Stiff breezes -Saturday after noon prevented the recognition of three state records as North Platte barely nosed out Lincoln in the Class A championships 34 1-3 to 32 1-3 to win the top flight track and field championships for the first time. It took the final event, the 880 yard relay, to decide the class A champion. Points stood at 32 1-3 to 29 1-3 in favor of Lincoln until the relay, which the Platters won triumphantly in 1:31.0 setting a new state relay mark. The world high school relay mark stands at 1:28.2, held by Polytechnical High School of Los Angeles. The Class A division was a dual between Lincoln, defending champ, and North Platte, strong contender for many years. North Platte only gathered in 6 1-3 points from various field events while Lincoln managed to get only three points from track events, it was a grand battle of field strength against cinderpath prowess, with the Platters holding the advantage. Five Medals to Class A. Five Class A track and field prepsters left the meet proud pos sessors of gold medals, emblem matlc of achieving the best mark in the entire competitive field. Parks of North Platte, 1935 cen tury champion, retained his title by winning the 100 yard dash in fl.8 seconds, one-tenth second be hind the state record but disal lowed because of the wind. Bill Pfeiff of Lincoln heaved the 12 pound shot put 52 feet 2 inches to set a new record. Newton of North Platte made it three in a row by winning the 440 yard dash in 52.1 for the third time in three years. DeFruiter of Lexington was grand champion in the mile divi sion. His time for the four laps was 4:45.8. Taylor of Kearney ran roughshod over the hurdling field winning first in fifteen sec onds flat, a record time disal lowed because of the strong wind. Oodds of Falls City ran a nice race and won the gold medal in the 880 yard run in the good time of 2:01.8. Hurdle Race Shorter. Floyd Newton, North Platte's man of the hour, set a temporary record in the 200 yard low hurd les which were run for the first time in state competition. New ton's time was 23.2, established Friday without benefit of wind. Because the low hurdle distance has been shortened twenty yards, tht time set by Newton will be only pro tem. Complete Class A scoring list Is as follows: North Platte 34 1-3, Lincoln 82 1-8. Beatrice 14, Grand Island 11, Omaha Central 10, umana Tech 10, Hastings 8, Kearney 7, Falls City 6, Jackson 8, Omaha Benson 4. Scottsbluff S 1-8, Alliance 1.

Few Cancellations. "At no other time have we had so much co-operation on the part of the various fraternities, com mented the Greek potentates, and "there have been fewer cancella tions and more the will to play the game for the fun of it." Another boast of the department is the large mobilization of tal ented athletes, having no sport that was lacking of ability. Winners of the respective sports were: Touch football, Acacia; soccer, Phi Kappa Psi; water polo, Phi Kappa Psi; rifle shoot, Delta Upsilon; swimming meet, Sigma Alpha Epsilon; class A basketball, hi Gamma Delta; class B basket ball, Sigma Phi Epsilon; free throw contest, Alpha Tau Omega.

Two of the outstanding athletes of the entire program have been a pair of deft Acacia's, Dick Smith and Marvin Plock. Both have en tered their hand In all sports and in none have they failed to gain some recognition. Smith was widely hailed as the best on the touch ball lot and Plock was con ceded the title of king of the soft ball mound. The Ludwig boys and Hagelln. all Sig Alphs, did more than their bit for the house of violets. Rod Thomas of Sigma Nu was out standing all the way thru, being one of the individual high scorers in both track and basketball. The four winners have been con sistent in their scoring thru all of the slate, with the entire quar tet standing at the head of the class at semester ending. Touch football and soccer gave 1 1-2, Neligh 1, Valentine 1, Col lege View 1-2. Competition wan plenty stiff In clash C which KdKar came thru to win lt to 1H over the defending champion. Wllsnnvllle.

The rifle shoot found three frats within fractions of each other, but Avery's high score fetched the bacon to the D, U.'s Acquatics went generally to the Slg Alphs with their vast ar ray of splashers, but Phi Kappa Psi and Sigma Nu pulled surprises to squeeze into the finals. Basketball held more spectators interest than did any other ac tivity. The final game's being played as a prelim to the K. U. match pyramided enthusiasm no end, but the cancelling of such an affair dropped the bottom out just as arpidly. The finals were played between upset teams and it was partially due this that final statistics lie as they do. S. A. M. Defends Title. Hand ball was the only sport in which the 1935 team defended its title. This' was the S. A. M. clan. Softball was the determiner of a story book nature, with the two top teams playing in the finals of the last sport and with both star pitchers on the sidelines. Acacia's by final spurts were crowned ruler of the apple knockers and conse quently king of intramurals. The way they came in.

HUSKERS TROUNCE KANSAS AGS 72-58 Schulte's Cinder Men Clear Lttt Hurdle in Big Six Conference Championship Lane; NeWaakans Score Several Good Marks. Track Coach Henry F. "Pa" Schulte's Huskers success fully cleared their last hurdle in the Big Six conference chtm. pioiiship lane by outscoring Kansas State 72V2 to 58V2 the final home dual meet at Memorial stadium Friday afternoon. It was the fastest dual meet of the season and several good marks were made. Jake Jacobsen turned la one of the best performances of the aft ernoon. His winning time of 9.6 seconds in the century dash Is fast time for Olympic contenders and was the best 100 yard dash that "Jake" has dashed off in competi tion. He returned to win the 220 yard run which he covered In the fast time of 21.5 seconds. It took only one Jump for "Wild Hoss" Cardwell to cop the broad jump honors. "Cardy" took only one crack at the pit and his leap was taped out to be 24 feet H Inch. The versatile athlete from Seward also tied with Johnson f Kansas State at 5 feet SVi Inches in the high jump for first place. "Cardy" did a bit of surprising by beating Standley Haight, vet tim ber topper, in the 200 yard low hurdles in 24.2 seconds. He ran second to Jacobsen In the century dash and finished close behind the veteran sprinter. Sam Takes Shot. Sam Frances did not have any trouble in capturing first honors in the shot put, but his best mark was only 49 feet 5 Inches, a great deal less than he has been averag ing. "Sam'l" placed second to Fanning, Big Six discus champ, in the event, the winner's distance being 147 feet 5 inches. Francis's best mark was 146 feet 10 inches. Les Pankonin, stellar middle dis tance runner, was boxed in at the half way mark in the 440 by Wild cats Lutz and Nixon, the latter winning the event in 50.5 seconds after a game finish. "Pank" was a close second, and also picked up three points for the Schultemen by placing second in the furlong. Coach "Pa" schulte s distance runners put up a game fight, but the K-Aggies seemed to have the edge over the Cornhuskers. Bob Morris lost to Bill Wheelock in the mile, after having led the field for three and a half laps. Chet Beaver got a third place out of the 880 yard run, and Fred Matteson placed second in a 9:54.8 two mile race won by Ward of Kansas State. 'Sherm Vaults 13 Feet.
