THE DAILY NEIHUSKAN
THREE
TRYOUTS FOR DUAL
MEET WEDNESDAY
Huskcrs Seek to Compete in
Contest With Kansas
This Saturday.
A torrential rainstorm Inundated
portions of the outdoor track
Tuesday afternoon, forcing the
Schultemcn indoors for a short
workout. A scheduled tricolor
meet was Indefinitely postponed.
Only a few Scarlet and Cream
tracksters reported for rehearsal
Tuesday.
Tryouts will be run off Wednes
day afternoon to determine the
three Huskers vvho will take part
in the pole vault, ' lgh Jump, lave
lin, 120 yard high hurdles, and 220
yard low hurdles, according to
Henry F. Schulte, head track
coach. Three men have been se
lected for each of ttK other events
In the dual meet with Kansas to
be held Saturday In Memorial
Stadium.
The contest will be among Sher
man Cosgrove, Geor;. 5 Gailoway,
Jack Dodd, and Verl Athey In the
pole vault. "Sherm " is a "cinch"
to win In the, tryouts, but the
vaulting strife among Galloway,
Dodd, and Athey should be close.
High Jump Slighted.
High Jumping has been the
slighted field event In Huskerland,
but Floyd Ebaugh, Lloyd Card
well, Lawrence Nelson, and Floyd
Gliesberg are slated to try out.
None of the men have put In much
work at high Jumping, but the
competition should be nip and
tuck.
Gus Peters, Eldon Franks,
Lawrence Nelson, and Floyd Glies
berg are the Javelin candidates.
Peters has done about the best In
the event, altho Franks and Nel
son have the long arm-power to
hurl th" pointed spear quite a dis
tance. Barriers may fall, but the race
will be well worth while watching
when Ken Chapman, Standley
Haight, Bill Gish and Lloyd Card
well stage a tryout in the 120 yard
high hurdle contest. Haight and
Cardwell usually win the event,
but Gish and Chapman are cap
able of doing some fancy surprising-
Another fast contest will be
among Chapman. Haight, Gish,
and Franks in the 220 yard low
hurdle event. No low hurdles
have been run this year by Husk-

champion and two Y. M. C. A.
champions appearing on the Frosh

dicts a close match. The added in
centive of a possible berth on the
1937 mat squad will provide all of
the necessary fire to make these
matches good.

Still one of the most talked of
track events In history Is Roland
"Dipper" Locke's 100 yard dash
at the Drake Relays many years
ago. Locke, running with a "skim
mlng" style In comparison with
the driving manner used by other
runners of his time, and most run
ners today, ran the century over
a rain and wind swept course In
the amazing and record time of
nine and flve-teutha BccondR. The
record still stands in the Drake
Relays, but was disqualified in the
world s annuls because of the wind
that was sweeping the track. Al
though the wind was a dtsadvant
age rather than a help, the "pow'
eis that be" figure any wind at
all as a help and therefore hold
up all records. The "Glppcr" was
the first man to run the century
in less than nine and six-tenths
seconds. His record has been tied
only once, then by Ralph Metcalf
or Marquette, who used startinir
UIOCKS.
Now that the Walker Cup Golf
Team has been picked each and
every sports writer throughout the
country is beefing because the
committee didn't pick the cities
favorite son as a member of the
squad. From Omaha comes the
cry by a writer that his bny
snowed enough ability, polish, ami
promise to make any golf team in
the country. Maybe so, but the
fact remains that the only way to
get real attention is to go out and
win a few tournaments. Until the
player's name appears quite a few
times in the paper, and he be
comes well known to the sporting
public the team pickers will pass
him by again and again.
Speaking of golf, no one can
say that the Husker golf team
isn't doing their bit to bring Ne
braska minor sports to the top
of the program. Winning all of
their matches so far by decisive
margins, they are headed for a
more than successful season. An
interesting sidelight occurred in
the Iowa State-Husker match
whioh took place last weekend.
An Iowa State player dropped
his tee shot in the cup for a hole
in one on a par three hole. Even
this didn't stave off their de
feat tho. Nebraska won hands
down by a huge margin.
The Fredrick Ware-Herbert Gish
discussion on the "Subsidization of
Athletes" which was originally
scheduled for an open student
forum meeting Thursday morning
will be a great meeting if it ever
comes off. Much has been spoken
and much more has been written
about whether or not a college
should seek and hire athletes to
play on their teams. The students
will have an opportunity to hear
two great speakers on the subject
when Fredrick Ware, sports editor
of the Omaha World Herald, and
Herbert Gish, former director of
athletics at Nebraska get together

