Hawks Face Tough Field Today in the Drake Relays
454
A top-flight field at the Drake Relays today may give the Jayhawkers more trouble than the Kansans experienced at either the Kansas or Texas Relays.
KU won two relay crowns and finished second in two here, but chances are good that the Jayhawker baton teams will not get a single gold medal at Drake.
The Javahawkers have their best chance in the sprint medley. They won at both Texas and Kansas in the first two legs of the midlands track triple-crown of Texas, Kansas and Drake Relays. But Kansas will face, Illinois and Dave Kerr.
Fencers to Hold Team Tournament
KU's fencing team initiates an unusual meet tomorrow when it begins an intra-squad round-robin tournament from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. in Robinson Gymnassium.
A fencing team has three weapons, the epee, foil and sabre. During the season each member of the team specializes in one weapon.
The match is designed to give members of the team experience in the other weapons in competition. Electrical foils and epees will be used for accuracy in determining points.
The judges will be John Dillard, foil; Jerry Old, epee, and Meredith Wilson, sabre. Other participating team members will be Stan Patterson, Paul Shaffer, Steve Corsen, Herb Kasold and Dan Grover.
The public is invited free to watch the combat.
KU has two solid favorites in the individual events. Bill Alley is picked to repeat in the javelin and Charlie Tidwell is favored in the 100-yard dash.
Last year the Jayhawkers led by 20 yards going into the 880-yard run. Kerr turned in a 1:46.6 to edge Kansas and help Illinois set an inter-collegiate record of 3:17.8.
Kansas will have a chance in the mile relay, but Abilene Christian, who won at Texas and Kansas, will be favored. Abilene won in 3:09.5 at Texas with Kansas a close second. The meet record is 3:11.5.
KU also won the two-mile relay here but North Texas and Illinois will give Kansas tough opposition.
In the sprint medley relay, Kansas' first three men carrying the baton—Clif Cushman, Paul Williams and Charlie Tidwell—will have to give anchorman Bob Tague a good lead if he is to stave off Kerr's onslaught.
The Drake Relays is the last leg of track's famed triple-crown which
starts in Texas, moves north to Kansas and winds up at Drake.
