(Tuesday, May 5. 1942 DAILY NEBRASKAN Huskers Prep For Missouri Tilt Saturday Nebraska Track Squad Finishes Second at Army Triangular by One Point Coach Ed Weir's track aggrega tion turned in a neat performance made up of many individual per formances of note as the Huskers finished second to host team, West Point in a triangular meet on Sat urday. The Husker team left New York for the home trip on Sunday eve ning after an overnight stay in the Metropolis of all. Meet Tigers Next. When the Scarlet squad returns their work will be cut out for them as they meet the University of Missouri on Saturday at Columbia. The Tigers bowed to the su perior forces of Notre Dame on the same day that the Huskers i. I : If " I SOB G1NN Lincoln Journal. were being entcrtaind at West Point by a 67-50 margin. The big noise of this meet was the two mile effort of Notre Dame's Ollie Hunter. Hunter Breaks Record. Hunter broke the tape after his long journey in 9:22.4 to break a two year old record held by Miz zolu's John Munski. Joe Shy, Mis souri hurdler, was the high point performer with 11 points to his credit at the end of the afternoon's activities. He won the 60 yard low hurdles and took second in the high and the 60 yard dash. The meet was scheduled for the outdoor track but due to weather conditions it had to be moved inside. The duel between Jim Delaney of Notre Dame and Elmer Aussie ker of Missouri which began at the past Drake Relays in which the latter took first in the shot put came to a final test. Delaney finally got his pellet out 50 feet 4', 2 inches which was plenty good to take first. Half Was Best Race. The close race of the afternoon was the half mile in which Rich ard Tupta of the Notre Dame squad nosed out Ray Rayl of the Tiger clan in 2:00.5. Owen Jog gerst won the 60 yard dash with Shy seeond for Missouri. The Saturday match between the Tigers and the Huskers will be both team's final warm-up for the important Big Six champion ships which will be held at Ne braska on the week end following.

Four Represent Faculty, Four of the seven voting mem bers will represent the faculty, two will be chosen from the mem bership of alumni association and one will be from the student membership of the N club. The faculty members will con sist of R. D. Scott, professor of English; John D. Clark, dean of the College of Business Adminis tration; T. T. Thompson, dean of student affairs and H. P. Davis, head of dairy husbandry depart ment of the college of agriculture. Representing the alumni as sociation will be George Holmes, presi dent of the First National bank of Lincoln and John Rid dell, York at torney. Dale Brad ley, Husker football star, will be the N man on the board. Some Are Holdover. Of the new board membership, Professor Scott, Dean Thompson, Holmes and Riddell are members of the existing system. L. E. Gun derson, finance secretary; L. F. S-aton, purchasing agent and John K.

The Huskers were second to the Cadets by one point with the Columbia team finishing third. . . . The final reckoning saw the Cadets first with 711 to Nebraska's 77 V2 and Columbia's seven tallies. . . . The meet was one of the best ever held at the Military Institute and it certainly boomed Nebraska stock on the east coast. OUT of the 15 cinder artists making the trip, 13 scoi-d im portant points while the other two were handicapped by injur; . . . Husker performers left two track records after their invasion and the two records will probably be on West Point books for some time to come. . . . Little Bobby Ginn finally hit the stride of which he is capable as he barreled through the half mile jaunt in the good time of 1:54.7 which is plenty good from a standing start. ... He also ran the mile in 4:22 which is keeping pretty good pace with the thought of another half mile staring him in the face. SURPRISE of the. afternoon to coach and team mates was the showing of the mile relay team conjposed of Bob Bowles, Al BiV. , Bill Smutz and anchored by Bill Conner. . . . This foursome got out onto the track and whipped off the mile in 3:21.7 breaking the Cadet track record. SOME of the other performances are worth noting. . . . Har old Hunt got back up to his 14 foot standard again as he won his event. . . . Howard Debus stole a large part of the show. ... He gathered a second in the pole vault with a 13 foot effort and what was the big surprise, he tossed the javelin out 204 feet 5 inches for second place. . . . His cast was the best of his career and out does by 30 feet anything that he has accomplished this season. . . Husky Ki Eisenhart took a surprise second in the discus as he fol lowed Edsel Wibbels in the platter event. . . . Red Littler returned to his tape-breaking form in the 100 and 220 dashes. . . . His times were not too fast but they were good enough to win. . . . Bill Con ner showed up the best of his career when he captured the quarter mile dash in 49.7. ... It was quite a meet and quite a trip for the Huskers and they should be cutting some fancy antics come the Big Six meet a week from this Friday and Saturday. SHUT OUT, three year old son of Equipoise, is ruling king of the Kentucky Derby after his driving finish in the annual classic hfld Saturday in Churchill Downs' palatial atmosphere. ... If you can call a grandstand with betting booths doing a two million dollar busi ness in one afternoon and with horses galore intermingled - palatial. . , Eddie Arcaro, tiny Italian jockey, picked the wrong horse for the aft ernoon. . . . After due deliberation Eddie chose to ride Devil Diver from the Whitney stables also with the $7,000 first place jockey money in mind. ... He could have ridden eitherhorse but finally picked Devil Diver. . . . The latter finished sixth and it was a chagrined Arcaro who wended his way to the jockey quarters following thf race. CONNIE WARMERDAM has done it again. ... He has add ed inches to his outdoor pole vault record. ... In the Pacific asso ciation track and field meet Saturday he cleared 15 feet 6 inches and barely knocked off the bar at 15-9. . . . His indoor mark stands at 15-74. athletics have been st-leded as the advisory associates.
