THE DAILY NKRRASKAN
CAfvdlPflJSOEY
A PERFECT CLIMAX TO THE
ll're-L'hristnins festivities, the Journalism
mnquet to be held tonight nt the Univer
sity Club. One ot those renewed occa
sions when members of the fourth estate
.rather for a guy evening, it's an event
hut no real journalist should miss. Bern
ard Jennings, man about the world (he!
loesn't confine himself to the United
plates, but toots off to the Orient or Eu
rope every now and then) is slated as one
f the principle speakers, and JIarie San
loz, author of Nebraska's saga, Old Jules,
will talk to budding reporters. Such outstanding speeches,
coupled with the good old toasts, unci a superb steak dinner,
should prove an excellent drawing card, and students of the
school of journalism will miss a real treat if they're not at the
University Club tonight.

Much Promise
In Way Scarlet
Trounced Brigham.
By Arnold Levin.
'Broadbeam's" boys did
Tuesday night. In very convincing
and thorough manner. In the man
ner that should send a little ripple
of merriment leap-frogging down
the vertebrae of Cornhusker fans.
If "Broadbeam's" boys pull the
same stunt in the next few games
that ripple is going to become
crescending wave and all Husker
land is going to sit up nights to
watch.
Brigham Young was rated
higher than Nebraska. No doubt
of it. They'd played several games
had an all veteran quintet. Who
wouldn't rate them higher? But
that didn't make any difference to
Nebraska. Brigham Young was so
much cannon fodder.
The first half of that game is
much more expressive and also
Impressive than the last half. It
was in those opening minutes that
the Scarlet showed they were truly
good basketball team out for
victory. Rehashing that opening
period from the record books
Brigham Young was held to only
three field goals. That is going
some. That means either that Ne
braska had the ball all the time,
or else that Nebraska's defense
was of the unapproachable variety.
Both were true. Nebraska had the
ball practically all the time, but
not only because the offense kept
it circulating speedily and ac
curately but also because the de
fense covered Brigham Young like
a tent. An unpenetrable tent, and
one in which there were no flaws.
The second half didn't look so
good. The Nebraska second-stringers
couldn't in any way compare
with their teammates. The Ne
braska subs, in fact, looked down
right weak. That may trouble

Browne later in the season, espp
cially when it comes to playing
two and three games a week and
capable reserves not only come in
handy but are a prime requisite.
There is, however, much good ma
terial on the second lineup that
may be developed into Class A
stuff before the season is much
more under wey. That would
solve Browne's problem nicely.
Hank Whitaker was especially
brilliant Tuesday. His floor work
scintillated any place within
range of the basket he was dead
eye. Diminutive, he gets around
big men with ease. Sure and ac
curate, his passes bang into re
ceivers' hands forecfully and con
vincingly. Future performances of
this nature will place him among
the leaders of the Big Six confer
ence cagers.
A star who will grace the coli
seum court In Nebraska colors
for another two years was un
covered against Brigham Young.
There was a lot of talk about this
Bob Parsons but some skeptics de
manded they see him in action be
fore forming an opinion. I was
one of them. I didn't believe his
long shots could be depended on
for points. He convinced me Tues
day night. Five of those long loop
ers smacked the basket pretty as
you please. In this respect he ex
cels his brother Bud, last year's
Nebraska star. Defensively, he
kept his man covered well and
kept the Husker besket out of
the dangerous scoring range.
George v ahlquist turned in a
nice job, not only nabbing second
place in the matter of points
scored, but also leading the team
in floor, play and defensive work.
Lanky Ebaugh, with Parsons a
sophomore, controlled the tip with
ease while he was in th game.
His 6 feet 6 completely cutreached
his opponents. He and Parsons are
cinch starters.
' By DICK KUNZMAN.
hill Homey, assistant director of intranmrals, was slumped
over his coliseum business counter 'Wednesday, his face cupped
in bis hands mid a worried frown wrinkling his forehead, won
dering when, if ever, the (jreek fraternities were going to send
in their winter Rport entries. The chubby commander of Husker
intramural details was practicallyO
bald from "tearing his hair" over
the failure of the fraternities to
send in their basketball and swim
ming rosters on time.
Thursday Swim Deadline.
With Thursday afternoon at C
o'clock established as the deadline
for the swimming tournament to
be staged an hour later, only a
scattering of entries were in the
intramural office Wednesday att
ernoon. And Tuesday, the original
deadline for cage lists, found sev
eral fraternities still missing from
the ranks of the basketball con
testants. -
In one final effort to draw in
enough splashing clubs by Thurs
day at 6 o'colck to make the pool
tournament at least a contest,
Hornev is issuing a special plea to
the Greek houses to swamp the in
tramural office with entries to
day. J
Action waniea.
It doesn't make an enormous
amount of difference to Homey
whether or not he has to worn
Thursday evening. But he rather
feels that in view of the success
of the water polo tournament, the
fraternities will be falling down in
their athletic obligations to them
selves bv not competing in the
swimming tournament.
The basketball situation Isn't so
depressing. In fact, 20 houses out
of a possible 28 have entered A
teams and twenty-four have filed
B teams. Houses falling to enter
an A club are Delta Sigma Lambda
and Theta XI, and B teams are
still awaited from Xi Put Phi.
Theta Chi, Phi Gamma Delta and
Alpha Sigma Phi.
Final Entries Due.
Homey, In order to secure a 100
percent representation, has ex
tended the final filing date to
Thursday at 6, at which time both
cage and swimming entries must
be completed. Altho satisfied with
the turnout as compared with the
splashing situation, he believes that
a full representation is possinie,
and that fraternities owe it to the
men who desire to play but are
not capable of making a first team
to file a B team.
Due to the tardiness of filing,
the cage schedules cannot be ar
ranged before Christmas vacation.
Thev will be distributed lmmecii
ately afterwards, and competition
will ccr-yncnce the wcck rouow
ing.
During tnat ween, learns are
welcome to check out balls and
limber uo for the campaign. How
ever, they must get a permit irom
the intramural office, which will be
ODen everv afternoon after J 2, in
order to present it to tne janitor
downstairs. No practicing will be
allowed without a permit, riorney
emphasized.

