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.
