Weir Sends Squad Thru Drills
BY DICK D1LSAVER.
University Track Coach Ed Weir and his "few but
fightin' " trackssters began looking forward to the outdoor
track season his week as Old Mother Nature loosened up
and gave Cornhusker rurners a chance to limber up in
the warm sunshine.
But still there1 was a nail in. the
shoe of the truck sauad as the
number of men now in training
still doesn t come up to the size
squad that is needed to bring in
points enough to win meets. The
Weirmen, fans will remember, had
but seven men to put in competi
tion at the annual Big Six Indoor
Meet held at Kansas City a few
weeks ago, but still came thru
with an amazing record and
copped second in the tourney.
With a few supplementary sec
onds and thirds, Nebraska would
have appeared at the top of the
list with several points to spare.
First tryout for the outdoor
squad is scheduled April 27-28
when Nebraska will appear at the
Drake Relays. Weir figures on a
good showing from his lads though
too much hope can not be made
until more of a summary can be
made after all men have reported.
Weir has expressed desire of
another meet between now and
the time of the Drake event but
no arrangements for such a dual
or triangular test have ben made
at present.
Also among the UN coaches'
wishes is a meet May 5 with one
or two other teams. This meet
would put the Cornhusker squad
in fine shape for the conference
tourney which will be held two
weeks later.
No competition will be had for
the Scarlet and Cream trackmen
on May 12 for Nebraska state high
schools will be performing in the
stadium at that time at the an
nual state contest. Weir expects
his varsity squad to give an ex
hibition to the youngsters at that
time.
Heading the list of meets for
the Cornhuskers will be the an
nual Big Six Outdoor meet to be
held in Lincoln May 18-19.
Because or the shortened se
mester, other meets will probably
not be scheduled.
