Fourteen members of Coach
Harold Browne's Cornhusker base
ball team will be selected Satur
day for the Iowa City trip, leaving
here in cars Sunday and opening
the 1031 baseball season in Iuwh
City the following afternoon. Ac
cording to Browne the Husker dia
mond stars are fast rounding into
shape and with the Monday and
Tuesday contests against the Uni
versity of Iowa team as practice
tilts should enter the Big Six race
in midseason form.
The practice tilt which is sched
uled for Saturday afternoon at
Landis field will determine the men
to accompany Coaches Browne
and Black and Athletic Director
Herbert Gish on the Iowa City
jaunt. The party expects to ar
rive in Iowa City Sunday night,
play Monday and Tuesday after
noons, returning to Lincoln on
Wednesday.

trip will be chosen from the fol
lowing players: four hurlers will
be taken to be chosen from Wan
dra, Bittner, Ortgen, Livingston.
Armatis and Recknor. Williams
and Snagg will do the receiving,
both having had varsity experi
ence behind the bat
Either Frankfurt or Davey will
hold down first base, with a pos
sibility that both may make the
trip. At second the player will be
chosen from Beck, Simmon, Leffel
and Levison.
Davison appears lo Lave thf.
shortstop job for the trip, with
Maser scheduled for third base. In

Right field will be selected from
Dempcy, Smith or Brown, with the
possibility that an extra outfielder
will be taken along. Baseball Man
ager Gifford will also accompany
the team and coaches.
Iowa City Strong.
Iowa City has one of the strong
est teams in the Big Ten and
should give the Huskers ample op
portunity to demonstrate their
ability. The Big Six season does
not open until May 1, on which
date the Huskers meet Iowa State
in the opening home game of the
season.
Following the Iowa university
game the Huskers have no other
games scheduled until the opening
of their own baseball conference.
However, Coach Browne will use
the time to polish off whatever de
fects he notices in the Huskers be
fore entering the conference race.

ON BOXING DEFENSE
Declares Ring Sport Is
Perfect for College
Athletes.
PHILADELPHIA. Ta,-"Boxing
i the perfect pport for college men
if the coach in charge of it is weli
crsed in the game." said Primo
Camera, one of the outstanding
contenders for the world's heavy
weight crown, in a recent inter
view with a Pennsylvania report
er. "There are few mentors, how
ever, who leally know the ins and
outfs of the manly art of self-defense
applied to collegiate ath
etic," he added.
"Boys who have not yet attained
the age of IS or 19 should not go
in for boxing in the fullest sense,
but only as a means of developing
self-defense. Their bodies arc not
yet firm, nor are their bones set,
so that any severe blows will in
all likelihood prove injurious to
ihem. Boxing as the art t self
dcVnse for the young man. on the
other hand, is an excellent thing
t'caine it is a means of acquiring
Htlf-confidence. If attacked, he
will not be at a disadvantage and
will be a hi to trade, dodge and
parry blows. It is only through
consistent and regxilar practice
that one can prepare for such an
occasion.
"The right cnet for the boxer is
a very important problem which
every g"od exponent of that spoil
takes in careful consideration. In
order t? be fully prepared for a
match and especially a long one. a
boxer should have no excess
weight, since excess weight flows
the movement and more important
still, a fat body will not take pun
ishment as effectively as one
v hicb is well trained and carries
no unnecessary weight."
"In boxing, speed is the great
asset, not strength, as is com
monly supposed. Blows can be
powerful if delivered with speed,
but if the punches are merely
powerful and slow, they can easily
be avoided by an opponent," com
mented the young giant as he be
gan demonstrating on a punching
bag, the truth of hia statement.
"The would-be mittmen should lay
strews upon developing speed and
upon that alone.
"Consistent and regular practice
is as important to one who is
training In the art of boxing as
well as in the other sciences and
arts. It takes several years before

Fine Arts Class Listens Raptly to
Sermons fo Get Their Course Grade
a fighter has reached his prime,
usually between four and six
years, but this, only under the
condition that he drill faithfully
like any other artist, in order to
acquire the necessary reflexes
which makes for the most effec
tive movements with the minimum
of fatigue.
"During the entire career of a
fighter, he must not take punish
ment unnecessarily because the
head, and the delicate organs of
sight and lwaiiny have not bedi
made by nature to receive ill
treatment. "Some of the points which I
have mentioned in the past lew
minutes." said Primo finally, "are
important ones, which I wish col
lege and university coaches would
realize when they take upon them
selves the responsibility to teach
the "noble art of self-defense' to
undergraduates who have not
reached their maturity in physical
development."
By RAY CASFORD.
"Amen and May tha Lord Bless
You and Keep You" is among the
revival sayings that are being ut
tered with the sermons now being
given in the public spsakinff
chtaatd of Ticf. Hrh Yenne. A
ten minute sermon is required of
all the students registered in the
course of Fine Arts 192. The ser
mons are nil taken from a text or
quotation from the Bible and they
are all in sreiousness. Perhaps
Professor Yenne has hopes of de
veloping a number of his students
into hair-raising fist-shaking re
vivalists with such ability as the
esteemed Billv Sunday. Aimea Mc
pherson and 'Booker T. Washing
ton. The sermon giving episode is
entered into with as much enthu
siastic spirit as was th oratorical
campaign, wliich included the
"Message To Garcia," and "An
thony's Speech Over The Dead
Body of Ceasar." The attitude of
the class toward the speaker is vol
as Keen as when the after dinner
speeches were being given but
considering the various lyprs of
people in the classes p.v.d the vari
ous restrictions placed upon them
it is quite evident that all work un
der a groat handicap.
One member presenting a talk
to the class brought out the fact
that the reason why students do
not attend church more often is
that tne ordinary seiuiuus &e far
over the heads of the average stu
dents. The sermons are all good in
reality but they do imply the prac
tical and modern side that tho
young men nnd women are inter
ested in today.
To be able to address an audi
ence nnd especially an audience
that is as critical and one that
knows all the weaknesses and
faults as do the class, is no easy
taslr. These little touches of stage
fright are easily overcome after
the first few appearances. Stu
dents with no ability at making
public r.ppcarances are taught the
art of e,ve and assurance before
an avdlence.
The courses are not given for
only the benefit of dramatic stu
dents for representatives from the
stadium as one extreme to the Ag
college as another enter into the
work with equal enthusiasm.

