Nebraska Wins Big Six
SPORTSCOPE
By Larry Winn
(Written Saturday Afternoon)
With a soggy track, the Big Six meet at Lincoln got under way yesterday afternoon, with the qualifying trials in ten events. Nebraska, the premeet favorite, qualified 19 men, Kansas State 18, Oklahoma 14, Missouri 11, Iowa State 9, and Kansas 6.
For the Jayhawkers, Darrell Mathes qualified in both the 100 and 220-yard dashes. Glenn Foy came through with a 25.1 performance in the 220-yard low hurdles, and Don Thompson placed in the half-mile. J. R. Jones was one of the 10 qualifiers in the broad jump, but the Jayhawker was not up to par in the qualifying heats. Maybe he'll do better this afternoon. The last Kansas man to qualify was Carty Dawes, who placed in the inavel throw.
MARVIN BREUER finally came through for the Yankees, when he pitched five-hit ball to down the Chicago White Sox, 6 to 1, yesterday. Breuer pitched for the Kansas City Blues last year and moved up to the major leagues early this year.
In the Central Conference track meet Friday afternoon at Emporia, Pittsburg Teachers came down the stretch easy winners with 88 points. Walt Revell was the star of the meet, when he broke the 14.8 high hurdles record, running them in 14.7, and tying his own low hurdle record of 23.6.
The Oklahoma Sooners, already assured of the 1940 Big Six baseball championship, added to their victory string Friday, when they whitewashed the Nebraska Cornhuskers, 6 to 0.
George Stirmweiss, North Carolina halfback and also leading hitter on the baseball team, will get a trial with Durham of the Piedmont league after his graduation. Durham is a Cincinnati Reds affiliate.
ALL - AMERICAN QUARTERBACK, PAUL CHRISTMAN, and first baseman for Missouri was reported to have been offered a contract with the St. Louis Browns. The Brown's scout said, "If Paul isn't a big league prospect, then I have never seen one." (Just a note to the scout: You have never seen one then. Christman only batted 279 last year, and if that is big league material, then I'm wrong.)
Apologies, orchids, and everything else they want, to the Sigma Nu's for not mentioning them as one of the teams to watch in the baseball playoffs, when I listed a few of the better teams in my column a few days back.
Dr. E. R. Elbel and Harold Johnson, the brains behind the K.U. intramural program, are pulling their hair because of the bad weather that has put them far behind in their schedule. The softball play-offs were scheduled to start last Friday afternoon, but no telling how long they will have to wait on the weather.
Jayhawks Fifth; Harris Retains Two-Mile Title
Lincoln, May 18—(UP)—A strong Nebraska Cornhusker cinder team won the Big Six track title here today by garnering 58 1-10 points in poor weather and on a slow track. Second to the Huskers came the Oklahoma Sooners with 49 points. Kansas State was next with 38 6-10, Missouri 35 2-10, and then Kansas with 23 points. Iowa State took cellar position with only 21 1-10.
Three records were broken in the course of events, the discus and javelin marks falling by the wayside today while the 220-yard dash record fell Friday afternoon in the qualifying heats. George Koettel, Oklahoma, ran the furlong Friday in 21.3 to smash the mark held by Ed Hall, Kansas, of 21.4 set in 1934. Herb Grote, Nebraska, threw the javelin 216 feet 4 inches, to break the record held by Herrington, Kansas, of 208 feet 1 inches set in 1934.
Ed Wibbels, Nebraska, smashed the discus record, when he sailed the platter 160 feet, $ \frac{5}{2} $ inches to crack Thornhill's mark of 155 feet 11 inches set in 1930. Thornhill was also from Kansas.

Stan Hack To Be Back In Uniform Today
New York, May 18—(UF)—Stan Hack, Chicago Cub's third baseman, struck on the head by a line drive in yesterday's game with the Giants, will be back in uniform tomorrow.
On third basc at the time, Hack was hit by a line foul off the bat of teammate Hank Leiber and was carried from the field. An examination at Polyclinic hospital disclosed that the injury was not serious.
Hack is expected to play Monday.

Jayhawks and Tigers Meet On Diamond
It will be the Tiger against the Jayhawk again tomorrow afternoon as Missouri and Kansas renew their age-old feud on the baseball diamond.
"Red" Dugan, who allowed the Tigers only three hits but suffered a heart breaking 1 to 0 defeat just a year ago, will attempt to cast another magic spell over the Missouri batters in the series opener. He will probably be opposed by Carl Miles, Bengal ace, who was the winning but not the finishing pitcher against the Jayhawks in Columbia earlier this spring.
At the beginning of the season, experts picked the Tigers to claw it out with the Oklahoma Sooners for the Big Six championship, and although the Missouri team was too inexperienced to live up to advance predictions, it is sure of finishing in third place.
Visions of the great Oklahoma nine are still fresh in the minds of Kan-
