Dope Gives Edge to Kansas Squad in Missouri Dual
Bengals Defeated in Indoor Meet Once This Year; Most of Events a Toss-Up
Despite pessimistic reports issuing from the camp of the Tigers, the daund track meet scheduled with them Saturday afternoon appears to be more or less of aarry affair with the Missouri squad, slightly edge near the Missouri squad.
Dr. H, J. Huff, head Kansas mento*, expects a close battle, although the showing of hb: men against the Kansas Aggies lot Saturday, coupled with the poor showing of Missouri against Ames on the road would indicate that the Jayhawkers favored to walk away with the duel.
LAWRENCE, KANSAS, THURSDAY, MAY 9, 1929
The indoor meet on the Convention hall board oval last February was a great experience, in a total of 51 points to their opponents 34. The only events the Tigers were able to place two men in the guard dash and the quarter-mile run.
In the quarter, Hurley of Missouri should have his own way as he has covered the distance in 48.8, while Jones, the Kansas flash, has turned in 49.2 as his best time of the day. A new mark set at Manhattan Saturday.
Captain "Doco" Frazier is a top-heavy favorite to take the mile and two mile runs. Jay Wiley, star Jay-hawker dash man who was out of the Aggie dunk with his best teeth toum, made things interesting for the Tiger sprinters.
Missouri has three top notch half milers in Epstein, Swartz, and Allegri, and with Hinshao, Youngman, the second should be a pretty duel. Hinshao led the field to the tape Saturday by stepping the distance in 1:58.5, while Epstein has negotiated this while journey in slightly longer time.
The dayhawks appear to carry quite an edge in the field events with the exception of the pole vault and possible the broad jump.
Missouri won the dual last year by a score of 71 to 59 and have taken 21 of the meets to 6 victories for Karaus.
The mile relay should be interesting as the Tigers have five men, each capable of running a marathon, while the Jayhawker entries, Lagerquist, Mise, Ash, Shannon, Jones, and Young are a crew of 16. The relay team to the limit. Missouri beat the Kansans out in the Kansas Relays after a close race and also won a bronze.
The affair, the 27th annual of its kind is scheduled to start at 2 p.m., and is expected to be over in time for the baseball game to start at 4