SET FOUR RECORDS
n itr 1 "
Leonard
Conklin
By MARK C. PARKER.
In the Absence of Sports Editor
Conklin.
To those students who have
visions of pleasant afternoon dips
in a university pool during the
warm autumn days of September
and October, we sorrowfully, but
earnestly advise them to be pre
pared to dig deep into their
pockets for the usual necessary
rhcclials needed lo swim in a city
pool !
Wednesday Chancellor Buinett
expressed his sincere hopes that
the project could be put thru and
said that it was his great desire
it could be done. "No one ques
tions the need of the pool." he
told a Nebrai-kan reporter, "and it
is the sincere desire of myself, the
rest of the committee, and the en
tire faculty that some plan can be
worked out so Nebraska can hav
a pool of her own.''
Yet. at the same time it was
announced that tha committee,
composed of Dean Thompson and
L. E. Gunderson. would make no
recommendations to the regents
at the meeting Saturday. Accord
ing to the report, the plans for the
proposed pool will be presented
very informaly and the disposition
will rest mainly with the regents.
So. just when the majority of
students of the university were
beginning to think that at last
student promotion had accomplish
ed something definite, the usual
tangle of red tape that apppers to
surround all student undertakings
before they become more than hazy
hopes of reality gums the works!
This noon twenty-seven Corn
husker track and field stars will
leave Lincoln to participate Satur
day in the Kansas relays at Law
rence. The "Indian" has developed
one of the finest well balanced
teams ever to represent Nebraska.
Headed by Rhea and the shuttle
relay team compoesd of Petz.
White. Smutney and Lawson, tbe
Cornhusker squad should make a
creditable showing in the meet
which will be attended by colleges
and universities from thirteen
states.
Rhea, in form, should better the
present Kansas relay record of 49
feet 10 1-2 inches established back
in 1825 by Herb Schwarz of Wis
consin. 'Schulte's shuttle relay
team is the same quartette that
Bmashed the world's indoor carni
val record lor the 320-yard event
at the Illinois indoor carnival.
Tomson and Gray should place
in the broad jump, the Kansas
relay record being a leap of 24
feet 6 7-8 inches made by Jones
of De Pauw in 1924. No one will
be entered in the 10(-yard dash
and both Lamson and Srnutny may
be out of the high hurdle event.
LookR like "Indian" Schuite hcfS
eyes on the Eig Six meet sche
duled for next month rather than
risk further injury to his star
hurdlers.
iNew Marks Chalked Up in
Meet With Haskell
Indian Team.
LAWRENCE. Kas.-The Vni
vcrsity of Kansas trav;:; team set
four new K. U. records in defeat
ing the Haskell Indians in a dual
meet held here, with a score of
88 to 43.
Wilson "P.ustei" Charles, na
tional A. A. LT. decathlon cham
pion last year, set a new Haskell
; record in the high jump oy ciear-
ing 6 feet. 2 3-8 inches. Charles
' also carried off individual scoring
(honors by tallying seventeen
points in addition to running in
the mile relay, which Haskell won.
Joe Klancr of Kansas set a rec
ord of 20.8 seconds in the 220 yard
dash to better the mark of 21.3
seconds set by Lud Grady in 1927.
Kaymond Flick ran the hirh
hurdles in 13 seconds flat, to dis
place the time of 15.4 seconds held
by Hazen. '14, Brady, '21, and
Doornbos. '27.
Bernard Gridley set a mark of
23.6 seconds in the low hurdles,
which betters the former record of
25 seconds set by Kearney. '22,
Doornbos. '27. and Mize, '27. A
brisk breeze from the south blew
over the track during the meet, so
these records may not be accepted
as official.
Clyde Coffman vaulted 13 feet.
7 1-2 inches to beat the record of
13 feet, 3 1-2 inches set by Jim
Bausch. last year.

on hurlers, the squad appears to
be stronger than lust year with
