John Shirk, Oklahoma's defending discus champ was third. Knight comes thru in javelin upset "Bus" Knight came through with one of the mod's biet up sets as his 195' G" mark in the javelin preliminaries Friday stood to beat defending champion Dob Waldram of Missouri, who did not better the 10-1' 2" effort he made Friday. Sopnomore Lloyd Wright tied Eddie Tori bio of Oklahoma for first in the century in 10.1. Toiibio was announced as the winner, but the judges got together again and called it a tie. The chunky Sooner sprinter came back to win the 220 in :21.S, as the best Lyle Foy, double winner for Kansas last year, could do was a fourth in theJ hundred. Hackney fails to break record. Disappointment of the meet was the inability of Elmer Hackney to break the shot record. Hackney, bothered by a sore thumb, got his best toss. 51 4 Friday. Richard Hotchkiss of Kansas State won the high hurdles. Boo Sto'and of Kansas, who dethroned Karwin Dawson in the broad jump, tied Diek Schnacke of Iowa State in the hi"h jump. Neither succeeded on attempts at a new record after they had cleared 6' 3U." Don Bird. Kansas, did 13' 6 V to win the pole vault, but also missed as he tried for a new record. Oklahoma won the relay. Huskers pull away from Sooners. The Huskers, who grabbed 32 2-5 points on the field to 24i in track events, ran neck and neck with Oklahoma early in the meet, but Simmons' first and Dawson's second in the lows put Nebraska out in front to stay, and the discus returns, which gave the Huskers 11 more to 4 for Oklahoma, clinched the 1939 championship.
