TIE DT HIGH JUMP IS PIVOT Referee Orders it Jnniped Off, Ne braska Winning, hat Jayhawkers Hold Points Should Hare ' Been Divided. LINCOLN. May 28. (Special.) The Uni versity of Kansas has refused to admit that Nebraska won the dual track meet held at the state fair grounds Saturday afternoon and the Cornhuskers may be forced to concede tho victory In that con test to the Jayhawkers by a score of to 671.! points. Al the end of the games Saturday alternoon the score was an nounced as 59 to 58 in favor of Nebraska. Kansas, however, protested the decision In the high Jump, by which Nebraska was permitted to take second place and win the meet. It Is this point which Is now In controversy and which will probably be carried to the Missouri valley conference for a settlement. In the high Jump aSturday, Smith of Kansas won first place, but Hamel of Nebraska and Johnson of Kansas tied for second place, failing to clear the bar In three trials at the height of five feet five inches. Then on the order of Referee Phil pott, Hamel and Johnson took three more Jumps at the bar and Hamel cleared It on his second leap, winning second place. Coach Hagerman of Kansas allowed his athlete to Jump the three extra trials under protest. He claimed that the rules under which the meet was held specified thai In case of a tie on three trials the points should be divided. At thai time he con tended that Hamel and Johnson should each be given one and one-half points. Such an apportionment would have given the meet to Kansas by a score of 69'- to 67V. Contract Is Vague. The contract between the two schools for the meet called for the games to be governed by the National Intercollegiate rules. This contract was drawn up by Manager Lansdon of Kansas, who had In mind, he says, the Intercollegiate rules of the Association of Amateur Athletes of America. These rules specify that the points shall be divided In case of a tie, and if they governed the meet Saturday the points In the high Jump should have been divided and the contests awarded to the Jayhawkers. But Manager Eager of Nebraska de clares that he had In mind a set of na tional Intercollegiate rules when he signed the contract. There are no such rules, though, and here Is where the rub comes. Nebraska claims that the contract calls for national intercollegiate rules and it does but there are no rules bearing that title. Referee Philpott at the time he ordered the Jumpers to take three more trials at the bar did not have a set of rules with him, but he knew that the rules of the Amateur Athletic union of the United States provide for three additional trials In case of a tie, after which. If neither ... . , ' , ' . . athlete clears the bar, the points shall be divined. He mane his ruling in the broad Jump on the basis of the Amateur Athletic union rule. But since the contract signed by Manager Lanttdon of Kansas and the manager for Nebraska specified that the national intercollegiate rules should gov ern the meet, the Amateur Athletic union rules could not rightfully be made the basis of a ruling. Manager Lansdon, who arrived In Lin coln with the Kansas base ball team to day, declares all college rules specify that in case of a tie in any track event the points shall be divided. He asserts that Dr. Clapp Is trying to make a technicality out of the failure of the contract to state the "Intercollegiate association" rules in stead of the "National Intercollegiate" rules. He says Kansas will never concede Nebraska the meet and that hia athletic board will carry the matter to the Mis souri Valley conference body for settle ment. Opinion of Five Experts. Manager Kaser of Nebraska lied a con ference with Manager Lansdon at the Lln dell this morning and un agreement was reached whereby letters are to be written to the athletic directors at five big schools asking them their opinion In the mattor. Manager Eager says his school will be willing to abide by the majority opinion of those five colleges. The schools which will be asked will be Yale, Chicago, Wisconsin, Illinois and Iowa. Dr. Clapp, for his side, argues that since there were no definite rules for the meet that the three extra trials should have been taken. He asserts It la the custom at other colleges to Jump off a tie. In asking the opinion of the five schooU, they will albo be requested to state what the custom In their dual meets has been respecting the ties. If three os aiore of those schools declare they have always divided the points Nebraska will concede the meet to Kansas. The Jayhawkers. however. In case of an adverse opinion from the five schools, will carry the contention up to the conference. u.n.r lansdon is very confident that .hi. divide the points In case of t tie. The trophy which the winner of the meets receives Is in the possession or Man ager Eager, but' Nebraska's name name has not been engraved on It yet and will not be until a decision has been reached. Referee Philpott has refused to render a final decision until the managers nf the two schools agree as to what rules should have governed the meet. Manager Lansdon this morning took oc casion to deny the source of a dlspat 'h from Lawrence that appeared In a local paper this morning announcing that Kan sas was coming to Lincoln determined to be awarded the meet or else not play base ball with the Cornhuskers today and to morrow.

HOME AFTER THESE EIGHT GAMES Should at Least Break Even Awsy front Home and Come Back Pre pared to Jump Into First Place In Race. The fight for gupremacy In the Western league has now really begun. The race has proceeded far enough to see that U lies between Omaha, Sioux City and Des Moines. Denver will have to brace up If It expects to tret in. Omaha won eleven of fourteen games played on Its home grounds, and It Is play ing fast ball and doing excellent team work, but It must continue to do alt that to best either Des Molne or Sioux City, for both these teams are going Just aa fast. The Rourkea begin a four-gama series In Sioux City today, then go to Dea Moines for four, and then return home for twelve, taking on Lincoln, Des Motives and Sioux City at Vinton street park. The pitching staff has steadied down and 1 working systematically. On Its face It appears to be the most consistent In the league. The team's batting Is next to the highest and seven memhers are over ,9(). In base stealing it Is a leader, and also Jn the whole of the Inside game. Omaha fans expect at the very least an even spilt on the eight games away from home, and then, returning home at least In second place, the Rourkes should have no trouble In forging Into first place during those twelve games. As a matter of fact. If they come home In first place nobody will be surprised, though It will not do to dis parage the work of the two Iowa teams. Omaha struck Its gait this season on the home grounds with Topeka. On Its initial western trip its pitchers went lame In th winter weather that prevailed and did not recover until after Wichita had walked out of Omaha with two of three games, Topeka got out of town with one of fou' games and then Omaha braced up with Schlpke and Keeley and took four straight from Denver and three from Pueblo. Pa Rourke has six pitchers in Sanders. Hollenbeck, Johns, Lower, Swalm and Keeley, that will be hard to beat and he proposes to keep all of them throughout the season. So there Is a tip to any of those competitors of his not to begin lo count on Pa reducing his pitching staff. He Is in this fight to win this year. He has done some excellent assorting and wecdlng-out and Is carrying no dead tim ber at the present writing. Omaha will wind up in Sioux City Mon day, In Des Moines June 4 and start In again at home with Lincoln June 5. It will be at home until June 17, when It starts In on four games at Lincoln and moves on west. GLEN COVE. N. T.. Msy .-Mlss Julia R. Mix of Englewood. N.
