A quick start and an even
faster finish sums up the 1965
Big Eight Conference indoor
track season highlighted by
Conference domination of the
first NCAA indoor and the
third national Federation
championships, two Confer
ence records broken, and six
all-time best times equalled or
t)6tt6r(l
The big hint of resurgence
In Big Eight track ranks
came when Missouri won the
inaugural NCAA title, followed
by Oklahoma State, with the
Conference members scoring
44 points more than a fifth
of the total divided by 46
scoring teams and rac
ing away to five of the 14 in
dividual championships.
At this one, Missouri's Rob
in Lingle took the 1000, Ne
braska's Charlie Greene got
the 60, Kansas' Herald Had
ley won the two mile, and
Oklahoma State scored twice
with Tom Von Ruden in the
880 and its two-mile relay
team of Jim Metcalf, John
Perry, Dave Perry, and Von
Ruden.
Lingle, Greene, and the
Cowboy relay unit won their
specialties at the Federation
championships. In addition,
Conference mates Dick Strand
of Nebraska and Steve Car
son of Iowa State won their
respective sections in the 600
C arson in meet-record
time and Gene Crews of Mis
souri took the shot put.
Not winning, but coming in
for his share of recognition
was Missouri's Steve Hern
don, a sophomore high jump
er, who cleared 6-10V4, equall
ing the all-time Conference
best, a mark held by Colora
do's Leander Durley.
This was just one of the
bests recorded during the
year that started fast when,
in their first times out, Dave
Perry cracked the all-time
mark in the 600-yard run,
1:10.4, and Colorado's Jim
Miller equalled the pinnacle,
:06.7, in the 60 lows.
At the Big Eight champion
ships, Oklahoma's James
Jackson steamed the 60 in a
record breaking and all-time
equalling :06.0. Lingle follow
ed with a 2:08.8 1000, a cham
pionships record and best.
However, he lowered this
best mark at the Federation
meet by going 2:07.3, a little
over a second off the U.S.
standard.
Perhaps the biggest success
story of the season lies with
Kansas' Herald Hadley in the
NCAA two mile. Noted ma:n
ly for his work in the 1000 and
mile, Hadley shot to the front
with about two laps to go at
Detroit and won in 8:56.4.
In doing so, the Kansas
captain from little Shallow
Water, Kansas, became the
first Big Eight distance ace to
run the two mile under nine
minutes indoors, surpassing
the likes of Wes Santee, Miles
Eisenmann, Billy Mills, Bob
Karnes, Bill Silverberg, and
Herb Semper.
This time not only betters

but also beats the best of San
tee outdoors, an 8:58 back in
1954, which stood as the best
time, indoors or outdoors, in
Big Eight history. In addition
to Santee and now Hadley,
only two other Big Eight run
ners, Eisenmann of Okla
homa State and Gail Hodgson
of Oklahoma, have been un
der nine minutes for the dis
tance. Thus, the indoor season has

Closing out the week-long
presentation of all-star teams
is today s revealing of tne au-
Intramural five.
Balance is the word for the
All-Star sauad. The team has
height and strength on the
frontline, and aggressive
speed and defensive quicKness
on the backline.
Any of the three frontlincrs
are capable of handling du
ties of a cornerman.

Foul Rule
Alteration
Is Needed
Sports Illustrated
Pushes New Rule
Sports Illustrated this week
repeats its call for a change
in basketball's foul-out rule.
The editorial comment is in
the Scorecard section of the
same issue of the magazine
(March 29th) which covers
the NCAA championships and
refers directly to the Princeton-Michigan
game.
Sports Illustrated points to
the 17 first-half fouls called
against Princeton versus only
four against Michigan. The
point to be made, according
to the magazine, is not criti
cism of the officiating but
the more basic one:
"A flaw exists in basketball
that changes the game, inhib
its a team and cheats the fan
who pays to see the best in
both teams.
"When Princeton's Bill
Bradley acquired his third
foul in the first half of that
taut semifinal, Michigan's
victory was practically as
sured. When he got his fourth,
early in the second half, Mich
igan's victory was assured.
Because no matter how great
a player is, the specter of
being whistled out of play for
a fifth personal foul restricts
his talents, makes him cau
tious, sometimes so cautious
that he commits foolishly the
very foul he is trymg to
avoid."
And, Sports Illustrated fur
ther points out, "...the
strongest penalty that exists
in any other sport is the
hockey penalty box, and even
that does not eliminate a
player permanently or spoil
the game."

but the lingering shaking of
the hoop and backboard.
White informed the Daily
Nebraskan that he had re
ceived scholarship offers to
other schools for his basket
ball abilities. He displays both
around the basket on offense
and defense, and his steady
outside shooting gives an in
dication that the 6'5" 220
pounder could have continued
on to play effective varsity
basketball for the Huskers
after his freshman hardcourt
season.
Freeman noted that little
Larry Wachholz, another of
the stars, was the best man
he competed against in t h e
' A' league.
Fraternity ranks dominate
the remainder of the squad,
beginning with Sigma P h i
Epsilon entry Tim Schmad.
A history major in Teach
ers College, the sophomore
from Omaha Central comes
in at 6', 175 pounds.
Schmad gained recognition
for his strong defensive work
for the Sig Eps. He named
star mate Jerry Webb as the
toughest opponent he had to
defend against this year.
On offense, Schmad liked o
fire from the 25-foot mark,
and he hit with creditable ac
curacy from that long range.
He is active in the Nebras
ka Education Association and
is Intramural chairman for
his house.
Jerry Webb, a major reas
on why the Phi Kappa Psi
house wears the all-University
basketball crown, is the next
selection.
Webb is a 6'3" 210 pound
All-Stater from Gering. The
Business Administration ma
jor acts as social chairman
at the Phi Psi house along
with his intramural activities.
Rebounding and explosive
scoring from inside and out,
characterize Webb's court con
tributions. He collected many
of his points on tip-ins and
supplemented these with a
long jumper that could be
called his favorite shot.

Webb singled out anotner

Another former all-s t a t e
pick to make the team is Bob
