Nation's Best Time Posted By Kansas Quartet at Drake
The KU two-mile relay team of Kirk Hagan, Gordon Davis, Bill Thornton and Bill Dotson set a new Drake Relays record of 7:28.6 while establishing the nation's fastest time, to highlight the Jayhawkers' performance in the finale of the 1961 Midland Track Circuit Saturday.
The Kansas crew that finished second at the Texas and Kansas Relays to SMU and Drake which posted the nation's fastest times, would not take no for an answer this time.
THERE WAS LITTLE doubt after the first 830 yards KU was going to win. Hagan ran the opening half in 1.517 to give Davis an 18 yard lead. Davis clocked 1.541 for his two ovals to keep KU 15 yards in front. Thornton took over and跛ed a 1.519 to

boost the Jayhawk margin to 20 yards. Anchor man Dotson ran his half in 1:50.9 to break the tape 40 yards ahead of Drake.
"He was the fastest American in the race but..." is a phrase that is being used with regularity in regard to KU's distance ace Billy Mills. Mills has been plagued during his Jayhawk track career with the problem of having to compete with foreign runners in the long distance races was confronted with this situation again Friday.
In the two mile run, Mills recorded his personal low and was the fastest American in the race to finish fourth with 9:03.1. Houston's Pat Clohessy, Australia, won the event by 12 yards in 8:56.6. Behind him were Southern Methodist's Jan Alberg, Sweden, and Houston's John Macv. Poland.
Jack Stevens established a school record in the pole vault with 14-8 to tie for second with Oklahoma's J. D. Martin, Southern Methodist's Dexter Elkins, and Purdue's Mike Johnson.
Oklahoma State's George Davies won at 15-6. Davies missed a world
record of 15-10 when he barely hit the bar with his arm while shoving off his pole.
Pete Talbott threw the javelin 204-4 $ _{1/2} $ , his collegiate high to place fifth.

No limit — but you MUST P
So far this season the Jayhawks have shown a remarkable knack for winning the easy ones, but, unlike last season when they rolled to a 12-1 mark, they have lost their touch in winning the close matches. In all seven victories to date, KU has won five times by 7-0, once 6-1, and another time by an 8-1 score.

Coach Denzel Gibbens calls Jerry Williams his "key man." Williams is playing at the decisive No.3 singles post which acts as a fulcrum in team dual matches. The Olathe senior letterman has improved steadily, and has played a big part in the Jayhawks' present success.
