The new 1928 basketball rules
which are causing so much discussion
throughout -.the r-onnfry ttni &TS
meeting with a great disapproval in
the Missouri Valley are discussed in
a late issue of the Big Ten Weekly
by Dr. Walter E. Meanwell, head
basketball coach at the University of
Wisconsin. Dr. Meanwell is a mem
ber of the basketball rules committee.
His discussion on the " new basket
ball rule,' limiting the dribble to one
bounce next year follows:
'In the first place the Rules com
mittee consists of a group of twenty
men : six members each from the Y.
M. C. A.'s of the country, from the
colleges and from the Amateur Ath
letic Union; and two members repre
senting the national organization of
basketball officials. Most of these
Rules committee men have been serv
ing for many years and the majority
of them have had ten years or more
of experience on the committee. This
would preclude any thought that snap
judgment was excerised in the deci
sions of the committee at any time.
"Further, the committee, through
its editor, is in touch with basketball
situations throughout the United
States and receives hundreds of let
ters expressing satisfaction or dis
satisfaction with rules and suggest
ing helpful changes.
"From all over the country have
come to the committee protests
against stalling, which in some sec
tions is practically ruining the game.
The stall, to be effective as an offen
sive weapon, is practically always
concluded by a dribble. One state
organization wrote to
committee and stated
the national
'that unless
measures were Ukcn to eliminate the
stall, such measures would have to
be erected by their own state board
and they concluded by stating that
the true remedy for the misused
stall is the elimination of the dribble.
"It has been observed that over
seventy percent of the fouls called in
a game have been due to the dribble,
either because of the guard held, or
because the dribbler charged, very
frequently because the dribbler, hay
ing passed the guard, was then
foulded in the act of dribbling
which is one of the most dangerous
plays in the entire game from the
standpoint of resultant serious in
jury. "Third it was felt that the game
was not progressing as a team game
to as great a degree as its possibil
ities would permit. Instead of bas
ketball becoming more and more like
football as a great team game, as
is entirely possible, it is drifting to
the type of baseball wherein individ
ual effort predominates and team co
operation is of rather minor impor
tance. Football is a game wherein
one great star can help win the game
but can rarely win the game soley by
individual effort.
"The committee feels that the
team game element was the one to
promote, especially for teams in edu
cational institutions wherein the
games, after all, are played for the
purpose of teaching the lessons of
good citizenship rather than for win
ning championships.

Reed Reports
Meeting To Be
Well Attended
At the national meeting of the
University Extension Associations
held recently at the University of
North Carolina, Prof. A. A. Reed,
head of the extension department,
just returned from the annual meet
ing and reports that directors of ex
tension departments representing
about forty institutions attended the
Conference.
The) business meeting was given
over to various discussions of exten
sion work and reports of standing
committees. The main topic of dis
cussion was in regard to standard
ization of special credit courses.
They triedl to agree upon various
standards so that universities can
recognize the credits for extension
work in reference to degrees.
Another topic of interest was ra
dio work in its relation to college
courses. A special committee was
appointed to see that the value of in
struction and information given over
the radio by universities is not over
come by the attempts to commer
cialize its uses.
Pageantry is a very important
work in that part of the country
where the conference was held. The
University of North Carolina took all
members who attended the meeting to
an adjoining county to view a de
monstration in dramatic work. About
fifteen hundred children presented a
pageant showing the history of the
state of North Carolina.
Next year members of the Exten
sion Association will meet at the
University of Kansas.

