iooeer Tracksters Appear Strong
GRINNELL MEET
WILL BE STIFF
Look for Real Compteition
When Pioneer Track Squad
Come to Lincoln for Dual
Contest Saturday.
SCHULTE PREDICTS FIGHT
Nebraska Likely to Lose Many
of Field Events and to Have
Hard Fight to Place in Dis
tance Runs.
"The meet will be a great one
with Grinnell stronger than she has
ever been, and Nebraska struggling
to hold her lead for the Missouri Val
ley championship there will be some
wonderful performances," Coach
Schulte said yesterday while speak
ing of the dual meet with Grinnell
next Saturday. "Grinnell has the
greatest dual meet team in the Val
ley it appears. New records are sure
to be established."
The Pioneers are strong in the
dashes, their sprinters, Scharnweber
and Taylor are expected to capture
second and third places in the 100
and Scharnweber and Jones can be
counted upon to win second and third
in the 220.
Kitchen, colored flash, and his
team mate have equaled the best
time of Crites and Scherich in the
440 and are expected to furnish
strong competition in that event in
the meet Saturday. Their best half
miler will press Lewis and Houder
Scheldt in the 880, having done the
event in 2:00.
Grinnell's miler is one of the best
men in the Valley and will press Lew
is hard for first place. He beat the
Nebraska entries badly at the Mis
souri Valley indoor meet. The Pi
oneers can run the two mile event in
9:55, which is better time than any
of the Nebraska runners have made
it in.
Weir has beaten and been beaten
in the high hurdles by J. Morgan
Taylor, Olympic star, in the Kansvs
and Drake Relays. Green, their oth
er entry is almost as fast as Taylor.
Weir is not in very good shape fol
lowing his injury on a hurdle at
Drake.
Taylor ranks as the second best
low hurdler in the world, having run
a yard behind Brookins when he
made the world's record in 23 sec
onds. Green can run the hurd'es in
almost as fast time, being clocked in
24 seconds.
, Grinnell can place first and second
in the high jump if its entries can o
over the bar at their usual heighth.
Taylor can go over at 5 feet 11 inch
es and his team mate can do 5 feet
10 inches.
The results in the broad jump will
be a tossup according to present indi
cations. Taylor and Jones of Gri--nell
and Mandary and Rhodes of Ne
braska can all do 22 feet consistant
ly. Nebraska, with Wirsig, Gleason,
Rhodes, and Davis, holds the edge in
the pole vault. All of them can clear
the bar around 12 feet, which is bet
ter than the marks made by Pioneer
vaulters so far this year.
Grinnell holds the edge in the shot
put according to present marks made
this year. Rhinefort and Meeker
have been heaving the shot 43 to -"
feet which is much farther than thi
Nebraska weight men have been ab
to do. Krimmelmeier and Molzen
have been doing 41 to 42 feet 6
inches.
Rhinefort, Grinnell discus heavr,
won a third at Drake with a toss of
better than 138 feet. Nueher can
throw the discuss 135 feet in prac
tice. These two men look good for
sure first and second unless they fail
to live up to advance notices.
Rhinefort throws the javelin 170
feet consistently and the next best
man can do 165. Nebraska men can
do 165 feet.
The mile relay promises to be a
thriller. Grinnell beat the Husker
team at the Kansas Relays but Ne
braska reversed the decision at Drake
with Locke leading off.

