This roster includes both the Ixmghorn double individual win ners, Darrow Hooper, Texas A & M's mighty weight-heaver, and f aui i'auikner Abilene Christian's pole vaulter-javelin thrower. Hooper, holder of the national high school shot-put mark of 68-10, erected a new Texas rec ord of 53-1 in his favorite event. He also collected the discus at 148-9, thus establishing himself as an early favorite in both events here. Faulkner dethroned Ray Marek, the defending Texas and Kansas champion, in the javelin with a cast of 192-64. Marek won here last year at 205-43,. Meeks and Hoskins Other individual Texas winners scheduled to go after more glory here are Charles Meeks of Texas, who edged Kansas State's Herb Hoskins for the broad jump gonfalon; Hayden Fields, of Howard-Payne, in the 100; and Jerry Lemon, Oklahoma, and Jack Simpson, Texas A & M, who tied Faulkner for the pole vault crown at 13-9. This gang, along with most of the relay teams, set the stage at Austin for a revenge motif at Lawrence, Some of the favorites absorbed a lacing at Texas, and their subsequent improvement, plus juggling of various baton quartets, is certain to unfold a raft of spirited duels in the lee of Mt. Oread. Slight Edge Hoskins, for instance, will take dead aim at Meeks, the Southwest conference king. The latter won by of an inch at Austin and the -winning distance of 29 3 "was -far below what the stream lined K-Stater usually aecom-, plishes. His winning leap at Texas last year was 24-10y. He reached 25-2M against Kan sas in a dual last spring, and whipped Meeks in the Southwest Big Seven dual at 24-2. He was fourth in the nationals at 24-8. Marek is another potential avenger. Faulkner, the Texas con ference champ, didn't come close to him in any of the three major Midwest relay carnivals last year. Relay Duels There'll be some blood-letting in the relays too. This likely will be featured by double duels be tween Arkansas and Kansas in the distance hauls, and Oklahoma and Oklahoma Aggies in the mid dle distance trials. KU and Arkansas traded blows at Austin, the Jayhawks winning the Distance Medley in the ex cellent time of 10:14.4, just two and a half seconds more than the meet record, while the Razor- AROUND THE Twenty-One Alums Gather for Game By Shirley Murphy Iowa State alumni are really showing a big interest in the varsity-alumnae game coiqihg up May 5. Twenty-one alums have in dicated they're willing to play in -the second annual game with the Cyclone varsity, ' Jim Iverson, third leading scorer for Kansas State's Big Seven and Western NCAA champion basketball teahi, has had little time to relax since the close of the' court season. Besides being the number one pitcher on the K-State baseball team, the Wildcat junior has been elected to the Student Council, one of the college's highest stu dent offices. . Colorado baseball coach Frank Prentup, a very rugged individual whose nickname, "Chief," is a tribute to his Indian ancestry, has had his dignity considerably impaired recently by Dr. Forrest B. "Phog" Allen, notorious Kansas university basketball coach. . "Phog" took to calling Prentup many years his junior, "Prentie,w and the pseudonym was overheard by Prentup's colleagues at Colo rado, who have since then made the gymnasium of the Buff campus ring with "Hey, Prentie." Lonny "Barrymore" Chapman, two-miler at Oklahoma in 1947, is a successful player in Elizabeth B. Ginty's new comedy, "Missouri Legend." Chapman is a graduate of the Sooner drama school. Chapman portrays Jesse James, the Missouri outlaw who robbed banks by day and attended Baptist prayer meeting by night. Vernon Rice of the New York Post writes about his actions, "I doubt if those who came in contact with Jesse's revolver found his as boyishly charming as Lonny Chapman makes him, nor quite as likable, but after all Jesse is the hero of 'Missouri Legend. Under Chapman's thoroughly-winning portrayal, if you had a bank to be high-jacked, Jesse would be the man you would want to do it." No wonder the former Sooner runner fits the part so neatly. He is a native Missourlan. J backs were dethroning the Jay hawkers In their favorite, the Four-Mile. Heating the competitive gauge even more is the fact that the Porkers blew a 45-yard lead In the anchor carry of the first race as Herb Semper, Bill Easton's great distance steed, slaughtered Ollie Gatchell, Arkansas anchor, with a 4:14.6 mile, Johnny Mor ris' gang punished YU's second and third runners to gain a 150 yard lead on Semper in the Four Mile. The redhead trimmed off 115 yards of this bulge but never had a chance to overhaul Tom Hardin. Two-Yard Margin OU whipped A & M only two yards in the Two-Mile and the race might have been even tight er had not Ralph Taylor, Cow poke anchor, dropped the baton going into the final curve. The Sooners' time was a good 7:47.4. The Normans clipped the third place Ags by only 4-tenths of a second in the Sprint Medley which went in 3:31.9 on a slow track. Oklahoma has a little score settling of its Own to do in the Mile where Texas Aggies kept the Sooners from copping a fifth Aus tin baton title by a mere six inches in the good time of 3:17.0. Close Sprint Medley Most stinging duel in the col lege class will throw Chicago Loyola against Abilene Christian in the Sprint Medley. Bill Con rardyf Loyola's great middle dis tance driver, edged Leon Lepard of the Christians in a fine 1:53.4 anchor lap at Texas, to pull the Chicagoans home in the good time of 3:28.8, just :01.7 over the Kansas record. Four Nebraskans To 4-H Convo The 21st National 4-H Club Camp at Washington, D. C, will be held from June 13 to June 20, according to news received by the University Agricultural Extension Service. Four youths, two boys and two girls, from Nebraska have been awarded the all-expense trips to the camp. It's the highest honor that can come to a 4-H club member in Nebraska. They are: Calvin Kuska of Omaha, Law rence E. Murphy of Mitchell, Alene Oschner of Madison and Ruth Moritz of Lexington. William C. "Bill" Smith, as sistant state 4-H club leader at the University for the past three years and a half, has resigned to accept a position in Clacka mas county, Oregon. He will be county 4-H club agent and will be stationed in Oregon City. Mr. Smith's' resig nation is effective sometime in May. ; LOOP... The University of Nebraska baseball team maintained its win ning ways by dropping Wichita university 12-8 Tuesday to take the two game series from the Shockers. The Huskers were trailing 8-4 when they rallied in the final three frames of the seven inning fracus to collect eight runs. It wasn't until the sixth Inning that the Huskers were able to head the Kansans. George Nutt started on the mound for the Huskers and was relieved in the fourth inning for Dale Bunsen. Bunsen displayed some artful hurling and was able to stop a Wichita uprising. He then went on to pitch shut-out ball the rest of the way and gain his first credited victory of the season. It was Jack Shull's two run home run in the fifth that started the Huskers off on their fifth in ning rally. The Huskers shoved across four runs in this inning and the score stood at 8-8 at the end of the fifth. Bill Fitzgerald started off the sixth Inning with a single. He raced to third as centerfielder Bill Tibbetts errored on the play, let ting the ball go through him. Fitz gerald scored after the Shocker's relief pitcher, John Friendersdorf, threw a passed ball. Bob Diers continues to lead the Huskers batting parade. He col lected two hits to give him a sea son total of 12 hits in 20 appear ances at the plate.

