ace peveleps foe Secoctdl Place Sn B-R
By Dob Miller " j
That was quite some trip that the Husker track team took into
strike back to West Point and surrounding territory last weekend...
It was the first time some of the Husker performers had ever been
back to New York and up to the Point and for them, it was impres
sive... Biff Jones and family were on hand to welcome the 15 cinder
men along with coaches Ed Wier and Glenn Presnell who went along
as guiding hands.
AFTER leaving from the Husker institution last Thursday,
the team rolled Into the grounds at West Point on the Hudson riyer
in time for the evening meal... After that had been put out of the
way, there was a tour of the military instituion and then the 15
were bedded down in the post barracks.. .The next morning brought
with it a more extensive tour of the layout and then in the after
noon was the meet... At 7:30 in the evening, the entire group left
from Weehawken for a ferry ride to the West 42nd street pier,
where a bus took them to the Paramount hotel, the mecca of their
remaining jaunts.
WHILE in New York they took in the Lucky Strike program
and rode a sightseeing bus thruout the town... On Sunday afternoon
most of the group took in the major league game between the Yan
kees and White Sox which provided a good climax to the trip... They
even had an excursion to the top of the RCA building, seventy stories
above the city and made a side invasion of the Rainbow room, which
was closed since it was Sunday.
ON the return trip, the train into Chicago was a quarter of an
hour late, making the railway officials hold the train for Lincoln,
but the Huskers took it in fine style and got home Tuesday morn
ing... For some of the seniors the trip was a little monotonous since
they had journey back on track trips into New York, but for some
of the others it was a new experience... Ki Eisenhart, weight man,
"couldn't see much difference between New York and my home
town."... He hails from Culbertson, Neb.
ALL of the group picked the showing of the mile relay team as
the best single accomplishment of the trip... They were unanimous
in voicing approval of the quarter mile anchor run by Bill Conner in
which" he took the baton 20-25 feet behind the first place man and
tossed off a quarter that was close to the 48 second mark to win by
a yard or so. . .Don Morris did not compete back there due to a pulled
ligament sustained in the Drake relays'

AMES, la., May 6. Iowa State
college, seeking its third straight
outdoor dual meet victory of the
year, will meet stern opposition
from the University of Kansas
track team Saturday. On paper
the meet shapes up as the closest
of the year for the Cyclones.
Bill Hargiss, coach of the invad
ing Jayhawks, has three certain
first place winners in Milo Far
netti, the best javelin thrower in
the Big Six; Don Pollom, sprinter
and hurdler, and Don Ettinger,
high juniper.
Farnetti Leads Big Six.
Farnetti has thrown the javelin
19S feet so far this year to top tre
best Cyclone throw by George Gast
by some 17 feet. Pollom has run
the 100 in :09.9 and the low hur
dies in :24.5, better than anything
turned in by Iowa State. Ettinger
has high jumped over six feet and
has cleared 22 feet in the broad
jump.
For the first time this year Paul
Darling, all-around star for Iowa
State, will have some competition
in the field of versatility, Charlie
Black, sophomore star of the bas
ketball team, will be entered in the
pole vault, the discus, the javelin,
broad jump and shotput and is
rated strong in every event.
Several other basketball stars
have been drafted for track duty
by Hargiss, including Ettinger,
and Evans, the latter a sprinter.
So far this year the Cyclones
have defeated Grinm-11 college by
fsG'i to 35'i, and Drake univer
sity, 73 to 58.
Betas Cop Jack Best Title
But Second Spot Is Toss-up
By Bob Miller.
Beta Theta Pi is 1942 fraternity intramural Jack Best
champion.
The Betas won the runner-up spot in Softball and with it
the much sought-for trophy symbolical of general all around ex.
cellence in intramural sports, without tennis and golf included
If the Betas had not been awarded the track trophy this
year, they would haVte been eligible for another award. After
the track meet was over the Betas were in the runnerup posi
tion but an ineligibility on the Alpha Tau Omega first place
team took away 20 points from the ATO total and gave the
Beta squad the championship.
Betas Came Close.
Had the ATO's not been ruled ineligible the Beta group
could have claimed the intramural championship and also the
trophy for winning the most points and not winning a major
championship.
So much for the first place. The real fight is still present
for the runner-up trophy with tennis and golf results not com
putcd as yet.
The Phi Gamma Delta team is now resting in second with a
H point lead over third place Del-

ta Upsilon but there is nothing
that the Phi Gams can do now but
wait.
The DU's are in the quarter
finals of the tennis fight and
should they win the championship
plus the points they picked up in
golf they would be able to garner
the second place trophy.
Both tennis and golf will be
played off in the next four or five
days if the weather permits. So
far this week, the courts and links
have been too wet for any play.
In the golf race, the Betas and
the Sigma Alpha Epsilon swing
ers are the finalists with the Sig
ma Nu's slated to meet Phi Delta
Theta for the consolation prizel
Thi3 consolation prize is im
portant also because the Phi Delta
and Sigma Nus along with the
Kappa Sigma boys are neck and
neck in the battle for the trophy
awarded to the team scoring the
most points but failing to land a
major championship. Sigma Phi
Epsilon won the title last year as
Delta Upsilon carried the Jack
Best trophy home for a year's
stay.
In the tennis playoffs, the Betas
are in again. They must play the
Alpha Taus for a final berth to
sec who will meet the winner of
the other semifinal tilt. The DU's
will play the winner of the Delta
Tau Delta-Sigma Alpha Nu con
test. The last contest was a split
and it will take a play-off to find
the fourth semifinal winner.
The Betas and ATO's have a.
tie to play off, having already
split their matches in the pre
scribed number of games.
"We have had good spirit and
a lot of fight this year," com
mented Tom Brogan, assistant in
tramural director, "and we want a
lot more of it next year."
There were 21 fraternities tak
ing part in I-M activities this year
and the interest shown was evi
denced by the high percentage of
members taking part in the well
developed all sports program.
Well, that is the way it stands
now. The Betas in the finals of
golf and the semifinals of tennis
have already won the 1942 I-M
title and the big race is for the
second place honors.
The Phi Gams have the inside
track with a lead of 44 points but
the DU's by winning tennis, a 50
point minor sport, and rolling up
some extra points in the earlier
brackets of the golf tourney could
manage to win the desired prize.
At any rate the I-M season is
about over for another year and
the heads of all those concerned
can rest easy with the thought of
a good job well done.
