Cooper, Jones Set AIl-Time
NU Marks in Vault, 880
By Bill Mundell.
Nebraska's indoor eindermen
tan Kansas State in1o a 69 to
34 2 '3 defeat in Memorial Sta
dium Wednesday night. The
Huskers captured first place hon
ors in eight of the 12 events to
t'op their fourth dual meet m five
Marts. Only the loss to Missouri
mars the Husker record.
Huskors Don Cooper and Hobe
Jones took good care of four rec
ords during the evening's activity.
Both took one first place, but
rach was good for two new rec
ords. Vaulter Cooper shattered the
old Nebraska-Kansas State dual
record of 13 feet, 8Vfe inches early
in the evening. "Moose"' cleared
14 feet and then took aim alt he
till-time Nebraska indoor record,
which he had set in the opening
dual meet this year.
Over For a Record
On third try he slipped across
the bar and established a new
mark of 14 feet 5?s inches. Cooper
wasn't through trying and nar
rowly missed 14-9 on the third
try.
Jones set his records in his spe
cialty, the half-mile. Hobe and
Dick Towers of K-State set a blis
tering pace for the first three laps
which saw Towers leading most
of the way.
Around the last turn it was too
much for the Wildcat and he
faded badly as Jones roared on
to win in 1:57.3.
This was 1.1 seconds better
than the old dual mark set bv
Kopf of Nebraska in 1947. What
was even better wras that it
eclipsed the all-time Nebraska
880 record of 1:57.1 set by Bobby
Ginn.
This was all the record-break
bv two vards in the time of
3:29.5.
Jacobsh Leads Off
Ken Jacobs started the Huskors
off on the right foot by rapturing
the mile in 4:26.9. "Jake" Was
pressed most of the way by
K-Stater Ted Hanson who fin
ished second. Oene Yolk in of the
Huskors copped the third place.
Jacobs also brought in second
place points for Nebraska as he
crossed the finish line behind
Jones in the 880. Dale Schnackle,
also a Huskor completed the NU
sweep of the half. Wildcat Tow
ers, who had fought with Jones
for most of the race, finished n
poor fourth.
The other Huskor sweeps wore
highlighted during the evening.
The Scarlet took one-two-three
in both the 60-yard high hurdles
and the shot put.
Paul Grimm heaved the iron
ball 45-5 to snag the victory in
that event. Lowoll Neilson and
George Prochaska finished right
behind Grimm.
Bedker Wins Two
Don Eeriker captured one of his
two victories of the evening in
the high hurdles to lead his
Huskor males to that sweep. Don
skimmed the barriors in :07.6.
Second and third places went to
Dan Tolmnn and Blake Cathro.
In the low hurdles Bedker sped
to a :07.2 victory. Tolman again
took second and Wildcat Walters
placed third.
Other Husker first-place win
ners were Dick Meissnor in the
high jump and Bob Kruger in the
two-mile run.

Cage Crowds
Fall in 1950
Four Big Seven schools have
j reported a nose-dive in basket
ball attendance this season. Only
Kansas State and Iowa State are
showing larger crowds for the
cage sport while the University
of Kansas is drawing about the
same size crowds.
Kansas State, with a team
closing in on the championship
and playing a new two million
dollar field house, has attracted
95,900 for nine home games a
record for Big Seven members.
The big decreases have been at
Oklahoma, Nebraska, Missouri
and Colorado.
Colorado (4-16), suffering its
worst season in years, is down
an average of about 1700 per
game.
Nebraska's attendance also has
gone down with its team stand
ing. The 1950 Huskers, who
shared the title with Kansas State
and Kansas, drew 24,166, an av
erage of 4027 for its first six home
games. This time the average for
the first six was only 2904.
