: i On the Art of Hurdle-Setting. By Brucs Campbell. You can rest aisured, track Fan and Fannies, that the trackfest tomorrow will be run off slicker than a campus poli tician. The hurdle-setting squad went through their final paces today under the supervision of Harold Petz and they appear to be In the pink of condition for tomorrow's strenuous hurdle-setting activity. And I mean activ ity. Starting at 1:15, there will be meet between Nebraska and Oklahoma and promptly follow ing that will come the prelimi naries of the state high school track meet. The hurdle-setter In the past has been as little known for hla action as a football guard. But, he is an essential part of any self-respecting track meet. A hard-working group of boys do their setting up exercises and do them with more care than the hasty hurdlers. And who gets the praise? Not the hurdle-setters, although they -deserve it. Ten will get you one that you never thought much about the matter of hurdle-setting, or if you did you probably thought the set ters were boys pressed into serv ice on the spur of the moment. Nothing could be "wronger." It is a matter of weighty consideration to pick a good hurdle-setter. Some are born with the gift and other acquire It by hard work and a pull with the coach. Then, too, there is the question of eligibility. Coach Schulte conferred with .his aide-de-camps Thursday aft ernoon for fully half an hour be fore he finally picked a satis factory group. Numerous nomi nations were made and some ac cepted. "Put Smith on," urged one aide-de-camp. "He's not eligible," said Schulte. "He hasn't been out for track enough. I want to give this opportunity to the deserving boys." "Say, coach," proffered another lieutenant (Schulte's not the R. O. T. C's. ) "I know just the man to put in charge of the hurdle-setters. Thompson is his name. Jardin Thompson. I watched his technique yesterday In the interfraternity track meet and he's a good man. He's got a good eye and is a good judge of distance." Schulte took his name and so Thompson will be hurdle tycoon today and tomorrow. The selection over with, the lucky men began a dress rehearsal. Hurdle-setting is a complicated art. To aid in the action metal marking bands are placed at the correct places on the cement curb inside the track. Now Nebraska has one of the finest and fastest tracks in the country but it is rather tricky for hurdle-setters. A couple of metal markers have been torn off and the hurdle-setter who correctly sets those particular hurdles must be a man who has gone over the course and is iamiliar with it. Hurdle Director Petz gave his men special instruc tion on the setting of the high school hurdles, which are set on a 200 yard course instead of a 220 yard course. The curve on the low hurdle race, too, is a tricky bit of outlay and requires an old master. A neophyte would bungle the job. Then there is the matter of placing the hurdle to the well being of the hurdler. The low hurdles are placed with the bar facing the hurdlers and the high hurdlers run against a "locked" hurdle. If you didn't know already, the same hurdles are used for both events and care must be taken In setting up the high hurdles that the bar is flopped up so that if a hurdler did hit the top, he would not cause the lower part to swing up and injure him. If he runs against a locked hurdle, he merely knocks the whole hurdle down with a lesser chance of injury. Having gone over the ground thoroly, Petz dismissed his charges with a final word to be present at 1 o'cloi for work. A hurdle setter who has the interests of his university at heart and is proud of its fine efficient hurdle-setting record will get a good night's sleep and eat a light lunch before getting out on the track, as it takes a steady hand to get a uniform setting. The boys. as a whole, tho, looked pretty good and a perfect hurdles-etting day is expected by yours truly. If they cross me up, boy. will my face be red. However, I imagine the sun will have a little to say about that. too. DR. BROOM TALKS ON ORIGIN OF MAN IN TEMPLE TODAY (Continued from Page 1.1 to the origin of many than any form hitherto found.

As a preliminary to the annual state high school track tourna ment which commences today and ends tomorrow, the Nebraska- Oklahoma battle will be staged at 1:15 this afternoon on the Memorial stadium cinderway. This will be the last dual for both squads before they participate in the conference, championships here May 21 and 22.

Swarthy Eddie Toribio Is the hub of the visitors' attack. He is a sprinter of national reputation as he placed second at both the Drake and Kansas relays in the 100 yard dash, trailing Bobby Grieve of Illinois at these two tournaments. He will be matched against the Husker trio of Marvin Plock, Lcs Pankonln and Dick Fischer In the 100 yard jaunt. Score 72 Points.

