If anything can be attributed to
the defeat of Ed Weir's Univer
sity of Nebraska track and field
team to Iowa Slate Saturday it
was the sorrowful lack of Husker
scoring punch in the distance
events.
The Cyclones swept the two
mile and the 880 as they de
feated Nebraska for the first time
In history in indoor competition.
The mile would, have been an
other Cyclone slam if third-place
finisher Ron Jackson hadn't been
disqualified for bumping Ne
braska's Stan Matzke.
As things were Coach Burl
Berry's clan spoiled the Husker's
indoor traCk inaugural 58-46.
THERE WAS a big Nebraska
bright spot, in the person
of high-jumper Phil Heidelk.
senior from Fairbury. He cleared
tor bar a 6 feet 4 78 inches to
break the existing meet record
of 6 3" by Nebraska's Dick
Meissner in 195L.
Heidelk's leap was also with
in one-eighth inch of Meissner's
indoor varsity record and only
one-half inch under the Big Seven
indoor record set by Kansas' Tom
Scofield in 1948-
NEBRASKA'S BEST all-around
showing came in the field events.
