Twenty-Five Men Go To Compete In Meet Held In K. C. March 2
Time in Distance Events Was Slow—Best Record in Quarter Mile
Frosh Show Up in Try-out
Russell, Davison, R. Rodkey Coffey, Shreve and Murphy Are Relay Men
Nearly twenty-five men will be taken to the K. C. A. C. meet in Kansas City Saturday night by Coach W. O. Hamilton. Try-outs for the meet were held yesterday afternoon in Robinson Gymnasium and an unexpected result of these was the large number of freshmen who ran and who will be taken to the Kansas City meet. The time was slow in the distance events.
Probably the best time was made in the quarter mile. Rhinehart, a freshman placed first. No Narsity men were entered. Opelensky, Little, and Rusk also placed in the order named. The best time made was 60:4-5 seconds. One or two of the Narsity quarter mile men may be used in this event, although most of them will be saved, instead of what of them we have at the Nebraska team. Russell, Davidson, R. Rodkey, Coffey, and Shreve are the men most likely to compete in the relay along with the veteran Murphy.
In the half-mile Fischer and Bradley, freshmen athletes, placed with McCall leading and Davidson close behind. The time was slow being 2:16 2-5. The track record held by Fred Rodkey is 2:02. Murphy and Coffey, other regulars, also will make the trip and may run the half-mile. Bradley and McCall may be only entered in the 1,000 yard handicap.
Hanna made the best time in the mile, 5:14. Hunt and Flemberg, both fresh runners will be taken on the meet to run in this event.
The exact list of those who will enter the dashes has not been announced but it is certain that Bradley, Lobaugh, Schwartz, and one or two freshmen will compete. In the hurdles there is Hobart and Armel, Liggett, Davison, and a freshman probably will be taken to try for a place in the shot put. With Rice at the Illinois meet the same night, the high jump will be in the hands of inexperienced men. Howard and several first year men will be entered in this event.

In the pole vault Howard probably will make every man in the meet work hard to win first place from him. He tried for first in the Kansas Argie meet last week for first place at a height of 10 feet 9 inches. Buffington, Dewall, and Brown may enter some of the longer distance races.

Both men were entered in the State High School meet here last spring and each carried away high honors. Evans tied the state record in the 50 yard dash while Neely stepped the 440 yard dash in the fast time of 51 4-5 seconds.
Ten teams have been entered in the Illinois relay carnival, which will also be held Saturday night. The entries are Illinois, Chicago, Wisconsin, Michigan, Indiana, Iowa, Wabash, Grinnell, Ohio State and Notre Dame. The Great Lakes Naval Training Station and Camp Grant will enter relay teams.
