Schenk Garners Second Medal Sapporo, Japan (UPl) Towering Ard Schenk of Holland scored the first gold medal doirf)le in the XI Winter Olympic games Sunday when he darted across the finish line in the l.SOO^eter speed skating race in an Olympic record time of two minutes, 0 2:96 seconds. Japan, unusually strong in the jumpwig events, won its first medals of 1972 games with a clean sweep in tte 76-meter ski and Russia finished one-two in the 10- kilometer cross country ski race won by Galina Koulacova. Schenk, the reigning world champion, was gunning for a jackpot of four gold medals before the games opened. He won the competition Friday, but fell while trying for a double in the 500- meter sprint, considered his weakest event. The 27 year-old Schenk regained his form Sunday as he bettered the old Olympic mark of 2:03.44 set by countryman Comelis Verkerk at Grenoble in 1066.

Roar Gronvold of Norway picked up his second silver medal with a second pace finish in 2:04.26 and Goran Glaesson of Sweden took the bronze in 2:06.89. Japan had a shot at winning the combined Nordic when Hideki Naikano won the jumping phase but he finished far back in the cross country segment. Tbis time the host Japanese be denied as they tock the gold, silver and bronze medals in the 70- meter competition. Yukio Kasay, a 28-year-old whiskey distillery employe, made two near-perfect jumps as he soared 275 in. and 259 in.

for a point score of 244.2 an unusually high total in an Olympic jumping test. Akistugu Konno had 234.8 points on jumps of 271 and 259 in. and Seiji Aochi had 229.5 points on leaps of 272 in. and 253 in. Miss Koulacova, a 29-year-old schoolteacher, shouted that Russia was on top of the world as she beat teammate Alevitina Olunina in the 10-kilometer (6.2 mile) cross country ski trip.

Schenk now is aiming for a three-medal and if he wins event he will equal the three speed skating gold medals won by Hjalmar Anderson of Norway in the 1952 Olympics.

Colorado led by three to one in the record-setting department, but Nebraska extended its dual track winning string here Saturday afternoon with a 6449 triumph over the Buffs. The Huskcrs lost an indoor dnal meet since Colorado scored a win over them here during the 1968 season. Four Folsom Fieldhouse records were set along with two meet marks and one world record was equalled with Leighton Priestley the only Husker sharing in the record- setting.

48.1 In winning the 440 by one-half second over George Daniels wiped out the fieldhouse mark of 48.4 set by Daniels a year ago, Daniels equalled the world record with a 5.9 in the 60-yard dash, a time that erased his and Clifford record of 6.0 set a year ago as the Folsom Fieldhouse standard. Branch was late in arriving for the meet after running in Toronto Friday night and mhised the 60 Saturday, but finished third in the 440. Horace Levy was only one-tenth of a second back 9nnftac Jiiuni9l spourm 9tsf in Is tif 8 Pages, Lincoln, Nebra.ska Feb. 6, 1972, Page 1 of Daniels in the 60 with a 6.0 clocking to edge the Larry Branson by another tenth of a second. Other fieldhouse records falling were in the high jump where Mark Mounsey who went 6-9, and the 60-yard high hurdles with Mike Hill running a 7.2.

Husker Randy Butts was just a shade behind Hill and also was clocked in 7.2. Garth Case in winning the 600-yard run in 1:11.2 was only one-tenth of a second off the fieldhouse record. The run was not counted in the final score after a mistake at the finish line resulted hi the gun for the final lap sounding at the same time the finish string was stretched across the track.

Nebraska (Priestley, Leonard, Givens, Case), Doane Hands Wesleyan First NIAC Loss, 71-57 Tom Lotko (top) has Loren Van Treese of Southern Illinois in trouble in their 150-pound match Saturday night. Story, Page 3C By STEVE GILLISPIE Crete Defending champion Doane has climbed back into the Nebraska Intercollegiate Athletic basketball race. The Tigers knocked Nebraska Wesleyan out of the unbeaten ranks in conference play with a 71-57 win here Saturday night at Fahrer Fieldhouse.

NIAC record is now 3-1 while the Plainsmen are 4-1. Guard Phil Whatley and Alfredo Mayers led the Tigers by not only scoring well but also setting up 7-0 Bernard Brown and 6-9 i 1 i Douglas. In fact, Doane coach Bob Erickson credits play towards the end of the first half as the turning point in the game. The Tigers went into a half-court tohp trap and Mayers stole the ball twice. He scored both times off the steals which pushed Doane to a 39-31 halftime lead and NWU never recovered.

Up to that point neither team was able to maintain a lead even though the Tigers got off to a 5-0 advantage. But Wesleyan gave an early indication of coming back by missing the first four field goals but getting the rebound each time. John basket with 15:49 left in the first half tied the score, 5-aIl, for the Plainsmen and then the two teams played on almost even terms until the 2:36 mark. Then Whatley hit one basket and set up Herbert Cousins for another before Mayers stole the ball twice. Prior to fielder, Doane was only leading 31-29.

The halftime statistics showed the teams played about even ball in the first half, except at the free throw line where the Tigers made nine of 10 but NWU only three of 10. The other halftime statistics were the Plainsmen 14 of 31 from the field compared to 15 of 30 for Doane and the Tigers grabbing 22 rebounds to 18 for NWU. Poor field goal shooting in the second half ruined any chance for comeback. The Plainsmen only made 10 of 32 field goals wWle Doane sank 10 of 23. The Tigers upped their margin to 51-37, their largest lead of the game, before NWU battled back.

Doane turned the ball over three straight times and went over three minutes without scoring but the Plainsmen only scored four points. Then the Tigers scored five consecutive points, padding their lead to 15 and Wesleyan stayed that far behind the rest of the game. Douglas led Doane with 19 points and 12 rebounds while Wliatley added 17 points and Mayers 14. Brown had eight points and 10 rebounds. Reidell Lintz paced NWU witfi 19 points with Dick French scoring 11 and John Strain and Lyle Hiatt each getting 10.
