Bill Edwards
cops two wins
for NU team
Ralph Worden takes
diving event; next
meet with K-State here
Nebraska's swim team lost its
second in a row as the Huskcrs
bowed to Colorado's tanksters, 48
36. The Buffaloes took six firsts
to three for the Huskcrs and built
up points in the other event to
win.
Sophomore Bill Edwards, former
Lincoln high star, who won the 50
yard free style against Minne
sota Saturday as the Huskers lost
53-30, won two of the Nebraskans'
firsts. He took the 50 yard event
in 25.3 seconds, and won the 100
yard free style in 57.6 seconds.
Vandepool copped the 220 and 440
free style for Colorado.
Ralph Worden, Big Six diving
champ, who won the only other
first against Minnesota, won the
other Huskcr victory again today
as he beat Ed McCluskcy of the
visitors.
Inexperienced.
Ha?elin's inexperienced tank
sters lack all around balance, and
are especially weak In the distance
events. Only three Huskers are
veterans; the other competitors
are sophomores.
Kansas State comes here Thurs
day afternoon, in what is at pres
ent the last scheduled home meet
of the season. Only three letter
men are back from the team
which lost two meets to the Hus
kers last year, but Coach C. S.
Moll is counting on several sopho
mores including oddJy-named Leo
Yeo, dashman, who set three in
tramural records at K-State three
years ago before dropping out of
school. The Huskcrs face K-State
at Manhattan in a return match
February 23.
