OUT FOR MATCH
Husker Wrestling Squad Will
Contend With Hawkeyes
Here Saturday
TEAM LINE-UP IS LISTED
Nebraska's wrestling team took a
final stiff work-out last night, in
preparation for the match with the
Iowa University team at the Colis
eum Saturday night. A reversal of
form was shown in the tussles, and
the team is now conceded a good
chance of defeating the Hawkeye
grapplers.
Tryouts for places on the first
squad were held Wednesday night,
and the same team that represented
Nebraska at Ames last week will
compete. Coach Kellogg is uncertain
about his 178 lb., and heavyweight
classes, as he has Koehnke and Davis
who are equally as efficient in either

weight. The classes they will wrestle
in, probably will not be decided until
just before the matches etart.
Iowa Ha Several Victories
Iowa comes to Lincoln with an im
pressive string of victories over Big
Ten opponents. Although far from
the top in the conference, the Hawk
eye bone crushers are a source of
worry to all opponents.
Nebraska's lineup will consist of
the following: 118 lb. class, Kes
owsky; 128 lb. class, Karrer; 138 lb.
class, Captain Luff; 140 lb. class,
Reimer; 156 lb. class, Toman; 178
lb. class, undecided; heavyweight,
undecided.
The matches will start at 7 o'clock,
preceding the Nebraska-Oklahoma
basketball game.
"One college professor told me
that the only good thing he had done
during his career as a teacher was
to induce two percent of his students
to leave college," was a recent re
mark of a rather skeptical Univer
sity of Washington professor to a
student group.
The six senior co-eds at Ohio State
University who were selected for thir
year's Makio, year book, are called
typical girls instead of representative
girls. This was done because it was
decided that personal bias would
otherwise enter in, but the girls
really represent the average co-ed in
'the graduating class.

Thompsen, who is playing his first

the Kansas squad in scoring and is
rated as one of best forwards in the
conference. In fact it seems that
everything in the line of basketball
players is in the southern end of the
conference. Holt, leading scorer,
followed closely behind by Wright of
the Oklahoma Aggies and Churchill

After the Sooner game Saturday
night the Nebraskans hit tho road
for an invasion of Oklahoma, meet
ing the Aggies and the Sooners and
returning to Lincoln to close the sea
son with the Grinnell five on the
Co'.iseum floor. From the present
indications Nebraska will not rate a
first division place this season. Last
year the Scarlet finished in fourth
place against the seventh place the
Nebraska quintet holds at the pres
ent. The outlook at the beginning of
the season was bright with the re
turning of four lettermen to start the
1928 season. Of course the loss of
Page and Smaha put the Nebraska
scoring ability among the souvenirs
but basketball fans were predicting
a successful year on the court.

GOLD'S FIFTH FLOOR
Now in seventh place and probably
there to stay unless the Oklahomans
can be beaten twice, the season has
been quite a disappointment to Corn
husker court followers. But then
there is always the future and the ex
pectations and anticipations for next
year cannot be dimmed by the
seventh place rating of this year.
Coach "Bunny" Oakes has been
working hard with his freshmen pro
teges all season and has a goodly
amount of success to his credit. At
the beginning of the season Oakes
was blessed with a large amount of
real basketball material and he set
in to work polishing off the rough
ness and round the yearlings into
shape for Varsity competition next
year.
Morris Fisher, former Lincoln
high school ace, numbers among the
ranks of the frosh and has been go
ing great all season on the hardwood.
Along with Fisher are "Bill" Saw
yer, "Pinky" Morrison, Kimball,
Milhollin, Jensen and a score of
others. With this vast amount of
basketeers for next season, it should
not be a difficult proposition for Ne
braska to make a first division team.
And speaking of freshmen pros
pects, the Kansas frosh squad is not
so hard hit with good looking men
for the court next year. Heading the
list is "Frostie" Cos, All-American
high school guard, who has been
showing the Jayhawker frosh how to
sink 'em through the rim from behind

