Field event
power gives
NU victory
Nebraska's track team, supreme
In the Big Six, added another
feather to an already surfeited
victory hat, as the Huskers, led by
a strong field event crew, downed
Oklahoma A & M, Missouri Val
ley champions, 72-59.
Cold weather and a strong north
wind held down times on the track,
but the much-heralded mile race
between Forrest Efaw, the Aggies'
great distance man, and sopho
more Harold Brooks of the Husk
ers was the best of the day.
Efaw led most of the way until
Brooks foueht past him on the
homestretch, but the slight Okla
homa blond put on a last second
surge at the finish to nudge
Brooks by no more than two feet
in 4:22.7. Efaw came back later
in the afternoon to add a second
crown, as he won the two-mile in
9:57.2.
Win in field.
It was in the field, as was ex
pected, that Nebraska piled up its
margin of victory, as the Huskers
grabbed 26 of 27 possible points in
the shot, discus and javelin.
Ed Wibbcls, high point man of
the day, took the shot with a 48'
1" toss, and threw the discus 156'
2," to again break the old Big Six
. record of 155' 11, although he was
more than four feet behind his
new mark. He placed second to
Herb Grote in the javelin, which
the Omahan won at 198 feet.
Ray Trochsska and Henry Rohn
finished in that order behind Wib
bels in the discus; Wibbcls and
Bus Knight were second and third
in the javelin as the Aggie entries
scratched. Vike Francis was run-
nerup in the shot, where the Ok-
lahonians got their one point, as
Singleton grabbed off third.
Gene Littler won easy victories
in the 440 and 220, as he turned
his hundred yard duties over to
George AbeJ. Abel won the cen
tury in 10 flat, while Littler was
resting from a :50.4 breeze in the
quartermile. The Redhead beat
big Abel in a :22.6 two-twenty
Harold Hunt went 13 feet to
beat Stewart, Missouri Valley
champion in the pole vault, and
Bill Smutz beat Billy Munn, an
other Vallev titleholder in the 120
highs in :15.5.
Nebraska's ninth victory came
in the low huidles as big Bob Kah
ler jumped out ahead at the curve
and stayed there to bent Munn and
Smutz in :25.3.
Don Boydston, the Aggies' her
alded high jumper, won with a 5'
10" jump.
Herschel Burma, the Ags' Val
ley champion in the 440, stayed
out of that race, and entered the
hundred in which he could get but
third. He led the broad jumpers
with a 21' 'i" effort against a bad
wind and let teammate Pattillo
come in dhead of him in the 880.
Milfeld, also an Aggie, was third,
to give the Oklahoman's their only
sweep. Their relay team of Mor
gan, Burke, Metcalf and Burrus
finished far ahead of a Husker
combination in 3:28.3 after Ne
braska had cinched the meet.

Track meet notes: Don Boyds
ton actually won the higlt jump
with only one jump . . . the four
other entrants cleared 5-8, which
he didn't try . . . they missed at
5- 10, which he cleared . . . Judges
asked him how high he wanted the
bar moved up . . . "Oh, to about
6- 4 or 6-5 . . . they complied with
his wishes, but the lanky Aggie
missed tnree times at 6-4'i.
For any one wanting a good ex
hibition of power running, we'd
advise them to see George Abel
run . . . Abel, who was first in
the 100 and second in the 220,
seems to run with shoulders . . .
he might make a fair-to-middlin'
backfielder ... at least, nis iracK
performances show why he's such
a good running guard.
Re. spring: football:
Unofficial poll of Ivy league
schools showed all of them with
the exception of Yale to favor abo
lition of spring football, while a
writer in the U. C. L. A. Daily
Bruin says the Pacific Coast con
ference may cut out spring drills.
All of which helps give impetus
to dear old Stan Woodward's idea
that spring practice should be
abolished; but more important,
that the first to abolish it, because
of their "prestige" or such, should,
of course, be the Ivy boys.
Spring football as it is, seems
to be more or lens of a necessary
preventive evil a school can't af
ford to do without it in these days
of high pressure football if they
want a football team. It has gone,
in cases, to extreme of intercollegi
ate games in the spring.
Even we agree with the sancti

when Senile doubled down the
third brvse line, and came in a
moment later on Oscar Tegt
meier's bunt.
In the seventh, though, the
Husker defense fell apart, and the
Buffs got two runs on two errors
and a hit. From then on it was a
walkaway, as the Buffaloes scored
three in the eighth and two mora
in the ninth.
Searle scored again for the
Huskers in the seventh on Dow
Wilson's hit. The Husker hits were
scattered among five players,
while big Paul McClung got three
safeties for the winners.
Colorado scored four runs in the
tenth to nudge the Huskers 9-5
Friday, although the close battle
Nebraska put up was due some
what to the generosity of base
umpire Jack Eitel insofar as the
Huskers were concerned.
William Rainey Harper, first
president of the University of Chi
cago, liked to lie on the floor to
study wh n he was a student t
Yale.
