The University of Kansas will
win the Big Seven Indoor track
meet!
The Dally 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 cominf
from Coach John Jacob's Okla
homa Sooners.
The Sooners will score just three
points less than the Kansans and
will top Nebraska's third place
point effort of 29 points. In

Wildcats with 26 points. Colo
rado will nudf e out Iowa State
with its 13 points arainst the
Cyclone's 74.
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 treat 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 touch 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 urw in rail 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 Wildcat ace. Thane
Baker and Oklahoma's Jerry
Mashburn, a freshman. Charles

lops Scoring
In Intramural
Cliff Rogers of the Ag YMCA
has taken over the intramural bas
ketball scoring lead going into the
playoffs. Rogers tops all the cage
acorers with 213 points in 12
games. He still has two contests,
from which the scoring has not
been taken as yet, giving him an
excellent chance to break the 250
mark. Number two man in acorinr
Is another Ag league man. Ken
Legrand of the Red Guidons has
tallied 196 counters to date.
Marv Lawton of the Warriors is
third in scoring in the University
with a 169-point total and Jim
Worth of the Ramblers is fourth
with 157 points. Bob Boesiger of
the Dorm A Comets rounds out
the top five point-getters in I-M
basketball with 150 to his credit
It is interesting to note that
three of the top five men will
not see any tourney" action be
cause their teams failed to qual
ify for the playoffs. The Ag
YMCA. Warriors and Rambler
all finished far out of conten
tion. The first fraternity scorer, Jim
Weber of Farm House, ranks
seventh in the AU-U bracket be
hind Phil Haas of the Rockets.
Weber has earned 145 tallies while
Haas has 147.
Eighth man on the scoring
top-ten is Al Blessing of Alpha
Tau Omega with 139 and ninth

the tournament. Jean Bhcken
staff defeated Joyce Laase 21 to
three in the semi-finals, and Pat
Wiedman defeated Wanda Barrett
21-13 and 21-10 to enter the finals.
Carol French played Jean Bhcken
staff in a semi-final game last
night, and the winner plays Pat
Wiedman in the finals tonight.
Coleman of Oklahoma and
"Snuffy" Smith of Kansas should
finish in that order.
The half mile should provide
one of the hottest races of the
day. Kansas' flashy distance
starlet, Wes Santee, should cop
top honors from Crabtree of
Oklahoma. Towers of K-State,
Art Dalzeli, Kansas sophomore
and Reed of Oklahoma should
come in that order.
Santee will return to take the
mile blue ribbon from his run'

Sigma Chi almost kept pace
with the SAE's and Sig Eps.
They met Phi Gamma Delta, the
last-place team in league I, and
barely squeezed through to gain
the playoffs, 27-26.
It was a close contest all the
way with the Sigs fighting to make
the play offs and the Fijis battling
to show the Delts and Phi Delts
that they could do it too. They al
most did.

kept the Taus above water. Tom

It dgesn't take a genius to see
that the Jayhawks and the Soon
ers will be monopolizing on the
points in the middle and distance
races. Kansas will earn 23 points
from those races and Oklahoma
17. Nebraska picks ud 8. Kansas
State 7, Missouri 5 and the other
two schools are shut out.
In the field events, the tale of
team balance will tell. The
Sooners will hold the edge over
the Jayhawks in this depart
ment, with their only weakness
in the pole vault event.
Neville Price, dapper young
Sooner sophomore, will walk off
with broad jumping honors. Here
could well be another record
breaking performance.
Vert Switzer of Kansas State,
Glenn Beerline of Nebraska,
, Irv Thode of Nebraska and
Quanah Cox of Oklahoma
should complete the list of win
ners in the kangaroo event.
Colorado's Holley should walk
off with high jumping honors.
The Buffalo aerial artist has been

Jones of Missouri and Oklahoma
respectively, will battle it out for
second and third, with the nod
going to Gorden.

The Dents' win clinched second
spot in league XI for the teethies.
Gordon Pejsar and Don Downs
each tallied ten points for the
winners while Dick Doe ring
topped the Pills with nine.
Brown Palace handed a play
spot to Acacia in league DU by
drubbing Tau Kappa Epislon,

given them a tie with the Ma

league .
The Palacers controlled the
game for most of the way. It was
12-11 Brown Palace at the quar
ter and 20-20 at half time. The Pal

breezed on in to the victory.
