University Daily Kansan SPORTS Cross-Country Team Victorious
By Arne Richards
(Editor's Note: Arne Richards is a member of the University of Chicago Track Club and ran in the meet.)
The Kansas Jayhawker cross country team led by vastly improved George Cabrera, easily defeated the University of Chicago Track Club, 20-38. Saturday morning in a three-mile cross-country duel on the Lawrence Country Club golf course.
the Lawrence County College, heat ( $ 77^{\circ} \mathrm{C} $ ), sunshine, high humidity, and the numerous hills kept the course record unscathed and left the athletes exhausted and dehydrated.
CABRERA CLOCKED 15:22.1, in finishing about 100 yards ahead of the UCTC's 34-year-old Harold Harris, a Chicago school teacher who doesn't just talk about physical fitness! 8—Richards UCTC, 16:17.0
The Jayhawkers first five runners—Cabrera, Paul Acevedo, Herald Hadley, Charlie Hayward, and Bill Cottle—placed 1-3-4-5-7, for a total of 20 points. In cross-country scoring, the place positions of the first five men on each team are totalled, with low score winning. A perfect score is 1-2-3-4-5=15. The sixth and seventh men can, by placing ahead of any of the first five opponents, "displace" them, therefore making their place positions count more.
Mike Fulghum, the sixth man, beat the UCTC's fourth man, while Ted Riesinger displaced their fifth man; therefore, the UCTC scored 2-6-8-10-12=38.
HARRIS LED the first half mile, but KU's first five passed him on the first big hill of the one and one-half mile loop. At the midpoint a perfect score of 15 looked possible. Harris, the Illinois state titlist in 9 miles, 13 miles, and 19 miles, worked his way back into the runner-up spot but did not threaten Cabrera.
Chicago's No. 2 man, Dave Mellady, a graduate student at Loyola University, finished just five seconds ahead of Cottle, the Hawk's fifth man.
The University of Chicago Track Club, with whom Kansas has had a home-and-home arrangement for six years, consists largely of college graduates who work in the Chicago area and want to continue participation in track and cross-country.
THERE ARE but two membership requirements—residence in Illinois and amateur status. A few of their runners have never completed college or did not go to college. Their ages range from 18 to 43. The UCTC sponsors many open meets and also schedules duels with colleges like KU, Illinois, Loyola and Notre Dame.
Kansas' last loss in cross-country duel meets was during the 1959 season, when a powerful UCTC quintet won the 4-mile race in Washington Park, Chicago. In that race the UCTC's Phil Coleman, two-time Olympic steeplecher, and Gar Williams, runner-up in the National AAU marathon, were well under 20:00. In the last nine years of Bill Easton's tenure as coach, the Jayhawkers lost only this one dual meet.

JRPF, Hot Dogs Win In Action Friday

The Hot Dogs handed Joliffe its second consecutive defeat 19-7. Tyron, Stewart and Anderson all scored for the winners. The Hot Dogs are tied with JRPF for first place with a 3-0 record.
Cornhuskers Receive Scare, But Win 19-14
All Big Eight teams saw action Saturday, six in conference play and two in non-conference action.
The Nebraska Cornhuskers remained the league's only undefeated team as halfback Dennis Stuewe raced 13 yards to score with about a minute remaining to play to give the Cornhuskers a 19-14 win over North Carolina State.
THE WOLFPACK staged a last-minute drive, but the Nebraska defense held tight to preserve the victory.
It was an uphill battle for the Cornhuskers all the way. North Carolina State scored in the first quarter to take a 6-0 lead which it held at halftime.
Nebraska scored in the opening minutes of the second half on Dennis Claridge's four-yard keeper only to relinquish its lead when Joe Scarpati returned the kickoff 91 vards to score.
The Wolfpack outplayed the Cornhuskers statistically rolling 154 yards on the ground and 202 yards through the air while holding Nebraska to 130 yards on the ground and 48 through the air.
THE OKLAHOMA SOONERS almost won one from Texas, United Press International's second ranked team, but yielded 9-6 in their traditional intersectional rivalry at Dallas, Tex.
Two Oklahoma fumbles paved the way for the Longhorns' victory. One set up a 26-yard field boal by Tony Crosby and the other a touchdown when the ball rolled into the end zone and Perry McWilliams recovered it.
Oklahoma's touchdown came on a 34-yard pass play from Ronald Fletcher to Lanze Retzel. Texas remains unbeaten in four games. Oklahoma's record is 1-2.

Accident Prevents Cricket Competition
A car wreck prevented a cricket game between the Lawrence and the Kansas City Cricket teams which was to be played Saturday afternoon at KU.
Jerry Simon, Kansas City team captain was hospitalized after the accident in Kansas City Friday evening. Simon was to lead the team Saturday. Players of the Kansas City team did not get together and the game was canceled. The Lawrence team, after a long wait, played among themselves.
