hut one of their mainstays is back
this year, tht being lom

has not onlv aspirations to win

win its third consecutive title "out j

have estab'ished. McDermott is

out-standing.
Other quintets in the Big Six
are yet more or less of an unknown

can figure that the 1S30 cage race
will be a thrilling event and closely

Tor the firat time In history a
N'ebrnka Comhuaker football
player will line up with the weat
trn al atar in their annual game
In San Francisco on New Year'
d.iv. C!alr Sloan. Comhuiker
fuiback. hat accepted an invita-
tl0n t0 Dav on the wett eleven
thia year, leaving for the wett
coast Dec. 16. A peculiar Inci
dent happened thia year a the
coaches aelected their player for
the big claaslc. Richard of Ne
braska received an invitation
from Coact Hanley of Northwest
ern to pliy on the al star eastern ;
eleven
which Richards accepted. '
Later in the week both Richards ;
"no
Trom
nd Sloan received invitationa l
the western oficials to play i
on the western eleven. Of course
Richards did not back down on
the eastern Invitation and did not
accept the western bid. So when
the two atar elevena from the
country line up at Frisco on Jan.
1, two Cornhuskers will be oppoe
Ing each other In the game Rirh
arda In the line for the eaet and
Sloan In the backfield for the
west.
The three tie games that ive-
braska turned in this season in ,
football, two of which were In
the Big Six. have caused the con
ference moguls down at Kansas
City to debate on the matter and
it was recommended that a tie
game be counted a half game
won and a half game lost. Ne
braska was tied this season by
Oklahoma and Missouri thereby
winning but three games out of
the conference loop. Action on
this matter was discussed along
with other matters of business re
garding the two year old confer
ence which took the place of the
old Missouri Valley conference
which was composed of ten mem
bers. Another thing which was
brought up in the Big Six meet
ing and to which we favor most
highly Is the nine game football
pcheiule. Football coaches sug
gested that the conference schools
increase their schedules one more
game although this did not come
as an official recommendation.
Nebraska in 1P2S played a nine
game schedule after receiving per
mission from the B;g Six direc
tors which did seem to be too
heavy a schedule for the Husker
eleven but considering the fact
that the Nebraska eleven was
playing Pittsburgh, Syracuse,
Army and the regular conference
elevens with Montana State
thrown in for a breather. A de
sirable nine game schedule with
two intersectional batles lined up
8;id two games of the more or
less easy type would be a satls
tactory schedule for the gridiron
season. The majority of the Pa
cific coast schools p'.ay a nine or
ten game schedule while a great
number of the eastern schools
with the exception of the Big Ten
schools play
a nine game cara
each fail.
The other things the moguls of j
the conference took up that seems
to b: highly favorable and that is
compelling freshman teama to
play their games within the con
ference each season. Last year
the directors alowed the yearling
elevens two games a year and
this the first year, found many of
the Big Six freshman teams play
ing outside the conference which
wasn't just what was expected.
Of the Big Six football elevens,
Kansas ggies will be hit hardest
by graduation, losing nine grid
iron warriors in the spring. Ne-t-imska
will love eitrht which In
cludes PJc.hards, Sioan and Cap

seven griddcrs in the spring. Tak
ing the conference aa a whole,
only 42 footballers who were seen
In action this fall will be missing
next vear. out of more than two
hundred this is a low percentage
and next fall should find the Big
Six sisters stronger than ever
before with a close fight on deck
for the 1930 championship. The
Missouri squad is hit hard wV.h

Washington County
Posfpstrs Painting
Valued at $100,000
Nebraska has its art as well as
Its football teams and tall corn.
Perhaps in tne near future the
university will be the owner of a
picture that could be sold for over
$100,000 to any museum in the
east.
This picture now rests in the
vaults of the Washington county
court house located at Blair, Neb.
It was painted by Raphael
or Michael Angelo and portrays
the figure of Christ carrying the
cross.
An interesting story clings to
the picture which makes it even
more a relic that would be highly
valued by any collector of art. It i
the nineteenth century a young I
nobleman and a peasant girl were
married and because of their class
distinction had to leave their na
tive country which was Germany.
In fleeing to this country they
managed to steal this picture, and
by a clever bit of work, hid it from
the Immigration- authorities and
located In a small eastern Ne-
brafka town. The young couple
tried to farm but it proved to be
an utter failure although they
managed to live In a very respect
ale way. It was later learned that
they received money from Ger
many every month.
Their child died, and the father
who was not in verv good health
also died as a result of his grief
of his child's death. With Uiese
two deaths the wife hi a nervous
breakdrwn and finally lost her
mind. People allowed ber to live
alone and one night the house
broke out In flames. In putting out
the flames the men found the pic
ture and recognizing Its value
turned it over to the county au
thorities. Critics from the University of
Nebraska Judged it as a work of
either Raphael or Michael Angelo
and to back up this statement cri
tics from New York City also gave
the aame opinion.
