Bob Ginn, diminutive sophomore dis tance star from Madison, unoffi cially set both a new indoor and outdoor mark in the mile run last Saturday afternoon on the track underneath the East Stadium. Ginn was running against squad competition for the first half mile but from there on he set his own pace. His record breaking race was run in 4:20.9 and altho it is unofficial it is accurate enough to be consider ed. His mark will not be placed in the record books since the race was not against another school. His time is under Harold Brook's indoor record of 4:22.1 and well under the outdoor mark of 4:22.9 held by Wilson Andrews and Mattison. The news is very encourag ing since Husker strength in the mile was diminished when Harold Brooks went off to Na tional Guard camp and he was the outstanding miler at that time. Ginn is Big Six champion in the two mile run which he won this fall in Columbia, Mo.
