UN Outpoints Jayhawks,
Wins First Indoor Meet
By Don J. Baker.
In the opening meet of the season, the Nebraska Corn
huskers, sparked by Dean Kratz and Norval Barker, outran
the Kansas Jayhawkers, 51 to 42. Coach Kanehl of KU, not
being a superstitious man, brought 13 men from Lawrence;
i 1 A. .T A. I J r- !
cigat riavy trainees ana live civilians.
In 4 Via flfft AVAnt 4 Via miln
KU was represented by Thomas
and Hudson, two boys who had
never before run a competitive
anile. At the start, Hudson took
the lead and managed to stay
well ahead of Don Morrison for
the first six laps. However, as
they entered the seventh and
final one, Morrison surged ahead
and crossed the finish several
yards in front of Hudson.
Krstz Takes Three Firsts.
In the 60 yard dash, Dean Kratz
f Nebraska turned in one of his
three first places, with Danne
berg of Kansas second.
It was Kratz again in the 440
yard dash, stepping it off in 55
seconds even. Johnny Jackson of
the Jayhawks was a close sec
ond. The 60 yard high hurdles were
second nature to Norval Baiker,
who cleared the sticks in 7.9 sec
onds. KU's N. Jackson ran sec
ond. Dick Miller of the Cornhuskers,
cleared 12 feet 7 inches in the
pole vault, which was one better
than Harvey Morrow of Kansas
could do.
In the high jump, Jim Sarcent
of Lawrence, rolled neatly over
the crossbar for a 5 foot 8 and
one-nan incn leap. inis. sur
passed Miller's attempt by one
and a quarter inches.
The lads from Lawrence took
the broad jump with little trouble,
garnering 8 points with Lynn
Leigh's 20 foot leap and Ken Dan
neberg's second place jump of 19
feet 5 inches. Cornhusker Bob
Shulte's attempt netted only IS
feet 3 inches, just 2 under Dan
neberg's.
UNs Buzz Hollins tossed the
shot 43 feet 2 inches for a first,
and Dick Pederit's heave measured
41 feet, IV2 inch for second place.
It was apparent that it wat
Jiggs Whitmore's 2 mile run from
the starting gun. He took the lead
immediately and crossed the fin
ish line well ahead of KU's
Thomas.
Norval Barker, high and low
hurdle specialist, again copped a
first place in the lows, with N.
Jackson of KU second. Barker's
time in the low sticks was 7.2
seconds.
Dean Kratz turned in his third
and final first place of the day
by defeating Hamilton of Kansas
in the half mile.
In the mile relay, Kansas took
the lead at the start as Johnny
Jackson pulled ahead of Don Mor
rison. The Cornhuskers couldn't
catch Johnny Stites, Den Danne
berg or Lynn Leigh, even though
Jiggs Whitmore, Don Morrison,
Norval Barker, and Dean Kratz
were never dangerously labbing
behind their man. Jayhawker
Leigh finished first in the relay,
just a few feet ahead of Nebras
ka's Kratz, who couldn't quite
close the gap.
Coach Ed Wclr was very well
satisfied with the showing demon
strated by the squad, and it must
be restated that Nebraska in
track, as in all other sports, suf
fers extensively from the lack of
personnel, and from this stand
point they should be congratulated

Mizzou Tiger
Drops Huskers
BY CHUCK PETERSON.
The rejuvenated Nebraska
Cornhuskers lost another close
one in their series of long losses.
The Huskers showed some siffns
of improvement and proved that
tne coaching of the Wings cap
win, .nearn, naa done some
good.
The Huskers started out like a
ball of fire, but the gradual and
steady set shots of Mickelson and
Wear soon proved to be too much
for Lew s boys.
J. he boys from UN stretched
into an 18 to 11 lead midwav in
the first half only to be overtaken
by the one hand set and pivot ol
Weir and Bauer. Weir poured in
two set shots from the center of
the free shot circle. Bauer then
counted with two one handed
pivots. Peterson's free throw and
Koenig's one hander moved the
score up to 25 to 21 at the half.
A bucket apiece dropped in bv
feterson, fctrahn, and Hollins
brought Nebraska to within two
points of Missouri which was all
the closer they got the entire sec
ond half. Three dribble-ins by
Kurash, Missouri guard, raised
the score to 37 to 31. From that
point on until there were only
three minutes left in the last
half, a steady basket duel be
tween Heinsohn of Missouri and
Peterson and Hahn of Nebraska
brought the score to 43 to 40.
Then Mizzou flipped in two quick
shots and brought their scoring to
an end.
Nebraska's only score after that
was a free throw by tall Art
Peterson.
High scorer for the evening
was Peterson with 20 points.
The two high men for Missouri
were Mikelson and Weir with 11
points.
