INVITATION MEET THIS AFTERNOON BEST HIGH SCHOOL ATH LETES ARE COMPETING. University Has Also Supervised Successful Contests in Basketball And Debate. The elimination of the activity of the high schools of the state will have been reached this spring when the annual Invitation track meet is held on McCook field this afternoon. Some of the best track athletes in the Missouri Valley representing both Kansas and Missouri will take part in the meet this afternoon. The men from Central won the Missouri Valley high school championship at Lincoln in the Missouri Valley high school meet there last Saturday and they won by the largest score that the meet has ever been made in the history of the athletic relation between the schools of the states of Kansas, Missouri, Iowa, and Nebraska. Twice before, the schools of the state have sent their representatives to Lawrence to take part in activities under the supervision of the University. Last winter, the basket ball teams played a series of games on the floor in Robinson gymnasium with the result that the team representing the Lawrence high school won all the games for which they were scheduled in the tournament and took the championship cup. During the winter, the extension department of the University sent package libraries to the students of the high schools of the state who were preparing for their commencement orations and the debates which were held by the high schools of the Kansas High School Debating League. After a process of elimination, which covered a period of three months, Ashland and Montgomery were left for the final debate at Lawrence May 5. Ashland won the state championship in debate. The eighth annual interscholastic track meet resulted in a victory for the Lawrence squad who won the meet by a score of 51 points, their nearest competitor being the Kansas City, Kansas men who scored 14 points. Several of the men who made the best records in the first interscholastic meet will be entered in the track meet today and the time made by some of the men who will run in the short and long races is such that several records may be broken. These activities of the high school students in connection with the University cement a firmer relation between the University and the secondary schools of the state and afford a chance for the men of the high schools to become acquainted with the people at the University.