Last year, as a sophomore, Lake

When Aggie sport critics discussed

F. G. Collins spoke before his ra
dio audience yesterday morning on
the topic of salamanders. Mr. Col
lins talk was a part of the regular
University broadcasting program.
Mr. Collins made mention of a
group of salamanders recently con
tributed to the museum by Miss Flor
ence Gardner of Goehner. The crea
tures are about ten inches In length,
dark colored, with four limbs, and
four fingers and five toes, a round
front to their head, and with six
external gills which they lose later
when they become land animals.
The gills are absorbed and hence
forth the salamanders breathe byt
means of lungs. Some of the sala
manders are being preserved in spir-,
its and celluloid casts are being made
of some of them. It is very often
the case that a celluloid cast of an
animal, has advantages for exhibition
purposes over the animal itself. This
is especially so in the case of fish
and snakes which are not at all easy
to make look well in museum cab
inets. Many Animals Are Included
In our classification of animals to
day all back-boned creeping things
that are covered with horny scales,
and which from their birth breath by
lungs only, as crocidiles, tortoises,
lizards, and snakes are reptiles.
Frogs, toads, newts and salamanders
are the amphibia, the smallest of the
great groups of backboned animals.
Amphibians are animals that live
both in water and on land.
They are a group of animals that
seem to have had their day long ago.
We find them as fossils in the rocks
as far back as the time when the
forests and swamps existed that are
now represented by Fennsylvanian
coal. In those days some of them
were big fellows, judging by the size
of their skeletons but as a group the
amphibia were never to be compared
with either reptiles or mammals.
One fossil amphibian who's re
mains have been found in Germany
and England had a skull three feel
long. The remains of one found in
Switzerland about a yard in total
length so much resembled the skele
tons of a diminutive man that it
was long mistaken jor one. A
learned paper was written about it
early in the eighteenth century en
titled "Man a Witness of the De
luge," only of course it was in Latin
as such things were at that time.
Salamanders Have Enemies
Salamanders have many enemies
with which they must contend. They
are used by the Japanese for food,
are used for bait by fisherman, and
are consumed in large numhers by
fish. Common Bait is poison to the
Amphibia so seas, salt lakes, and
plains encrusted with salt prevent
their spreading unless they travel ac
cidently upon floating . trees. Also
they don't flourish where there is
much lime. I
There are many things to which
the name salamander has been given.
Far back in the history of humanity
there came in the notion that the
salamander was an animal that lived
and bred in fire. That notion has
come down through history. Ancient
people regarded the Universe as
made up of four elements, earth, air,
water, and fire. In the magnificient
decorations that have recently been
placed on the ceilings of the Ne
braska State Capitol you will find oc
cupying a principal position the em
blems of these elements, earth, air,
water, and fire.
The salamander has been connect
ed with many events in history, being
used as an emblem and standard by
several countries. One of the best
accounts of the salamander appears
in the autobiography of Benvenuto
Cellini, the Florentine sculptor of the
sixteenth century. "One day," he
said, "When I was about fifteen
years of ago my father was Jn a
cellar where they had been scalding
some clothes for washing. He was
alone, and was playing upon the biol
and singing in front of a good fire
of oakwood.'for the weather was very
cold. On looking at the fire acci
dently, he saw a small animal re
sembling a lizard gambolling joyous
ly in the midst of the fiercest flames.
My father instantly perceiving what
it was, he called my sister and me,
pointed out the animal to us, and
gave me a severe box on the ear,
which caused a deluge of tears. He
gently wiped my eyes and said to
me, "My dear boy, I did not strike
you as punishment, but only that
you Bhould remember that that lizard
which you behold in the fire is a
salamander an animal which has
never been seen by any known per
son I He afterwards kissed me and
gave me some pocket money."
Mr. Collins concluded his talk with
the explanation that all this fable
connected with scientific study can
not be included with the recording of
the cold facts, but that such a tack
ground makes the study much more
interesting.

Even a heel can have good manners,
and carry a quiet, easy dignity
wherever it goes.
That's why you see rubber heels on

and hear less of the clump

Of all rubber heels, Goodyear
