Although the races were run in the rain and on a wet day it gives the Jayhawkers a chance to see the huckleberries huskers will have to offer here Fremont give Kansas the advantage in all events except the deshes and Hamilton claims a good chance for his mer in these events. Ames proved the better of the Cornhuskers in the distances. This is also the Jayahawkers' strong place and the meat will be one-sided as far as the race. The Ames won the two mile, one mile and half mile in rather slow time but was not a Nebraska man near enough to push the winners. Hawthorne of the Ames won the four-mile by running it in 4:38:2 in spite of the rain and heavy track. Without Captain Frizzell to win some points in the jumps and hurdles, the Aggies defeated Baker Sat-day afternoon by a small score. The Aggies as usual showed up strong in the distances and most everything else. There was no unusual time made in any events but the Aggies did not show and it will be a safe bet that Kansas will not win from them on the outdoor track by a score as large as the indoor score, 66 to 19. Scott of Nebraska is going like a cyclone in the dashes this year and is counted on for ten sure points by the Nebraskans this week. Davidson, Hilton and O'Leary will have to go some to beat him out. Missouri is scheduled to meet the Chinese in a couple of games in Columbia this week. This will be a good chance for the coaches to get a line on the Jayhawkers' chances to stop the Tigers on-rush for Kansas took the Chinks to a one-point defeat in the second game here. But the coaches have already had a chance to compare the two teams for the Ames squad has been defeated by both Missouri and Kansas this spring ahead of Iowa's pictures from the Ames squad but McCarty will have his men going at a top speed when they arrive in Columbus next week. The Tigers are getting quite elated over their chances for a championship team this year. Ten straight games, seven wins and five losses have been taken by the Missourians. The weather will have to release its hold on the K. U. tennis courts mighty quick if the dual match with Nebraska is to be held Friday. It has already prevented the team from practicing much and Captain Teacher has been unable to pick a partner for that reason. Nebraska won their first dual tennis match a week ago when they defeated the Nebraska Wesleyan in the three matches played. Harry Ellis James Gardiner and Orville Chatt were the Cornhusher contestants and the same squad will play Kansas Friday. -W. C. S.
