THE DAILY NEBRASKA!
THREE
TO BATTLE TEXANS
HERE ON MARCH 23
Meet Stages Bout Between
Championship Teams of
Two Conferences.
Two conference championship
swimming teams will battle to the
finish Tuesday at 7:30 when the
Texas Long-horns meet the Corn
huskers in the coliseum pool.
Texas will be upholding the lau
rels of the Southwest conference
while the Minormen will bo wav
ing the Big Six first place flag.
The Southwest representatives
have won the loop crown five
years straight and are undefeated
this season.
League Records at Stake.
Two conference champions and
three conference record holders
will be included in the Texas line
up. Jack Nendell, loop champ, will
swim the 220 yard free style and
the 440 free in Tuesday's meet.
Nendell was defeated by Nagel of
the Texas A. & M. squad last
week as the Longhorns sailed to
a 53-38 victory. Capt. Thurman
Talley will be seen in the 50 yard
free and as the leadoff man of the
400 yard relay team. Talley won
the 50 yard event against the Ag
gies with a time of :24.7. Pete
Hagelin, ace Husker splasher, won
from Voss of Grinnell in a close
race in :20.7.
Longhorn Rollin Baker who
holds the best record in the breast
stroke won the 100 yard event
last week with a time of 1:11.6.
Baker also swims on the 300 yard
medley team. John "Hondo"
Crouch, sophomore member of the
Texas team, holds two conference
marks, but did not compete in
the Aggie meet.
Relay Races Close.
The real contest of the meet
should come when the relay teams
of the two schools come together.
In the Aggie meet the Longhorn
400 yard team composed of Trav
is, Talley, Bergfeld and Nendell
won the event with a time of
4:03.9. Nebraska's team composed
of Krause, Dort, Ludwick and
Thornton salted away the Grin
nell aggregation in 4:04.9, one sec
ond slower than the Texas time.
In the 300 yard medley, the
Texas team of Zwiener, Baker,
and Travis distanced the Aggie
men in 3:26.5. Zwiener will be re
placed by Crouch in the lineup
Tuesday, however. The Husker
team of Ludwick, Thornton and
Dort, coasted to victory against
Grinnell with a time of 3:29.9.
Against Kansas State last month
these same men turned in a good
performance with the clock read
ing 3:20.9.
Harvard, Yale and the Univer
sity of Chicago have the largest
endowment funds of any of the
educational institutions in the
United States. Harvard's fund
totals $131,099,000.

Philadelphia Lithographer
Glorifies Fighters, Circus

feet of the whole rather than a
photographically exact represen
tation of the scene. This does not
mean that he romanticizes. Re
cently a prominent weekly offered
him a substantial sum for the use
of his fight lithographs if he
would "fix" the faces of the fight
ers in order not to horrify the
magazine's women readers.
Baer's Face Lights Up.
An illustration of the way Mr.
Riggs work is related by Loren
Eisely, formerly of the university,
who is taking his Ph.D. at the
University of Pennsylvania, who
was instrumental in arranging the
exhibition in Lincoln. In a letter
to Professor Kirsch, Mr. Eisely
discusses the Baer Camera print,
which bothered Riggs for a long
time.
"He couldn't seem to get just
the right light on Baer's face,"
Mr. Eisely reported. "Then one
day he picked up a newspaper and
chanced to see a photograph of
Herbert Hoover at some distin
guished function. Something about
the light across the president's
face seemed just right. Something
clicked in Rigg's mind." The
lithograph was finished thanks
to Herbert Hoover.
Photographs Circus Detail.
Like the boxing prints, Mr.
Rigg's circus pictures are the re
sult of constant and long contin
ued observation. When the circus
is in town, Riggs attends every
night, accompanied by a photogra
pher friend who photographs
knots in ropes and other details
which must be exact.
Mr. Riggs has traveled widely
in North Africa and the Far East.
He has a collection of African
sculptures in wood and Plains In
dian material, including such oddi
ties as an Apache necklace orna
mented with dried human fingers,
and a war fetish decorated with
human jawbones.
Collects Lizards, Python.
Another collection resulting
from his travels is the assortment
of live snakes and lizards which
inhabit a specially heated porch of
his apartment. Mr. Riggs' favor
ite of these is an eight foot python,
for whose special benefit the lith
ographer recently moved to more
commodious rooms. The python
Mr. Riggs refers to affectionately
as "the meanest snake I ever had,"
and he comments regretfully that
if it continues to grow at its pres
ent rate he will have to get rid
of it eventually, there being a limit
to the number, of cubic feet of
snake that can be safely enter
tained in the confines of an apart
ment. To those who think the
limit has been reached already,
Mr. Riggs replies "He's good for
a few more feet."
The Riggs lithographs will be
shown by the Department of Fine
Arts in Gallery A of Morrill hall
until March 29, when they are
scheduled for a showing elsewhere.

Full Squad Sees East-West
Pictures; Work Out
Under Stadium.
A slush covered field forced
the Nebraska "spring" football
squad to the shelter of the stad
ium yesterday afternoon. The
scrimmage, scheduled for the
afternoon's workout, was neces
sarily postpon
ed until more
favorable
weather conditions.

