Marks of the Lincoln meet as compared with those at Columbia show that the Hiisker's and Jay- hawks made better marks in seven of 12 events. Nebraska did better than Mis souri in six of ten events, with Iowa State and Kansas State left out. Better in highs. Missouri, expected to be the Huskers' main threat in the in door meet at Kansas City, March 9, was better than the Huskers in the high hurdles, the broad jump, the two mile, and the half mile. The Huskers, on the other hand, excelled the Tigers in the 60, the mile, the 440, the 60 yard lows, the shot put and pole vault Compara tive marks were not obtainable on the relay or high jump, as neither team won either event in its re spective dual meet. Outstanding fete of the Husk ers was Harold Brooks' time in the mile which bettered that of Lone some John Munski. Brooks had 4:22.1; Munski, 5:25.3.

Forward Joe Robertson is out because of an ankle injury, and Ernie Miller, who had recovered from a broken jaw, sprained an ankle. Fitz still out. Don Fitz will not play against the Wildcats, altho Coach W. H. Browne has hopes that the tall guard will be able to play when the Huskers invade Iowa State this week end. Bud Tallman, game captain, will start at one forward, with Irv Yaffe, who scored ten points against the Sooners, opposite him, in all probability, as Harry Pit caithley, who has recovered from his back injury, is in a slump. Tall Al Randall at center, and sophomores Sid Held and Hart mann Goetze at guards will com plete the Husekrs' starting lineup. Forwards listed. Dan Horacek and Chris Lang- vardt, who have scored 48 and 43 points respectively ii; seven games, will open for Kansas State at for wards. Wilbur Reed is slated to replace Reid at center, while Nor ris Holstrom and Melvin Seelye are the guards. Reserve strength of the K-State team is inexperienced, as the sec ond Wildcat team is composed of forwards Garrett and Woo If, cen ter Checksfield, and guards Guer rant and Graham, all who have seen but a few minutes of confer ence competition.
