#IIIII THE UNIV. OF TEXAS AT AUS'fiN SPORTS NEWS SERVICE JONES RAMSEY/BILL LITTLE MARCH 29, 1968 (FOR SUNDAY MORNING PAPERS OF MARCH 31) (Release at 6 p.m. Saturday)

AUSTIN, Tex., March 30 --Another crack sprint medley field has been lined up for the Texas Relays this week according to director Jack Patterson. The University and College division sprint medley races are by invitation only with eight of the best teams available selected for each class. They will be held Friday at 8 p. m. The College division field will be announced later. Patterson said the University field would include co-favorites Notre Dame and Oklahoma with such classy contenders as host Texas, Drake, SMU, Baylor, Lamar Tech and Oklahoma State. All eight teams are capable of running 3:20 or better. This entertaining relay features two opening 220 legs followed by a 440-yard lap and topped off with a half-mile anchor carry. This is the race in which Kansas, with producing a 1:46.1 anchor, posted a new world record of 3:15.2 here last year. In that one, KU ran away from the field. Kansas is not defending its title this tfme. KU coach Bob Timmons announced the Jayhawkers instead would go in the distance medley earlier

Friday evening and Ryun, if his injured leg is OK, is slated for anchor duty on the distance medley baton event. Notre Dame draws the favorite's role because of the Irish's great balf-miler, Pete Farrell, who owns a 1:47.8 best in the 880.

The Sooners rank near the top because of sprinters Wayne and Glen Long, qua.rter-miler Tom Melton and Cline Johnson on the anchor.

Host Texas has to be considered a top contender because of the recent showings of frosh Dave Morton who owns a 46.8 quarter off the blocks and David Matina who ran a 1:50.8 open half recently. The Longhorns won this event two years ago and are anxious to put some Orange and White back in the Relays. SMU was second last year and returns its fine anchorman, Leroy Storbeck, one of the top middle distance runners in the Southwestconference. The Ponies have Merlin Eck and Bruce Cameron doing the opening 220s and Jim Hatfield on the 440.

Lamar Tech can dazzle the baton with Waverly Thomas on the 440 handing off to Randy

Clewis. These two runners are on the Tech mile relay team t~'a.t owns the state's best of 3:07.5 at the Border.

Drake, with a torrid 3:26 sprint medley indoors recently, may take all the marbles if Brent Slay (440) or Ray Dunn (880) have any say in the matter. That indoor clocking converts to far below 3:20 outdoors. Baylor, with Barry Reno on the anehor, and Oklahoma State, with John Cook, round out the fine University field. Several world and American record holders will be in the Relays this week beginning with the 6-mile run Thursday at 4. Finals are set for Friday night and Saturday afternoon. 11111 THE UNIV. OF 'rEXAS AT AUSTIN SPORTS NEWS SERVICE JONES RAMSEY/BILL LITTLE MARCH 29, 1968

(FOR RELEASE IN MONDAY MORNING PAPERS OF APRIL 1)

AUSTIN, Tex., March 31 --Track teams from the Lon~ Star state are girding themselves this week for the annual invasion of the Big Eight and :Midlands powerhouses with the Texas

Relays providing the spiked battleground. This big track and field classic has long been a battleground for cinder supremacy between Texas teams and those Northern invaders from North of the Red River.

Two years ago the Lone Star teams out-ran the visitors in the seven University division relays, taking five of the relays. Last year it waa 4-3 with Texas teams on the

short end as Oklahoma and Kansas each won two events As if the Big 8 powers weren't enough, this year the invaders have been fortified by recent absentees Notre Dame and Nebraska, plus per~nnial powers Drake and Southern Illinois. Rice, Texas and Lamar Tech will be the Lone Star favorites to stave off this invasion. Oklahoma add Rice should slug it out in the 440 and 880 relays with Southern Illinois providing contenders in the latter event. The mile relay should be one of the best ever.. with Lamar Tech, Rice and Texas fielding good ones to go against crack quartermilers from Drake, Southern Illinois, Oklahoma and Kansas. Notre Dame and Oklahoma hold the favorite roles.in the sprint medley but Texas has a good on~ featuring frosh ace Dave Morton and junior half-miler David Matina.

Drake and Kansas should have a battle royal in the fo"r-mile. Drake coach Bob karnes feels his four milers can run with anyone. All have broken 4:12, but KO always has a great stable of milers around and has won the event in eight of the last 11 years including the last four in a row. Kansas can claim the distance medley if Jim Ryun is ready to go. KU has entered Ryun in the distance medley Friday night and the Jerry Thompson open mile Saturday, but the world record holder strained a hamstring in practice last week. After breaking the world sprint medley record here last year (3:15.2) the Jayhawks got the world mark (9:33.8) in the distance medley at Drake. While the Big 8 and midlands are fighting the Texans, another great contest will be going on in the College division between Texas Southern, Grambling, Southern University, Howard Payne, Ft. HaJs, Trinity and a host of tine teams from Texas, Kansas and Louisiana.

