YOU REALLY DON'T -C EXPECT TOO MUCH.J—~ Sime Challenges Morrow Duke University’s fabulous Dave Sime has thrown down a challenge to Bobby Morrow and is eager to race against the Olympic star in what amounts to the Texan’s own back yard. Sime’s coach, R. E. Chambers, asked for and was extended an invitation to enter Ms team to the 1958 American Business Club relays, which will be staged in Big Spring April 4-5. Chambers said he would bring Sime and nine other members of the Blue Devil squad, including a couple of relay teams, to Big Spring. Abilene Christian College, which Morrow attends, had previously been entered in the ABC show by Coach Oliver Jackson. The two great sprinters have met twice in history and each holds a victory over the other. They have not met since 1956, however. Morrow was quoted earlier in the week as saying he was look ing forward to meeting Sime in competition this year and was ready to meet him anywhere, any time. ' The University of Texas also notified P. W. Weaver, director of the 1958 relays, that it would send a 25 man squad here. In all, eight teams are now entered in the university class here and no more will be accepted, since Memorial Stadium, site of the 'games, has an eight lane track and no preliminaries will be run. Other schools committed to com pete include the University of Houston, SMU, North Texas State and Texas Tech. The meet is also open to junior colleges and high schools, of the Southwest. Upwards to 600 athletes from over a wide area ate due to take part. FOR THE FINEST IN Freshman Greens SEE LEON B. WEISS Next To Campus Theater North Gate WHY WAIT?

Inc.
