'Track wonder' of century in action...
This elaborate machinery of the 3M Company was used to lay the artificial track surface in Memorial Stadium last fall. Total cost was somewhere above the $125,000 donated for the all-weather Tartan surface by Jim Hershberger.
Women's 100-yard dash shapes up
The women's 100-yard dash field for the 45th Kansas Relays shapes up as the finest ever at the Jayhawk carnival.
Dr. John Davis Jr. of Topeka, AAU official and prime mover in the women's track program, points out that all eight sprinters invited for the 100 have run in the national championships the past two years and all competed during the past indoor campaign.
Pacing the field will be Pam Greene of Denver, a 16-year-old newcomer at the national level who made the U.S. women's team last summer and ran a surprise second behind American ace Barbara Ferrell in the Russia-British Commonwealth-U.S.A. meet to provide the turning point for the first victory in history over the Russian women.
Mollie Hence and Amanda Hornesburger, both of Alcorn A&M, Lorman, Miss., turned in successful indoor seasons and opened the outdoor season with times of 10.9 and 11.0 at the Texas Southern Relays in Houston.
Diane Knight of the Texas Track Club and Rebecca Davis, who formerly ran with the Topeka Cosmo Club and now competes for Southwest College, are four year veterans of high level track competition.

Hawks square off against Wildcats
Kansas seeks its first Big Eight baseball victory of the season as the Jayhawks take on arch-rival Kansas State in Lawrence this weekend.
Pitching, the questionable aspect of KU's game at the season's start, continues to shine. The Jayhawks gave up only eight runs against the powerful Sooners.
Kansas takes a 5-4 overall and 0-3 league record into the Wildcat series after dropping three close decisions to Big Eight favorite Oklahoma. Kansas State is 13-9 overall and 3-3 in the conference.
The three-game series opens to KU's Quigley Field with a doubleheader Friday at 1:30 p.m. Saturday's single game has been moved up to 11 a.m. to allow fans to attend the baseball game ahead of the afternoon session of the Kansas Relays.
KU coach Floyd Temple was pleased with the play of Ken Carpio, junior from Kansas City, who saw a lot of action in centerfield.
Although outhitting OU, 14-13, Kansas found it tough to score on the experienced Sooner hurlers, getting only four tallies for the series.
For the K-State series, Temple
was undecided about his pitching rotation.
"I was real pleased with the entire staff," Temple said. "I'll have to decide what order to throw them."
KSU has the experience to make a run at the league title. Coach Bob Brasher has 16 lettermen back from the 1969 outfit that had a 17-15 mark and a fourth place Big Eight finish.
Seven veteran pitchers are back, led by Nick Horner, all-conference selection in 1968. Top regular returning is all-Big Eight second baseman Bill Huisman, who hit .386 last spring.