Two reports were re ceived by the winning teams and those are the only results avail able. Defending All - University champion, Cornhusker Co-op, opened the defense of their, title by unloading an 18-hit attack on Sigma Alpha Mu to win easily, 25-5. Stu Nelson hurled four Innings of no-hit ball for the Cornhuskers before being relieved in the final fifth by Dick Hungerford. Hun gerford allowed the Sammies their only three hits and five runs. Nelson and Hungerford were also the batting stars for the vic tors as they collected four hits apiece. Both pitcher-sluggers clouted a pair of home runs to add to their prestige. 13 Errors The Sammies did nothing to help thfcir cause, however, as they were guilty of 13 errors over the five inning contest. The winners fielded cleanly. The victors started out fast and chalked up two runs in the first frame and added 12 more in a big second inning. Four more came in the fourth and six more in the fifth stanza. Delta Sigma Pi scored behind the brilliant pitching of Lloyd "? K1fy T .aef 1 e S TSr : Phi. 6-1. Hinkley was all the Deltas had to offer, but his masterful one-hitter was enough to stifle the power hitting of the Delta Sigs. The Delta Sigs led momentarily as they scored their only tally in the first inning on an error, a hit by second baseman Don Delli Pa oli and a passed ball. Big Second The Delta Pi's evened the score in their half of the first frame and then sewed it up in the second inning with four big ' runs.

Wildcats Meet Colorado in Two Contests Baseball is the headliner on the Kansas State home schedule this weekend as Coach Ray Waut hier's club tangles Friday and Saturday afternoon with Colorado in two Big Seven contests. Game .times are 3 p.m. Friday ana p.m, Saturday. ,"" ""' ." It will be the home debut for K-State's diamond crew. The Wildcats dropped their opening matches to Oklahoma at Norman last weekend. 2-11. and 5-9. Two earlier matches with Wichita were rained and snowed out. Although his club was decisve ly beaten by the Sooner forces, Wauthier was encouraged by his team's showing. Oklahoma had Played six previous games, while ,ot-w v,-0 v.catc the weather harried K-Staters had scarcely logged any infield time. "We definitely found out we need more batting practice," Wauthier commented. "They were getting everythirs they threw past us the first five innings." The new diamond coach thought his pitching corps stood up re markably well considering its lack of practice. Jim Iverson, who scarcely had time to shuck his basketball suit, pitched five no. hit innings in the opening OU 'game and had things well under control until two blooper singles and a foul-line-hugging triple got him in trouble 0l.WPAl.B1H4, PITCHED THS TIRST tm LtAQUfc ONB MtTTtft--JUHt at. tail --tor BcrtotC Out a?

Cech, repre senting Sigma Alpha Epsilon, de feated Jamie Curran of the Phi Delts to cop the individual hon ors while the Phi Delts edged Alpha Tau Omega 37-36 to take the team title and trophy. Cech and Curran engaged in a terrific battle before the Sig Alph finally won out. For Curran, it was his second runnerup in the I-M badminton tourney in two years. He reached the finals last year also but was deprived of the title by the independent whiz, Ghim Yeo. Yeo did not compete in this year's tourney. Curran, however, went far enough to give the Phi Delts the slim edge over the Taus.
