Husker Cindermen Drop
Surprising K-Statc Team
Hampered by the loss of sprint
ers Dick Ilutton, Hurry Mcginnis
and Loyal Hurlbert, Nebraska's
powerful cinder squad had to rely
on team strength Wednesday aft
ernoon to defeat a surprisingly
strong Kansas State track team,
73' 2 to 57'
Three men scored double wins
as Cornhusker middle-distance
man, Harold Kopf, notched vic
tories in both the mile and half
mile events, Hollin Prather of
Kansas State took both the discus
and the shot put events, and Rod
ney McClay, Wildcat sprinter,
won both the 100-yard dash and
the 220-yard low hurdles. McClay
also tied for first place in the pole
vault.
KOPF WON the mile event by
rdgir.g out teammate Hill Mount
I'ord in a lime of 4:27.6. He then
came back to win the half-mile
event in a time of 1:59.1.
McClay was the big wheel for
the Wildcats. He started off by
e "ing out Husker Al Thompson
in the 100 with a time of :09.7. He
then came back to take the 220
yaid hurdles in a time of :23.6.
McClay also tied for another first
as he cleared 12 feet to end up
even with Leonard Kehl in the
pole vault.
Hollin Prather, indoor shot put
champion, '.ook both the shot and
discus events, heaving the shot
48' 10". and tossing the discus
149' 10".
Team strength told the differ
ence as the Huskers piled up a
sufficient number of seconds and
thirds to take the meet. The Husk
ers also swept the javelin event.
JIM MARTIN won the mile re
lay for the Huskers. He took the
baton on the last quarter-mile leg
15 yards behind the Wildcat an
chor man. Billy Stuart and ran
a 48.6 quarter mile to finish
right feet ahead of Stuart. The
Husker time was 3:23.9 for the
mile distance.
