Joe Kase Appears
as Likely Candidate
for Olympic Honors
Joe Knse, formerly unknown, but
now u likely candidate for Olympic
honors, smashed the world's record in
the 100 yard dash beyond repair when
he negotiated this distance in a secial
event at the western Nebraska track
meet lust Friday afternoon. His time
for the entire dash was nine and one
fifth seconds. (This time taken by Mr.
Kase who noted the time when he
t-tarted and when he finished from his
lugersoll.) Only four entered the race
with this now famous speedster, the
three hcing "Kill" Harier, Glen 'Flash'
Sanders and "SjKjed" Neiman. It is
not known as yet whether the record
will be accepted as good by the A. A.
U., as there was a slight wind leliind
the runners. The starter claims, how
ever, that sensing a new record, he
waited for the wind to tlie down be
fore he stalled the men. Mr. Kase
states that had he been pushed he is
sure he could have traveled the route
in nine seconds flat. All of the run
ners were m street ciotnesj uue to
the fact that the race was a rather
impromtu alfaijr. Should Mr. Kase
pM slightly more back to nature, there
is little doubt but that he could have
lowered his new record at least two te
conds. The race as a matter of fact was
gotten up rather in the spirit of fun,
each man "chipping in" until a pot of
$3.50 was raised. This was to go to
the winner, and but for the fact that W.
It. Pate worked on the sympathies of
the stake holder, Hev. B. J. Minort,
mil got him to donate the money to
the high school athletic fund, it would
have. More talent was uacovered when
it was found that Mr. Kase was unable
to catch the hky pilot, who promptly
left the field. Had Rev. Minort been
in the race there is no way of telling
what heights of terrific sjhxhI might
huve lxcn reached. However, Mr.
Kase has the honor, and the high
whool has the money, so all's well.
Many Western
Records Broken
at Track Meet
The track meet Friday considerably
.hanged the list of western Nebraska
records, only six of the old records-
remaining unbroken. Uailey and Lin-
.fle brought the high hurdles record
ven with the stute mark in this event,
i'hc two oldest records, the relay held
by Alliance, and the broad jump re-
ord held by Semnions of Kayard were
broken. All of the records standing at
present were made either in '21 or
22. Semmons' record in the century
dash equals the state record, whi'e
I-owry's mark in the javelin probj.bly
surpasses anything that has ever lecn
made in the state, although this is not
a state meet event. Following are the
records:
100-vnrd daslvr-Scmmons, Kayard,
10 1-r., 1!21.
220 yard dash Dailey, Alliance, 22
410 yard dash Strong, Alliance,

Some Old Records
May Be Broken
at the State Meet
It seems likely, from reports coming
in from over the state, that the rec
ord; of the state track meet arc likely
to fall. One that seems most in dan
ger is the broad jump, of twenty-one
leet 2Mi inches. Rhodes of Ansley
lumped 22 feet 1 inch in a meet
lately, while Wier of Superior has
eoualed the record.
The 220-yard dash, which has stood
since 1904 will also have a numler of
young athletes earnestly trying to ruin
it, and as a numlier have been run
ning this distance in alxiut a fifth
slower than the state mark of 22:2 it
will at least be in danger. Dai lev of
Alliance, if in shaiM?, will have a good
chance to establish a new record, 'ihe
high hurdles, another old record seeris
in dnnger, nnd this from Lingle of
Morrill. Lingle was clocked with
Dailey at 1G 3-5, both equaling the
record, while Lingle later in the dav
made it one fifth of a second less, but
was di. qualified for knocking down
three hurdles.
The old record of 10 1-5 in the H
yard dash is likely to be equaled, but
will probably not be broken, for the
high school athlete who can hang up
a mark of 10 seconds under rendition,
such as prevail at the state meet i
little short of a marvel. Rhodes of
Ansley might break his own record in
the pole vault, but this is unlikely
The 440-yard dash mark, which is not
extremely fast might' be broken,
Wilbur Hi School
Win the State
'22 Pentathlon
Wilber high school won the state
interschoolastic pentathlon for 1921
with a team total of 15,59 points
This betters the mark hung up bj
Beatrice last year by 178 points. Thi
record make by such an obscure team
as the Wilberites is little short o
marvelous, and the state meet wili
show definitely whether or not thi
team can duplicate their record. Beat
rice, last year's champs, walked awaj
with the state meet. It remains to Ik
seen if the Wilber athletes can repeal
this feat. North Platte, finishing sec
ond, has tome good men, particular
in Locke and Shaner, and will no doubt
make any team in the state step.
The record of Kd Wier of Superioi
in rolling up a total of 4,781 oints i
one that will seldom if ever be dupli
cated. Records for 1922.
120-yard high hurdles L'. Weir, Su-
jierior, 16 2-5 seconds.
220-yard dash Locke, North Tlatte,
21 1-5" seconds.

Pole vault J. Rhodes, Ansley. 12
feet.
Broad jump E. Weir. Superior. 22
feet, 2'i inches.
High jump E. e;r, Superior. 5
leet ' inches.
Of the eight event, the state record
was broken in all but three. Locke
of North Platte broke a record of long
standing when he stepped the 220 in
22 1-5. Ihe state record is 1-5 of a
second slower. These records do not
of course have any official standing as
state records as the state records must
be made at the state meet. Weir
beat the state mark by an even foot
when he broad-jumped 22 feet 2'i
inches. Weir also ran the high hur
dles one-fifth of a second faster than
the state mark.
Ralph Garvin, of Alliance high fin
ished twenty-first in the state, while
I'ailey was thirty-fourth, with Beal
father down on the list. Strong was
also in the honorable mention list.
Dailey, Strong and Beal, have all made
records since the closing of the pent
athlon, which if they could have been
included would have placed them much
higher. Garvin s throw of 112 feet
with the discus was the third best in
the state, while Real's record in the
half mile was also third. The Alliance
team as a whole finished eleventh in
the state, of eighteen entries.

Omaha Central
Shows Up Well
in School Meet
Omaha Central conclusively demon
strated that they will make them all
step in the state meet from the results
of the Omaha inter-school track meet.
Price, Omaha Central colored sprinter,
set a new record of 22 seconds in the
220-yanl dash and also broke the tape
in the 440 in 4! 2-5 seconds. These
records are of course not to be taken
at face value as they were made with
a strong wind behind the runners.
Ordinarily the dusky sprinter would
i . "'.i.bly run the 440 around 53 sec
onds, and the 220 in about 23 seconds.
All the records are very giod, how
ever, and the team that beats Ceniial

The home owner can truly snap his finger at care,
while the rent payer carries on his shoulders the yoke
of servitude a slave to his landlord.
The illustration might well read, "Which WILL you
BE?" for the building situation is daily opening the eyes
of hundreds of rent payers the fact it costs no more
to buy your own home (at the low cost of material and
labor today) than your rent costs. And it's YOUR
OWN HOME.
Let us prove to you the true economy of owning your
home.