The 41st version of the Relays get underway with Billy Mills in the six-mile run at 4 p.m. Thursday. Prelims will be held Friday at 10 with finals slated Friday night and Saturday afternoon. Individual headliners will be Ryun, Randy Matson and Jim Hines of the Houston Striders, Charlie Greene, Lennox Yearwood of Grambling, Keary Pearce of UT El Paso and Mills. 11/JIJIJ THE UNIV. OF TEXAS AT AUSTIN SPORTS NEWS SERVIDE JONES RAMSEY/BILL LITTLE MARCH 29, 1968 (FOR RELEASE IN MONDAY AFTERNOON PAPERS OF APRIL 1)

AUSTIN, Tex., April 1-- One of the classiest College division sprint medley fields in history has been assembled for the Texas Relays here Friday night. Included among the eight powerhouses are Southern University of Baton Rouge,

Prairie View A&M, Grambling and East Texas. Others include Stephen F. Austin, Kansas State of Pittsburg, Southwestern of Louisiana and Trinity ofSan Antonio. The race gets underway Friday night at 8 o'clock in Memorial Stadium, site of the 41st version of the giant outdoor track and field carnival.

Prairie View, mile relay winner last year in 3:07.8 placed third in the sprint medley a year ago and will have ace half-miler Felix Johnson on the anchor. Grambling, another Texas Relay absentee last year, has a strong team anchored by Lennox Yearwood of Trinidad who ran on his country's mile relay t•am that holds the current world record at 3:02.8. Running the quarter for Grambling will be Winston Shortt, another native of Trinidad who was a Pan American team champion last year. East Texas returns Carl Richardson who anchored the 1967 Relays run nerup in 3:19.4 while Trinity features sprint star Clyde Glosson and half-miler Dennis Bryant. The Texas Relays meet has attracted one of the best fields ever for the 1968 edition. A total of 26 University division teams are entered along with 25 sbhools in the College division. A special six-mile run featuring 1964 Olympic star Billy Mills jumpts the gun on the Relays at 4 p.m. Thursday. The University-College discus finals will be held Friday afternoon.

foresees an ~xcellent chance for a sub-four~lnute mile--a feat never before accompl!shad In Texas. "I'm optlatftstlc," Patterson said Monday as the Relays days of Thursday, Friday,

Saturday neared. ' 18°m thinking~ would have a better chance for the low time

wGthout Ryun, because the field would waftt for hftm to set the pace. ~ think we have five or six top mllers and a chance for a very fine mUle. If the weather

Is good, I think wo have the f~eld for four mWnutes." Kansasr,. sophomore sensat&on, -mo holds the world rcacord at 3:51.1, was forced i to cancel an appearance In the mile after suffering a slightly pulled hamstring muscle last \

A sure-enough sub-four~lnute man Is Tftm Danielson of San Diego ~tate, who ran 3:59.4 as an 18-year-old two years ago.

George Scott of A1buquer~e has a 3:42.4 In 1,500 meters, equivalent to

AUSTIN, Tex., April 2 --The University division mile relay is shaping up as one of the best ever assembled at the Texas Relays. This great baton event closes out the 41st Texas Relays at 4:10 p.m. Saturday. The Relays unfold Thursday at Memorial Stadium with a special six-mile run at 4 p.m. Prelims will begin at 10 Friday morning. Finals are Friday night and Saturday afternoon. Such classy teams as Rice, Lamar Tech, Kansas, UT El Paso, Oklahoma, Drake and host

Texas will be going after the University division record of 3:07.9 set by ACC in 1961. "The competition is there," relays director Jack Patterson announced as he ~lassy_/ checked over the~ field. "It may take a 3:10 or better jus.t to qualify for the finals," he added. Lamar Tech, with the great Randy Clewis anchoring, owns the state's best time at

3:07.5 while CleWis also has the top open quarter clocking at 46.4. But Tech will be hard-pressed by Texas and Rice of the Southwest conference and UT El Paso, in add'f:tion to speedsters from the Midlands -- Kansas, Oklahoma and Drake. Texas, with frosh ace Dave Morton, and Rice, anchored by Conley Brown, have met head-on four times this spring each team winning twice. In their latest race, at Corpus

