Annual Conference Classic Promises to Be Lively
Event as Nebraska, Oklahoma, Kansas State
Battle for Midwest Track Title.
With victory scalps (if Kansas, Oklahoma and Kansas State
dandling from the belts of their running pants, Coach Henry F.
Schulte's Cornhuskers opened their last week of extensive work
outs Monday before the crucial Big Six conference champion
ships here May 22 and 23.
Th 1MB rnnfflrenre classic O
wromises to be a lively meet. Ne-, '13 like Nebraska's year,
braaka upset the dope-bucket two
weeks ago by out-scoring the
Sooners. defending Bix Six cham
pion. Outdoor wins over Kansas
and Kansas State attest to the
Schultemen's track and field
prowess this year.
1933 was the last time that the
Huskers won the Big Six title. The
scores that year were Nebraska
71 1-3, Kansas 60 1-6. Kansas
State 31, Oklahoma 30 1-4. Iowa
State 22, and Missouri 9 1-4. Tne
Huskers boasted of such track
ters as Funk, Lambertus, Lee,
Roby, Toman, Hubka. Chambers,
Skewes, Gray, and Story, while
the runner-up Jayhawkers posses
sed a one-man track team in the
personage of barrel-chested Glenn
Cunningham.
Cunningham and his Jay team
mates were in their prime in 1934,
and walked away with the Big Six
title. The scores were , Kansas
68 1-2, Nebraska 54 1-3, Oklahoma
44 1-2. Kansas State 26 1-3, Mis
souri 22 5-6. Iowa State 21 1-2.
Last year there was a complete
reversal of team standings. Ok
lahoma led with 55 1-2, Kansas
State 53, Nebraska 36, Iowa State
32, Missouri 29, and Kansas 24 1-2.
Dope experts are pointing to
"Pa" Schulte's Cornhuskers to
lead the way this year, and judg
ing from previous performances
and comparative team power, 1936
Pessi
mistic as ever. Coach Schulte
stated Monday when asked of his
opinion of the Huskers' possibili
ties, "The top dog !s the one that
gets all the kicking around, and I'd
rather be the under dog so the
dopesters put us on top!"
However, the Schultemen have
been setting the pace all thru the
indoor and outdoor track and field
seasons. In the Texas, Kansas,
and Drake relays the Cornhuskers
have made impressive showings,
as well as knocking off three Big
Six colleges in dual meets.
There will be four champions,
including one record-holder, on
hand in Memorial stadium to de
fend their titles. Ray Noble, Kan
sas athlete, elevated the conference
vault mark to 13 feet 8 1-8 inches
last year and hopes to better his
record mark this year. Floyd
Lochner, Oklahoma, will defend
his two mile title against a strong
field, including Matteson of Ne
braska and Wheelock of Kansas
State. Paul Fanning, Kansas
State, and Laurence Minsky, Iowa
State, will defend their titles in the
discus and javelin respectively.
Nebraska's pride and joy, Sam'l
Francis, will be after a new shot
put record, and along with Fred
Shirley, will try for a new discus
mark. Francis has bettered on
several occasions Elwyn Dees'
record mark of 51 feet 3 3-4 inches.
"Jake" Jacobsen won the indoor
sprint honors at Columbia this
year, but has two fast marks to
shoot at In the Big Six outdoor
meet. Lock's 20.7 furlong and
Meier's 9.4 century are two very
fast runs.
The quarter mile race promises
to be interesting. Barrett of Ok
lahoma (indoor champ), Pankonin
of Nebraska, and Nixon of Kansas
State are the top men in the 440.
Distance runners will be aiming at
some tough records when they try
to beat Glenn Cunningham's
marks.
Halght of Nebraska, Nelson of
Oklahoma, and Hotchkiss of Kan
sas State will provide some fine
timber-topping races in the track
events. Halght came within one
tenth of a second of the confer
ence high hurdle record at the
Norman meet.

legend the main characters, who
are all monkeys, are given the
ability of human thought and
speech in their native haunts prior
to their evolution into the form of
present man. In this manner he
describes the monkey's as they
change gradually into the form of
humans.

Mississippi Valley Historical Re
view, and the Wisconsin History
Magazine. His article, entitled
Thomas Jefferson's University, re

ally, serve to coirect the general
view that the commonwealth of
Michigan founded the first state
university.
