The KU freshman cross country team, by capturing the first four places, romped to the Big Seven frosh telegraphic championship, results from the five competing schools showed.
The little Jayhawks won with 10 points, to finish 24 ahead of runner-up Iowa State, which counted 34. Missouri was third with 53; Nebraska, fourth, 62, and Colorado, fifth, 72. Oklahoma and Kansas State did not enter teams.
Corky Egert of KU took first place over the two miles in 9:50, and his teammates Bernie Gay, Mike Swanson, and Lowell Janen took the next three spots in that order. Grant Cookson, the other Jayhawk entry who did not count in the scoring, took eleventh.
Missouri's Tom Fort was fifth, sixth was Bill Poehlong of Nebraska, and Dick Kerr of Iowa State, was seventh. The next three positions in the top 10 went to Iowa State.

Wes Santee's great 4:02.4 mile, run at Compton, Calif., last June 5. went into the record books yesterday as the fastest mile ever run by an American.
Santee's mark was one of six major outdoor track and field records written into the books by the Amateur Athletic union's 65th annual convention.
The AAU also honored Santee by establishing his 4:07.6 mile, run in the AAU championships at Dayton, Ohio, last June, as the official AAU championship record.
In other convention proceedings, the delegates voted to allow certain professionals to regain amateur status after a 5-year lapse; elected Louis G. Wilke of Bartlesville, Okla., president, and agreed to hold the 1954 convention at Miami Beach, Fla., Dec. 2-5.
