Records Set in 23rd
M
By RAY HOLBROOK
A crowd of 12,000 fans looked
on as three records fell in the
university division of the 23rd an
nual Texas Relays last Saturday.
Rice’s mil§ relay, Kansas U. 4-
mile relay, and two unknown hijjh
jumpers, Jack Razzetto of San
'Diego State and Virgil Sevcrns
of Kansas State, were the record
breakers.- and shared the spot
light of thb meet with Pat Bovvers,
Kansas senior, who was named the
outstanding performer of the meet.
Rice’s mile relay team of Jim
Hoff, Jack Hudgins, Red Brown/
and Tom Cox clipped off a 3:14.5
to break Texas A&M’s record of
3:17.2 set In 1948. ,Cox ran a
great anchor lap to bring the
Owls from 3rd to 1st at the finish.
The Texas Aggies team composed
of Don Cardon, Buddy Shaeffef,
Bernard Place, and Don Mitchell,
^ran a 3:15 which broke the old
record, but ended up 4-yards back
in 3rd place.
New 4'-mile Record ■ 7
Kansas great 4-mile relay team
knocked 20 seconds off the old
record by running a 17.20.9. The
old record was 17:40.1 set by Ill
inois in 1929 and was the oldest
-record running 17-26, but J. D.
Hampton’s 4:14 anchor mile could
do no better than second. The
Cadet team consisted/of Jim Mc
Mahon, A>hn Germany, Julian Her
ring, and Hampton. j
■ The ace high jumpers, Razzetto
and Severns, both cleared 6’ 8 1/4”
to eclipse the .old record of &-
7 7/8” set by Boydstan of Okla
homa A&M in 1941. The pre-meet
favorites, Vern McGrew of Rice,
Jack Heintzman of Bradley, and
Bob Walters of Texas, 'tied for
third af 6’ 6”. Buddy. Davis and
Don Graves of the Aggies both
jumped 6’ 4”.
Bowers—Outstanding
• Pat Bowers, Kansas ace from
Chicago, was selected as the out
standing performer on the basis
of 3 relays in which lie ran, all
of which were won by Kansas. In
the distance l ' medley on Friday
Pat ran 3 laps'in 3:02.4. OFyitatur
' day he ran ihis mile on the record

1:62

half
breaking 4-mile relay in 4
then came back to anchor
mile relay to victory with
half. He was 3rd in the
meet last year, running the
mile.
Kadera Only Firs^
Big George Kadera provided
A&M with its only first
when he heaved the discluss
11” to beat out Rolling ~
of Kansas State by 10 feet,
earlier had placed third
shot with Prather’s winmi;
going 52’ 1/4”. This is
best discus toss of the year, but

year have been oyer 164 feeh.
The conference record isj 163 feet,
Tire Aggies only other showing
was' the 880-relay which pi teed
second behind the Texas team anjt-
chored by flying Charley Paiker.
