Cunningham Is Expected to
Break Mile and Half
Mile Records.
Several records are in danger
this coming Friday and Saturday
at the Lincoln Memorial stadium
as the fight for the title in the Big
Bix track and field meet takes
place. Preliminaries are dated for
Friday with all the finals to be
staged Saturday, May 20.
Gl.nn Cunningham, outstanding
Kansas distance ace, is expected
to lower both the mile and the half
mile standing while Heye Lamber
tus of the Husker squad may slice
a little off the low hurdle mark.
Don Gray of Nebraska is expected
to lengthen the broad jump record
if his knee infection becomes well
by then. Ben Marks, of Oklahoma,
might be able to add something to
the javelin throw record and the
Oklahoma relay team is cracked
up to bid well for a new mark.
Coach Schulte bases his main
hopes in the well balanced team of
the Cornhuskers. Formerly the
Husker squad tied with Oklahoma
for the Big Six indoor title with a
score of 33 to 33. Kansas is also
favored to be right up in the
money for the championship, pre
senting a very strong team.
Up to date the Schulte squad has
be;n hindered by favorable wea
ther conditions for training while
both the southern teams have had
much better luck in their training
activities.

AMES, la. Courses in the new
field of vacuum tube engineering
will be made available to students
of electrical engineering at Iowa
State college next year following
receipt of a shipment of 35 vacuum
tubes representing the latest de
velopment of scientific labora
tories. The new tubes are of twenty dif
ferent varieties. With all of their
auxiliary equipment and meters
they will, provide an opportunity
for electrical engineering students
to study recent developments in
the application of vacuum tubes to
the control and transformation of
electricity in manufacturing pro
cesses and power distribution.
The tubes are entirely distinct
from the types used in radio engi

EIGHT ELECTED TO

Superintendent
At Halt on.
The department of educational
service has received definite infor
mation of the following elections

tions: E. J. Lowry, M. A. '32. elect
ed superintendent at Dalton; Lo
rine Erison, elected to teach his

SIX ENGINEERS GO
RE FORE COURT AND
THROWN INTO TANK
Failure to Do Work on
Displays Is Cause
Of Forced Rath.
Never cross an engineer!
Six of those worthy men whe
make electricity band to their will,
conduct "believe it or not" expirl
ments, and draw intricate dia
grams which only themselves can
understand will probably make
sure that future engineers will noi
shirk their duty of working tc
make certain the success ot inc.
pride and joy Engineer's Week.
These students because of tneii
negligence were unexpectedly sum
moned before a kangaroo court
held Monday morning and after
hearing sentence duly pronounced
were unceremoniously dipped into
the cold waters of a horse tank.
But the ignomity of the whole af
fair appeared when the austers
and sedate judge was ducked him
self after his most humane deci
sion. The ones "christened" were
chosen from a list of students who
failed to give their all to Engi
neers' Week. In each case the ver
dict was that the victim be tanked.
W. H. Congdon, Mason Butcher,
Frank Odda, Carl Erb, Mario
Smith, and the judge, Rudolph
Basta were the culprits bathed.
The large horse tank procured
from a downtown store was placed
in front of the A. M. building and
the court was conducted by stu
dents from the Civil Engineering
department.
With the exception of one man,
the only misdemeanor charged
was failure to work on displays
but in the case of Mario Smith the
decision included what the Engi
neers believe is another cause for
complaint. The legal sounding de
cision as handed down in court in
Smith's case read as follows: Mar
io Smith shall be tanked for in
fraction of the code of ethics of
the American Society of Civil En
gineers which states, "It shall be
unprofessional to advertise in self
laudotory language or in other
manner derogatory to the dignity
of the profession."

PHOTOS OF GOLDEN

IN HUMOR EXCHANGE
Five Nebraska Women Are
Portrayed in May Issue
Of Out
"Cawn fed, well bred, nuff sed
Nebraska' - Girls of the Golden
Wrest That is what the Owl, the
humor publication of the Temple
university, Philadelphia, Penn.,
thinks of the coeds attending Ne
braska. In the May issue of the
Owl, five Nebraska university
girls were portrayed. Two center
pages of the magazine are devoted
to the pictures of th girls.
Pictures of Pat Miller, this year's
"Nebraska Sweetheart," Delta
Gamma, Lucile Hitchcock, presi
dent of Alpha Omicron Pi and a
member of Mortal' Board, Flor
ence Dixon, Chi Omega. Frances
Jane McEvoy, Alpha Phi, and
Jane Steel, Pi Beta Phi were elect
ed as representative of Nebraska
beauty.
"With .his issue the Wise Old
Bird takes a deep bow. and grate
fully acknowledges the Nebraska
"Awgwan" as co-conspitator in
presenting these cawn fed beau
ties as the first of a monthly sup
plement featuring America's Betty
Coeds," says the Owl, "If you're
one of those old meanies who be
lieve beauty is only skin deep a
quick look at the "pasts" of this
month's bevy should convince you
that beauty can also be a mark
for brains."
The staff of the Owl unani
mously agreed that the pictures
added very greatly to the attrac
tiveness of the magazine, accord
ing to a letter H. Francis Cun
ningham, editor of the Awgwan,
received from George L. Waller,
jr., editor of the Owl. "I wish to
state that we were very pleased to
publish such undeniably attractive
photos," he writes.
"This, the most complimentary
exchange the Awgwan has ever
received, pleases me very much,"
stated Cunningham.

