KU Trackmen Top MU In League Meet Tuneup
By SAM JONES Kansan Sports Writer
Running on a wet track and in cold weather seemed to be to suit the KU track squad last Friday as they won nine of 15 events to down Missouri 73-57 in a dual meet for the third straight year.
New meet records were set in the shot put, the high jump, and the javelin. The record for the 120- yard hard hurdles was equaled.
KU's Don Sneegas broke the lacrosse record by two feet with a toss of 206 feet $67\frac{1}{8}$ inches, and Missouri's Bob Lang set a new record in the high jump with a leap of 6 feet $54$ inches.
Top winners of the day were KU's Al Frame, who won the one and two-mile events, and Dick Blair, who won the 100 and the 220.
The 126-yard high hurdles record was tied by KU's Billerstein, who set the mark in last year's dual meet. The time was 14:5.
And this race probably caused the most discussion of the day. At the gun, fired by starter A.E. Woeesteyer of Lawrence, Biberstein appeared to have gotten a big jump up, the other runners.
The first record to fall was in the shot put. Kansan Bill Nieder, on his second preliminary heave, broke the old record by three feet. He broke the record again in the finals with a toss of 56 feet 9 inches.
The Tiger's Bill Constantine, Biberstein's big competitor during the indoor season, tretted from the finish line at the north end of the stadium to stop Mr. Woestemeyer walking across the south end to the west side.

he had a heave of over 57 feet in the finals, but his toe was on the foul line and the toss was not allowed.
"Don't you know what a good start is when you see one?" asked Constantine. "That was a bad start. It doesn't matter if it's a KU man. That was a bad start, dad."
Mr. Woestemeyer said he was to Constantine, and continued walking to the other side of the stadium. There were comments by others in the field that Biberstein had a moving at the gun, but Tiger track coach Tom Botts didn't register a complaint with meet officials.
Al Frame, who had to run the most around the wet track, said, "The track looks bad. But it's really pretty solid."
"It looks cut-up, but it wasn't like the Relays, all pocketed," said Frame.
The Jayhawkers had the meet clinched after the first ten events, leading with a 55-34 score.

San Francisco — (U.P.) Here are the pre-battle statements before tonight's World Heavyweight Championship fight:
promisehip
Don Cockell—I have trained long and faithfully. I'm in the best condition of my career. I'm confident I will win. I mtrained to go 15 rounds, but I'll do my best to end it before then. The betting odds do not bother me. I've been an underdog before, and won. I won't let the folks at home down.
Both Men Confident Before Title Bout
Rocky Marciano—I'll do my best to keep the title here in the United States. I respect a hard fight and I'm trained for one. I won't go rushing out at hom, but I'll try to knock him out as soon as possible. My nose doesn't worry me. I never predict how or when a fight will end, but I'm confident I'll win."

Wind Spoils Santee's Bid; Runs 4:06.5 for Track Record
"That wind was rough," said Kansas W Santee after fighting a 14-mile an hour wind blowing over the 29th annual West Coast relays at Fresno, Calif. Saturday.
Running a 4:06.5 for the mile event, Santee said the wind "was as bad, I guess, as it was at Miami."
"I guess I shouldn't kick, though, Santee said. "I've run in worse winds back in Kansas."
Though Art Dalzell, his pacer this Spring, was along on the trip, Santee got unexpected aid from Gene Jones, running for the Santa Clara youth center.
Santee finished 35 yards in front of Len Simpson of the San Francisco Olympic club. Dalzell dropped out of the race a half-lap after Jones.
Santee's quarter times were :59,
:62, :63, and :62.5 seconds. The
4:06:5 was a new stadium record.
