The mutter of student repi senta
with the University of California I
assured Nebraska's track and field
quad on their California trip. The
Hunkers will meet eilner the Uni
versity of Arizona or the University
of New Mexico on their way to the
coast.
Which of these schools will be met
cannot be determined until railroad
arrangements are completed. Two
years apo the Cornhuskers met the
University of New Mexico at Albu
querque on their way to the coast,
defeating them decisively. The Uni
versity of Colorado was also given a
bad beating by Nebraska on the re
turn trip. As yet no plans have been
made for any meets on the return
trip this year.
Plans for Saturday's opening try
outs were being laid by Coach
Schulte at the stadium track Wed
nesday afternoon. The tryouts will
be open to non-varsity men to parti
cipate for numeral points.
TRIANGULAR TRACK

Early in February
Des Moines, la., January 18.
(Spl.) With the first triangular
indoor track meet less than a month
away, Coach Harold Ebert is busy
marshalling his veterans and several
promising youngsters from last
year's freshman class into a formid
able nucleus of athletic artists.
The impending engagement, a
three-way engagement involving
Drake, Ames, and Grinnell at Ames,
February 11, will see the blue and
white school represented by eleven
performers, all of whom have seen
previous experience in varsity com
petition. N Heading this list is Capt. Ray Dal
bey, Drake's peerless pole-vaulter;
Mark Manchester, Fee Chew, Claude
(Red) Wright, Gail Fry, and Jeff
Robertson, all seniors, who complete
their college careers this spring.
Two year men embrace Robert
Bagby, Herbert Boettger, Summer

dogs' one dependable weight man.
New men. sophomores, who give
more than passing indication of be
coming mainstays under Coach fcbert
arc: Herbert Schell and Porter Cock

Perry Hobbs, quart ormiler; Carlos
Kipper, pole vaultcr; Kenneth Nel
son, discus, and Rolnnd Anderson,
shotputter.
Anderson, a Knoxville boy, who
played varsity tackle this past fall,
boasts an enviable record with the
weights. He is expected to give the
veteran Boettger plenty of competi
tion for the right of being regarded
as the foremost weight man on the
Drake varsity squad.
AMES WRESTLERS
BEING CHANGED
Defeat Simpson Eaily but Coach
s. Make Four Major Shifts
C Before Next Conteit
ft
Ames, Iowa, Jan. 17. Special:
Radical changes in the Iowa State
wrestling lineup for the dual meet
with the Missouri Tigers here Satur
day are likely. Although Iowa State
had little trouble in disposing of
Simpson, 22 to 5, four major shifts
will be made in the team that downed
the Methodists.
In the 115-pound class Charlie
Meyers of Ottumwa, Varsity man
from last year's team, will probably
replace Nordyke, sophomore aspir
ant. Nordyke won his match in his
first Varsity appearance, but failed
to show up as well as was hoped.
Mevers has been working out with
the Cyclones for several weeks and
is now in top condition

at Vaudeville." and hip orchestra,
In the 125-pound weight Kurtz
will wrestle against Missouri. A two
year layoff does not seem to bother
the former Missouri Valley and
western intercollegiate champion in
his first match of the year against
Simpson. Kurtz has the head ana
bodv scissors down to the fine art
shown by Prunty and Bayvey of last
year's team.
Lightweight Class
In the lightweight class it Is
thought that either Beach, Varsity
alternate last year, or Don Gerling,
former Simpson grappler, will get
the call against Missouri.
The 145-pound class will be hand
led bv Clair Grooms of Ottumwa, an
other Varsitv man from the team of
two years ago, although Rex Camp
bell, Mid-West National A. A. u.
champion, gave a good account of
himself in the Simpson dual Thurs
day. Probablv the only sophomore who
will wrestle for the Cyclones Satur-
Hnv will be Jimmie Blair of Mason
City, former state high school cham-
nion. Blair gives promise of develop
ing into a great 158-pounder. In his
first Varsity appearance Blair tossed
Hogendorn of the Methodists in six
minutes, and showed aggressiveness
and willingness to mix throughout
the match.
The most radical change contem
plated is the moving of Wolff, Var

the Cyclone captain weighs 176,
Wolff will have little difficulty in
taking on weight, his chief trouble
in the past having been to scale down
to the middleweight limit.

THE DAILY NEBR ASK AN
IN THE VALLEY

JACK ELLIOTT
The Grinnell Pioneers failed to
make a basket in the first seventeen
minutes of play and lost to Iowa
State, conquerors of the Kansas Jay
hawkers. The Ames quintet stopped
a last minute rally and won 22 to 19.
Coggeshall, Pioneer forward, set the
pace with eight points. Elliott, lows
State scoring ace, was high point
man for the victors, scoring six
points for his team.
For the first time since he has been
coaching at Kansas University Dr.
Thog" Allen has divided his basket
ball squad into two teams, a varsity
and a reserve team. For years Kan
sas has alwavs had a large basketball
squad, because Coach Allen would
not cut his squad.
After the Iowa State defeat last
Saturday he plans to do more inten
sive training with his varsity crew,
believing that the showing of Kansas
to date is not up to standard.
The men retained on the squad are
Cantain Schmidt. Peterson, Gordon,
Jeffrey, Burton, Fowler, Mancy,
Campbell, Henderson, Hill, Ncwland,
Zubcr, Houser and Kester.
Monday night Coach "Indian"
Schulte started "putting the watch on
his Nebraska runners, as the training
for the opening meets takes on an in
tensive nature. The particularly sig
nificant facts in the Monday perfor
mance was the showing of the fresh
men, who outshone the efforts of
Schulte's Varsity candidates in the
main. "Chief" Elkins made a leap of
21 feet 11 1-2 inches to best the ef
forts of the Varsity candidates. Ash
burn was getting good distance on
the shot put while Wirsig took his
usual vaults around the twelve foot
mark.
Taking a pre-season bird's-eye
vjew of Coach Schulte's track squad
it promises to be the best that the
Nebraska track mentor has turned
out in years. There is one thing cer
tain, Nebraska will have quarter
milers. Practically all the veterans
back in the running event are men
who find the 440 their best effort
Showing plainly the effects of
three hard games in four days, to
gether with a 1,100 mile road trip,
the Iowa State Cyclones, conquerors
of Kansas and Grinnell, are prepar
ing for the Oklahoma Aggies at Still
water, Friday, and the Oklahoma
Sooners, Missouri Valley Conference
leaders, at Norman, Saturday.

start their trek to Stillwater. Al
though the Cyclones decisively de
feated the Oklahoma Aggies at Ames
40 to 21, and were nosed out by the
Conference leaders 32 to 29, the
hoped for victory over the Sooners
in the return game may be a bigger
hurdle than the travel-worn Ames
team can clear.
Elliott, Ames forward, continues
to hold his lead as high scorer in the
Valley, and his running mate, Staver,
is tied for second. The Ames quintet
has two powerful scorers in these
two forwards, and in practice ses
sions they drop them through the
net consistently.
Joe Wagner, six-foot three-inch
center for the Cyclones, has also
moved up among the high point men
of the conference and is fifth at the
present standing.
When Iowa . State returns from
Oklahoma it will have travelled 2,

forwards have scored a total of 29
points, but Byers has only played
two games while the Cyclone for
ward featured in four.
Roy Andreson, Husker guard leads
the Husker scorers with 15 points
and is in eleventh place, not counting
the Kansas game. Nebraska played
its third Valley game last night, that
will count in the official standing for
championship honors.
