School athletes participated In the game. The Key Club is a Kiwanis-spon sored organization. L e e m a n said he was not aware of the game involving athletes until after it had been played. He notified the IHSAA in Indianapolis of the suspensions in a routine report and was told the suspensions were in accordance wtih a rule in the association’s code. Richard B. Edwards and Thomas G. Medland, fathers of two of the local athletes involved, went before the IHSAA Board of Control in Indianapolis in an effort to have the suspensions reversed, but failed. “The rule has been on the books 30 or 40 years and the board isn’t about to change it,” said IHSAA commissioner Phil N. Eskew. He said only the IHSAA Athletic Council is empowered to change rules. Leeman said he had no choice but to declare his boys ineligible until next February, but Medland and Edwards sought a legal recourse, especially because “there is no way to appeal.” “It’s like taking a year out of a bo^s life that can never be replaced,” said Edwards. "Athletics play a big part in a boy’s activities in high schooL” Eskew conceded it was an unfortunate situation, but there was nothing he could do about it He said it’s the responsibility of individual schools to acquaint their athletes with IHSAA rules. He said the IHSAA will go to court, if sued, to protect and defend its rules and regulations. This hasn’t happened since the late 1950s when private parties in Seymour sued in the Stevenson case. The Indiana Supreme Court upheld the IHSAA for declaring Billie Joe and Frank Stevenson ineligible. The IHSAA had charged that “undue influence” was used in moving the Stevenson family to Seymour from Joppa, HI. The two boys were considered outstanding basketball prospects.

Kansas Relays I I Are Underway

LAWRENCE, Kan. UPI — Blue skies, light winds and moderate temperatures today set the stage for an assault on the track and field records of tlie 41st annual Kansas Relays. The classic opened Thursday with Olympian Jim Ryun, 18-year-old American mile recordholder, running a 3:59 anchor leg in the freshmen distance medley relay. Hiis performance pulled the Kansas team to victory and a record of 9:50.4, improving by 0.9 the old mark also set by Kansas. Opening events Thursday were mostly in the freshmanjunior college division. The only main event, the 10,000-meter run, went to Pat Mahon of Oklahoma Baptist, the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAIA), cross country champion. His time was 30:19.3. Defending champion Lee Courkamp of Denver finished sixth. Don Lakin of Fort Hays Kansas State was mime nip. A Tennessee school teacher, 34-year-old Phil Mulkey of Memphis, seeks his eighth decathlon title here. Mulkey first won the Kansas decathlon in 1956 and followed with five consecutive victories from 1958 through 1962 before winning again last year. Preliminaries were scheduled today in most relays, individual track and field events to fill Saturday’s program of championship competition.

BILLY HERMAN, the very likeable Red Sox manager, was one of the fine second basemen in baseball history during his playing days but he did have som$ trouble in the error column. He holds the modern record for leading second basemen in errors, four times, although he also holds several records for putouts and finished a major career of 1,922 games with a .304 batting mark. “Errors” have plagued Billy in his golf game, too, and he’s one of the finest of linksmen among the baseball men. In his last game before spring training opened he turned in a 79 but three-putted on the last hole. Last year the Boston club, which he was managing for the first time, made 162 errors, more than any of eight other clubs in the league and the Sox lost plenty of games with miscues at key times. • • • “WITH so many young fellows on our squad this year,” he told us in spring camp, “you can't predict what they will do. Although I'm hoping we can tighten up on our defense.” In their first two games this year the Red Sox made three errors, figuring in the final result Billy was a bit upset naturally, and hoped that things would change. It didn’t In the third game, his young infield made three errors in one inning, at a time his team was in front by four runs, and before the series with the Indians ended his club had made 10 errors in three games. Herman already has done some switching in an effort to bolster the defense. At this writing it hasn’t helped, but Billy will keep trying and hoping. * • e AND, if he thinks his club is bad defensively, he might take some solace from looking at the record of other teams and he won’t feel so bad. Although it sounds impossible, the Detroit Tigers made 425 errors in a 136-game season in 1901 and the old Brooklyn club made 408 errors in the 1905 season. And, for Billy’s benefit, the Tigers made 12 errors in one game in that 1901 season and the old Chicago White Sox made the same number, an even dozen, in one game in 1903. Although the Bosox made 162 errors last season, that wasn’t as bad as four other clubs in the majors. The Cubs and Mets each booted it 171 times, the Astros 166 times and the Twins, even in winning a pennant, came up with 172 errors.
