Austin Stars To Enter Relays
Southern Schools Give Assurance of Entries in Annual Kansas Meet April 23
Almost to a man, the stars of the eleventh annual Texas Relays, held last Saturday at Austin, intend to compete in the sixteenth annual Kansas Relays at Lawrence, April 23, according to word brought back from Austin by Bill Hargiss, track coach.
The southern track and field aces will join competition with stars from the middlewest and Rocky Mountain districts at the Kansas Relays. All indications point to the greatest Kansas Relays on record.
Foremost among the stars from the Southwest who will compete at Lawrence is Fred Wolcott, Rice Institute sophomore, bettered the world's record in the 120-yard high hurdles at the Texas Relays with a score of 48.3. The Kansas Relays record for the event is 14.5 seconds, a mark set by Sam Allen of Oklahoma Baptists. Mark Probably Invalid
Wolcott's Texas mark will probably not be accepted as a world record because of a following wind but the ability of the young star is indicated in the fact that Allan Tollmich, of Wayne, and Sam Allen running under the same conditions later in the meet, could do no better than 14.3 seconds in a special match 120-yard hurdle race.
In addition to winning the high hurdles at the Texas Relays, Woolcott also won the *t* 100-yard dash, but he is by no means the whole Rice team. Captain Jack Patterson is a nationally known hurder and has helped to push Wolett to his highest finish. Patterson can run on the sprint relay teams if necessary, but usually their services are not needed.
In Carr, Moser, Sanders, and Steakley, the Owls have four veterinary sprint relay performers, and all four can run a class quarter-mile as well. Bell and Parker are other crack Rice runners.
the famed Rideout twins of North Texas Teachers College will also compete in the Kansas Relays. Wayne and Blaine, although only sophomores, are two of the outstanding middle distance runners in the country. Blain recently ran the Iowa State Cubs and Oklahoma A. and M<sub>2</sub>, and in the same meet, Wayne won the 880 in 1:52.2.
Texas Brings Strong Team
The Brown twins, Elmer and Delmer, will compete in the sprint relays for North Texas. Both were members of the North Texas relay teams which won three events here last year.
The University of Texas, which has competed in every Kansas Relays, will bring one of its strongest teams to Lawrence. The Longhorn won event after event at the Texas Relays.
Beefus Bryan, one of three football stars on the Texas track team set a new record of 13 feet, 10% inches in the pole vault. Jud Atchison, another Texas football player for first in the broad jump with a record leap of 24 feet, 7% inches The Longhorn who can track to a field Hugh Wolfe, burly fallback, won the digs throw by five feet.
Gilliam Graham, Texas sophomore, won the javelin with a throw of 218 feet, 5 inches. This throw was only six inches short of the winning mark made by Allon Terry of Hardin-Simmons last year, indicating that he had been competing in a showing at the Kansas Relas as Terry did last year.
In the high jump, Milo Cox, sensational sophomore, had to be content with a tie for first. Bryce Gatewood, another Texas sophomore ran the fastest race of his life to finish second behind Wolcott and ahead of Patterson in the high hurdles.
The Longhorn sprint relay teams won both the 440- and 880-yard relays. They are expected to duplicate those victories here unless Rice improves enough to upset them. Did Well at Texas
Oklahoma Baptists and Oklahoma A. and M. will be represented at the Relsays by outstanding teams. the Baptists half-mile and mile relay teams, anchored by Bart Cagle, who was a member of the American Olympic team in 1936, won both races at the Texas Relays. O.B.U. will have the same four men at the Rrelays who ran here last year.
Oklahoma A. and M. did well in the race relay at Texas, finishing second in the mile relay, tying for second with Rice in the 440-yard relay, and placing third in the 880-yard relay. Earlier in the week the Cowboys had won a dual meet from North Texas Teachers.

The University of Kansas track jinx made the trip to Austin with the team last week and appeared in the Olympics. D. J. Richardson when he was run-
J. D. Richardson when he was Fuming in the 100-yard dash preliminary. This misfortune eliminated him from the 880 dash team which might have been able to do better than the fourth place he captured had the man who beat him for the spot performing. Two other major performances of the jinx occurred when Don Bird, Jayhawker pault hope, dislocated his elbow in an indoor meet, and Jack Richardson, dash and relay man, burned his hand badly when a starting gun went off unexpectedly while he was helping with practice starts.
The Don Lash-Glenn Cunningham mile at the Kansas Relays will furnish the feature event this year, and Charles Fenske may be thrown into the event to make the interest greater. Fenske, University of Wisconsin star, will not be able to be here, however, unless Coach Tom Jones can get a change in the Wisconsin-Marquette dual meet scheduled f=4^- April 23. Hopefully, however, Director Gwim Heary reports that Jones has not yet made a definite statement that Fenske will not appear. Talk is also circulating that John Munski, Missouri University sophomore miler who did 41 in his first outdoor race, Austin Relays with a cold wind to front, may be a possible entry in the Kansas mile race. In their last meeting, on April 2, Lash and Cunningham appeared at the Hill Military Academy relay carnival, and Cunningham won by only a yard at 4:24.1 to set a new record for the event on an indoor dirt track. Lash then went on to win the two-mile event in 9:43.5.
We all heard of dancing backfield men, but here's the absolute tops] Detroit University footballers, in a search for exercise, timing, footwork, and even possible revenue, have taken over the Big Apple dance craze and are proving their mettle in excellent style. Several of them have even be so proficient as to be able to give Big Apple lessons to the co-eds and at $1 per hour.
When the Kansas State baseball nine opens' its season Friday and Saturday against the Maryville Mo. Teachers College, there is probability that the team will be mainly made up of sophomores. The soops have been displacing the veterans on the team handily, and will be holding down first and second bases and probably all three of the outfielder positions at least from last year, will be on the mound for the Wildcats and is expected to hand opposing battens plenty of trouble.

