Scarlet Leave
For Big Six
Indoor Meet
A seven man track squad leaves
for Kansas City at 4:15 this after
noon to carry Nebraska colors in
the annual Big: Six indoor track
championships there tomorrow.
With Buzz Hollins, shotput win
ner in last Saturday's triangular
meet with K. U. and Kansas State,
slated to remain in Lincoln to per
form with the UN cage squad
against Oklahoma Saturday night,
Husker prospects take a decided
tumble. The seven man Husker
squad, with Hollins lost, will stand
little chance in the indoor car
nical, according to Coach Ed Weir.
Kratz Will Carry Load.
"There's really no way to dope
the meet," said Weir before the
squad's Thursday afternoon work
out. "Iowa State and Oklahoma
are both unknown quantities and
may be missing the services of
some of their naval trainees who
are on furlough this week. One
thing is certain, tho,' 'added Ed.
"Our strength is too limited for
us to expect to win Saturday."
Named to make the trip are Ed
Smith, Bob Smith, Dean Kratz,
Frank Mech, Norval Barker, Dick
Miller and Dick Petty. Kratz,
double winner in the 440 and the
880 in last Saturday's meet, is
expected to carry the burden of
Husker scoring at Kansas City.
Husker Court
Squad Meets
Sooners Here
Nebraska's Huskers tangle with
the Sooners of Oklahoma at the
coliseum tomorrow night at 8 in
their last home appearance of the
season.
The Huskers will be seeking
their second conference win, while
Bruce Drake's Oklahomans need
a win over the Scarlet to stay in
the Big Six title chase. Nebraska
gave the Sooners a real scare be
fore bowing at Norman early last
month, and Coach Ad Lewandow
ski feels that his charges will offer
O.U. another tough battle to
morrow. With Harry Johnston lost to the
armed forces, Lewandowski will
be able to field only a nine man
squad. After a season's campaign
ing, only men left on the squad
are Al Artman, Tom Dworak.
