KUTakes Third In Big Seven Indoor Meet
By ART SCHAAF
A brilliant, record-smashing two-mile run by Herb Semper; a pair of determined hurdles victories by Jack Greenwood; and an upset mile-relay triumph by the K.U. foursome of Emil Schutzel, Rollie Cain, Don Smith, and Jim Hershberger highlighted the Big Seven indoor championships for Kansas fans in Kansas City's municipal auditorium Saturday night.
Cliff Abel took second place behind Missouri's Bill McGuire in the mile run; Keith Palmquist won third in the two-mile; Dave Fisher coped fourth in the half-mile; and Jim Floyd added a point on a three-way tie for fourth in the pole vault to account for Kansas' 30 points in the meet—good for a third place team finish.
The Wildcats scored 25½ points, one-half point more than the Sooners were able to acquire. Colorado notched 18½, and Iowa State three
The Nebraska Cornhuskers put together $40_{1/2}^{1}$ points to claim the league championship. Favored Missouri scored $37_{1/2}^{2}$ for second place. The Sooners of Oklahoma, who figured high in pre-meet prognostication, finished a disappointing fifth behind Kansas State.
The Jayhawkers were defending champions in the 23rd running of the annual two-day affair, but this year they were generally relegated to fourth place or lower on the premeet form sheets. Coach Bill Easton, though, got almost maximum performances from his out-manned squad.
"We garnered practically every point available to us in that meet." Easton said. "We lost Jim Dinsmore, though, in the 880 when he was disqualified for moving from the third
to the second lane, and that cost us points. The highlights of the meet to me, of course were Semper's great two-mile, and Greenwood's double win in the hurdles," Easton said.
Greenwood fulfilled a vow made earlier in the week to teammates when he became the evening's only twin-titlist with determined victories in both the high and low hurdles. He ripped .6.9 in the 60-yard
lows, and -07.5 in the highs, both just a tenth of a second slower than existing league records, but both the top performances ever turned in by a Kansas hurler indoors.
Semper had the distinction of being one of only two record breakers in the meet. Kansas State's Herb Hoskins authored the meet's only other record with a 24 feet, $74\frac{1}{4}$ inch broad jump. He erased a mark which Iowa State's Norman Pederson had held since 1946.
Semper's time for the two-mile was 9:11.3 and knocked 15.1 seconds off his own record of 9:26.4 which he established as a sophomore last year. The springy red-head spurred to the front of the field at the start of the race and he held that position

the rest of the way. He gradually pulled away from the field and after the tenth lap he was fifteen yards ahead of his nearest rival, Bob Fox of Missouri.
When the race was over he had lapped all but Fox, and he beat him by three-quarters of a lap—more than 100 yards. The auditorium fans, some 6,000 plus, cheered his magnificent performance through the final two laps.
The Jayhawkers victorious mile relay team won an automatic invitation to the Chicago Daily News Relays to be held Saturday, Mar. 17 with their surprising win. The Jayhawkers go to Chicago as the Big Seven's representative in that event.
The Kansas relay victory was aided by an Oklahoma bad break. With the Sooners leading by a step in the third leg of the heat, Charlie Coleman dropped out of the race with a pulled muscle which wrote finis to his team's relay efforts.
The Kansans then went on to win that heat handily in 3:24.2. In the Missouri-Nebraska heat the best the Tigers could do was 3:26.2 for second place.
Kansas outscored all opponents in the running events with a 29-point total compared with Missouri's 28, and Nebraska's 21. The Jayhawks, though, were snowed under in the field where they scored only one point. The champion Cornhuskers picked up $19_{1/2}$ points in the field events.

Beta's Win Intramural Hill Cage Championships
By ALAN MARSHALL

Daily Kansan Assistant Sports Editor
Beta Theta Pi remains supreme in intramural basketball on the strength of victories in both the "A" and "B" all-University championship games played Sunday night in Robinson annex. The fraternity "A" winners came from behind in the third quarter to earn a 28 to 26 decision over the Dark Horses, independent "A" titlists. Jim Beam's Dream Team was no match for the Beta "B" squad, as the latter took an easy 36 to 24 win.
latter took an easy 50 to 24. Thus the Beta's senior team ended the successful defense of the title they won last year, also against the Dark Horses, to extend their undefeated string to 22 straight games.
During the two years of their existence, the Dark Horses have lost only two games, both to the Beta's in Hill "A" championship games. The Beta club led all the way in the 1950 contest to edge past the battling Dark Horses, 37 to 34.
This year's game was much closer with the Beta's trailing 10 to 14 at halftime and being forced to come from behind during the final 14 minutes for their championship victory.
BETA "A" 28, DARK HORSES 26 Superior Beta manpower made the difference in a rough-and-tumble contest which, despite the low number of fouls called, saw temperatures several times. Using only five men, the Dark Horses were unable to keep pace and lost their lead after three minutes of the third quarter, never again to regain it.
The well-rounded Beta scoring attack was led by center Jerry Brownlee who scored seven points

on two field goals and three out of five at the charity line. Next in line came Capt. Jack Winter and Joe Mendenhan with six counters apice.
Chuck O'Neal, Dark Horse guard, took scoring honors for the game with nine points on three buckets and an unconvincing three out of seven free throws. Odd Williams hit four fielders for a total of eight.
The first quarter saw William pull his team into a quick lead with three push shots from 20 feet out none of which so much as touched the rim. Winter and Brownlee each hit tone of two free tosses as the peril ended at 6 to 2 for the Darl Horses.
Jim Floyd relieved Wally Altman, Beta guard, and promptly popped in a one-handed shot shot and Winter followed suit with another long push. Dick Tomlinson, rugged Dark Horse center, hit an easy lay-in to scoot his team out in front by a score of 12 to 8.
Brownlee hit a pair of free throws which O'Neal soon nullified with a shot from the right-hand corner with only two seconds left to make the score 14 to 10 at half-time.
The pace quickened in the next stanza as Bill Champion took the tip and drove in for a set-up to score the first Beta field goal. Press Wilson and O'Neal each hit from out for the Dark Horses to make it 10 to 4.
With 1:15 gone in the last period, the Beta's had a four point lead on Champion's free throw and Mendenhall's jump shot from close in. O'Neal and Tomlinson each got a charity toss before Altman hit a 15 foot push shot to make it 28 to 24. Beta. Two minutes and 20 seconds remained when O'Neal hit from the corner to make the score 28 to 26 which proved to be the final count.

The Beta "B" team had little trouble subduing the independent "B" champion Jim Beam quintet. The losers led during the first minute of the game on Hugh Kreamer's free throw. But when Beta forward John Strawn hit a jump shot from the free throw line the eventual winners took a lead they never relinquished.
The Beta's went into a "deep freeze" after getting the ball out of bounds with 1:15 minutes remaining and the Dark Horses never again touched the priceless sphere.
Keith Wolfenbarger and Charley Oswald, both on the Jim Beam five, tied for scoring honors with eight points apiece. Neil McNeill led the Beta's with eight counters while Strawn hit three fielders and a free toss.
The Beta's worked fast with all five starters scoring to make the first quarter score 13 to 5. At this point, however, they settled back and watched the Beam's add a goal here and there to run the score up to 13 to 12 with 2:15 left in the half.
The Beam's called a time-out to catch their breath in an attempt to take over the lead, but when play resumed they stood by helplessly as the fraternity "B" champions hit four quick fielders to make the score 21 to 14 at halftime.
The Jim team's made another bid for the lead during the third quarter. By outscoring the Beta's six to four, they once again moved within