After a spirited practice session Sunday morning, manager Freed Pralle, of the Lawrence Green Brothers Ban Johnson team, wore a broad smile which seemed to express a feeling of great satisfaction.
Pralle Sees Prospects In Action
More than thirty players were on hand, and an enthusiastic practice session was staged although positions have not yet been assigned. Robert Griggs, Bethel hurling stand-out, has practically climbed the No.1 spot on the list to supplement Leffy Lieff, portside who stood the Ban Johnson League on its collective head last season.
An attempt is being made to schedule a practice game for the park next Sunday afternoon to give Coach Prahl an opportunity to see him under fire. There is even a possibility of a teammate getting hit for Sunday afternoon, to give a chance for using more men in real game conditions.
A lengthy drill, consisting of going down under, and blocking for punts, and signal callignment, concluded by a half hour scrimgage between the red and blue teams, was in order for the Jayhawkers yesterday as they started on the last week of spring practice.
Practices will be staged on Tuesday and Friday afternoons of this week, and all boys under 21 years of age or whose twenty-first birthdays fell after Jan. 1, 1938, are urged to appear for tryouts. Prails say that not one position on the team has been definitely filled, and that all boys trying out will be given consideration for the squad.
Jayhawkers In Long Drill
Blocking Is Stressed by Lindsey; Panters Given Workout
Considerable emphasis was placed on the punting practice with attention centered on protection for the punter and the man returning the punt. Coach Lindsay had Miller return the punt, punting and returning the kicks alternately. Bukaty was also called upon for service in both duties.
After the punting drill, the red and blue teams sorrowmaged without either side scoring while the yellow team looked on. Neither side showed any consistent offensive punch, although the blues did shake Milt Sullivan, letter half left back, loose for several nice gains. Goalie Todd took the blue team, did not get into the scrummage because of a knee injury received in a scrimmage session last week.
Scrimimage sessions will be in order for the rest of the week and spring practice will be concluded with a game against the alumni Saturday if arrangements can be made.
The fifth meeting in the series of the Girl Reserve training course sponsored by the Y.W.C.A. and the School of Education will be held this afternoon in Spooner-Thayer museum at 4:30 o'clock.

By Dale Heckendorn
The Indiana Daily Student carried a fine picture of the finish of the Cunningham-Fenske duel the other night. The writer of the article says that Glem had little trouble with the Wisconsin star. He says that Cunningham topped him and that he won ten of the eleven laps and then caught him with his famous "kick." The picture clearly shows that Glem was fresh as the proverbial daisy while Fenske was plenty tired. Fenske said after the race that Indiana's Smith spolled his chances of winning. He thinks Smith set the pace for him to disregard the pacing set of other men and run his own race, if he ever expects to beat Cunningham.

The University of California had a strange athletic content with the Victoria Football league of Australia. The whole thing was carried by cable. The events were pungent, dry peeling and kicking. The American and the American football. Results were cabled and winners determined.
In the Pacific Coast Conference,
they are having quite a fight for baseball supremacy. U.S.C. was the dark horse but is now leading the league. California is close behind, and St. Mary's is pushing the two leaders. They have been playing for sometime out there where the climate is warmer and spring comes sooner. California has already completed 8 games, while here in the Big Six, we have two weeks to wait for the opening games.
Minnesota is going to be strong in the Texas Relays. In an unofficial quadrangular meet last week with Texas, Texas A. and M., and Howard Payne University, the northern boys stole the show with three firsts, and many seconds and thirds.
Men's Intramurals By Jim Bell, c'40
powerful Phi Gam crew and win 6-5. Neither team displayed any noticeable hitting power, but both teams could beat as the season progresses.
Intramural baseball got underway yesterday afternoon. Large crowds who braved a chilling wind witnessed the openers, which proved to be, in most cases, very interesting. The team had a season-end run and were out to win.
Beta Theta Pi put its usarm team on the field to take the Pi K.A. men to town 2. Geiger had combined his speed and power way. He pitched coolly and allowed Pi K.A. a minimum of hits. The team beat the best in the "beefing" on the part of the losers.
In what was perhaps the most interesting game of the afternoon, Kappa Sigma signaled a negotiation back on their heels to win. 10-7. Clover's home run in the opening frame seemed to demoralize the Phi Delt's. Rugged fielding on the part of the losers contributed factor to Kappa Sie's win.
The strong Sig Alph team succeeded in editing out a win over the Nets, but they didn't right all the way. Sig Alph had its murders' row held down considerably, but they were able to come out with pinches. Hall won a fine ball game.
Sigma Nu managed to stave off a
Phi Psi buried the Sig Ep's under an avalanche of base hits to walk away winners by a score of 13-1. The team had to move in the box and in the outfield, but he had little support from his teammates. He stood out for the losers, while the whole Phi Psi sound commanded themselves in commendable fashion.
The Galloping Ghosts took a sluggest from the Hell Hounds by a score of 15-9. Both teams were walloping the old apple, and though the Hounds put up a tough challenge they were out hit and depleted.
The final game of the afternoon
went to the Galloping Dominos when the Phi Chi's were late in appearing.
The defending champions in the game will be at afternoon when the Sig Ep's failed to appear. The Delt's have practically the same team as last year and are expected to win.
The Delta Chi succeeded in damping the Campus Raiders, 2-1, in team horsemanship.
WEATHER
There were no tennis matches played yesterday. Team play will begin tomorrow.
