won the discus for Nebraska, was
high point man of the meet with
11 counters, as he took thirds in
the shot and javelin. 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.

Oklahoma pounds out
1 1 to 2 victory Friday,
after 5-3 win Thursday
Oklahoma's barnstorming base
ball squad pounded out 11 hits
and st ored as many runs as they
swamped the Huskers, Friday af
ternoon, by an 11-2 count, after
taking Thursday's game 5-3. The
two wins kept the Sooners within
mathematical range of the league
leading Missouri Tigers.
Up until the seventh inning, the
game was a pitcher's eluel between
"Rube" Denning ami Pope. Sooner
chucker. Oklahoma scored its first
run in the second frame when in
terference was ruled on Catcher
Moates. Riley, Sooner first
sackcr, came in from third on the
play.
Score tied.
Nebraska knotted the count fn
the fomth when Wilson reached
first on Shortstop Crosby's error.
He immediately stole second and
I third and romped home on Harris's
single to right. The Huskers'
other tally came in the seventh
inning whn Wilson led off with
a single, advanced to second on
Riley's error and scored when
Pitcher Pope thtvw Ray's roller
into right field.
The Sooners tallied twice in the
seventh on Catcher Baker's dis
puted double along the third base
line. In the eighth, Myer started
the inning with a single, but was
forced at second on Berryman's
roller. Culledge, Oklahoma sec
ond sacker, doubled, scoring Berry
man, and tallied on Riley's triple
to left. The Sooner third baseman
scampered home fin Lasater's
single to richt. Baker flie-d to
, Tegtmek-r to end the mmng
I .
ine sconnsr Defame a
riot in
the Oklahoma half of the ninth
inning:. Blackwell was hit by one
of Denir.R's slants, and Myer
reached first on Denning's wild
throw to Rubino. Three succes
sive hits, a double by Berry man,
a single by Guliedge and a home
run by Rightfit Ider Scheffler ac
counted for five more runs. La
sater's grouniler to Rubino ended
tthe rampage.
The Huskers stuffed the sacks
in their half of the eighth, but
lacked the punch to drive in the
badly needed runs. The threat
ended as Harris grounded to Myer.
