Sketches of Varsity Stars
Tlif. roach in urging men to come
out for track constantly meets the re
ply: "But I can't do anything. it
is this self-doubting that keeps many
potential stars from ever developing.
Add to this lack of confidence the
fact that the average American boy
has a ereat dread of "making a fool
of himself." and you have the whole
difficulty in a nut shell.
(Note: The fear of "looking fool
ish" eliminates itself as soon as the
squad reaches the normal in size.)
ihe following short sketches or
present day Varsity stirs will be of
general Interest, and in addition, they
will answer a lot of questions for the
self-doubters.
Some one or more of the following
men are looked to, to place Nebraska's
name on the roll of Uncle Sams
Olympic team this summer.
Byron McMahon, Track '18, '19
Byron McMahon, captain of this
year's University track team, has had
a rather interesting career. When he
began track work, he might have
been classed a dub. As he, with his
Irshman's sense of humor put it:
When I started out I guess I sure
was a dub. The coaches even con
sidered me hopeless, so I was later
told. My insteps and ankles bothered
me but work built them up. As I
look back now I guess that I nms
have run about like a bog-spavined
horse."
His older team-mates delight in de
scribing "Mac's" apearance when he
began training. His track history,
however, is worth reading.
In high school McMahon took no
part in track-he worked out a lew
times but never got into a meet
probably because he never trained
seriously.
As a University Freshman he be
gan quite regular work. He seems to
have specialized in ihe mile. His
best performance at least. as in that
event-about 5:10. His Sophomore
year he began to show some promise.
His best performance lor the yea
were the half in 2:01 in the Kansas
dual and ihe quarter in :52 in the
Ames dual.
Last year as a Junior McMahon
specialized in the 410. He won the
V:.!ley Conference quarter in :19 4 '
seconds. 3 mring the year he ran tin
luii in :10 1 T and the 220 in :22 4-;.
He i an anchor on Nebraska's prea:

Graf holds the Varsity two mile
j record at 9:52. In high school he lan
for four years. His best time was
4:43:2 in the mile In his last year.
As a Freshman in the University he
was out, but did nothing remarkable.
I: was in his Sophomore year, how-
tver. that he began to realize on his j
I past training. He esiablished the.

In 1918 Graf ran both the mile and !
iwo miles in good time. He won the
mile in the Valley Conference in 4:31.
