UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN, LAWRENCE, KANSAS TUESDAY, JANUARY 3, 1950 PAGE FOUR Pat Bowers Wins Half-Mile Event In Sugar Bowl K. U.'s track star Pat Bowers established a new record in the half mile event of the Sugar bowl invitational track meet. His time was 1:53, four-fifths of a second better than the old record. The meet, held at New Orleans in conjunction with the annual Sugar bowl football game, was run Jan. 1. Along with this his highest achievement Bowers holds the national junior A.A.U. 800-meter title and the Big Seven championship. Bowers ran a near perfect race catching up at the first turn with Ray Holbrook of Texas A & M who got the early lead. Remaining in command the rest of the way Bowers was timed at the quarter in 55 seconds. As he went into the backstretch on the final lap the Jayhawker began to pull away with his easy-flowing strides and finished eight yards in front of Holbrook. L. diBenedetto, chairman of the Sugar bowl track event, said it was the fastest half mile ever run in the South to the best of his memory. Bowers' record was one of four that were set in the meet. The three others were in the 120-yard high hurdles, the 100-vard dash, and the mile relay. Out of the five-event meet only Glenn Cunningham's record of 4:10.7 in the mile, established in 1939, remained unbreak- KU.'s other entry in the Sugar bowl meet, Jack Greenwood, got off to a bad start in the high hurdles and finished last in the five-man field.
