As the Nebraska trackmen ready

themselves with dope sheets and
crystal balls in an attempt to

power to make Saturday evening
an unpleasant time for the Cy

Whether or not the Iluskers can
regain the throne thev ncrunipd
with regularity in prewar days is
a. Dig question in the minds of all
Nebraskans. Coach Ed Weir's cin-
dermen have nosted dual mrri

and the dog-eat-dog affair that

tition in their favorite events,,
many performers good enough
to win dual meet points are pushed
out of the running.
Nebraska hopes received a blow
last Saturday when Ralph King,
lanky hurdler, pulled a muscle as
he raced toward the tape in the
low hurdle event. If King is able
to compete at all, he will definitely
be below par. Since Norval Bark
er, conference hurdler ruler last
year, has not flashed his former
style, the Huskers may iose out in
the top spots in both hurdles races.
Jon Sharp of Oklahoma and Chase
of Missouri both trimmed the Au
rora timber-topper by decisive
margins in dual meet competition,
and Barker has failed to come
close to his times of last year's sea
son. Another blow to the Scarlet
cause was Dean Kratz's unexpect
ed loss in the 880 last week. The
king of the Big Six middle dis
tance performers ran second to
Hal Hinchee, Kansas university,
who raced the half-mile in 1:59.8
in Saturday's triangular meet.

this performance at Kansas City,
Kratz will have a tough time re
taining possession of the Bill Lyda
trophy. This trophy is a memo
rial award in honor of Lyda, the
former Oklahoma university 880
star who was killed in the war.
Kratz has two legs toward per
manent possession of the award,
and needs to win this year to re
tire the trophy.
Hinchee's success was the result
of a blistering finishing kick. The
Jayhawk began the season as a
two miler, but now has established
himself as a definite threat in the
half mile. According to teammates,
Hal relies on his finishing kick to
carry him through after he holds
back in the opening lap.
This was evidenced in Satur
day's meet, when Hinchee took the
lead from Kratz midway in the
second lap on the Husker indoor
track and raced away from the
Sidney runner in home stretch.
