Track Frosh Win Two; Jones High-Point Man
Bettering two Big Seven freshman conference times, the University of Kansas fresh team dumped the University of Missouri first-year men, 79-25, in a dual posal track meet over the weekend.
KU defeated its ancient enemy to the east as the freshmen allowed Missouri only nine points in the running events while stacking up 59, and out-scoring the Tigers 20-16 in the field events.
The outstanding mark of the meet was the quarter-mile time posted by Willie Jones of Arma. Jones traveled the distance in 50.2 seconds to better the Big Seven conference time of 59.8 set by Busse of Colorado last year. However, it will not be an official conference mark until officials have put the time on the record book.
The mile relay quartet of Harry Solter, Larry Stroup, Louis Stroup, and Jones, bettered the existing Big Seven conference indoor relay mark of 3:28.4 set by Oklahoma in 1953. Its time for the event was 3:26.7. Both the relay time and the quarter mark are also new KU freshman indoor records.
Mike Swanson, Corky Eggert, and Bernie Gay, tightened their holds on their special races, as Missouri was able to get only one point in the half mile, and was shut out in the mile. and 2-mile.
Jones took top scoring honors for the meet with 13j points, followed very closely by Swanson who had 13 points.

Don Newcombe displayed an overpowering fast ball and a slender waistline in his opening workout to appear today to be the big pitch, so he would have to offset the major deals made by their four chief National league rivals.
Newcombe, returning from a two-year hit in the Army, looked as fast as ever when he cut loose in yesterday's workout. So hard did Newcombe throw that he drew a warning from trainer Harold Wendler not to overdo things too early in training.
Newcombe, who sometimes ballooned to 250 pounds during the season, surprised rookie Manager Walt Alston by tipping the scales at a mere 231. He explained he was determined to report to camp at normal pitching weight in order to get off to a fast start.
Newcombe's ability to recapture the form that made him a 20-game winner in 1951 could well be the key to Brooklyn's fortunes. The Milwaukee Braves, St. Louis Cardinals, Philadelphia Phillies, and New York Giants all acquired frontline strength via player deals but the Dodgers remained pat on the theory that Newcombe's return will add all the strength they require.
Alston received a second pleasant surprise when catcher Roy Campanella, the league's most valuable player in 1953, reported at 189 pounds—10 lower than usual. He said he expected to build back gradually to 200 at which figure he plans to open the season.
Vic Raschi, meanwhile, occupied center stage at St. Petersburg, Fla., where he donned a uniform of the St. Louis Cardinals for the first time. Raschi, acquired from the New York Yankees in a $100,000 deal, said he would "do my darnest" to win the 12 or 16 games pegged for him by Manager Eddie Stanky.
Manager Lou Boudreau personally supervised Ted Lepcio and Billy Consolo as a double play combination, stimulating speculation that he may open the season with them (a capacity) Goodman and Milk Boy Box finished the 1953 season as the Red Sox' double play combination.
Manager Bucky Harris of the Washington Senators indicated that he is interested in swinging a deal for a righthanded pitcher. The Senators have only two front-line right-handers.
NCAA Tourney Sites Are Set
Kansas City —(U.P.)— A series of rapid-fire announcements of pairings and sites today virtually completed the schedule of first round play in the national collegiate basketball tournament.
A. C. (Dutch) Lonborg, chairman of the NCAA basketball tournament committee, made the announcements.
They followed selection yesterday of Santa Clara and Loyola of New Orleans as the latest at-large teams for the 24-team tournament.
Lonborg announced that the Buffalo auditorium, Buffalo, NY, will be the site of a doubleheader March 8 matching Navy against the New England conference champion, and Fordham against LaSalle, the Middle Atlantic conference winner.
He said Notre Dame will meet Loyola of New Orleans and Toledo, winner of the Mid-American conference, will play an at-large team, yet to be selected, in another first round doubleheader March 9 at Fort Wayne, Ind.
The William Neal Reynolds coliseum, Raleigh, N.C. will be the site of another first round game March 9 pairing the Atlantic Coast and Southern conference winners, Lonborg said.
However, both Atlantic Coast and Southern conference representatives will be decided by special league tournaments.

Broncos, Loyola Selected For NCAA Tournament
New York —(U.P.)— Santa Clara and Loyola of the south moved into the "promised land" of the NCAA basketball tournament today, but the expected entry of the Oklahoma Aggies was postponed because of their upset by Wichita on a last-minute goal.
Santa Clara (18-5) and Loyola (15-7) both were selected for the tourney as "members at large," the NCAA's term for independent teams. That leaves only one independent berth open in that big court carnival.
The Broncos of Santa Clara, appearing in the tourney for the third straight year, will compete in the Western division in a first-round game against the Border conference champion, yet undetermined but probably Texas Tech. Loyola, appearing for the first time, will compete in the regional at Fort Wayne, Ind., where their rival—Notre Dame, Toledo, or the unselected independent team—will be picked by a coin toss.
The Oklahoma Aggies were all set to wrap up the Missouri Valley conference title and with it an NCAA berth last night when they
were beaten on their home court by Wichita. 67-66.
It was the final league game for second-place Wichita, which has an 8-2 league mark. The Aggies still can clinch the title by beating Tulsa March 2 or St. Louis March 6, and will be heavily favored to beat both.
It was a spectacular one-hand shot it. It played the Paul Scherer from 30 feet or with only seven seconds to play that beat the Aggies, their first league loss in eight games. With 20 seconds to go, Freddie Babb had put the Aggies in front, 66-65, on a pair of free throws. The close battle had seen the score tied 12 times and the lead change hands 13 times.
Holy Cross, ranked sixth nationally by the United Press board of coaches, scored its 22nd win in 23 games last night by 76-60 over Dartmouth.
In other leading games last night: Louisville, bound for the National Invitation tournament, edged pass Xavier (Ohio), 59-55; Army shaded Rutgers, 68-61; Brown defeated Harvard, 75-61; Temple downed Muhlenberg, 76-55; Yale be aat Trinity, 75-66; and Houston nicked the Texas Aggies, 52-51.
