Frosh Ciiidermen to Test
.Varsity Squad Thursday
BY BOB rilELPS.
Freshmen cindermen will test
the varsity squad Thursday eve
ning at 7 p. m. in the indoor track,
according to Ed Weir, veteran
track mentor. Doors will open at
7 p. m. and everyone is invited to
attend.
This meet will give the varsity
squad a little competition in
preparation for the Texas Relays
to be held April 1 and 2 at Aus
tin, Texas. Following that the
Huskers travel to Boulder for a
dual with Colorado. Due to the
early date, the Colorado meet may
be indoors, depending upon' the
weather.
THE FIRST HOME meet will
be against Kansas, April 16. The
meet may be moved to the 15th
because of spring vacation.
The meet will be complete ex
cept for the two-mile. The Husk
er two-milers, Esraf Aydin and
John Morrison, will go along with
Bill Mountford in the mile run.
The frosh will probably pick
up their best points in the half
mile and tne high jump. Jacobs,
Robinson and Yelkin lead the
frosh middle-distance men. Ja
cobs has had a timing of 2:01.7,
which is very good for indoors.
THE BEST individual event
will probably be the pole vault.
Don Cooper will vault for the
frosh against Big Seven champ
Lcn Kehl. 'Cooper set the school
indoor record last year with a 14
foot 2' inch endeavor. He also
won the Texas Relays with 13
feet, 9 inches. Kehl won the con
ference event in Kansas City with
a 13 foot, 11 inch vault.
Alexander will be the top frosh
sprinter in the meet. He will go
against the conference's three
fastest men in Meginnis, Hutton
and Thompson.
In the high jump, the frosh
will bank on Downey and Rice for
points. They will go against Orv
Glass and Dick Mcissner. Meiss
rier, a sophomore who just came
out this year, has been ovfr six
feet several times in practice and
will help the Huskers when the
outdoor meets roll around.'
Weir feels that the team needs
to be a little more rounded yet.
The squad is still weak in the field
events. Loss of 'two freshman
standouts from last year hurt con
siderably. Fritz Dav is, now at An
napolis, is throwing the shot-put
over 50 feet.

high jumper, went 6 feet 4 and
inches in the NAAU held here this
summer before last. He has joined
the Navy. Coach Weir feels that
Burney was also a potential 24
foot broad jumper.
A four-lap relay will also be
run in the meet Thursday. They
may set a mark that will give
the intramural teams a mark to
shoot at. Weir is using the four
lap relay to practice fast baton
exchanges in preparation for the
Drake meets. The Huskers were
second to Texas last year in the
sprint event at Drake.