U. S. Hog Exports
Decrease; Danube
Exports Increase
AMES, la., Dec. 19. While ex
ports of United States hog prod
ucts have declined in recent vears,
shipments from the Danube Basin
have been increasing, Iowa State
college extension agricultural eco
nomists declared today.
The Danube Basin has about the
same type of agriculture as the
central Mississippi Valley and
raises many hoes. Exports from
this area have been going mainly
to Germany and England former
ly the two best markets for our ex
cess lard and pork, the economists
explained.
"Germany and England, not to
mention other less important coun
tries that have also quit buying
our pork and lard, have increased
their purchases from Hungary and
Yugoslavia because thev have been
able to make satisfactory trade
agreements with those countries,"
the economists pointed out. "Trade
barriers in the United States ham
per the importing of foreign prod
ucts that might lie exchanged for
our hog products.
Pork and lard exports from tin-
Danube Basin during the first ten
months of 1935 totaled about .03
million pounds as compared with
21 million pounds exported durine
the same months of 1934. Average
exports from this section for the
five years previous to 1934 were
14 million pounds.

LAWRENCE, V . Dec. 19.
Facing a season's competition with
one of the shortest centers in the
Big SiJc conference, Dr. Forrest C.
Allen, basketball coach at the Uni
versity of Kansas, is directing his
attention to defense.
In so doing, Dr. Allen is simply
following the plans of the past, for
the record over the years shows
that with few exceptions it has
been the effective defense that,
aided Kansas to its long string of
championships. Defensive strength
is shown, it is assumed, by the
lowness of the scores of oppo
nents, just as offensive strength
is shown by the magnitude of
scores that can be accumulated by
a team.
On tho basis of lowness of op
ponents scores, Kansas has never
dropped farther down than third
in the conference, in the seven
years of the Big Six. Even in the
unhappy year of 1929, when Kan
sas finished fifth in the conference
standing of games won. and was
actually low offense team, it rank
ed third in defense strength.
In the four years in which Kan
sas was conference champion
1931. 1932, 1933, and 1934 the
Jayhawkers showed the strongest
offense for the fir3t two years, and
ranked second on defense, and in
the other two years, when the of
fense slipped to third place against
such aggressive teams as Okla
homa and Missouri, the defense
tightened to an average of 23.6 In
1933 and 23.5 in 1934. In the lat
ter year, no conference game went
above 25 points of an opponent,
altho Oklahoma in a non-conference
game, did get to 2(5.
An even better record was made
in 1923, when "Keep 'em in the
'terns." was the battle cry, and
the average of Kansas' opponents
that year was 16.5 points per
game, and 23 was the high effort
of an opponent from among pres
ent members of the Big feix.
