Hit! THE DAILY NEBRASKAN K n UNO PPMO Mondoy, April 21, 1952 sir Tiradkmroein! C 7 ? 131 MooreSetsNevMileMark; ledker Takes Hurdle Races u u The Nebraska track team took it on tne cmn baturday from the Missouri tracksters when they dropped a 65 to 65 dual meet to the Tigers. It was Missouri's Bob Fessler who pulled the win out of the bag for the Bengals with his second place Jn the 220-low hurdles. Previous to this race, the Missourians were leading, 6526 to 60, with only the mile relay race needed to complete the meet. Fessler came through as did the .weDrasKa miie relay team; but it was too late and the victory was lost. Lee Moore's performance in the mile was the highlight of the meet from the Nebraska stand point. Moore clicked off a 4:18.8 timing to break the meet record held by Bobby Ginn of Nebaska in 1947. Moore has been improving steadily all year and should be a strong threat to the Kansas and Oklahoma distance men when it comes time for the con ference meet at Norman, Okla., next month. Don Bedker was another beam of light for the Huskers. He topped Fessler in their clash for nuraie supremacy and swept both the high and low hurdle races. Bedker topped the lower tim- bers in 24.7 over the 220 yard route. He flashed through the 120 highs in :15.0 flat. Fessler was runner-up to Bedker in both races. Missouri's Adam Fischer won two blue ribbons for the Tiger men with victories in both sprints. He sped through the century in iu.i ana traveled the 220-yard dash trail in 22.2 seconds. Nebraska's Brien Hendrickson followed closely on Fischer's heels in both races. The Tigers picked up valuable third places in both races with Tom Mintree in the 100 and Bob Messengale in the 220. Messengale picked up top laurels in the furlong race. He took the 440 vard dash in 50.5. The Tigers were able to shut-out Nebraska's prime hope in this race, Buele Balderston, to sweep all three daces. Jerry Piper also set new meet standard m tne two mile run with a 9:39.7 effort to break the old mark of 9:52.9 set by Dale Garrels of Nebraska back in 1941. In the field, Coach Ed Weir's broadjumpers swept the kan garoo event. Glenn Beerline led the way with a leap of 23 feet 24 inches, and Irv Thode and Hoppy McCue gave second and third place support respectively.

The Huskers won four of the six field events, which must have been of some encourage ment to poach Weir. The Husk ers were also handicapped by the loss of several key men. Bobby Fairchlld, sprinter, and Clayton Scott, distance man, were lost for the meet because of illness.

All are seniors. Bob Decker wangled a free pass from Stonestreet, forcing in Nebraska's only run. Except for his eighth-inning lapse, Stonestreet was faultless, allowing no Husker baserunner to get as far as third. The smooth-working Jayhawk hurler's mates were behind him all the way as they scored once in the third frame, added a pair in the fourth and a singleton in the fifth, and topped off the show with two more In the eighth. KU jumped on starter Fran Hofmaier in the third, as Stone street got on Hofmaier's opened the frame for the Jays with a walk. Voss' sacrificed bunt shoved Enoch to second, and the Kansas rightflelder scored on Hicks' bingle to center. The final Jayhawk tallies came in the eighch inning when two walks, a sacrifice hit and Stone street's Texas League single to right provided two more scores for the visitors.
