Key To Success
In Sprints, Hurdles
Much of Nebraska's success
in the Big Eight outdoor track
competition will depend upon
the sprints and the hurdles,
according to Frank Sevigne,
head track coach. .
Sevigne's entire sprint
corps was wiped ont by grad
uation. Tom Hodson, Don
House, . Dick Jahr, and Don
Fhillipps all finished their
varsity competition last
spring.
The hurdles are fairly
strong; however, lack of
depth hurts the Husker
chances in the sprints. In the
Big Eight conference meet,
Nebraska was shutout in the
sprints. They picked up sev
eral points in the hurdles.
Kansas Toughest
In appraising sprint
strength in the Conference Se
vigne said, "Kansas without
a question will be the toughest
team to beat in the sprints
this year with NCAA champ
Tidwell."
Oklahoma also will be
strong in this area. Sooner
Dee Givens has run the 100
y a r d dash in 9.4 seconds.
Last year he took second
place in the Conference in
the 220.

pend upon Bob Cross, former
Boystown prep star, in the
sprints. "Cross is our best
sprinter and our only hope
for the outdoor season in the
100 and 200," said Sevigne.
Newcomers Help
Newcomers Dick Kier and
LeRoy Keane are expected to
do well in the 440-yard dash
this year. Keane, A Jamai
can import, has run the 440
in 50.8 seconds. Dick Kier,
New York City middle dis
tance flash, has marks of
1:13 and 1:56 in the 600 and
880, respectively.
Returning letterman Milt
Haedt will pace the hurd
lers. The 6'1" junior picked
up three points in the Big
Eight Indoor Meet by plac
ing third in the high hueles.
He runs both the 120 high
hurdles and the 220 low hur
dles. Also expected to help out
in the hurdles are sopho
mores Bill Fasano and Steve
Smith.
The 440 relay team will con
sist of Bob Cross, Bill Fasa
no, Steve Smith, and return
ing letterman Bob Knaub.
The mile-relay team will
be chosen from Kier, Keane,
Cross, Ken Ash, and Joe Mul
lins. Their main competition
will come from Oklahoma,
whose mile-relay team won
the indoor conference met
with a 3:21.7 clocking.

Professional boxing would
be outlawed today if the
choice was up to those who
direct the sports programs
ii the nation's colleges and
universities, according to a
recent country-wide survey.
Directors of athletics voted
by more than 5 to 1 to elimi
nate the fight-for-pay game
termed the "down-at-t h e
heels prostitute of organized
sport," by James Stewart
Gordon in his article, "Abol
ish Professional Boxing," in
the current Reader's Digest.
. The a thletic heads of de
partments were sent reprints
of the article in which the
author strongly advocated the
abolition of professional box
ing because of its control by
mobsters and the severe i-n
juries fighters suffered in the
ring along with a four-part
question sheet.
The fourth question asked
sports heads if they agreed
to ban boxing because of the
racketeering element and the
health hazard to boxers. To
this, 38 sport's heads said
they were prepared to dump
professional boxing because
of mobster infiltration and
32 because of the health fac
tor. Only 7 voted against re
moving boxing because of
racketeering while 6 said
health was not a strong
enough reason.
Some comments brought
forth by the questionnaire
were:
". . . Competitive boxing
for the entertainment of the
public, both amateur and
professional, can be faulted
as a health hazard," wrote
Wilford H. Ketz, director of
athlietcs at Union College,
Schenectady, N.Y.
Springfield College's Ed
ward S. Steitz had this to
say:
"Professional boxing could
provide helmets and other
protection for other parts of
the body if it and the public
were not 'sadistic' Protec
tion much like that used in
fencing could be used and
still have the finess and
movement factors which are
the skills of boxing."

Education Department is

Thr Chromeless Set
One thing everyone has forgotten so far in the big
discussions of Whether or Not to Pave the Selleck
Lot the protection a properly designed lot could
give the sports car own
er. If you wheel around
one of the bumper
shielded monsters, park
ing lots hold no fear.
But consider the proud
possesser of an immac
ulately groomed midget
whose pride and joy
wears no superfluous
ornaments like sturdy
bumpers. In a free-for-all
lot, the crunch-system
parkers are deadly
menaces.
In the March 28 issue of
LIFE, Bayard Hooper
notes that some sports
car owners have resorted to plaintive signs placed
on the car in front, "Please be careful: there's a small
car parked behind you.
In five delightful pages Hooper spins out the whole
story of the men who buy the midgets. Like:
"They are a far-gone crowd. Genuine addicts, they
discuss their affliction with such frenzied intensity
that innocent bystanders are driven to raise the
question: are they certifiably mad."
The Other Insane
But all insanity isn't of the fun brand, and LIFE
looked briefly this week at the seriously sick. Three
Radcliffe and five Harvard students had themselves
locked up in wards of a Boston state hospital. For
four days and nights, these eight students lived as
patients in this wierd world.
After their four days, the outside world, too had
become disconnected, they reported, "We went
right through a red light" without stopping and
walked out of a restaurant without paying."
Russia's Hidden Art
And once again another peek through another crack
in the Iron Curtain. A LIFE photographer prowled
he back rooms of museums, closets of private homes,
dusty warehouses to come up with a vivid picture
of the Russia art which can't be displayed in the
galleries.
Young Russian artists, perhaps spurred by the slight
maiiaaon since Staiin's death have been turning out
startlingly modern paintings looking remarkably
like the "bourgeois decadence" which is forbidden in
the official art of the country. Many of the pictures
Alexander Marshack captured in color have never
been ' hung and have ,
little prospect 01 ever
seeing light except
through these 12 pages
of photos.
Why the Finch
Jury Disagreed
Behind the story of the
hung jury in the fan
tastic Finch trial lies a
drama of 12 individuals
thrown into isolation to
deliberate on two lives
and a tangle of legal
ities. LIFE looks at these
12 jury members and
speculates on possibili
ties behind the 10-2
deadlock finally reached.
