Bob Ginn clips
off 4:20.9 mile
in warmup run
Here is welcome news for Corn
husker track enthusiasts. Bob
Ginn, diminutive sophomore dis
tance star from Madison, unoffi
cially set both a new indoor and
outdoor mark in the mile run last
Saturday afternoon on the track
underneath the East Stadium.
Ginn was running against
squad competition for the first
half mile but from there on he
set his own pace. His record
breaking race was run in 4:20.9
and altho it is unofficial it is
accurate enough to be consider
ed. His mark will not be placed
in the record books since the
race was not against another
school.
His time is under Harold
Brook's indoor record of 4:22.1
and well under the outdoor mark
of 4:22.9 held by Wilson Andrews
and Mattison.
The news is very encourag
ing since Husker strength in
the mile was diminished when
Harold Brooks went off to Na
tional Guard camp and he was
the outstanding miler at that
time. Ginn is Big Six champion
in the two mile run which he
won this fall in Columbia, Mo.

Bowling went into a pre-week-end
slump Friday as scores in gen
eral were lower than usual. Pat
Cole, DG, Maryellen Robinson,
Gamma Phi, and Mary Louise
Simpson and Ruthie Fox, Pi Phis,
were the only ones to score over
150. Ruthie's 156 was high giving
her a three-game average of 147
which is mighty nice!
The Pi Phi first team's aver
age for round robin tournament
is 613 which gives them a slight
edge over the Alpha Oils' aver
age of 606. Last Thursday, how
ever, the Alpha Chis bowled 671,
top team score of the tourna
ment. After a mixup in teams was
straightened out, Theta 3 defeated
DDD 2 instead of vice versa as
reported. Results of games Fri
day were AXO 1 over Sigma Kap
pa and Phi Mu over DDD 1. AXO
2, Gamma Phi 1, Theta 2, Pi Phi
1, and DG 2 won by default.

Reed to head bowling and Becky
Wait to head ping pong.
In the first round of the singles
ping pong tournament Ellen Wil
kens, KD 2, won by default from