Hollyrood, one of the three
hoises given a chance to finish
second in the coming Kentucky
Derby, was withdrawn from the
famous race early this week. No
reason was civen other than the
horse had finished last in an im
portant race a week before and
the owner and trainer thought the
horse wasn't in condition. All the
money bet all over the country on
this horse thru the winter books
now goes to the bookies. When
vou lav your money on the table,
and get odds such as are offered
on the winter books, you bet that
the horse will win, place, or show
as you choose. That means if the
horse doesn't go to the post It is
just the same as coming in last.
The horse didn't win, place, or
show, therefore you lose. Some

MIT. CHARM TESTER
AT DANCE
Famous 'It' Recorder Fails
To Register After
Several Tests.
By fnllrre Scnirf.
CAMBRIDGE, Mass, April 28
The famous charm-tester or "It
machine" developed by student en
gineers at the Massachusetts In
stitute of Technology, has blown
up. The potential charm of some
of the potential charmers it tested
was too much for the gadget, they
reported.
So this week, they were trying
to repair the machine, taking pre
cautions that its capacity in the
future will not be so limited.
Overstrained by the electric per
sonality of the girls whose "It"
was tested at a dance recently, the
machine lit up like the aurora bor
ealis and blew every fuse in its
system.
George Levy of Brookline, Mass.,
inventor of the tester by which he
rated the personal magnetism of
the coed guests, and so determined
the admission fees their escorts
had to pay, was a little bit sheep
ish about the machine s failure.
"I guess all that personality was
too much for me," he addmitted.
"I must have got excited and
turned on too much power.
The beauty whose personality
caused the "If" machine to flare
up in a fatal blaze of glory, Levy
said, was Miss Mary Welles At
wood, of Norwood, Mass., a student
at Nasson college in Springvale,
Me. The blueye-eyed blonde was
named "Tech's Girl" and cost her
escort top admission price of $1.35.
Most of the girls averaged near
the "not bad" rating.

CONNING THE
CAMPI
By Arlen Crenihaw
The question of whose "liberty"
that modern Taul Revere, the
American Liberty league, has
been shouting about in Its efforts
to rouse the countryside against
the new deal redcoats was an
swered last week when the league
revealed Its financial backing. Not
historic Boston, but Wilmington,
Delaware and New York City seem
to be the strongholds of the
staunch defender of freedom.
From the powermaking Du
routs of Delaware the league re
ceived $153,250 In loans and con
tributions during the last year.
The Bankers Trust company of
New York, Alfred P. Sloan, jr., of
General Motors and John Rascob
also made sizeable donations to
the Liberty leaguers' 483,257
kitty. Jouelt Shouse, decamped
democrat, as president of the
league, drew $51,000 lor his part
In warning the United Stales
against the new deal menace.
Money for political projects
must come, of course, from large
fortunes and financial interests. In
this Liberty league is no different
from the republican and demo
cratic parties.
In pretending, however, to be
other than what is it a special
interest propaganda group the
Liberty league is offensive. Fights
waged against the administration
by the United States chamber of
commerce and the Manufacturers
association are at least frankly
fought under the aegis of business
interest and not in the grandiose
name of liberty ( From the Mon
tana Exponnet, Montana State col
lege; distributed by College News
Service.)

Mcndcnhall Will Conduct
Poll of Secondary
School Pupils.
NEW YORK, April 28.--Plans
for a poll of secondary school stu
dents in 1,000 "key" communities
thruout the country to discover
what they consider their most Im
portant problems were announced
this week by Dr. Thomas K Mi -denhall
of Lincoln school, Colum
bia university.
Students will be naked, thru
their teachers and principals to
write essays of not more than 0(1(1
words expressing "their own
opinions about the problems fac
ing them. Two sets of prizes, one
for junior nnd one for senior high
school students, will be offered
for the best es.say.
The essays will be judged by
a committee that will include
Judge Ben B. Lindsey of the Su
perior court in Los Angeles, Mrs.
Paul Rittenhouse, national director
of the Girl Scouts: Miss Katheiine
Glover of the United States office
of education, Fairfield Oshorn, jr.,
former state director of the NYA,
and Mrs. Frances M. Foster, editor
of the magazine, Progressive Edu
cation. "This survey will present to the
teaching profession and the public
at large an opportunity to learn
the too-seldom expressed opinions
of youth regarding their own prob
lems, Dr, Mendenhall declared.
"In the past few years there has
been an increasing trend on the
part of young people in this coun
try to take a more serious view
of the problems they are facing.
Adults have given more attention
to these vital problems, but they
have not sufficiently determined
how young people themselves feel
about their problems."
