Eleven Meet Records Smashed
As Buckeyes Top Lions, 76-46
Still licking its wounds from the 76-46 lacing handed to it by
Ohio State Saturday afternoon, the' Lion track team is concentrating
on field events this week for the ensuing battle with Michigan State.
Jack Dianetti is the Spartans' standout in the middle distance
races while' Fred Johnson, who holds the Michigan State field house
record of 24 feet, 8 3 / 4 inches for the broad jump, leads the field
contenders.
Eleven out of fourteen meet
records were wiped from the
books in Saturday's battle as
Lloyd Duff, decathlon performer,
hiked the pole vault record 6
inches, lengthened the broad
jump mark by one foot, 6 1 / 2
inches and sliced :1.1 seconds
from his former 120 high hurdle
mark.
Duff's time in the hurdles was
just two tenths of a second short
of the world record.
The Nittany runners did their
share of record breaking with
Jerry Karver pulling the meet
record mark for the mile down
nine and 9/10 seconds, and Dave
Pincus boosting the meet and
Penn State mark for the discus
from 147 feet, 10 1 / 2 inches to 151
feet, 3 / 4 inches.
Jim Gehrdes, after being nosed
out by Duff in the high hurdles,
retaliated by smashing the meet
and College record in the low
hurdles.
Even though he ran his slow
est two-mile race of the year,
Horace Ashenfelter cracked the
meet record of 9 minutes, 50 sec
onds and lowered it almost 10
seconds.
The Wernermen's one mile
relay team, which has yet to win
in the baton run, placed far be
hind a speedy Ohio State team
which won the relay in a scorch
ing 3:17.9:
AAU champ Mal Whitfield
outstrided. Bill Shuman in the
880 yard run for another meet
record, while Buckeye flash Fred
Johnson copped the 100 and 220
yard dashes, but could not touch
the :9.6 and :20.8-second marks
set by Barney Ewell in 1940.
By- winning the 880 yard run,
Mal Whitfield scored his 28th
consecutive victory in the half
mile race. The Buckeye runner
is listed as one of the top U.S.
Jeffreymen
Show Progress
Although veteran soccer coach
Bill Jeffrey is busy refereeing in
tramural soccer games on the
golf course practice fields, the
Lion booters have displayed
steady progress since spring
training started four weeks ago.
The booting Jeffreymen will be
exceptionally strong defensively
this fall, having four lettermen
back to fill fullback slots.
All four—Jim Klines, Frank
Taucher, Dave Binns and Chuck
Margolf saw considerabl e action
in front of the Lions' goal last
year and the "friendly Scot" de
pends on them greatly this year
to keep the opponents from
breaking into scoring positions.
Guarding the nets this year are
two very promising reserves from
last year's booting aggregation,
Ed Watson, a lanky goaltender
who shows plenty of promise, and
husky Jim Doman, varsity goalie
of the 1945 soccer Lions.
