Huskers Have Real Battle With Jayhawks The Kansas Relay carnival appears destined to become ot national promi nence. The appearance of teams from the University of Pennsylvania and Texas in addition to Big Ten and Mis ' souri Valley squads, gave Saturday's inaugural meet a national savor. Kansas handled the affair In such an efficient manner Saturday that many more schools will be represented next year. Until last year the Drake Relays always preceded the Penn Relays one ■neck. This year as last year, they are held on the same day thus split ting the country into two sections. The Kansas Relays coming a week earlier is not handieapdd this way, and should draw teams from the whole country-. Quakers’ Defeat an I psot. From the resulls of the Relays’ K. U. again "owns the Valley!” The Jayhawkers placed in 4 of the 6 re lays, winning two firsts, a second, and a third. Nebraska was second, placing in three relays. The Corn huskers won the 2-mile relay, and took seconds in the 4i0 and SSO re lays. Drake took two thirds. Iowa, Illinois, Texas, Minnesota, Pennsyl vania, Kansas Aggies, Missouri, Wis consin, and Oklahoma each placed in one relay. The defeat of the Quakers at the hands of the Lone Star Staters was not according to Hoyle. In the past three years Quaker quartets have set world's records for the following re lays: Four hundred meters, SOO meters, one mile and two miles. We have come to expect much of Penn’s relay teams ;The Quakers, however, forced the winners to run within 1 1-10 Second of the world’s record for the medley distance. The distances are 220, 440. 8S0 and mile. The world’s record of 7:44 2-5 was made in 1909 by the Irish-Amerlcan A. C., Archer, Rosen berger, Kiviat and Bromilow com prising team. Huskers to Meet Kansas. In the nine special events, lOO vard dash, high and low hurdles, and 6 field events, K. U. again captured the lion’s share, closely pressed by other Kansas schools. With scoring on a conference meet basis we would find teams placed as follow: Kansas 16 1-2. Kansas State Normal, 15. Haskell, 13 1-2. Kansas Aggies, 13. * Nebraska, 8 1-2, Haskell placed in five events, Kansas Stat* Normal and Kansas Aggies in four, knd Nebraska and Kansas in three. From the dope' so far it looks as though Schulte's Cornhuskers will have a real battle when they meet the Jayhawkers at Lincoln, May 5. And Haskell doesn't look easy on ( paper either. The Indians meet Ne braska May 12. But before the Mis souri Valley conference at Ames. May 24 and 25, we expect to see Schulte's proteges rounding into form. At present fechulte Is laboring under the greatest difficulties. The varsity track is .all torn up in prep aration for the Stadium. The Lin coln high school track is soft. Wes leyans track is half an hour away from the campus. A dirt track is being constructed across the street from the gymnasium between the tennis courts and the Social Science building. This may solve the problem. Although realizing the tremendous odds he is facing, Comhusker fol lowers have supreme confidence in Schulte; and believe that this track wizard, who brought the first Valley track championship to Nebraska, and who repeated last year, will make it , three straight by winning again this ypar.

Surprising strength on the part of the Wichita Witches has featured the piay in the annual Western league race thus far this season. The Witches, with practically a new team, have managed to win seven of their nine games and lead the league. ‘'Baldy” Isbell's entry in theN race has been playing good ■ball and together with the pitching of House, who hurled a three hit game against Sioux City last w'eek. has managed to win a majority of its games by good margins. Tulsa, last year’s champions, is play ing true to the dope. The Oilers have won six and lost four games, which Includes Sunday’s game. Tulsa led the league in double plays in the first week with nine. ’’Tank” Davis, the Oiler outfielder. who led the league In home runs last season with 35. has annexed six homers. Davis’ hitting along with that of Lellvelt and Lamb has helped the Oilers to move up into second place in the standings. I,ead in Homers. The 1922 champs lead the league as a club In homers, .having stacked up ,17. Oklahoma City and St. Joesph have manged to remain in the first di vision ' of the league. The Indians have been going along at a pretty good clip, playing good consistent ball. St. Joseph played the weaker teams last week and succeeded in piling up enough victorias to land In the first group of clubs. Sioux City Is gradually rounding in to form and while the Packers don’t look to be very strong in the pitch ing department or hlttting. they have won fiv4 and loat four contests and are tied with the Saints for fourth position. , The Buffaloes are not doing so well. However, Omaha easily trimmed the Saints Sunday. The club has the hitting and fielding ability, hut lacks good pitchers. Speeoe, the former1 State leaguer, la the only member of the herd's hurling staff who Has won two games this season. Des Moines and Denver, an expect ed, have lost the majorlt -yof their games. Pitching I .it11<- Loose. That pitching has been a little loose during the opening week of playing is evident from the fact that six seven-hit games, five 10-hit games, seven 12-hlt contests, eight 11 hit sanies, five 10-hit games, seven 13 hit games, one four-hit game, one three-hit game, one 14-hit game, One 16-hit game, one 17-hit game, two IS- ! hit games, one 22 hit game and one 19-hit gamb has bobbed up. The most runs scored in on* in ning during the first week of [day j was 12, scored by Des Moines in the ninth Inning against St. Joseph. April 17. The feat turned a 7 to 4 defeat into a 16 to 7 win for Des Moines. Fifty-one homers w er» clouted out in the first week of play. Out of this total, 30 were punched out at Tulsa, j 17 at Wichita, with the remainder ^distributed between Oklahoma City : and St. Joseph. The only triple play so far for the year was registered by Wichita against Des Motnes April 15.
