to bring their record to the 7-polnt
level. With a half minute left to
iro. Connellev sunk the second
Sooner bucket of the period.
Nebraska came back after the
ball with a rejuvenated combina
tion, Parsons sank one from long-
ranre and Wlhtaker followed lm
mediately with two more to put the
score on a 16-9 count. Whitaker
took the sphere from two Soonera
and tipped In his third in succes
sion as the crowd stood on its feet
in a roaring cheer. Whitaker's first
penalty of the half brought forth
the first ot many louowing doos,
an Item in which the first stanza
had been noticeably and not unde
slrablv lacking.
Oklahoma started in sinking a
series of eratis flips, and after
Wahlquist and Whitaker had ac
counted for two more buckets, put
the melee on a 22-14 accounting.
Whitaker took the ball after a dis
play of wonderful passing on the
f art of the Nebraskans and put It
hru the target to set the crowd

From there on out it was all Ne

show, altho Oklahoma got in a

Whitaker had a very successful

Parsons ritled in four of his long-

ARNOLD LEVINE -j
Kansas State seems to have
taken a dltrtlnct aversion to Ne
braska athletics, athletes, and
everything about the Husker
school thnt smacks of physical
prowess. The Wildcats were not
only content to cop the Big Six
football crown from Huskerland.
but now they've gone and done it
in track, too.
Of course, Coach Henry F.
Schulte and his Red Jcrseyed
scairtyclads are not ready to give
up the Big Six track title yet.
Kansas State won an indoor dual,
but what's an Indoor track meet
more or less when there's a couple
of conference and many more tri
angular and dual affairs left on
the Husker schedule? Not much,
says the Indian from his raised
tepee in the stadium, not mucn
And you can take his word for
that.
The invading Wildcats did take
some of the wind out of the Ne
braska high flying track kite, but
It was only the relay event that
finally placed the score on the vie
tor's side of the fence. And Coach
Schulte is now pointing for the
next meeting of the two schools
the indoor conference. There's still
lots of hope, prowess, and what
not left In the sunken camp of
Husker trackland. That Kansa
State loss was a blow, of course,
but thnt doesn't mean that Ne
braska's going to go down for a
knockout. Not much!
TEXANS MAY APPEAR
E
Ward Haylett presented a well
rounded-out, strong track team
last Saturday in the stadium. He
bad a couple of stars on that team
who look good enough for plenty
of points in the conference
O'Reilly and Knappenberger, the
former a distance runner, the inr.
ter a sprinter and hurdler. Each
won two first, O'Reilly the mile
and half, Knappenberger both the
hurdle events. Knappenberger also
placed in the 60-yard dash. Paced
by these two men, Kansas State
seems right now to be the team to
beat for the conference title,
American students in Germany,
it was reported this week, have a
nifty way of getting even for the
way they are required to give the
nazi salute. Students who have re
cently returned say they simply
grin, exchange a wink, raise their
hands and lustily shout, "Heel
Hitler!"
But "Pa" Schulte's not afraid
When the conference meet rolls
around, there are going to be a
lot more men entered in each
event, and those men are going to
cut in on the Kansas State and
Nebraska performers. But when
the final tabulations are down In
the w 11 known and universally ac
cepted black and white, the iron
haired track mentor still ha hign
hopes of seeing his team on to.
Coach Schulte Is right up in the
air now. Not only figuratively
but literally. The good coach found
that the dirt floor of the stadium
was a pretty bad thing to stand on
all afternoon, especially wnen at
tempting to avoid influenza, cold
breezes eddying back and forth on
the sod bottom caused cold feet, so
"Pa" got several of his huskies to
gether and they erected a dais, on
the top of which Is a revolving
chair. Now the Husker mentor
can roll around to follow the prog
ress of his men as they circum
navigate the oval, or lean back an1
drag at his cigar In peace, or sit
straight upright while bawlinj in
structions. It's really quite ar ' i
r. vation. that chair. And it's Hg'n
enough to give Coach Schulte a
clear view of all proceedings.
Kansas U. swallowed a lot of
track pride and took a terrific
beating from Kansas State. Ter
rific for Kansas, that is. But it
was to be expected. When Glenn
Cunningham and Ed Hall left
Mount Olympiad. 30 points in the
Big Six meet went with them. And
not only those two, hut other Kan
sas point winners in the confer
ence meet also took their way out
of competition. So Bill Hargiss
waa left perched high and dry on
his frowning track heights, with
but some fond memories of a great
sprinter, and a world record beater
distance man and a few left overs
to start building a 1935 team. So
it's no wonder that Kansas State
gave the Jays a great big dose of
fast stepping poison.

Oklahoma Baseball Mentor
Announces Additions to
'35 Program.
NORMAN, Feb. 18. Four
strong Texas teams may appear
on the University of Oklahoma's
baseball schedule this year In ad
dition to threo "Big Six" confer
ence opponents and the leading
state schools, Lawrence "Jap"'
Haskell, coach, announced today.
"We have a home and home
series with Texas Christian and
assurance of two games each with
Texas, Texas Aggies and Baylor
on a week's trip provided we can
get together on dates. Also, the
Texas Aggies, Southwest confer
ence champions, may come to Nor
mnn for n two game series right
after we play Texas Christian
here," Conch Haskell declared.
"We'll also play nine "Big Six"
games, three each with Nebraska
and Kansas State during a week's
road trip early in May, and three
with Missouri at Norman."
The Rooner prospects are only
mediocre, Haskell confesses. Bill
Winford, star sophomore pitcher of
last year, has Jumped to the
Kansas City Blues. So has Adolph
Stoup, burly outfielder. Gene
Nance, star freshmen shortstop
has been signed by the New York
Yankees, Jimmy Craddock, crack
sophomore right-hander, is ineligi
ble. And Roy Myers, probably
greatest centerfielder ever devel
oped In the history of the univer
sity, may not return to school.
Haskell Is trying to develop
Johnie Hunter, former pitcher,,
into a catcher since Hunter has
size, a good ai m, and caught some
last summer. He will be under
studied by Joe Shapiro, whose sore
arm is coming back; and perhaps
by Kinnear, who has lots of chat
ter; and Tee Connellcy of the
Sooner basketball team.
The pitching staff will have
Travis Hinsnn, veteran, three
sophomores, Merle "Hook" Cole
man, Howard Parks and George
Martin; and perhaps Ken Little of
the Sooner spring football squad.
Infielders include five veterans,
Clarke, Hardwlck, Amend, Cobb
and Turner, and also Ira Monroe,
experienced sophomore, and Edgar
"Fudge" Warren, squad man; and
two other sophomores, Allan Mars
and Bob Watson. Delmar Steln
bock, catcher, may be used in the
Infield this season.
Outfielders available are
Claunch and Brakeblll of last
year's team, and John Lewis, Jay
Thomas, Rudolph Tone, Mac Bor
ing and Connelley.
The Sooner squad has been prac
ticing for two weeks now.
