Injury May Keep
Ewell From AAU
Fray Saturday
Cut from competition in Satur
day's NCAA meet in Lincoln,
Neb., by a pulled muscle suffered
as he stepped over the takeoff
board in a broad jump trial, Bar
_'ney Ewell's' condition was still
questionable yesterday as he made
-the trip from Lincoln with Coach
Chick, Werner and Barney Pleiser,
the other Lion entry 'in the meet.
Unless the injury, considered
rather serious immediately after
6_ it happened Friday afternoon,
heals quickly, the Lion flash will
be unable to compete in the Na
tional AAU meet in NeW York
this Saturday, his last competi
tion before entering the Army. .
In the event that the injury
does not heat enough to let him
take part in this meet, he will
have lost all chance to show his
skill against Hal Davis, Univer
sity of California sprinter, and fo
try again to break the jinx of
'their two-year-old rivalry.
Davis, after Ewell's withdraw
al from the meet Saturday, easily
won both the sprint events which
were to be the "sprint of the cen
tury" as these two speed mer
chants battled it out for the next
to the last struggle of their col-,
lege careers.
If the Lion speed man can re
cover fully from his injury in time
to train some this week', he
probably give the westerner a
hard battle even though he will
be running under great odds. Odd
ly enough, this injury which may
mean so much to him, was Bar
ney's first, in his long track
career.
Repeating for the eighth year
in a row, Southern California ,cap
tured .team honors with 8." 1 / 4
points, followed by Ohio State
with 44. Individual honors went
to Davis arid • Bob Wright, Ohio
State, with two firsts each.
The only Eastern . titlist of the
meet was big Al Blozis, George
town, who took the shot put for
the third year in a row. Les Ape-
Mitchell, NYU distance man, rat
.ed as near the top among the
mile run contenders, drew his
first NCAA defeat as he took
_third in the - mile behind Bob Ginn,
Nebraska, and Leroy Wood, Cali
fornia.

vantage over the South by virtue
of a win over the South in the

tition and trying out at shortstop
where Whitey Thomas has a vir
tual monopoly. Gene Sutherland
has good chances at third, while