Christi last week, Morton nipped Brown at the tape, 3:10. flat to 3:10.1. Morton had a 46 flat anchor carry. UTEP has logged 3:10.2 this year with Dave Morgon anchoring. Oklahoma and Drake, each with 3:08 potential, feature James Hardwick and Brent Slay on the anchor, respectively. Kansas is anchored by Ben Olison, who ran the quarter leg on KU's world record sprint medley race here last year. The Jayhawks can better 3:10. Other teams in the field, with times and anchormen, include Texas A&M (3:10.1) Curtis Mills, Southern Illinois (3:12) Ross MacKenzie, Nebraska (3:10) Dave Kudron, Missouri (3:12) Steve Halliburton, Houaton (3:10.7) Tony Pickett, Notrte Dame (3:12) Pete Farrell and Kansas State (3:12) .

compete in the 41st Texas Relays scheduled here April 5-6, Relays Director Jack Patterson announced Saturday.

The big outdoor track and field carnival will unfold in Memorial Stadium ~n The University of Texas campus at Austin with finals slated for Friday··night and Saturday afternoon.

Ryun, who lowered tbree world marks last year (in the open mile run and as anchor man on two relay teams) will be here with his University of Kansas team, while Matson, who raised his own world standard in the shot put last year, will compete

unattached. He has completed his el·1gib1U.ty at Texas A&M. Ryun is a junior. Matsin, gunning for an Olympic gold medal at Mexico City next fall, will be

in a special shot put. He had one of the best ever doubles {shot and discus) at the 1967

Texas Relays as he posted new Relays marks of 68-8 in tbe shot and 201-1 in the discus. Later last spring the giant from Pampa put the 16-pound ball 71 feet, 5 1/2 inches for the existing world record.

Ryun, the 20-year old phenom from Wichita. Kansas, lowered his own mile mark to

3:51~1 last summer after anchoring Jayh~k relay teams to new sprint medley and distance medley relay records. That sprint medley record thrilled 15,000 fans during the Friday night portion

of the Texas Relays. His ~:46.1 anchor lowered the sprint medley mark to 3:15.2. Later~ at the Drake Relays, Ryijn's 3:55.6 mile helped KU to a new world record of 9:33.8 in the

distance medley. It has not been established what events Ryun will run at Austin this year. Two

years ago he ran the open mile (featured Jerry Thompson mile) on Saturday afternoon. Last year he concentrated on baton work with his teammates, running anchor on the four-mile team

the day after posting the new sprint medley record. (MORE) . Jlli " page 2 texas relays

Patterson is going after the top half-dozen milers in the country. He already has cODIIIlittaents from three including former Texas aces Preston Davis, scourge of the recent

indoor season, and Richard Romo, the school and state's only sub-four minute miler. John Mason, a 4:01 miler from Ft. Hays State, also has accepted. Earlier, Patterson announced a streamlined, 40-evant schedule for the 41st Relays, and that the referee will be Stan Wright, great track coach at Western Illinois who was for 16 years coach at Texas Southern. Wright's great TSU teams once held every College division record at the Austin meet. His TSU teams thrilled Texas fans for years. Because of the Olympic year, a six-mile run has been added this time. It will be held at 4 p.m. on Thursday, jumping the gun on the mail, two-day relay carnival. Other new events include a spring medley relay for girls, high school pole vault and 880 relay and open 100-yard dash. 'the discus finals will be held Friday at 12:30 p.m. There will be 17 final events on Friday night and 21 more Saturday afternoon. Because of the recent NCAA and Southwest conference ruling making freshmen eligible for varsity competition, the Junior-College-Freshman division was cancelled. Two evewnts -- the Jerry Thompson Mile and the special 100-yard dash -- are

by invitation only to any eligible amateur. Four others are by invitation only to undergraduaa.es. These are the six-mile run, three-mile run and the College and University sprint medley relay events. Total events: Girls: 3. High School: 10. College: 6. University: 7. Open: 2.

BUSTIN, Tex., March 23 --Three more world record holders have entered the 41st Texas Relays scheduled for Memorial Stadium on the University of Texas cmmpus here April 5 and ( The three are Jim Hines, former Texas Southern University star, and Charlie Greene, former Nebraska sensation, each of whom tied the world record in the 100-yard dash last year, and Lennox Yearwood of Grambling College who ran on Trinidad's world record mile relay team.

These standard bearers join Jim Ryun of Kansas and Randy Matson, former Texas A&M weightman, who hold world records in the mile and shot put, respectively. Hines and Greene will run in an open 220-yard dash on Saturday afternoon while Hines also will run in an open 100-yard dash on Friday night. Relays director Jack Patterson announced that a select field would be invited to run with the two sprinters. Yearwood led off Trinidad's mile relay team that posted a world record of 3:02.8 in 1966. The mark still stands. He's down for Relays duty in the 440, 880 and mile relays and, if invited, in the College division sprint medley relay. The latter event is invitational at the Texas Relays.

