The showing of the Nebraska
track team Saturday against the
Missouri Tigers convinced even
the most die-hard Husker fans
1 that Coach Ed Weir's cinder spe
cialists will have to produce what
must be classed as a minor mir
acle if they hope to bring the
Big Six track and field cham
pionship to Lincoln a week from
Saturday.
f Missouri's 43 point margin 01
Ticiory was jusi as atciuve m
figures indicate. Only in the Jave
lin were the Huskers able to place
men in first and second spots. To
counterbalance that showing, the
Columbia invaders swept three
places in shot put and discus
events.
Afior Hnuintr to Missouri and
Colorado by top heavy margins
on successive weekends, the Ne
braska squad looms as capable of
producing four or five individual!
champions, but lacking the all
around strength and balance nec
essary for a Joop title.
Six places will be awarded in
r the conference fight, and the
teams able to pile up points in
lesser positions will be able to off
set a scattering of individual
champs. Ineligibility and injury
woes may alleviate by conference
meet time, but unless unsung por-
, formers blossom overnight the NU
chances will have to be centered
on snaring second place from Kan
sas and Oklahoma.
Dick Piderit's absence in the
weight events is especially aggre
vating. The husky Lincolnite was
steadily increasing his shot put
distance at the close of the indoor
season, and with Missouri's Ed
Quirk said to be out of the meet
because of an ankle injury, Pi
derit could give Kansas State's
Rolland Prather a fight for first
place.
Bill Moomey, Fritz Ware, Loyal
Hurlbert and Jim Martin will bol
ster the Scarlet scoring power, but
even with these runners on hand,
the Nebraska squad has its work
cut out if the Huskers hope to
capture the conference crown they
lost by such a narrow margin to
Kansas University last year.
An interesting sidelight of the
Husker-Bengal meet last Saturday
occurred following - the 440 yard
dash. Missouri's Dick Schmidt was
declared the winner.
Cshmiit wasted no time ap-
th officials and asking
that the decision be reversed to
include both himself and team
mate Dick Ault as the winners in
n (toad heat.
"He slowed up to wait for me
at the tape," Schmidt declared,
"and it's not right for me to be
. ho wirmpr." The Tieer auarter-
miler convinced the judges of the
finish, and the decision was
amended to give both Schmidt and
Ault a share of first place.
Word from the Indiana gridiron
v.co4niTQrtorc inHiratps that in a
search for a replacement for
Quarterback Ben Kaimoncu nou
sier mentor Bo McMillan has in
stalled Rex Grossman at tne sig
nil !illinr clnt
Raimondi's absence left the In
iimo cnnaii HpvniH of exnerienced
field generals, so the ponderous
fullback was shirted to quarter
tia1r.
The Hoosiers climaxed their
spring drills with an intra-squaa
game pitting the probable var
sity against a hand picked squad
which included promising fresh
men, ineligible varsity players and
cnrinfcline of former Hoosier
stars, including Vern Huffman,
Indiana quarterback wno was
consistently bothersome against
MebrasKa in prewar udya. .

Records Shattered
In Four IM Tests
BY LEE HARRIS
Despite a- stiff south wind that hindered runners all
the way, new records were posted in all of the four events
held Monday in the 1947 Intramaural Track Meet. leading
the relay teams were the Delta Upsilon runners who won
first place in the 440 Relay and took second in the Sprint
Medlay Relay.
The first record to fall in the
meet was the 440 yard Relay Re
cord held by ATO. The old re
cord of "48.2 was bettered by more
than a second as the DU runners
clipped off the distance in "46.8.
Not only did the DUs beat the
old record but teams from the
Field House, Sigma Nu, and Sigma
Alpha Mu also finished within the
old mark. In the other relay held
Monday, the P. E. Club finished
strong to cop honors and also post
a new record with the time of
4:04.3. The old mark held by the
Cornhusker Co-Op was 4:07. Fhil
Sprague the anchor man of the
winning team was content to run
second until the stretch and then
with the wind at his back he put
on a strong finish and came out
25 yards ahead of his nearest op
ponent. The Delta Upsilon was
second in the Sprint Medlay, and
Phi Delta Theta ranked third.
The Broad -Jump was won by
Barker of Sigma Nu with a
jump of 21.3 feet. This was an
other event in which last year's
record fell. The old mark be
longing to Jim Myers of Phi
Gamma Delta was 19:11. Rolland
Emmett of Beta Theta Pi came
second in the broad jump with
Bostwick of the Field House tak
ing third place honors.
The fourth event of the after
noon was the shot put and here
Rodney Cox of the Field House
broke all marks with a heave of
48' 11." The previous record was
held by Dick Schleiger at a dis
tance of 46' feet. Behind Cox
was Bill Kimball of Sigma Alpha
Epsilon who also bettered last
year's throw as he tossed the
12 pound weight out 47' 8Ya" a
third contender, Jake Pesek of
the Field House kept right in
stride by beating the old mark
with a toss of 46' 5V2."
Tomorrow will be the final
day for the meet. On the sched
ule is the pole vault, discus
throw, hurdles and the high
jump. The events will start on
time and au contestants are
urged to come early in order to
take proper warm-ups.
The first day's events were run
off in fine order with low means
directing the activity. If Mon
day's competition is an exam
ple of what is to come today, the
meet will be the best ever held
by the intramural department.
The meet will count in the Jack
Best race with fraternity totals
being added after the all inde.
Dendent contestants are taken
out.
