Jayhawk Team Performs Well At Texas Relays
Places Are Won in Five Events; Competition Is Stiff Says Hargiss
The Kansas Jayhawker track team made an unexpected show at the Texas Relays last Saturday by winning places in five events. "The boys looked good, the races were close, the temperature was 85 degrees, fine teams were entered—consider everything it was a great meet with like-minded teammates," said Coach H. W. "Bill Harper regarding the Texas carnivall."
The Jayhawkers, competing with Olympic, national, and sectional truck and field stars placed third in the half-mile relay, fourth in the mile relay, and second in the high jump and pole vault.
Dale Shannon, lanky Kansan,
cleared 6 feet 3 inches to take second
in high jump which was won by
Vickery, Longhorn ace. Don Bird
cleared 13 feet in the pole vault for
Brittany, Forsyth ace, sprinters.
Forrest Hardcock, Harry
Wiles, Lloyd Foy, and Jack Rich-
mond made up the half mile and
440-yard team that won third and
fourth respectively in these events.
The mile relay foursome composed
of 78 laps, 92 yards, and Gordon Gausse took fourth.
Chester Friedland, sophomore shot putter, although not finishing in the money in the event dominates by Nebraska's big Sam Francis made an excellent showing by tossing the shot 47 feet 2 inches.
Coach Hargiss and the men are now pointing to the Kansas Relays April 17, with eagerness. The Jay-hope to hope in to be in top form for the event.

Teams in High School Meet Evenly Matched
Sumner Squad Will Try To Retain Title In Class A
The most widespread scoring in a number of years is expected in the thirty-third annual University of Kansas intercollegiate field and track meet. April 16 To date, no teams have scored more than that has been true in previous years.
Summer High of Kansas City, Kan.
will make a bid to become the first school successfully to defend a class A championship in the past eight years. From 1925 through 1929 the Wichita schools, competing as one school, monopolized class A honors, but since 1929 no school has been able to win the title two years in a row.
Hutchinson Appears Strong
Hutchinson Appears Strong
To accomplish its objective, Summer again will have to overcome stagnation in Florida, Wichita North and Hutchison, second third place winners last year. Hutchinson is the stronger of the two this season and may achieve its first Relays championship.
Although Hutchinson has a good sprinter and a good hurdler, it will largely be a matter of the Sahhawk's field men against the rummers of Summer and Wichita North. At the Sterling Relys last week, when Hutchinson snapped Wichita North's long string of championships, the Sahhawks won five of the six field events and took second in the other. Their marks were not particularly outstanding, however.
Underwood May Star Ago.
Brodie North will depend main,
on Underwood; state champion in the
Wichita last year, who also runs
the 400-meter times. Morgan in the
100- and 220-dash dusks, and
Wichita, half-miler.
Other strong class A teams include Wyandotte and Argentine of Kansas City, Kan., Atchison, Wichita East, Salina, Independence, Junction City, and Ottawa.
Underwood May Star Again
Alma, 1936 class B champion, has lost many of his best athletes and is accorded little chance of retaining its championship. This is expected to go to Kiowa, Chase County, Waterville or Pretty Prairie.
Klowa had an outstanding team in 1936, from which only one member was lost by graduation. The Chieffairs were winners in class B at the Sterling Relays last week, closely allowed by Preyria Prairie.
The stiffest competition of the meet should be in the dashes. In class A, the sprinters include Lallis of Junction City, winner of the century and runner-up in the 220-yard dash here last year; Akers of Atchison, third in the 220 and fourth in the 100 at the state meet last year; Wells of Hutchinson, third in the 100 at the state meet last year; Morgan of Wichita North, Sterling Relays champion in both sprints; and Ladd of Sabina, Latha, Akers, Francis and Ladd all ran the century in 10 seconds flat during 1936.
Squad Shows Up Well In Practice Session
"Another week of practice like last week's, and we will be getting somewhere," observed Coach Ad Lindsay yesterday as his football squad worked out the stiffness resulting from last Saturday's game. "That game Saturday was a dandy. I think we'll have one like it Wednesday afternoon," Lindsay went on to say. "These games show whether the players use the information we give them in practice."
Other than the game Wednesday, Lindsey's plans for this week include the trying of three freshman backfield men at the end positions.
Lindsey said he liked the way the men showed up in the practice game, and that while the blocking was good, they had been, the tackling looked good.
Bound Edge-at Its Best by STETSON
Doff this newest Stetson with pride. It has everything that a well-styled snapbrim should have . . . lower crown, narrower band, wider brim with wide binding. And note how that brim curls up behind. You'll be seeing this hat on the smartest heads this Spring.

The men are Bill Arnold, Paul White, and Wayne Nees. Lindsey hastened to say that while these players would make excellent backs, the end positions are the weakest spots on the team and some capable men will have to be found to fill them.
In This Corner By Hugh Wire
After the showing made at the Texas Relays, the Jayhawker truckmen seem to have a chance to hold off part of the threats of the invading cinder burners who are about to descend upon us for the Kansas Relay. If the cold weather allows them to have to move to Florida or points South so that the boys can run without ice-cicles forming from the perspiration. The cinder track, however, is being put in shape as rapidly as it will dry. With several signs of it should be firm and smooth.
Dr. James Naimish recently received a letter from R, R. Boardman, who is director of athletes at the Salem, Ore. Y.M.C.A., telling of the success of a small town team in winning the high school championship of Oregon. The coach of the team had learned his basketball from Boardman, and in a school in a community so small that it did not even have the luxury of a post-office. The coach ascribed the success of his team to the facts that he learned their lessons practiced a bit of basketball, and went to bed early. He said that he did not use a "system." This seems to be a unique way to learn to play basketball, but maybe the boys got their exercise milking the cows every morning.
