The University of Kansas will

meet!
The Daily Nebraskan, In mak
ing Its annual form chart for
the conference carnival, found
that the Jayhawks will wind up
with 39 points and will have
their chief opposition coming
from Coach John Jacob's Okla
homa Sooners.
The Sooners will score Just three

Wildcats with 26 points. Colo
rado will nudge out Iowa State
with Its 13 points against the
Cyclone's 7.
The form chart proves that the
Kansas City carnival this year
will be one of the most closely
contested cinder spectacles held
for sometime. Less than 13 points
divide the first five clubs.
There Is, therefore, a possi
bility of great upset according to
the Nebraska dope sheet. Okla
homa, considerably more bal
anced than the Jayhawks could
just pull another "Nebraska"
this year.
Last year the Huskers were
doomed to sit back and watch the
Missouri Tiger track team burn up
the cinders, but as it turned out,
the Huskers were able to nudge
the Tigermen by a scant two
points.
It's pretty tough to call the
meet this year with so many
men recovering from injuries.
Thus, the balance of our judge
ment will depend on the avail
ability of many trackmen on the
injured list.
If we were to call the meet
event by event, it would probably
look something like this:
The 60 yard dash will find Kan
sas State's Thane Baker breaking
the tape first, with Missouri's
Harold Carter close on his heels.
Soonerland pride and joy, Quanah
Cox will be straining for third
place laurels and Kansas State's
Taylor and Oklahoma's Price will
bring in the fourth and fifth place
points.
The 440 yard dash should be
set aside as an Oklahoma fea
ture event. Jerry Meader will
take top honors, provided his
knee is completely recovered
from the Nebraska meet.
Struggling closely behind Meader
will be the Wildest ace, Thane
Baker and Oklahoma's Jerry
Mashburn, a freshman. Charles

Irpthall Rrnrini? lead coine into the
playoffs. Rogers tops all the cage

from which the scoring has not
been taken as yet, giving him an
excellent chance to break the 250

Legrand of the Red Guidons has
tallied 196 counters to date.
Marv Lawton of the Warriors Is

It is Interesting to note that

Delta Tau Delta, still smarting
from the first contest with SAE,
was out to get the Sig Alpha.

SAE's leading, 33-32, it wartime

Kennedy and Dave Olson were too
much for the Sig Alphs who could
count only on the consistency of

Paynich led all the scoring with
an 18-point effort followed by
Wenke with 16. Kennedy helped
the winning cause with another

the SAE stock with 13 tallies.
The Si ir AlDh loss gave the
league I lead to Sigma Phi Epsi

snapped a link or two in that

easier than the score would indi

With only two minutes to go

They stopped the foolishness,
however, just In time because

Rier Rill Giles tells the story of

he hit well over 50 of his tosses
for an evening's total of 22. The

It dgesn't take a genius to see
