Frosh Runners Are Best Since '48'
Page 5
"More depth and better balance," head track coach Bill Easton said, "is the main factor making this year's freshman cinder squad the best one at the University in eight years."
Twenty-five young Jayhawkers have indicated they will participate this year, with most of them already working out. However, several of the hopefuls are at present engaged in freshman football and some will take time out to play basketball.
Several outstanding high school track stars are leading this year's fine freshman crop. Among them is Kent Floerke of Rosedale, who is heralded as one of the finest field prospects to come to the Jayhawk camp during the past few years. He placed fourth in the broad jump at the National AAU meet this summer while competing against the best competition in the nation.
Depth in the running field will include such freshmen as Hal Long of Van Nuys, Calif.; Ray Wyatt of Highland Park; Jerry McNeal of Minneapolis, Minn.; Paul Baker of Dedham, Mass.; Earl Elben of Olathe; Ken Peters, of Winnepeg, Canada, and Clark Mock of Hutchinson.
Easton again emphasizes that there are many potential track men on the campus who could be out for track. Those interested may contact the coach at his office in Robinson gym or at the dressing room in the west side of the football stadium.
Long Island, N.Y., star Al Oerter is already throwing the discus farther than any of last year's varsity men. He is a former winner of the New York state prep meet with a throw of more than 184 feet.
Following is a list of the freshmen and their events. The (*) before a boy's name denotes he is out for cross-country meets and will participate in the postal meets scheduled for this fall.

San Francisco — (U)P.)— Ex-lightweight champion Jimmy Carter today faced the task of "getting up" for champion Paddy DeMarco for the third time after taking out his frustration last night with a bruising 10-round decision over Freddie (Babe) Herman in a nationally-televised Cow Palace substitute bout.
Carter Faces Hard Training
Carter, who fought a flat-footed slugging fight against Herman, had no excuses for failing to score a knockout, calling Herman a "good game boy who can take a good punch."
But his manager, Willie Ketchum, revealed for the first time that Car-
The squash-nosed better from Long Island had plenty of frustration to take out on the hapless Los Angeles club fighter in last night's bout. It was the second time Carter had trained himself to a peak for his rematch with DeMarco, only to have the fight postponed due to the champion's ailments.
But he said he expected to "get up" again "because the championship means more than anything to me."
discus. Jim Elliott of Wichita will join the squad following the basketball season as will Floerke.
ter fought the fight with a painfully sprained left ankle incurred in the gym last Saturday. He proved it by taking off Carter's shoe and sock and showing the ankle heavily swathed in adhesive tape.
Carter was winging for a knockout from the fourth round on, picking his spots and slamming the punches with all his weight to the head and body.
He missed many, possibly due to his bad ankle, but he landed enough to get the unanimous nod from the officials. Referee Jack Silver and one judge scored it $5\frac{1}{8}$ to $5\frac{1}{2}$ and the other judge called it 59-51.
Indianapolis Wins In League Playoffs
Indianapolis—U.P.)—The Indianapolis Indians, who opened with a 6-5 extra-inning victory, will send either Bob Kelly or Herb Score to touch tonight in an effort to make it two in a row over Louisville.
The Indians and Colonels duelled for 12 innings last night before the Tribe scored on an unearned run to take the first game of the final best-of-seven American association play-off series. Cold weather held the attendance to 1,968.