(Editor's Note)
This is the eleventh chapter of an
historical resume of Nebraska ath
letic which ha been compiled by a
member of Tk Daily Nebraskaa
sport staff. A chapter of this ac
count will appear in each issae of
The Daily Nebraskan for the re
mainder of the school year.
By Jack Ellioit
After spending an unsuccessful
season on the football gridrion last
season the Cornhuskcrs again started
the uphill climb and won the cham
pionship of the Missouri Valley con
ference for the year 1910. It was an
extraordinary as well as one on the
greatest season the Husker school
ever experienced. After a lapse of
three seasons, Nebraska returned fo
her position as football champions of
the Missouri Valley.
Coach '"King" Cole, head football
coach at the Husker school in 1910,
turned out a championship team his
third and last year at Nebraska.
Cole had given Nebraska three years
of excellent service as a football di
rector and was one of the best the
Huskers ever had. He was the man
who developed th "Nebraska Spirit"
in both the student body and the
football squad.
Ewald O. Stiehm succeeded Coach
W. Cole as football coach at Ne
braska. Stiehm graduated from Wis
consin University in 1909, playing on
the Badger team for three years,
gaining a position as All-Western
center his last two years in football.
"Jumbo" Stiehm came to Nebraska
as head football coach in 1911 after
being out of Wisconsin but one year.
The spirit Coach "King" Cole de
veloped at Nebraska was first made
evident in the election for the 1910
football captain. Heretofore foot
ball captain elections had bee a se
ries of electioneering and campaign-j
ing by political factions. Bitter feel
ing was plainly demonstrated in
every election but this practice was
gradually killed by the Husker coach
before he left Nebraska. -
Thei season opener was a practice
game with Peru Normal which the
Huskers easily won. The second
game of the season was South Da
kota, which was also scheduled to be
a practice game. The first battle of
the 1910 season was at Minneapolis
against the Minnesota Gophers, the
Husker eleven coming out on the
short end of the score. The Ne
braska eleven gained a wealth of ex
perience in this game and returned
to Lincoln with increased determina
tion and as a result trimmed the Den
ver University eleven by a decisive
score.
, The greatest game of the season
came on November 5 with the Kansas
Jayhawkers, the age old rival of all
Husker grid machines. Nebraska
outclassed Kansar in every depart
ment of the game and won the game
by the sheer outplaying and outgen
eraling its opponents.
By winning the Kansas game, Ne
braska cinched the championship of
the Missouri Valley and brought
home the trophy for the first time in
three years. The last-game of the
season was with the Haskell Indians
and a monster crowd"turned out to
see the big Turkey Day game. The
Indians had beaten Nebraska the year
before and this year Cole's Husker
machine easily outclassed the Red
skins and won the game by largest
score in the history, of Cornhusker
football, 119 to 0. This was a fitting
climax to one of the most brilliant
seasons at Nebraska.
Not to be outdone by the football
eleven, the Husker basketeers put a
record in Nebraska history that was
one of the best if not the best up to j
this time. The Nebraska quintet

finished second in the Missouri Val
ley race.
After playing medicore basketball
during the opening two weeks of the
19110-11 season the Husker quintet
took a long road trip six game in
as many nights and traveling nearly
eight hundred miles. Ames, Missouri,
and Kansas all in one week without a
day's rest. Two victories and four
defeats was the result of the trip,
but one encouragement of the trip
was the defeat th Huskers handed
the Kansas Jayhawkers, beating them
36 to 27.
Coach Field, Husker basketball
coach, 'started with a green team and
when the season closed had one of
the most finished basketball quintets
in the conference, and the only team
to beat the strong Jayhawker five.
Nebraska's season on the track was
quite an unusual one and only in a
degree FuccessfuL Hard luck was
the by-word in the camp of the Corn-
husger tracksters all season. There
was no track coach until after the
season had opened the track was
not completed until late in May the
track team was forced to get in its
practice when and wherever it could,
and greatest of all, two of the star
runners of the team, were injured
early in the season and were of little
service to the team throughout the
season.
On May 6 Captain Burke took his
band of 'Scarlet and Cream thinclads
to Sioux City for the big meet of the
season. I he Husker team sprang the j
surprise of thn

LA 'EtSElNE SIX EST CON PORTABLE AU 5UPR.ME DE G RE"" L'AUTO, PARIS
"Still jetting tit stylt face, aren't youl Glad Tm not the parent wh fays
ami fays and fays. ' '
"Ai, that's the feint. It's an Erskine Six and economy is its secret fas sion.
Don't iudgt its cost iy its appearance."
CPEAKTNG frankly, who cares a fig for bore and stroke,
y cubic displacement and all of that. The car of today .
is the one that slips through traffic like an All-Amcrican
halfback wriggles through a broken field; turns on a
dime with nine cents change and pops into a parking
space with a hair's breadth clearance front and rear.
To match the spirit of American youth a motor car must
have "It." ' It" is the ability to chase the horizon all
day without panting; smart good looks that do credit
to the intelligence of its owner and riding comfort that
wins a sigh cf complete case.
That's why the Erskine Six Custom Coupe is taking
America's youth by storm. Style conceived in Paris
design by Dietrich, the master designer speed that lets
you decide whether or not the car behind will pass. And,
will it stand up? Studcbaker builds it Q. E. D.
Take possession of an Erskine Six today. Drive it over
roads other cars fear. Forget the gearshift lever. Hcvise
all your notions of motoring. You're riding in a car
that has set a new pace for others to try and follow.