Hines was a member of four winning TSU baton teams at the 1967 Texas Relays. He was voted the outstanding performer in the College Division while TSU was named the top team of the 40th Relays.

Greene anchored Nebraska to victory in the 440-yard relay in the 1965 Relays. Be is a 3-tfme Big 8 winner in the sprints. Hines ran his 9.1 century last May 13 at Houston while Greene's world mark came in the NCAA at Provo, Utah in June. They join and Harry Jerome as the world ' s only 9.1 sprinters. Ryun, who owns a 3:51.1 world mark in the mile, has been tabbed by KU coach Bob Timmons for relay duties at Austin again this year. He is not scheduled to run the Jerry Thompson mile. Last year Ryun, with a 1:46.1 anchor half, led Kansas to a 3:15.2 world record during the Friday night session of the Relays, and also ran on the Jayhawker fiour-mile baton team. At Drake later last year Ryun anchored Kansas to a world mark of 9:33.8 in the distance medley relay'. A special six-mile run kicks off the Texas Relays this year on ·Thursday afternoon at 4 o'clock.

The world record bolder (at 3:51.1) from Kansas will join a select field for

the Saturday afternoon feature of tba 41st Texas Relays to be held in Memorial Stadium here.

"We feel real fortunate that the youngster, though weary from a long indoor cam-· paign, and who will be doing same relay work with his teammates here, consented to run

in our special mile," Patterson said. "It's early in the outdoor season for most of these

visiting teams but we think the competition will be good enough to assure a good mile raceo"

Running against Ryun will be Tim Danielson of San Diego, who owns a 3:59.4 mile and

who won the recent indoor event; George Scott of Albuquerque who ran a sub-four

minute equivalent with his 3:42.4 1500-meters last week; John Mason of Ft. Hays State,

Jim Crawford of Harding College, Bob Camien of Emporia State and former UT star Preston

Davis, now in the army who has been the sensation of the indoor season.

Danielson, Crawford and Mason placed behind Richard Romo. former UT star who won the event last yearo Romo is teaching school in California and is unable to defend his title.· Except for the state of Texas teams, the Texas Relays is one of the first outdoor

meets for most of the country's track teams. This is one of the reasons Wes Santee's 4:00"5 Relays record still stands after 13 years. The former KU star posted the Jerry Thompson mile record at the 1955 Relays. The mark has withstood some of the nation's top m!lers

over the past 13 years. Ryun is scheduled to anchor the Jayhawker distance medley relay team here Friday

night, then double back with another mile the next afternoon. The 20-year old KU junior

from Wichita, Kansas ran back to back sub four-minute mUes at Drake last year, but they

came later in the spring after several outdoor meets. Ryun anchored two world r ecord r elay teams last spring (sprint medley at Texas and distance medley at Drake) before lowering his own world mile record at BBkersfield, Calif., last June.

The Relays added another world record holder when Keary Pearce~ an Australian at. UT El Paso, entered the three-mile run scheduled for Ffiday night. Pearce lowered the world

indoor two-mile standard recently with an 8:27.2 race at San Diego.

AUSTIN, Tex., April 3 -- One of the best races in over a decade is shaping up in the 440-yard relay of the University division this week at the 41st Texas Relays. In fact the 11-year old record of 40.2 set by Abilene Christian College when Bobby Morrow was running the anchor, could go.

Oklahoma came within\& tenth of the mark last year and just last week against UCLA in a West Coast meet the University of Kansas set a new school mark of 40.3. If these two Big 8 speed kings falter, Rice or Baylor from the Southwest could clatm the mark.

The Sooners return half of their defending champions 1n the Long twins, Wayne and Glen, while Kansas bas a better foursome than the one that placed 4th here last year. The Jayhawk entry is still anchored by Ben Olison but has three others on the first three carries. They are Stan Whitley, Jtm Hatcher and Julio Mead. Running for the speedy Rice Owls are Conley Brown, Bill Askey, Fred Cloud and Dale Bernaur anchoring. Baylor appears rounding into top form with Clyde Peach and Jimmy Jasper, two of the nation's top junior college runners of last year. Peach was the out- standing JC-Frosh per,urmer last year at the Texas Relays. The University 440 relay will be held Saturday afternoon at 3:35. These same teams and personnel will run the 880 relay on Friday night but that record will be hard to match. ACC also holds this mark and the 1:22.6 clocking was a world record when it was set in 1961. It was broken just last year by San Jose State's great team. Preltminaries in these two baton events and other races will begin Friday at 10 a.m. Finals will get underway at 7 o'clock Friday with more finals scheduled for Saturday afternoon.
