday at Austin. Coach Bill Hargiss said yesterday that he was not exactly sure whether he would take 10 or 11 cindermen to the southern meet. The team will leave Thursday morning at 8 o'clock. The trip will be made by automobile and the Jayhawkers will probably stop off in Norman, for a practice sometime Thursday afternoon.
A four-mile relay team of Joe Ryan, Dick Edwards, Don Thompson, and Ray Harris, will furnish the necessary competition for any other four-mile relay队. Although Harris has been out for the past four weeks with a bad foot, Coach Hargiss thinks that he will round into shape soon enough for the Texas meet. All of the men on this relay team have run the mile under 4:25 seconds so far this year and the Kansas mentor believes that this combination will click Saturday.
Although Hargiss is still undecided as to which man will run the second lap of the one-mile relay for Kansas, he did say that Bill Greene, Glenn Foy or Bill Reed, Darrell Mathes, and Kenny Hamilton would be the personnel of the faster quartet. Both Mathes and Hamilton have looked good in practice and Hargiss expects both to turn in good performances in this event.
J. R. Jones, Big Six Indoor champion and Missouri Valley title holder, will try to annex the title of Texas Relays champion in the broadjump. Jones jumped around 24 feet outdoors last year, but he has been leaping consistently around 23 feet indoors this season. He has been hindered by a back ailment but Hargiss seems to think that the injury is much better and that the Kansan will be back in jumping form.
In the pole-vault, Bill Bevan will compete with such figures as "Beefus" Bryan, of Texas, and Don Higgins, of Missouri, for the Texas title. Beven has been looking very good in practice lately and he might pull
Private Francis V. Conrad, fs, recently received his appointment as a flying cadet. The army order was issued at Moffett Field, California, where Conrad has been stationed.
Francis Conrad Receives Flying Cadet Appointment
Conrad attended Washburn College, Topeka, and the University of Kansas prior to his enlistment in the army last fall. While at the University he was a member of the R. O.T.C. rifle team.
Next event for the track team is the Texas Relays, next Saturday . . .
The Kansas Relies will be held April 19, 20. . . . Mike Getto's baseball team will open against Rockhurst, here on April 10. . . . And intramural baseball will start this week.
a surprise in this event. Bill tied for honors in the Missouri Valley indoor meet.
In case Kansas does not enter the sprint medley relay, then Hargiss plans to enter Darrel Mathes in the 100 yard dash and Glenn Foy in the 120 yard high hurdles. Mathes runs about a 9.7 seconds century when in top condition.
Subscribing to the theory that the best way to learn baseball is by playing it, Coach Mike Getto said this morning that he will probably send his Jayhawks through another five or six inning practice game this afternoon.
Baseball Team To Play Again
Time is getting short before the first battle of the season with Rockhurst college here on Wednesday, April 10, and the bulky Kansas mentor hopes to come to some decision on his starting lineup before another week of practice has elapsed.
Competition for several berths on the squad will be increased this week as the conclusion of basketball season allows Jack Sands, T. P. Hunter, and possibly one or two others to report for baseball.
Sands was the regular first baseman on last years' club, and Hunter also plays that position. With three other candidates, Darrel Haynes, Lloyd Goddard, and "Red" Thompson already working out at the initial sack, Getto is confronted by something resembling a traffic jam on the right field side of home plate.
Batters and fielders worked from midafternoon till dusk last night as Coach Getto stressed offensive and defensive maneuvers.
G. Dominoes Take Big Lead In Swimming
It looks like the Galloping Dominoes all the way in the intramural swimming meet, now under way. With the finals in the diving completed and all of the preliminaries out of the way, the Dominoes have qualified most of their team.
Wise, Sigma Nu, was by far the class of the fancy divers and won the event. Second, third, and fourth were won by the Galloping Dominoes.
The times were generally faster in most heats and the semi-finals tonight should see some close and speedy races. One interesting duel that will come up tonight, if the drawings permit, will be between Musser, Sig Alf, and Maier, Dominoes, who tied last night for the best time in the 50 yard free style.
In last night's events, the Dominoes qualified five men and their relay team. The Beta's were able to keep two men and their relay team in the events.
Summaries:
Diving (finals): First: Wise, Sigma Nu, second; Small, Galloping Dominoes, third; Dalton, Galloping Dominoes fourth; Green, Galloping Dominoes.
300 yard medley relay (two from each heat go to finals). First heat: Galloping Dominoes and Delta Upsilon; Second heat: Sigma Chi and Phi Delt. Best time: 3:12.7—Sigma Chi.
100 yard back stroke (winner of each heat to semi-finals). First heat: Dart, Galloping Dominoes; second heat: Byerley, Delta Tau Delta; third

Tennis, Golf Get Under Way
This week will be a busy one for "Dutch" Uhrlaub's racket-wielders and William H. Shannon's club swingers as they prepare for their first matches of the spring season with the University of Kansas City here on Wednesday, April 10.
Two returning lettermen, Howard Engleman, number-one man on last year's varsity, and Kermit Frankis will strengthen the tennis squad which is working out daily under the direction of Coach Uhrlaub.
Qualifying trials for positions on the varsity golf team will also be held this week.
Women's Intramurals
By CECIL KING
Evelyn Herritim, I.W.W., won the championship of the women's intramural deck tennis tournament by defeating Ellen Irwin, Kappa, 6-2, 2-6, 6-2.
In the ping pong tournament, Ellen Irwin eliminated Shirley Irwin Kappa, thereby advancing to the final round. She will meet the winner of the other semi-final match between Mary Beth Dodge and Jane Irwin, Kappas, to play for the championship.
