closest competitors.
Nebraska finished on top
with 47 points. Other finish
ers and total points include
Missouri 35, Kansas 34,
Colorado 32, Oklahoma
State 24, Oklahoma 17, Iowa
State 10 and Kansas State 8.
The four Scarlet victories
came on the track. Co-captain
Fred Wilke started the meet
by winning the 60-yard high
hurdles in the smashing time
of :07.3, just one-tenth of a
second off the Big Eight rec
ord. Ray Knaub was NU's sec
ond winner when he won the
60-yard low hurdles in :06.3.
He was followed closely by
teammate Wilke for second.
Co-captain Mike Fleming
beat Pat McNeal of Kansas
State in the mile with a 4:11.7
clocking. The Husker senior
finished ahead of the Wildcat
by several yards. For his ef
fort Fleming Was awarded the
Glenn (Cunningham Trophy by
the great star himself. Team
mate Ray Stevens copped
fourth for Nebraska. -
The fourth and final victory
came in the mile relay. Ne
braska ran in the third heat
and had to beat the 3:21.9
time turned in by Kansas in
the first heat.
The Huskers really turned
on the steam witn the quar
tet of Knaub, Dick Strand,
Bill Kenny and Gil Gebo.
Their mark was 3:21.3 and
ensured them the gold medal.
The high jump was the
single most outstanding event
in the meet. Leander Durley,
sophomore whiz from Colo
rado, cleared the bar at 6
10 for a new Big Eight
record. The old mark was 6
7 set by Bob Lang of Mis
souri in 1956. After cinching
his win, Durley tried for 7-0
but missed on all three tries.
In the 60-yard dash Rickey
Beldner of Missouri won with
a :06.3 mark. Nebraska's
Kent McCloughan finished a
strong second and Knaub

A mix-up on the part of the
officials made for a slow time
in the 600-yard run. Greg
Pelster of Missouri won with
a 1:13.2 with Nebraska's Gil
Gebo and Bill Kenny finish
ing second and third, respect
ively. The officials failed to
fire the gun on the final lap
which lets the athletes know
this is the time to make their
break.
Charles Strong of Oklahoma
State won the 440-yard dash
with a sparkling :49.5. Mor
gan Langston of Iowa State
took second and Bill Stod
dart of Kansas was third.
Nebraska had no entries.
Kansas distance man Har

mile run victory for the Jay
hawks after coming on strong
on the final lap to trounce
Missouri's Roy Bryant who
lead most of the way. Had
ley's time was clocked at
9:25.2. Husker Mauro Altizio
finished fifth in the event.
Kirk Hagen of Kansas suc
cessfully defended his title in
the 1000-yard run by touring
the oval in 2:12.4. He edged
out Bob Griffith of Colorado
who was second and John
Portee of Nebraska who fin
ished a strong third.
In the 880-yard run, it was
Pelster from Missouri who
came through with the vic
tory in 1:55.1. This gave the
Tiger runner a double vic
tory. Ted Riesinger of Kan
sas finished second and Jim
Wendt and Stevens, both of
Nebraska took fourth and
fifth places.
Of Nebraska's total
47 points, 46 of them came

with a leap of 24-6.

Nebraska varsity swimmers
scored a moral victory at the
Coliseum pool Saturday aft
ernoon as they tuned up for
the Big Eight Championships
to be held at Lincoln High
March 7-9.
Due to a technicality the
Huskers lost to Iowa State
who last week upset the Big
Eight Champions, Oklahoma,
50-45. The Huskers lost to
Iowa State on a disqualifica
tion charge, 52-43.
The Husker swimmers were
behind going into the final
race, the 400-yard freestyle
relay, 43-45. A win would have
meant an upset victory for the
squad. The race was nip and
tuck throughout but in the end
anchor man, Phil Swaim,
touched out ISU swimmer
Dan McQuillen.
But the squad forgot that
KU was still swimming as
they jumped into the water
before- KU finished swim
ming the race. In the official
rules book there is a rule
stating that no one can enter
the pool until the race is com
pleted by all swimmers com-

pair traded strokes through
out the race but Bauers won
the race, setting the new
varsity record in the proced

timed in 2:24.0.
The 100-yard freestyle

As Bush Bows Out
Coach Jerry Bush saw his
home finale as a Husker men
tor drift from victory to de
feat in a matter of minutes
Saturday night as iue Okla
homa Sooners rallied to top
Nebraska, 77 to 75.
The Huskers, riding on the
crest of a powerful first half
performance, kept the home
crowd smiling with a thirteen
point lead and 11:43 to play
in the second half. With
only 6:50 left, Daryl Petsch
and Jerry Spears contribu
ted a pair of baskets apiece
to maintain the lead at 71 to
59.
Then the series of Scarlet
errors began. Oklahoma capi
talized by scoring 18 points
in the six-plus minutes while
Nebraska could muster only
four. Speedy Eddie Evans led
the Sooner surge with six im
portant goals and ballhawk
ing afl over the court.
Big JHarvey Chaffin was the
hero, though, as he converted
a stolen ball into the go-ahead
basket for the visitors mak
ing it 73 to 72 with 1:46 show
ing on the Coliseum clock.
Jim Gatewood then drew a
foul from Husker Charlie
Jones and converted both
charity shots to put victory
out of Nebraska's reach.
GlartnS"3errors popped up all
over. Neil Nannen, pushed up
a hasty shot that barely made
the rim; Ivan Grape muffed
a vital lay-up with the Hus
kers ahead by three; Spears
missed a jump shot from
five feet out when Nebraska
trailed by one. j
In the first half, Nannen
led the Scarlet with 12 points
and Ivan Grape covered ,
the boards well against his !
taller opponents.
The game marked the last j
appearance for three seniors,
Ivan Grupe, Jim Huge, and
Jan Wall. Coach Bush also
put in his last night on the
Cpliseum floor.
Nebraska will finish the
1963 season on the road with
games against Colorado on
Monday and Missouri on
Saturday.

It's now a fact: every Ford-built car In f63 has self-adjusting brakes
"Give us a brake," Ford Motor Company engineers were told, "that
will automatically compensate for lining wear whenever an adjustment
is needed and make ii work for the entire life of the iining."'
Tough assignment but not insurmountable. Today, not only does
every Ford-built car boast self-adjusting brakes (Falcon extra-duty
bus-type wagons excluded), but the design is so excellent that adjust
ments can be made more precisely than by hand.
This Ford-pioneered concept is not complex. Key to it is a simple
mechanism which automatically maintains proper clearance between
brake drum and tining. -
Self -adjustment takes place when'the brakes re applied while backing
up. "This adjustment normally occurs but once in several hundred
miles of driving. The brake pedal stays up, providing full pedal
reserve for braking.
Another assignment completed and another example of how Ford