PLANNING FOR THIRD
ACADEMIC CONTESTS
Winners of District Meetings
to Decide State Honors
Here May 9.
Plans have been made for the
third annual interscholastic academic
contest for Nebraska high schools,
which will be held May 9 at the
University. The preliminary con
tests for the separate districts were
held on Saturday, April 25 in each
of the six districts.
Uniform questions will be provid
ed by the University for all subjects
included n the average high school
curriculum. Representatives from
the district contests and from high
schools not represented in the district
contests are eligible for the state
contest.
The preliminary contests were held
at Kearney, Wayne, Hastings, Alma,
Holdregi, McCook, Chadron, and
Bridgeport. The two winners of
each contest, which have not as yet
been announced, will comprise half
of the delegates at the state meet.
Only the accredited high schools that
did not enter students in the prelim
inary contest are eligible to send stu
dents on May 9.
The first contest of this kind w,a
held in 1923 for eight different sub
jects. Since -then the subjects offer
ed have increased considerably in
number. Omaha Central was the
easy winner of the first contest. In
1924 the number of subjects was
increased to enghteen and Omaha
Central again took a majority of the
medals. All questions to be asked
in the contest are being prepared by
faculty members of the University
of Nebraska, and are to be of such
nature that only general school
work will help in preparation.
The Department of Fine Arts at
the University has prepared a design
for the medals to be presented to the
winners of the state contests. A
wreath of laurels surrounds the dome
of the new capitol, typical of Ne
braska, upholding the torch of learn
ing. On the reverse is the cupola of
Nebraska Hall, representing schol
astic endeavor. The medals are in
gold, silver, and bronze.
Four students and f ur faculty
members are to be named as a com
mittee to discuss the control of stu
dent publication at Syracuse Uni
versity. The faculty publications
committee decided that the two men
and two women should be chosen by
the presidents of the student body
and of the W. S. G. A.
Nebraska Highs
Will Compete in
State Meet May 9
Nebraska high school coaches are
rounding the corners off their squads
this week in preparation for the big
event in the high school track world,
the state meet on the Stadium track
here May 9.
Meets this week bring almost every
team into action in the final compe
tition before the state classic staged
by the University. At Scottsbluff,
Mitchell, Alliance, Gering, Bayard,
Bridgeport, and Sidney will run for
Nebraska honors, while numerous
invitational meets throughout the
state make the card a large one.
Hastings college, Kearney Normal,
and Nebraska Central .invitational
meets will bring a lot of high school
talent together, and the Harlan coun
ty meet at Alma and the Tri-State
meet at McCook will take care of the
larger teams of the southwestern
part of the state.
The Northeast Central Athletic as
sociation meet is expected to be the
best of that association, and hot com
petition is expected.
TWENTY-SIX SIGN
FOR MAT CONTEST
WILL TEACH PLAYERS
OWN STYLE OF PLAY
Spring; basketball practice opened
for the first time in the annals of
the winter sport at Nebraska when
twenty-five men reported at the Ar
mory yesterday evening. Coach E.
E. Bcarg, the new Husker coach for
basketball, delivered a short talk to
the men in which he outlined some of
his plans for the coming year.
Spring practice will start immedi
ately, the first work-out being this
afternoon at 4 o'clock, and will con
tinue for three weeks. The practices
will be held from 7 to 9 o'clock on
Monday, Wednesday and Friday and
4 to 0 o'clock on Tuesday and Thursx
day. All basketball men are urged
to turn out daily for these practices.
The chief object of the spring
practice is to get the men thoroughly
accustomed to the style of play which
the new coach will use next season.
The Husker five man defense, which
was rated as one of the strongest
in the Valley, will remain practically
the same. Slight changes will be
made in floor tactics, especially on
the offensive, and emphasis will be
stressed on the short pass. The sys
tem in the main will be patterend
after the Illinois style which was so
successfully used in the Big Ten.
The men reporting for practice last
night were: Goodson, Smaha, Klep-
scr, Eckstrom, Black, rage, Beeikle,
Searles, Banning, Swanson, Oehlrich,
James, Jacobson, Decker, Petersen,
Mclntyre, Bernard, Cass, Grace, Eg-
gert, Chaiken, Roth, Gerelich, Nor-
ling, Lawson.

SQUAD'S PRACTICE
Will Have Plenty of Work to
Prepare for Games
This Week-end.
The Varsity baseball squad has
been forced to discontinue practice
at the Rock Island Park the last two
days on account of the cold rainy

viding his time between the two
spring sports this week-end. He will
pitch the first game against the Kan

needed in the dual meet with Grin
nell. "Murph" Lang, who held the
opposing teams to three hits in two
games on the' recent trip, will hold
the mound on the second day.
The Huskers will meet a strong ag
gregation in the Kansas Aggie squad.

an even split in a two-game series
with Oklahoma they are leading the
Valley. The Nebraska squad emerged
from their last week's trip with an
even break in Valley standings, hav
