Page 6 The Daily Nebraskan Wednesday, May 11, 1966 v., V.. X "MS." - ..." ' V , m '.I If: J I 1 V 1 Jim Beltzer . . . should get some points for Nebraska in Big Kight meet. Beltzer 'Ready For Pitch Because of their traditional mastery of their specialties, Missouri's Gene Crews and Kansas' Tom Purma go into this year's Big Eight Conference track and field championships, Friday and Saturday at the Univresity of Missouri, on solide'r footing than most of the individual event favorites. Crews is the best in the history of the Big Eight when it comes to putting the shot. He will be going after his second straight outdoor crown to go with the three in a row he won indoors. The hefty Tiger claimed the all time Big Eight best at the Conference indoor when he splattered chalk dust at the 61-7U spot. This Is a foot better than the outdoor record, and previous all-time best, held by Olympic Gold Medallst Bill Neider of Kansas. No one has really been close to Crews, the 1964 National Track and Field Federa tion indoor champion, this year with the 16-pound ball. However, Nebraska's Jim Beltzer might be ready to make his pitch after settling at the 58-foot level all spring. Beltzer rates as one of the most im proved weight men in the country. During the past year, he has added more than three feet to his previous best efforts set two years ago. In comparison with last year at this time, when he was bothered by an exposed nerve in the elbow of his throwing arm, Beltzer is plopping the ball out there six feet farther. At the next level stand Kansas' Gary Barr and Colorado's Terry Ten Eyck and Barry King. Not a lot, except experience, separates these three. The two Buffs have a year on Barr. The Kansan has been a johnny-come-lately, but he might score the best weight double of all the behemoths if he carries his improvement trend in the discus through the weekend. He has upped his efforts to the upper 160s and is rated as solid in both events now, with teammate Gary Schwartz, the defending discus king, leading the platter troops. Schwartz, however, is probably feeling the competition pinch more than any of the other weight tossers. Sailing awfully close to his near-180 distance are Oklahoma State's Miles Lister, Oklahoma's Carl Pellegrini and Gordon Wheeler, King, Crews, and Barr. Even though this discus race rates about as tight as any, a new Conference record is unlikely, though Schwartz has been within five feet of the standard the mark is 183-5 by Al Oerter, another Olym pic Gold-Medalist from Kansas. Another Jayhawker trying for a sec ond title on the Conference circuit is Pur ma, the javelin flinger who had his little trend toward domination of the event side tracked last year when Bill Floerke de cided to compete again for Kansas State. Purma did wing the spear to a winning distance when he was a sopho more, but had to settle for second last year. So lar this year, he has been con ststently 20 feet out in front of the rest, rest. Even though dominating his special ty, he doesn't have much of a shot at the current record, either. Like Schwartz, Purma, too, is tossing in the shadow of an Olympian, Bill Alley, who managed to break ground at 256-10 while competing for the Jayhawks. The race for second and valuable , team points, in this event should be in teresting. Any one of five could do it: Kansas State's Bud Roper, Oklahoma's Byron Berline (the national old-time fiddl ing champion), Oklahoma's Henry Beli, Kansas' Jim Pankratz and Colorado's Glen Arbeau. All are returning placers. Big 8 Track Meet Draws NU Stars Nebraska's Cornhuskeis will challenge for the 1966 Big 8 Track and Field Cham pion ships trophy at Columbia, Mo.. Fri day and Saturday with a 19-man squad. "It looks like a wide-open race be tween several good teams," Coach Frank Scvigne said. "And we plan on being in the race for the title. If all our men per form up to capabilities, we'll have a shot at winning the meet." Ace Husker sprinter Charlie Greene and veteran hurdler Ray Harvey, who missed the dual with Mizzouri last week as the Scarlets won, 83-62, are expected to be ready for full-scale labor in the loop meet. Greene, defending champion in the 100 and 220, is entered in both events again, and will also run a leg on the NU 440 yard relay team. "My 1 e g feels better and I'll be ready," Greene said Monday, referring to the strain he suffered during the Drake Relays. Nebraska's chief strength lies in the sprints, where both Greene and Lynn Headley rate status, the middle distances, (Dove Crook and Pete Scott the vets, Les llellbusch a fine sophomore) and both the 120-yard high hurdles and 330 intermedi ates (Dave Kudron, Lon Sherlock and Har vey). Jim Beltzer, who has established a new NU shot record of 57-9V2 and Steve Krebs. a 6-6U highjumper, lead the Husk er field delegation. iiiii A Omit qj '-w..i.j.'iii1iiiilAl,.fcCii.-- Branch Is Featured At J-School A Cornhusker basketball standout will be featured at the annual School of Journal ism banquet May 14 at the Nebraska Union, but neither basketball nor journalism has anything to do with his ap pearance.
