Second
LAWRENCE, KANSAS, FRIDAY MAY 24, 1929
The winning of the intramural championship, Kappa Alpha Gamma, has a comfortable mound in the season's standing over its near-competitor, Phi Kappa Alpha. A view of a scissor 1396 to 1346, with final returns on handball, tennis and horseshoes get
Up to the final drawings, the Pi K. A.'s are leading in handball, 200 to 172; tennis, 86 to 377, and horseshoes, 84 to 57. The final drawings show that there is little if any chance for the Pi K. A.'s to lose their grip on the intramural championship cup. The second place cup is now being held by Kappa of Chicago. With the victory of the cup, an organization must win the championship for three years, Pi Kappa Psi and Pi Delta Theta won the cup one year in the past.
Besides cups and trophies that are awarded to winning organizations, bronze charms with a jayhawk and a baltimore card will be given to each individual winner first place in any event in which the team placed winners, the five men on the championship basketball team, and the ten men on the championship base.
Final Game Exciting
The game deciding the baseball championship was exciting throughout and it was not until the sixth inning that the ball touched on ice, when they scored three runs on a two-hit base by Meyers and a reach by L. Gradinger and McDonald.
A homermie by McGuire in the second innning netted the Phi Delta their first run and tied the score, but the Pi K. A.'s answer in the third round was a run on two-base hit by B. Gradinger and a single by Meyers.
It seemed as though the Phil Delta had forged ahead in their half of the game, but the team followed by Grower who cleared the bases with a home run on errors, but Upjure Bann discovered that Haug only one of the runs counted.

Invading Women
Upon Cinder Path
Sound New Note
For a while the smelling salts held more interest on the field than the authorized events.
The big blood man regulating the height of the high jump made jumping worth it to get a good look at him.
The large and crowed crowd at the women's tournament meet yesterday consisted of baseball men, track men, babyshaper photographers, officials, reporters, and umpires.
One of the casualties of importance occurred when Steen hurt her ankle. The injury kept her from entering the high jump.
Peterson's efforts at the high jump — her exclamations as she laundered a comic relief to an other-wise serious event.
Records were broken in the 50-yard dash, baseball throw, running broad jump, shot put, 220-yard relay, and 65-low yard hurdles. Although the records were not broken in the discus throw, hop, step and jump, and high jump, they were close.

Taking the picture of the tracker man had been scheduled for early in the afternoon, but due to attractions and distractions the coaches found it difficult to meet long enough for a picture to be taken.
As Whisman threw the baseball yesterday to the far end of the stadium breaking the University record and coming near to the collegiate relegation, he knocked out the crowd broke out with, "Boy how she could handle a rolling pin!"
Just before the relays a small boy who had been reprimanded for standing on the track, got his pea-shoot ready and aimed at the runners, but they missed. The youngster forgot his original intention and let them pass him unharmed.
Harper seemed rattled some of the time, but otherwise was up to her usual form.
Heard from the contestants, "We really do remarkably well, considering the amount of practice we've had."
"This is a big crowd than was at the M. u. meet," laughs the photographer as he pushes aside a half camera standing in front of the camera.
Filkin's fall in the relays kept the seniors from placing in that event.
Mize is good at shaking the pole visibly without knocking it over in the high jump.
The freshmen and junior showed a pardonably pride by the end of the day.
