Expect Fight To Finish In KU-Cornhusker Meet
The Kansas Jayhawker track team will be host to the Cornhuskers from Nebraska in a dual meet at 2 p.m. Saturday.
The meet will be a final tune-up for both teams as they prepare for the Kansas Relays April 17, and it should a battle right down to the mile relay, as both teams are evenly matched.
The Cornhuskers defeated the K. U. thinclads in an indoor meet at Lincoln Feb. 23 by a score of 68 to 36. In that meet the Jayhawkers domiated the distance races while Nebraska swept the dashes, hurdles, and the pole vault.
Ton Pole Vaulter
Averaska has one of the nations better pole vaulters in Don Cooper, who has cleared over 14 feet this year. The blond cloud kicker tied for first in the Big Seven indoor meet in Kansas City with a vault of only 12 feet 11 inches, but he cleared 14 feet 1 inch against K. U. in an indoor duel meet.
Dick Hutton, who was a seat back on the Nebraska football team, will be expected to grab firsts in the 100 and 220-yard dashes. Coach Easton's squad is lacking in a good sprinters and hurdlers and will lose the most points in those two events. Monte Kinder, can be expected to place in the high jump for the Huskers. He jumped 6 feet, 4 inches against K. U. K U Exceptions Firsts
K. U. can expect firsts and seconds from Bob Karnes and Hal Moore in the distance runs, Tom Scofield in the high jump, Dick Shea in the 880, and Bob Crowley in the broad jump.
Also Coach Easton hopes that four men who have been out for spring football will add to the K. U. total. These men are Ed Lee, shot put; Bob Drumm, javelin; Delvin Norris, high jump; and Darell Norris, pole vault.
Herman Wilson, who has been nursing an injured ankle for two months, will return to action this week. Wilson was expected to be the number one valunter this season, but sprained his ankle in an indoor meet with Missouri early in the season, and has been out of competition since that meet.
To Stop Co-Awards For IM Division Ties
If there is a first-place tie in any intramural sport the team going farthest in the playoffs will be awarded the division championship trophy, Don Powell, intramural head, said today.
The trophy will be presented to the team defeating the other in league play if they again tie in the plavoffs. Powell said.
"During basketball season the Phi Delt's and Sig Alph's tied for their division title and both teams were awarded trophies. This will not be done again," Powell said.
Oil Derrick Rolls Through
On Purposely Flat Tires
Cleveland,—(UF)—A simple operation enable Erie Railroad engineers to push through a too-high freight shipment. When they discovered that a mobile oil derrick on a train would fail to clear two overhead bridges by an inch, they solved the problem by deflating the derrick's tires and came out with a half-inch to spare.
Mission Buildings Remain
Pierre, S. D.—(UP)—Ninety-three Catholic churches and chapels stand on the seven South Dakota Indian reservations as lonely sentinels of 108 years of missionary work among the Sioux. The churches serve 12,836 Catholics among an Indian population of about 27,000.

St. Anthony, Idaho—(UP)—Lorin Campbell traded one of his best cows for a year's subscription to a local weekly newspaper. The cow had died and Campbell just got enough for her from an animal products company to pay his subscription. So he handed over the check to the Teton Peak-Chronicle.
