Usher Causes Opposing
Guards Lots of Trouble
Bill Usher, last year's captain and
forward on the Varsity basket five,
gives his opposing guards plenty of
trouble. Usher's
small sire is no
handicap to him
for ho is fast and a
bear at the basket.
He makes them
from any spot on
the court, includ
ing those near the
center Hue. The
diminutive eager
has shown himself
capable of taking
punishment that a
forward gets and
has been one of
the mainstays of
the Cornhusker of
fense. He will probably prove to be
of still greater value during this, his
last season. Usher is not mindful of
the old adnge that a forward must
have size, speed, and goal accuracy,
ne has the latter two but not the
first His home is in Lincoln and he

ORGANIZATIONS
ASKED TO HURRY
Appointments for Cornhusker
Pictures Should Be Made
Immediately.
Appointments should be made at
the campus studio immediately for
the taking of group pictures of or
ganisations, which should be in tne
hands of the Cornhusker staff by
February 1.
Several organisations which have
neglected to reserve space are ad
vised to do so at once, if they desire
the publication of group pictures in
the-Cornhusker. Only twelve soci
eties have thus far been photo
graphed.
Punctuality in the keeping of ap

basketball games. The rulings laid
down were printed on handbills and
it is believed the action will have an
effect on the conduct of the crowd
at games. The "Five Cardinal Rules
of Ohio State Sportsmanship:"
1. Be courteous to visiting teams.
Give them a hand when they take
the floor.
2 Don't appluud a foul called on
visitors.
3. Don't hiss a foul called on our
teams.
4. Refrain from smoking.
5. Let the coach do the coaching.
The rules adopted at Ohio State
should be a boost for Ohio sports
manship if the students heed them.
Those five are perhaps the only rules
the home crowd need remember if it
is to support its team fairly and
squarely. Surely Oklahoma did not
observe these rules, for in the Ne
braska game last Saturday the crowd
showed itself so unruly that it was
necessary once to stop the game until
the noise subsided.
It was a hostile crowd of Sooner
fans that met the Cornhuskers.
Their stormsef boos and hisses met
the decisions of Referee Welch every
time the penalty was against Okla
homa. And for this alone the Okla
homa cagers were penalised four
times. It is well to call attention to
the basketball ruling which specifi
cally states that the referee may pen
alize a team for the unruly actions of
the crowd. This Referee Welch did,
giving Nebraska a" free throw four
different times because of the hos
tility of the crowd.
Once it was necessary for Coach
Hugh McDermott to stop the game
and step out on the floor and beg
the students to stop their hissing
and jeering.
It is reasonably safe, to expect
that there will be no such conduct at
Nebraska at any of the home games.
Cornhusker deception of invading
football teams and fairness on the
field has become known all over the
country and it seems impossible that
It's not so much a question
of how much it costs, but a
question of how much sat
isfaction you get, that
counts.

outbreaks against visiting aggrega
tions in basketball should take piace.
Nebraska will follow the Ohio, State
rules without handbills.
Th. mli-mr in the hooo sport which
entitles th official to call fouls
mrnlnst the team which is backed by
an unruly crowd is an important one.
For instance, in the Oklahoma game
fAnr fnula were awarded the Corn
huskers on Sooner inhospitality. As
it was, Nebraska won by only live
points. It is easy to see the costly
futility of trying to referee the game
and coach it at the same time, as
many fans believe themselves so
capable of doing. r

