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

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.
Husker-Army Times.
The Husker-Army times can
give some indication of how they
will do against the Missourians.

NEBRASKA'S track forces did themselves up right back at
the West Point triangular on Saturday. . . . 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.
The Board of Intercollegiate
Athletics is primarily charged with
the job of constructing the inter
colleginte athletic program of the
university and will have supervis
ory control over the Husker ath
letic program which includes staff,
personnel, budget expenditures,
admission to athletic events, gate
receipts and general athletic pol
icies subject to the approval of
the board of regents.
Hoard members will elect a
president, vice presi.ii-nt and sec
retary from either voting or as
sociate members. Meetings are to
be held monthly.
The place of cotton in the econ
omy of Texas will be subject for
an intensive study conducted by
