THE DAILY NEBR ASK AN
HUSKERS TRAIN
FOR WASHIHGTOM
Two Very Different Type
Of Basketball Will
Be Displayed
TEAM NOT YET PICKED
When the Nebraska Huskers meet
the Washington Bears at St Louis
Friday night two extremely different
coached teams will appear lor Dauie,
Washington employs the man-to-man
style and takes recourse to long shots
by both guards, while Coach Black is
drilling his Scarlet and uream qum
tet for the short shct, fast passing,
fVre-man defense game.
The Nebraska coach is not opti
rustic in regard to the outcome of
the Husker-Washington contest, and
predicts a very close game. Washing.
ton University is always a hard foe,
i.Uv n earlv season, and are
hard to beat on their own hardwood
Last year the Nebraska quintet took
a 26 to 20 win over Washington.
Hard Practice .
Last night Coach Black took the
vritv throueh a lengthy and hard
ing, and fast floor work. The prac
practice, drilling on guarding, pass
tice showed great improvement in the
Cornhusker five, and Black is work
ing his team hard in preparation for
this week-end road trip to Missouri
The starting line-up is very in
definite and it is not known who will
make the 1,000-mile trip, but ten
men will entrain, according to re
ports from the athletic office. Sev
eral different quintets and combina
tions have been used throughout the
week in practice, but the combina-
tion that will start against the Bears
and the Missouri Tigers is unknown.
HUMERAL TRACK
DEO KEPT BUSY
More Than 300 Work Out In
Stadium Daily; uood
Prospect Seen
The attempt to have fifty new
track and field numeral winners by
February is under way. Eleven men
had spring numeral points recorded
Tuesday evening and several others
who have made points have not had
them recorded as yet More than
S00 men are working out on the in
door track at the stadium daily.
Coach Schulte has been varying
pace work with over-distance work
for the distance and middle-distance
men this week. The sprinters and
hurdlers lare going through phort
runs with plenty of starting drill.
Prospects in the weight events in
dicate that some promising material
is at hand although development is
still problematical. Coach Schulte
is working daily with a corps of new
men in the shot-put, attempting to
find someone to take the place of
Kriemmelmeyer, who was capable of
defeating any contestant in the Val
ley last year in this event, with the
exception of Richerson of Missouri,
Valley record holder.
The men who have made numeral
points to date with their marks and

"Two or three months ago, Mr.

be made into slides and used by the

If personal fouls are an indication
of the brand of basketball that is be

the casual observer might say that
so far this season it was pretty