Uniting th sam old phrases and
expressions will soon be broken by
the event of the returning of Mr.
"Mumps" Marvin who will no
longer be "Mumps" this Tuesday.
Thus the following day, Wednes
day his presentation of sports and
of Conference Catches will be
ready for your approval.
Bob Morris surely proved his
worth hy winning the mile run in
Saturday's event in the record
time of 4:32.5 seconds. Bob has
been consistently breaking rec
ords and fast times throughout
the state all year long. He is a
very conscientious trainer and
diligent performer. He is also an
expert swimmer, and this has done
much toward building up his en
durance. The Corncob pledges at the Uni
versity of Nebraska don't realize
just how lucky they really are. At
the University of Oklahoma the
Ruf Neks, Oklahoma pep body,
made all their pledges, of whom
the.e are fifty, go through a 15
minute ordeal before the first
Sorner-Oklahcma Aggie baseball
gaTe. Each pledge had to bring
a safety razor, not a straight
edge, a shaving brush, shaving
soap and a small bucket and pass
in turn before the cold water
drinking fountain at the base'call
field, filling the buckets. Follow
ing this they wcra required to re
move a three weeks growth of
beard with the given equipment
mentioned above. I wonder if
their dates that night thought a
cross-cut saw hit them?
Coach Schulte thinks that this
Don Roberts of Trenton, who won
the 100 in his group in 10.3 and
rnado the host time of the meet in
the 220, is one of the fastest high
school sprinters ever to run on the
Nebraska track. You may wonder
about s.uch a statement. De-cause
his time has been beaten bv many
However Coach Schulte says that
this is due to his slow start. He
is always behind at the start and
doesn't get out of his holes quickly
at an.
Petz surely demonstrated his
ability of remaining a top notch
hurdler in the Minnesota track
meet by defeating Scheifley, who
placed first in the high hurdles at
the Drake relays. In the time of
14.8 seconds. Petz ran unattached
as he has had three years of com
petition. This is a remarkable
performance considering the fact
that he has not been running in
competition as has Captain Scheif
ley.
Gymnastics is becoming much
more popular here at the univer
sity of late. Many of the athletes
are taking to it and enjoy it great
ly. Some have formed a gymnas
tic club and have elected officers
and this has tended to create fur
ther interest in the sport. In my
opinion gymnastics is a very beau
tiful and thrilling sport to watch,
as much grace and co-ordination is
required for its performance. It
is primarily a sport of skill and
thus fits in with the modern trend
of all sports.
STAFFS CONTINUE TO MEET
Publicity Group of Y.W.C.A.
Is at Work on New
'N' Books.
The finance, publicity, confer
ence, membership and program
and office staffs of the Y. W. C. A.
will continue to meet altho all
other "Y" activities have closed
for the year. The publicity staff is
now working on the "N" book
which is issued each fall to fresh
men. The membership staff is writ
ing letters to all students who ex
pect to attend the university next
year for the first time.

ONE DAY STRlKt
Dropping of Instructor
Causes Uprising
Monday.
More than 500 students of the
Columbia university ignored their
classes and spent the day on
strike which later turned into
riot Monday because of the drop,
ping of Donald Henderson, an in.
structor who has taken part in
numerous radical activities. The
riot turned into a free for all fight
which was promptly checked by
police.
Dicge Rivers, the Mexican artist
whose work at Rockefeller Center
was recently halted by the Rocke-
fellers, was speaking when some
one attempted to bind a black gag
around the head of the statue of
Alma Mater. Fighting broke out
among the hundreds of students
and outsiders assembled on the
campus and police charged the
throng. One man was arrested
who was described by police as an
unemployed individual.
After groups of students went
through classrooms to urge stu
dents to join, several classes were
dismissed. Sometime during the
day a black draped coffin was de
posited at the base of the alma
mater statue, red letters proclaim
ing "Here lies academic freedom."
Among speakers to address the
striking students was Alfred Bing.
ham, Yale graduate, editor of the
"Common Sense" and son of U. S.
Senator Bingham of Connecticut,
He told them that students over
the country were becoming politi
cally conscious, that they could re
main between "old world stupid
ity" and "new thought."
