RECORD VAULT—Floyd Manning, Jayhawk pole vaulter, is shown as he clears 15-8 $ \frac{1}{2} $ to set a new Allen Field House record in Friday night's meet with Oklahoma.
Track Team Wins: Records Fall
Three records fell and three others were tied Friday night as Coach Bill Easton's indoor track team defeated Oklahoma, 66-56.
Jayhawk pole vaulter Floyd Manning jumped 15-8 $ \frac{1}{2} $ for a new Allen Fieldhouse and KU record. Manning then missed three tries at 16 feet.
"I felt very good tonight," Manning said. "I had a shin splint earlier in the week and hadn't jumped for three days. The leg didn't bother me a bit tonight."
Before the meet, Manning said he expected he would have to be up for the competition in order to set a record or win the meet.
For the third consecutive week, high jumper Tyce Smith set a new Fieldhouse record. His latest record is 6-8$^{3/4}$. Last week, Smith jumped 6-8$^{1/2}$ and the week before, 6-8$^{1/4}$.
Smith said he was "not really feeling well" during his record-breaking evening.
"I didn't really feel," Smith said,
"that I had my timing right. I
didn't think I would go that high."
The Sooners' Walt Mizell turned in a time of 1:53.5 in the half mile. That time broke a record of 1:54.4 set by Southern Illinois' Jim Dupree in a meet last year.
Records were tied in the 60-yard high hurdles, the mile relay and the 1000 yard run.
In the 60-yard highs, Mike Hewitt set a mark of 07.4 to tie a record set in 1960 and equaled in 1961.
In the 1000, the Jayhawks' Herold Hadley ran 2:14 to tie a mark set by Kirk Hagan in 1961.
Before the meet with the Sooners, Bill Easton, Jayhawk head track coach said he expected the Oklahoma meet to be one of the top meets on the KU indoor schedule. He said he thought the meet would serve as an indicator of the strength of the Jayhawks in comparison with the other indoor teams in the Big-Eight Conference.

The Jayhawks beat the Sooners without the help of Bob Hanson, one of the top short distance runners in the conference. Hanson was forced to sit out of the meet with a slight muscle pull. He is expected to return to action for the KU-Oklahoma State-Kansas State tri-
