It just isn't safe for records
around Nebraska's Memorial
Stadium any more.
The Huskers, about as
tough a crew on the cinders
as any around this year, will
menace a total of six meet
records when they go against
Colorado in the Stadium Sat
urday at 3:30 p.m. The start
ing time was moved back by
coach Frank Sevigne to avoid
a conflict with Ivy Day cere
monies. Two Mile Record
First mark figured to fall
is the two mile record of
10:04.3 set by Nebraska's
Don Yochum way back in
1936. Colorado's talented

There wiH be no badminiton games this Wednesday, be
cause of a conflict with the softball tournament. But games
will be played as usual on Monday.
P. E. Patter
I thought Spring had come. I was wrong .(as usual). This
Is a catastrophe. No more convertibles with the tops down.
No more fun and games outside. But worst of all, no more
irisby! Second worst of all, no golfing outside on a golf
course to surpass all courses, better known as the field
behind University High.
I'm sure the field behind U. High brings back memories
to every girl who has ever taken P. E. "The Field," as it
is affectionately called, was, is and has been the scene
of many and varied girl's athletics for years. This is the
place where freshmen engage in field hockey, softball, soc
cer, and sophomores play GOLF!
If some of the girls don't care a whole lot for their
particular P. E. sport, at least they receive a multitude of
attention just from being on the field. The Sigma Chis and
the U. High boys love girl's sports, as is evidenced from
the wide attendance at the windows during P.E. class
hours. Nobody minds this much, until the audience starts
to take sides, and after individual girls are recognized. If s
just too embarrassing, you know. To say nothing of the con
tradiction that the girls would just die if people were not
watching! Yes, it is confusing.
To solve this problem, maybe they'll start integrating
rrirls' P. E. and ROTC I bear there's a petition going around
right now .....

tain to better this time. Ne
braska will be sorely pressed
for talent in the two mile
with senior standout Bob El
wood still hobbled by a bad
leg.
The High Hurdles record
will provide a convenient
goal for Nebraska's Keith
Gardner. The old record of
:14.4 set by C o 1 o r a d o's
Bedker in 1952 is likely to
succumb to the Jamaican
Jet who has done :14.1.
Gardner may also run a

junior's best leap came Sat
urday at Drake.
Bill Lafleur has the best
chance to crack another field
event record in the javelin.
Les Gardman of Colorado
holds the present record of
195 lite", but LaFleur has
done over 200 feet in prac
tice. The Madison senior has
been unable to crack the 200
foot mark in competition
however, but still rates as the
top Husker entered. Colorado
has Ron Francke who has a
season's mark of 212' 11" to
make him the favorite in this
event.
Aces Gone
Both squads will be com
peting without the services of
a pair of ace cindermen. Col
orado lost hurdler Eddie
Dove at the Kansas Relays
with a pulled Achilles tendon.
The Buff star, ranked as one
of the nation's best in the
hurdles, was scheduled to run
legs on the 440 and 880 yard
relay teams, but his injury
has not responded to treat
ment. Dove is also a football
halfback, and the injury
leaves his availability for
next fall in doubt.
Nebraska's Joe Mullins is
still nursing an ankle injury.
Mullins, one of Nebraska's
better sophomore prospects,
has been slow rounding in to
form after an operation to
remove calcium from the in
jured hpne. Coach Frank
Sevigne reported Monday,
however, that Mullins may
run.
Omrtear Liaooia Star
Pollard
means that still another rec
ord will be in jeopardy. The
old record of 3:23.7 has been
bettered in time trials by
both teams this year. Ne
braska leads with a 3:19
clocking in the Michigan Re
lays earlier this year.
Fleming To Duel
Mike Fleming, Nebraska's
brilliant sophomore distance
man will hook up with Colo-j
rado's Mike Peak in a half
mile competition that should j
give them both an oppor-j
tunity to write their names
in the Stadium record book.
The present record is 1:55.7 i
set by Dave Bolin of the
Buffs in 1947. Fleming came
through with a scorching!
1:50.9 at Drake Saturday and
Peak has done 1:50.2 while
anchoring the Colorado sprint
medley team at the Kansas
Relays.
Pollard Threatens
Moving over to the field
events, it appears that Ken
Pollard, best vaulter the
Huskers have produced since
Don Cooper did 15 feet in
1953, will certainly rewrite
the pole vault record. The old
standard of 13'4" was set by
Cooper in 1951 and Pollard
has done exactly a foot high
er than that. The Husker