The coaching staff made ex
ample of the film, showing the
"rights and wrongs" of the
game.
A brief chalk talk preceded
signal drill and dummy scrim
mage. Little by little Jones is
working Into his squad more
complex plays, but he intends to
withhold all grid trickery until
fall rolls around.
Used Same Lineups.
Generally speaking the same
lineups were employed in yester
day's drills as have been used
consistently thus far. Dohrmann
and Richardson, ends; Mills and
Doyle, tackles; Mehring and Eng
lish, guards; Ramey, center, com
posed the Red shirted line. The
backfield included Howell, An
drews, Dodd, and Rohrig.
The opposing lineup played
Grimm and Smith, ends;
Schwartzkopf and Hutcherson,
tackles; Pfeiff and Peters,
guards; Burruss, center; and
Phelps, Ball, Mather and Andre
son, backs.
Backfield Developing.
Most noteworthy of Husker
football thus far is the rapid
stride made in backfield develop
ment. This year's ball carrying
quartet, tentatively chosen, lacks
the height and weight of last sea
son's Francis and Cardwcll, but
they have speed and drive that
is equivalent. John Howell, vet
eran quarterback, who has al
ways played a blocking half, has
suddenly blossomed into a ball
carrier of note. In the last scrim
mage of the spring drills Howell
displayed a knack of plunging
and broken field running that
brought the coaching staff to a
sudden reality of their posses
sion. He accounted for all three
of the scrimmage's touchdowns.
L
Schulte Plans Special Races
This Week to Size Up
Husker Squad.
Special tryouts to determine who
is to represent Nebraska in track
at the Texas Relays, staged at
Austin, April 3, will hold the spot
light this week as far as the
Husker runners are concerned.
According to Coach Henry F.
Schulte, about seven runners se
lected by tryouts will take the
jaunt to the Longhorn classic.
For this coming Wednesday,
Mentor Schulte has decided to
hold a special race in the 410 and
880 yard runs. Bob Allen, John
Brownlec, Alfred Kuper and Paul
Owen, all sophomores, have been
picked by the head coach to take
part in these two special events.
From this quartet one or two win
ners will wear Scarlet and Cream
colors in those races at the Texas
contest.

Dr. Sturdevant, of the Univer
sity of Nebraska school of den
tistry, will direct the choir of the
First Baptist church this evening
at 7:45 in singing "The Seven
Last Words." This choir of 44
voices is one of the few in the
city to sing such a difficult selec
tion. Franklin LeBar is the bari
tone soloist, Rose Dunder and
Ruth Randall the soprano solo
ists, Milan Starks the tenor solo
ist, and Cliff Sturdevant and
James Lawson the tenor duet.

Intramural volleyball competi
tion will reach its climax Monday
evening at the coliseum when the
semi-finals and final games will
be played. Sigma Phi Epsilon,
league II victor, will meet Sigma
Nu, league I champ; and Phi
Kappa Psi, league IV titlists, will
struggle with Sigma Alpha Ep

Immediately following the two
semi-final games, the two winners

Results of volleyball competition
will vitally affect the intramural
standings. All four semi-finalists
are now listed among the first six
leaders, with very few points sepa
rating them. At the present,
Acacia is at the top of the heap,
but the volleyball results will prob
ably produce a new leader.
As a whole, the intramural
sports program is running cn
schedule. The spring sports, in
cluding golf, tennis, horseshoes,
baseball and track, will start as
scon as school resumes after
spring vacation.

Nightly Coach Biffer Jones
grid squad shows big improvement
in the way of a perfected glaze as
the big man with the whistle ap
plies the sand paper. He has had
ample support
and a good
turnout. The
perfection o f
squad, we learn
in that psych
class, comes
only from per

individual play
ers. Some of the
griddcrs who
have developed
over night like

Herm Rohrig, and Thurston

have shown the most rapid im
provement of any of those on the
roster.
Mills, in particular, gives an in
teresting study for those in the
market for grid tales. Fred Shirey
all conference tackle, has been con
fined to the inactive side of the
chalk stripes
this spring due
to some heckl
ing throat
trouble. It is in
his place that
Mills has been
playing. Shirey
will be back
next fall for
action and Mills
knows this. For
that one reason

the height where he will be hard
to pry from that tackle post by
Shirey or anyone else.
The same is true for Ramey, re
placing Brock, and John Richard
son, replacing Amen.
Neither arc Seeman and Calli
han doing themselves any good by
their absence from fullback and
guard spots, respectively.
Finally recognizing the fact that
he, "David," had forgotten his
sling shot and could not whip
"Goliath" Jock Sutherland, Don
Harrison resigned from his athletic
directorship at Pittsburgh. The
resignation came as the result of
a three month squabble between
the P. B. K. director and the fa
mous football coach over the
problem of subsidization.
For approximately a week at
the beginning of the quarrel over
legal tender, the two Pittsburgh
figures battled in the open. Later
they decided they couldn't stand
the smell of publicity anil so re
tired to private chamber to wage
on and on. This they have done
until the announcement of Har
rison's resignation yesterday. It is
difficult to say whether the
punches were low or high, but no
matter the nature of the blows,
Harrison took the count.
As a swan song he made a gal
lant plea to the board that they
take the athletic department and
"keep it clean" alter his departure.
Harrison will complete the school
year In his present capacity.