Could Make 600 Mil Reis at
Start with Prominent Bra
zil Athletic Club.
Marvon "Red" Layton, former
Husker athlete and Olympic star, has
been offered a position as athletic di
rector of The Club Athletico Paulis
tano of Sao Paulo, Brazil, according
to a cablegram received from one of
the directors of the club.
The club is the strongest in Brazil;
it sent thirty of that country's ath
letes to the Olympics at Paris last
summer. It was at Paris that "Red"
met some of the directors of the club,
who are now making an effort to ob
tain the services of the former Husk
er star. The salary offered by the
club will be 600 mil reis, which will
later be advanced to 1,000 mil reis
per month.
Besides being a track star, Layton
won his letter in football one sea
son. He was one of Nebraska's best
sprint men while in school, running
the 440-yard dash and hurdle races.
He won the 400-meter hurdle race at
the Drake relays last spring, which
put him in the finals of the Olympic
tryouts at New York. While in Eur
ope, "Red" ran the 400-meter hur
dles in near world record time at the
Belgian games at Antwerp. At pres
ent he is connected with the Nebras
ka Soils and Survey department of
which Dr. Condra is the head.

"Grinnell has an unusually good
team and will probably cause a lot
of grief in the conference before
the season ends." This from Dr.
the University of Kansas, whose
team played against the Pioneers
last Thursday and defeated them
only after a hard battle.
Of the three games played on the
northern invasion Grinnell was the
hardest, said Dr. Allen. Accord
ing to him. Coach Charley Black,
former basket star at Kansas, has
an exceptionally good aggregation
and will be reinforced at the end of
this semester by two ex-Carnegie
Tech players who will be available
at that time.
Grinnell won from the Missouri
Tigers 25-23. Their strength can
be judged from that.
Tipton suffered a minor leg in
jury in Tuesday's basketball prac
tice. The Varsity guard was fixed
op by "Doc" McLean, however, and
will be in practice and in the fray
Saturday night as good as ever.
Missouri trackmen are working
oat of doors most of the time. Lack
ing a good indoor track they have
been practicing on boards laid down
outside. A snow early this week
hindered workouts and the track
sters were unable to get my good
practice.
A report of E. K. Hall, chairman
cf the American Intercollegiate
Football Rules committee, commends
most of the rales which were used in
1924. The changes made for the
1924 season, he said, have tended to
speed up the game and have served
their purpose welL One of the ruler
will probably be changed again this
year. That is the setting back of
the kickoff from the fifty to the
forty yard line. Last year the rulej
was changed so that the game would ,
be started from the mid-way line,!
but so many kickoffs went over the
goal line, then being brought to the
twenty-yard line for play, that it is
almost sure the old rule will be,
adopted.
Mr. Hall's report says that foot
ball last year proved to have even a
greater drawing power than before.
It is perhaps the only typical colle
giate sport, he says, snd will not be
ruled out because of the large sums
of money and the hupe crowds which
spend it. Football is serving an
other great purpose besides the de
velopment of intercollegiate rivalry
and the entertainment of thousands.
It is bringing the college money
whereby intramural athletics can be
further encouraged. Where only a
few took part in sports a few years
ago, many are doing it now because
of the money brought in by foot-balL

Faihionably smooth hair
This has caused the great .
change in the appearance
of men's hair
YOU cannot go into a
classroom, or a club, or a
fraternity house, without no
ticing it
Somehow, college men have
found a way to make the
hair, the most conspicuous
part of the appearance, look
just as they want it to look
at all times.
It was not always so.
Before Stacomb was intro
duced, they tried countless
methods to make their hair
lie smoothly and stay that way
from old-fashioned po
mades, which only matted the
hair and made it greasy, to
plain water, which kept it in
place an hour at the most and
then left it drier and more
brittle than ever. Small won
der that they greeted Stacomb
with such instant enthusiastr.l
Here at last was something
that would make the hair stay
in place without harming it or
making it sticky and unnatural-looking.
Today the great change which
Stacomb has brought etout is no
ticed everywhere. Men whose hair
used to be out of place an hour after
being brushed, men whose other
wise correct appearance used to be
spoiled by hair that was hopelessly
unkempt today they keep their
hair constantly in perfect order.
Use Stacomb tomorrow morning
and look your best day. A deli
cate, invisible cream. N on -stain ing
and non-greasy. In jars and tubes,
at all drug and department stores.
