Eighteenth Annual Games Have Record Breaking Teams Enrolled in Events
Nearly two thousand eight hundred athletes from schools widely distributed over the entire United States will compete in the eighteenth annual Drake relay carnival at Des Moines today and tomorrow. Two hundred early ninety units, teams of high schoolers are entered in the meet.
Ten track men representing the University of Kansas last lawrence last night to participate in the Drake games. They were accompanied by Coach H, J. Huff and Dr. F, C. Allen Added interest in the Drake relay is given by the meetings of basketball ball coaches of the middle west it was held in 1967 rulings for the game, which many of the coaches regretted no too drastic Doctor Allen went to Des Moines primarily to attend this meeting.
The Jayhawk devices of track and field will exhibit their provenness at Drake afe Grudy, Woods, Ms. Incapery, Cowen and Bangstine (Nancy), Ralphene Rehlinger, Francier for the two-male run; Therom hill for the short-and discuss; Peters for the broad jump; Captain Doornice for the hurdle and Farmer Jenkins for jump and jongle. It is also entered in the rayeyed dash special event.
Notre Dame's quarter-mile relay team which equaled the world's mark of 41.6 seconds for that event at the Kansas Relays, has been working hard under the tuckle of Coach Knute Rocke, and is expected to be a strong contender for a new world record in this event. The quarter-mile race from Kansas to Texas, Nebraska, Drake, and Creighton, however, promise to furnish plenty of competition for the Catholic-
Kansas is the favorite for honors in the half-mile relay. Leading sport writers are of the opinion that a new world's mark is not unlikely to be set by the Kansas half-mile team which chipped one-benth second from the dislipacker on the bat but was dislipbed because the baton was lost.
One unusual event in mid-western track meets will be featured at the meet. This is the hammers throw and together with the two male run is placed on the program of the great meet, a classic for the first time this year.
Oval Solem, director of the Drake relay, announced that today's program of events would include all the relays, and the university's relays, and preliminary in a number of special events for the university class. The university medley relay, which promised to be the feature of the days, also was run Friday.
team trophies will be given to the winners of the various race teams and individual members of the teams will receive gold, silver and bronze medals. A gold watch is the award for excellence in football and bronze medals go to the athletes placing second, third and fourth respectively.

a checkup of the official summary
shows.
Among the first place winners nineteen schools, coming from nine states, are represented. The results show a widespread distribution of the prizes among the various states and schools represented.
Represented
However, there are more double winners of firsts this year than at anytime in the history of the Kannan games. Teams to win two relay races included the University of Iowa and Iowa State College in the university class. Oklahoma Baptists in the college class. University School in the junior college class, and Galesburg, IL, high in the high school class.
In the special events for individual athletes the University of Illinois was the only school to win two firsts, that was in 1948 and 1950. It shot out, and White in the pole vault
The University of Iowa carried home the largest number of the white gold watches given to winners of first, having a total of nine through victories in the half-mile and one mile relays and a first in the broad jump. The team won four times and 7.12 inches. This makes 27 watches won this season for the Iowa team.
Checks for their pro-rata share of the net gate receipts were sent out to university class teams Tuesday night, April 25, which is believed to be a record for quick finishing up of a new sport. The Kansas rangers are non-profit making and it was announced this week by Dr. F. C. Allen director of athletics at Kansas, that he hoped to extend the division of profits next year to include a prerata to placing teams in the college, high school and third school education in addition to that given to university class teams.

Aggie Games Important
Kansas Working Hard to Win Baseball Contests
The outcome of the baseball games today and tomorrow with the Kansas Aginges on the K. U. diamond, will determine whether the chances of the Kansas nine in the valley pennant race. At the present time the Aginges are in first place with a perfect percentage, while the Kansas nine is second with three games won and three lost.
If the Jahawks come through with victories in both games they will be in third place, while the Agregs will fall to fourth. Washington still has a perfect record but has played only one game.
Swenson will pitch today's game and Anderson will probably be Coach uunn's choice on the mound tomorrow. Anderson went well in the game against the Oklahoma Aggies and with the same support should pitch a good game against the Wildcats. The Aggies will probably start Hays in the box against the Kansas州队.
The game today starts at 4 p. m., while Saturday's contest will begin at 2 p. m., Pat Boyle of Kansas City will umpire the games.

AND now for a Jantzen suit and a "coat" of tan!
It's a wonderful thing to get all tanned in the great outdoors. And the best of all outdoor sports is swimming. That's why a Jantzen means so much.
Sharply differing from the "suits" that bind and drag like excess baggage, your Jantzen barely lets you know it's on you. Covers you snugly, lightly, naturally, and with modesty and warmth; for Jantzen-stitch fabric is closely knitted, long-fibred wool.
It's extremely too. Flaes without wrinkling.
Color-fast, as Juntzens are literally *dyed-in-the-wool*. We have them in all sizes and popular styles and colors.
Suits for Men or Women.
