Combination Work Out For
Initial Game With
Kansas Aggies
LINEUP IS INDEFINITE
With several different combina
tions, Coach Charles Black took his
baakotball squad through a two hour
grilling: workout in the coliseum last
evening, preparing for the 'opening
of the Missouri Valley basketball
Beason for Nebraska on January 7,
with the Kansas Aggies at Lincoln.
Pre-season dope is already out of
the bucket and the Nebraska quintet
is not favorably doped. The scarlet
and cream five lost last week to the
Hillyards, amateur champions of
1926 in a pre-season practice tilt at
St Joseph. Monday night the Kan
sas Aggies won from the Hillyards
at St. Joseph and the Oklahoma
Sooners also took the National
champs to a trimming on December
17. Both of these valley teams are
Nebraska foes for the coming sea
son. Tuesday evening, Charley Black,
head coach, started building up the
weak places in the squad which were
plainly shown in the Hillyard game.
The lineup against the Kaggies is
undefinite and will not be announced
until later.

them. Iowa State in a season's time

Burlesque Number
Big Ten Weekly
By Freddie Boulevard
More than ever before what the
wbll dressed athlete is coming to de
pends on his personal fancies and
whims. I have noted at the fashion
able campuses, watering places and
winter resorts for young men a wider
latitude in the choice of design, ma
terial and colorings.
The costume of the modern ath
lete, particularly our young stal
warts of the gridiron has undergone
many changes. There seems to be a
note of democracy in the new styles,
a trend toward greater freedom, a
complete divorce from the former
rigid lines of formalism.
The evolution of the trouser, per
haps, is the most interesting. For
many years the knickerbocker was
the correct thing for afternoon wear
on the gridiron, but the rage for silk
bloomers spread fast last year. The
most fashionable designers for next
year have announced that a silk
jacket will replace the rather cum
bersome jersey of the present sea
son. althouEh a roucth, pongee jacket
will be worn at many places around
the club or on the practice field.
Hosiery Fad
There has come about a fad of late
years for discarding hosiery during
the game. At first this was hailed as
a dreaded incursion into the rights
of the individual, but this thought
has passed. It is now considered quite
de trop for the well dressed halfback
to appear without socks, and many of
them appear extremely chic.
This custom sprang into promin
ence at the Florida and California
resorts and spread with great rapid
ity. Some of the best designers for
i.ext year insist that when the ath
lete goes without hose spats must be
worn and it will be Interesting to
note the prevalence of this style In
another season. White spats, of
course, will be the thing, trimmed In
the varsity colors.
Leather Chapeau Retained
Milord's chapeau shows little
change for next autumn. Leather,
often perforated, still is the favorite
material, with a soft lining of cotton
or some such goods. But there Is a
wide latitude shown in the matter
of trimmings. Some of the smartest
shops are showing car drops and
pendants to be worn attached to mi
lord's helmet
The color motifs for next year
abound in unusual shades and pas
tels. In my travels I have noted great
variety. In Boston the strict New
Englander still clings to crimson,
while in Philadelphia red and blue
seems the dominant shade. On my
week in the hills of New Hampshire
for a bit of winter sports I found
green still as much in favor as ever.
Brown was still popular at Provi
dence and Newport, but blue was
New Haven's choice.
Chic Trimmings Apparent
Farther west, where one expects
vigor as well as chic trimmings, I
discovered a deep shade of Maroon
most becoming in many styles shown
about Chicago. In the north-shore
suburbs, Evanston, particularly, the
familiar pale lavender has given way
to a deep purple. The smart motor
folks in Detroit are wearing a dark
blue, with fetching yellow borders.
Everywhere the tendency of young
men is to appear "carefully careless"
in their apparel, but I note with no
little displeasure the frequency with
which mud cleats are worn with eve
ning attire, particularly in the mid
dle west. This seems to me to be a
step too far from the old and accep
ted tenets of good form.
minor on December 17. after trailing
the first half 11 to 18. A fierce rally
in the second half swept the Hill
yards off their feet, and only four
points were marked by the St Joe
chemics. Over 1,500 spectators
poured into the Oklahoma armory to
witness the great game.
ball often does not have sufficient
room.
Although under the old rules
either team could call time out with
the ball in position for one of more
free throws, that practice has been
abolished this year.

It looks like the Oklahoma Sooners

The old rule that the ball goes to
center following a technical foul
has been altered in Missouri valley
basketball. So now if two or more
free throws are awarded to the same
team, at least one of which is a per
sonal foul, the ball is in play if the
last free throw is missed.
If free throws are awarded both
teams, the ball goes to center after
the last throw, regardless of whether
it is made or missed.
Another new rule in basket ball
circles for 1927 is that a player
throwing the ball in from out of
bounds is given the privilege of step
ping over the boundary line when he
throws, it was decided at the meet
ing of the Valley coaches at Des
Moines.
The old rule of this play forbids
