OF Mi TEAM
Cyclone Track Coach Thinks
His Quartet Best Iowa
State Has Had.
AMKS, la. Bob Simpson. Cy
clone track coach, will go to the
annual Kansas Relays baturday
with a two-mile relay quartet
which he believes Is one ot the best
he has ever produced at Iowa
State. He believes that the team
that heads his crack four will have
to shatter the existing Kansas Re
lay record of 7:52.4 for that event.
The veteran runners, all of whom
have proved themselves capable of
beating the clock to two minutes
in leisurely tryouts this spring, are
Charles Henderson of Coin, Lloyd
Nagel of Ames, PJarl Labertew of
Inuianola, and Lyle Chapman of
Chicago, 111.
Labertew holds the Big Six half
mile record of 1:55 and has been
clocked in 1:58 this spring, Nagel
won the conference indoor cham
pionship this year, Chapman won
the K. C. A. C. mile and set a new
record at the meet in Kansas City
this year, and loafed around the
track a half mile in 1:58 this
spring, and Henderson has been
winning honors in th 440-yard dash
this season.
Glenn Cooper of Marshalltown,
pole vaulter, Roland Meyers of
Clear Lake, discus thrower, and
Ike Nelson of St. Joseph, Mo., will
accompany the relay team to
Lawrence and compete in the
events named.
POOL DENIES PINES

ton became sufficiently interested
in arguments of Dr. Bessey to es
tablish a federal reservation near
Halsey in Thomas county.
First trees in this reservation
were planted in 1903, and were
seedlings from the northern for
ests. Dr. Bessey was also interested
in finding grasses and plants suit
able for forage in the sand hill re
gion. Dr. Pool, In his statement de
clared that ' botanists and other
scientific men thruout America
and in other parts of the world
have agreed it was because of Dr.
Bessey's vigorous recommendations
that tree planting in che sand hills
was started. In conclusion Dr.
Pool stated:
"The success that has followed
the work from its beginning has
been a remarkable contribution to
ihe wise forethought and detailed
suggestions that Dr. Bessey made
thruout his life In the state."
"That anyone should state
that he was opposed to or that he
endeavored to discourage tree
planting in any form in Nebraska
is enviously an admission of a very
slight acquaintance with Dr. Bes
sey and the service which he ren
dered to Nebraska during his resi
dence here from 1886 to 1915."

STUDENTS TRY TO
HIDE KNOWLEDGE
SAYS DR. STOKE
That the average college student
is a fourflusher was vigorously de
nied by Dr. H. D. Stoke of the po
litical science department when
commenting upon an editorial in
the Tulai.e Hullaballoo.
"He deals largely in generaliza
tions and platitudes to cover up his
asininity, and boredom is his
screen against exposure," says the
Tulanc paper.
"On the contrary." declares Mr.
Stoke. "I think it is the tendency
of the average American to be ex
cessively modest concerning what
he knows. He has a horror of be
ing considered highbrow."
"We are prone to converse only
in the vernacular," he continued.
"In fact, the college student, in
stead of airing his knowledge, has
a tendency to conceal the fact that
he has a mentality. He would
rather be called almost anything
than highbrow."
"If you ask the average student
his opinion of any one he will be
most likely to say 'Oh he's all
right, or he's a good egg,' " said
Dr. Stoke. "If you quiz this same
person, you will find that he has
ideas of his own and has really
thought."
"This characteristic of the
American student is directly con
trasted to that of the German stu
dent, who is fond of airing his
knowledge and discussing his
views. The whole American nation
might be said to be afraid of ap
pearing socially different in any
way." explained Dr. Stoke.
"People have blamed the demo
cratic idea bf life in the United
States for this tendency. But the
whole matter is much too involved
to find a specific reason for it,"
he concluded.
Tlieta Sigma Phi Dinner
Postponed lo Next Week
The banquet honoring new initi
ates and graduating seniors of
Theta Sigma Phi, honorary jour
nalistic sorority, has been post
poned to Monday, May 2.
13ACK from the Kansas Relays, a
bunch of determined Huskers
are setting to work preparing to
give a better account of them
selves at the annual Drake car
nival at Dcs Moines Saturday. The
truth of the matter is, the boys are
disgusted with their showing in
the Kansas meet. It won't happen
this week, they aver.
Bright spots among Husker per
formances. The wonderful burst of
speed displayed by Heye Lamber
tus, who was running as anchor
man In the 440 yard relay, com
pared by Ed Weir to the speed ex
hibited by Roland Locke in the lat
ter's heyday. In fifth position as
the final touchoff of the sprint
relay got under way, Heye opened
up to run circles around his oppo
nents and put the Huskers in sec
ond place behind Illinois at the
tape. The Illini won the event in
42 seconds flat, - with Nebraska
placing third in final time com
parisons. Praise also goes to Bob O&tcr
gard for his fine running as a
member of the Nebraska two mile
relay quartet. Bob was clocked in
1:58 for his 880, his time ranking
second only to Alex Wilson, anchor
of the whining Notre Dame team.
Wilson, a member of the Canadian
Olympic team in 1928 stepped his
half mile in 1:56.7. and the Husk
ers haven't stopped talking about
it yet. The Notre Dame flyer is
said to be capable of a 1:52 half.
TV n EMBERS of the Nebraska
squad were unanimous in the
opinion that the rain was the out
standing feature of the relays this
year. Beginning Friday night,
showers fell steadily and continued
through most of the meet program.
The Scarlet team began to believe
they were just a flock of ducks.
The shot putters were having their
troubles, as the lead ball insisted
in sinking clear out of sight on the
soft, sod field.
Although the rain prevented any
attempt at record breaking, some
excellent marks were made.
Schut6's sprinters praised the
work of Thompton of Minnesota in
winning the century in 9.7 second3,
while Capt. George Saling's per
formance in equaling the 120 yard
high hurdle record of 14.6 also
came in for many laudatory re
marks. Bryce Beecher, Indiana
pole vault star, defied a' slippery
runway to clear 13 feet 5 1-2
inches. Orlin Dean . barely missed
13 feet.
Buster Long, that wise cracking
Wyoming cowboy, is on the cam
pus for a few days. One of the
most determined football players
ever to win an 'N," Bus has not
lost any of the fire that made him
a valuable member of Coach
Bible's 1930 team.
Long has been kidding Hugh
Rhea about the latter's 47 foot
heave with the shot at the Kansas
relays. He calls Hugh, "forty
seven." Rhea's toss happened to
be good enough to win first place
and also beat Munn of Minnesota,
the Big Ten champ, but still does
not compare with Hugh's usual
marks.
When Jerry Lee was telling
Monday afternoon about how he
endeavored three different time,
to lay the baton in Heye Lamber
tus' grasp during the 880-yard re
lay at Kansas, Bus offered:
"Why didn't you mail it to
him?"
Carl Sandburg appeared re
cently before an Ohio State audi
ence. Intoning selections from his
poetry, he accompanied himself
with a guitar.
