Saturday the Scarlet team will play Kansas at Lawrence and on Monday the Huskers will be in Norman for a battle with the Oklahoma Sooners.

In refusing the offer Michalski said, "On the advice of medical authorities I have been ordered to take a lengthy rest to recuperate. There isn't a college in the coun try that I would like better to be associated with than Nebraska, but in order to be fair, I could not do justice to the university nor to the boys whom I would be coaching. "Put me down for future ref erence. Nebraska is the place where I would like to coach."

The scrappy battle staged by Andy Mannkovich in the 175 pound class topped the evening's bouts. Giving away 25 pounds to bis Wildcat opponent, Ray Ro mero, Marinkovich battled on even terms and would have been able to score points had he been able to handle his bigger foe. As it was, the Wildcat grappler pulled an escape in the last round. Rough Treatment. Big Mike DiBase gave Joe Blanchard a rough going over but could not pin the husky Wildcat heavyweight. Ineligibility knocked the regular Kansas State heavy, Ken lopping, out of the meet Kansas Stater Stan FanSher scored the only fall of the eve ning when he pinned Jack Tamai of Nebraska in 7:42 of their 145 pound duel.

At leasj three meet records will be in danger when the Kansas and Nebraska ftidoor track teams come to grips Saturday night at the Huskers east stadium layout beginning at 8 p. m. Records which may fall during the evening's running, jumping and throwing are the pole vault and high jump marks in field events and the 880-yard standard on the track. Nebraska performers appear to have the best chances of becoming new record holders in all three events. Don Cooper has bested the 13 feet, 44 inch pole vault record in every dual meet ap pearance this season and if he -an become accustomed to an aluminum pole he may shatter the old record. In the high jump, Husker Monte Kinder has come close to the existing mark of 6 feet 34 inches. Against Missouri last week the Cambridge kangaroo cleared 6 feet 3 inches to win the event. Hinchee Back. Should Bobby Ginn attempt to go all out in the 880 event the 1:59.8 record established last year by Jayhawk Hal Hinchee may go by the boards. The Madison mite has not turned on the heat in either the mile ar 880 this season, but may get stern competition in both races Saturday from a fleet of Kansas harriers, including Hinchee. Another current record holder will be on hand for the fireworks.
