Tiger Balance Gains
Big 7 Track Nod
University of Missouri's supeb
ly balanced team is generally
conceded its second straight Big
Seven conference outdoor track
and field championship hereFri
day and Saturday afternoons.
But the scramble for second
place promises to be more hotly
contested than a South American
presidential election.
The Universities of Kansas,
Nebraska and Oklahoma can each
amass sufficient points to carry
away runner-up honors.
THE OTHER THREE confer
ence schools, Colorado, Iowa
State and Kansas State, altho not
possessing the strength to finish
second, will be a factor in deter
mining who winds up behind
Mizzou.
Except for the Tigers who will
be shooting for the conference
team point total of 158 116 they
set last year, the remaining six
schools will chop up the rest of
the points among themselves.
A break down of the potential
power of the competing teams is
as follows:
MISSOURI The Tigers are top heavy
In all events except the javelin where
thev failed to acjre in 147. :adlll "Bud"
Gaftiser. Rimer Klein. Gil Phillip. Dick
Schmidt. Dick Ault and Bob Bchuater
are all top night a printer! In the 100-,
220- and 440-yard dashes.
Schuster haa clicked off the 440 In
:48.3 seconds the best time in the con
ference to date. Phillips has run the
220 in 21.3 seconds. "Bud" Gartiser haa
a 23-second flight of low hurdles and
waa clocked in 14. S Seconds for the higha
which are the beat times for these cventa
in the Bin Seven this spring.
In the half-mile, mile and two mile
racea. the Tigers have leaders' in Bob
Bos worth. Bill Chronlster, Charles Lan
caater and Jean Madden. Bosworth haa
done the ftso in 1 :.r6 2 while he and
Chronlster have 4:29.4 limine in the mile.
Missouri' 'initiation ia not limited to
the tract. It has Ben Teel. a 23 fool
plus broad iumiier. Mel Srirehaei and Kd
Quirk in the shot put and discus, and
Justin Knapp who has pule vaulted 13
feet.
NEBRASKA One or the heat dash
quartets In the Big Seven is the Corn-4
busker's Dick Hutton. Harry Meginnis,
Alan Thompson and Loyal Hurlhert. Hut
ton's 8.7 second century and Meginnis'
21 second furlong are stellar, perform
ances this spring.
The Huskers might surprise In the racea
and field events. Bob Berkshire will
carry the hurdle burden while Meglnpia
will defend hia Jump title.
Other possible field points: Monte Kin
der, high jump, Ray Magsamen, javelin.
Don Cooper, pole vault ; Dick Piderit,
shot put, and Wayne fieca. discus.

154 feet-6'4 inches in the discus). Rod

broad Jump and 6 feel-2" Inches in the
high jump).
Art Hildenhrand and Pave VanHaver

COLORADO The Buffs are only a
shadow of last year s great team. Ex

they have no over-all strength.
