Mc Merit gets
30 points; MU
loses 45-28
Oklahoma remains
in first place; Huskers
drop to last in Big Six
Nebraska's c a g e r a suffered
their sixth loss in a row Friday
night as Jim McNatt set a new
conference scoring record -of 30
points while the Sooners were
thumping the crippled Huskers at
Norman, 45-28.
Forty-seven hundred Sooner fans
saw McNatt, who played only 32
minutes, hit 14 of 21 shots at the
basket, and pot 2 of 3 free throws.
Coach Bruce Drake used 12
players as the Sooners won their
sixth consecutive Big Six triumph,
to put them in sole command of
first place at present, since Mis
souri has won one less game.
In last place.
The defeat dropped the Huskers
into the bottom of the conference
standings, as Iowa State won its
first conference game, beating
Kansas State. The Cyclones have
lost only four times, as against
the Huskers' six defeats.
The Sooners never were in dan
ger, stepping out to a 21-12 mar
gin at halftime, and increasing it
in the second period. McNatt was
withdrawn immediately after his
last basket, which enabled him to
break his own conference record
of 29 points, which he set last
year.
McNatt hot.
McNatt was practically the en
tire Sooner offense, scoring more
points than the Huskers himself.
Herb Scheffler got 7, and Marvin
Mesch, who started the game de
spite reports he might not play,
got two fielders.
Irv Yaffe was the leading Ne
braska scorer, tossing in three
fielders and four gift tosses for
ten points. Bud Tallman and Al
Randall scored six points apiece.
The Huskers' next trame is with
Kansas State here Tuesday night.

Sophs shine
in fracksfers'
first meet
Ed Weir's indoor track team,
manned by a crew of brilliant
newcomers, won all but two first
places as they walloped Kansas
last night 68'&-35a.
First it was young Harold
Brooks, Gothenburg soph, who
broke both the university indoor
and outdoor marks in the mile as
he passed and easily beat Ray
Harris of Kansas on the last lap
to win in 4:22.1. Fred Matteson
held the old Indoor mark of 4:30.8
set in 1937, and he and Willie
Andrews did 4:22.9 outdoors the
same year.
Littler wins.
Red Littler, the Mitchell comet,
also found the Improved Husker
track to his liking as he broke
Bob Simmons' old Nebraska in
door 440 record with a 50.1 quar
ter after winning the 60 yard dash
in 6.4. Simmons, whose old Ne
braska record was 50.4, had pre
viously run an exhibition quarter
in 49.5, tho.
His time was better than was
made in the Millrose quarter,
from which he had turned down
an invitation because of law
exams. Don Morris, Scottsbluff
freshman, who was given a 22
yard handicap against Simmons,
turned in 52.6.
Bill Smutz, lanky Pawnee City
sophomore, was the meet's high
point man with 18 markers as he
took both hurdle races and the
broad jump and placed second in
the high jump. His times were
7.8 in the 60 vard highs, and 7.1
in the lows. He got 22-1 Vi in the
broad jump.
Harold Hunt, North Platte, took
the pole vault at 12-8, and then
went on to clear 13-1, with room to
spare, but failed in his efforts to
make 13-5 H which would have set
a new Nebraska indoor record.
Dale Nannen, new man from
College View, took the high jump
at 5-10 in the absence of Big Six
champion Bob Stoland, who is tem
porarily ineligible at KU. The
other Husker soph to tally a first
place was Loup City's Bill Cook,
who won the 2-mile in 10:15.8.
Wibbels Wins.
Ed Wibbels, despite a sore wrist,
led the Huskers in a sweep of the
shot, as he got 48-2. Ray Prochas
ka and Henry Rohn followed him.
Kansas won its only individual
victory as Don Thompson came
thru in the half mile to win in
2:04.2. Bill Hargiss' relay team
with Scott, Foy, Eberhart and
Greene running, beat the Huskers
in the final event in. 3:31.6. The
Kansans, hampered by Inadequate
indoor track facilities at Law
rence, showed their lack of prac
tice. Piatt writes article
"S u p e r v i s ed Correspondence
Study" is the title of an article
by Earl T. Piatt of the Extension
division, which is published in the
current number of the Nebraska
Educational Journal.
