Records Should Fall At Big Seven Meet
By RICHARD DILSAVER
Added attraction is a great duel in the mile run between Kansas' own Bob Karnes and red-hot Bill McGuire of Missouri.
Only decent weather will be needed to make the 1950 Big Seven outdoor track and field meet at Lincoln today and Saturday the best in the history of the conference. Spectators at the 22nd annual league meet will probably see the biggest scramble ever for the championship, the finest field of athletes in years, and record making at every turn
Kansas, surprise winner of the league indoor title the past winter, is in the running for the championship
with defending champion Missouri Nebraska, and Kansas State. The big question as to the Jayhawkers winning game at Colorado Easton's ace fleet of distance runners get enough points to offset a glaring lack of strength in the field?
K. U. hopes dimmed Thursday when Coach Easton and a 17-man squad left for the meet without senior javelin thrower Bob Drumm, considered a sure point getter. Drumm was left behind because of a sore throwing arm.
All-around strength should tell the winner with the scoring based on a 10-8-6-4-2-1 basis for six places in each event. And that seems to be the prime qualification of the Missouri Tigers.
Coach Tom Botts' Mizzou team is after its fourth consecutive title. The balance his team possesses makes it the No. 1 choice to win this year.
Nebraska and Kansas State fall into the roles of darkhorses. The Huskers are like Missouri, balanced but don't have quite as much power. Kansas State will base its hopes on a Class AAA list of field men who could sweep every event in the field but the pole vault, along with added strength in hurdles Earl Elliott and Ji Faubion and dashman Lod Trolio.
Colorado and Oklahoma are expected to score well but lack enough strength to best any of the title contenders. Iowa State appears destined to bring up the rear.
The mile duel between Karnes and McGuire has all the makings of a true thriller. In 11 meetings previous to their get-together in a dual meet a week ago, the Jayhawker captain had topped McGuire 10 times. Then the Missouriian held off Karnes in a tingling sprint over the backstretch the past Saturday to win in 4:10.7—the fastest collegiate mile in the nation during 1950. The winner Saturday should be forced into a new record. The present mark, set by Kansas' immortal Glenn Cunningham in 1932, is 4:14.3. Karnes has won the race the past two league meets.

880-yard run, and he rates a good chance to go below Cunningham's record of 1.52.2. Bowers was just one-tenth of a second off that a week ago at Missouri.
Two sophomores are included in Kansas hopes for individual victories. Herb Semper will be out to win the two-mile run, despite the fact McGuire is favored because of a great 19:16 in a blizzard at the Drake Relays. The Missourian's time is the best recorded in the nation for the distance this year, but Semper isn't far back at 19:20. Whoever wins should get a new record, the present mark being 19:29. Karnes, winner of the event the past three years, will not defend his title. He will, however, run the half-mile in addition to the mile.
Making his first start in a Big Seven outdoor meet along with Semper is Jayhawker Bob Devinney who rates an even chance to win the 220-yard dash.
Final Jayhawker hope for an individual win is hurder Jack Greenwood. Although his best chance seems to be in the lows, the 1949 second-place winner could also annex the high-stick title.

Quigley Attends Directors Meet
E. C. Quigley, K.U.'s director of athletics, left early Thursday morning to attend the annual Big Seven meeting of athletic directors and faculty representatives held at the University of Nebraska. Conveniently scheduled to coincide with the Big Seven conference track meet at Lincoln Friday and Saturday, the group meets yearly to discuss pertinent events in the year's athletic program.
Schedules will be made out for next year's baseball program as well as for certain minor sports such as swimming and tennis. Any needed changes in the Big Seven plans will be discussed and each school will present its views on events of the past year. Mr. Quigley will return after the track meet Saturday.