"Many people seem to have dif ficulty in accepting the view that man came from an ape ancestor," Dr. Broom observed. "Many fear that such a belief will result in the destruction of religion and collapse of civilization." It is the famous discoverer's own opinion that all evolution has been euided by some high spiritual pow er and that the end of evolution has been the production of man. As far as he is concerned the human being is not merely a large brained ape who walks on his hind legs, but is. a being enaowea with a spiritual personality and that the production of such per sonalities has been the aim of all evolution. Illustrated Lecture. "If this view is correct." he says, "it seems to follow that the per sonality will not perish with bodily death but will be preserved for some purpose in another sphere."

Somer set Maugham's new novel, is an excellent one If theatre conjures up In your mind the image of all that is vulgar, tawdy, and shoddy. Maugham, who made a work of art out of the portrayal of the cheap Milly in "Of Human Bond age," resorts to stock company theatrics in writing this book on the Elinor Glynn pattern. His language is loose and melodra matic in his effort to make it racy. "Theatre" is the story of Julia, an actress without beauty and without morals, but with glam our, who has a passion for a very beautiful, a very vain, but a very moral young man, a con temporary plot convention which is becoming just a bit boring. Mr. Maugham's style, the im mortal Julia, and her beautiful young man are admirable char acterized in: "Marriage? What did she care about marriage? Her heart melted within her when she looked Into his deep, friendly eyes, and she shivered with delightful anguish when she considered his shining, russet hair. There was nothing that he could have asked her that she would not gladly have given him. The thought never entered his lovely head." Julia succeeds in getting the beautiful young man, but only by benefit of marriage, a point he Insists upon by seriously quoting Mr. Lovelace's immortal: "I could not love thee, dear, so much, Loved I not honour more." The story moved on through twenty more years of their life In which Julia forgets her husband, but in which she revives her pas sion for sundry lovers, old and young. Another convention of Mr. Maugham's Is Julia's piquant little conversations with herself, chiefly devoted to wondering If she Ik preserving her sex appeal. Sex appeal seems to be a favorite word of Mr. Maugham. As far as we know it came In and it went out with Elinor Glynn buck in 128. but Mr. Maugham still elings to It. I( would appear that "Theatre" is a cheap story told about cheap people, in cheap jargon, for cheap people to read. HLSIiVESS STAFF Bob Shellenberg Bob Wadhame. Web Mill.

Both West and And dead heats this season, are out to 4:23.8 established by Glenn Fun Sooner milers this afternoon, how today. J 4KV x ywth Firm fn his interests and sincere in his beliefs is Senator Edwin Schultz of Elgin. A very prominent man in the past four and a half months of Nebraska unicameral meeting, the senator has rep. resented what he feels to be the best inter ests of his dis trict and hus wasted no words in pub licly voicing his sincere opin ions. One who f met and talked to the district 27 representa tive can justly use the word 'squareshooter. "The Ulllcam-Senator K4n S.hulli. eral has many Krom Lincoln Journal, good features and also many questionable features," Senator Schultz maintains. "In some ways the new one house system exceeds the bi-cameral system, and in others it doesn't. For one thing, we must establish some system, If possible, so that necessary bills, particularly those involving mat ters of the state, get the proper consideration first." Senator Schultx does not alto gel her question the success of the unicameral system, but he does believe that bills should receive some check beforr they are re ferred to the governor fur final consideration. H! believes that there should be a time limitation on the number of days that lillls can be introduced. "Undoubtedly there have been bills passed in this session be cause of selfish motives. These same bills would probably not have passed under the two house system. In any branch of government or In any variety of politics the human element al ways enters In. Every Individual holding any important office has outside pressure continually ex erted against him. For that rea son a number of bills have passed the unicameral this year by means of 'backslapping,' that is, the 'you vote for my bill and I'll vote for your' theory," the senator points out. As a member of the banking and insurance committee and chairman of the committee on edu cation, the Elfin representative has been a busy senator.

West oach Schulte has shoved him up rews, who have finished In several better the varsity mile record of k three years ago. Beating the ever, is uppermost in their minds every measure that has been before the history making session. Sen ator Schultz was also a member of the two house body in both the regular sessions of 1935. The district 27 senator voted against bill 334. which provided for a state building fund that would given the university several new buildings. He did so in the best interests of the district he was representing. He believes that education must not be hampered, but points out that the entire state must have a good crop before he could conscientously have voted for the measure. The senator ex plained the vote against the pro vision in the appropriation bill which would have put the teach ers in the school of music on a salary basis as being one that the majority of senators considered as a 'kickback.' " Senator Schultz definitely opposes the short ballot bill. 'If the people of the state adopt the short ballot with the unicameral legislature already in existence, they will see the time when the governor virtually dominates the state," the sena tor emphasized. "If the legisla ture had spent more time for real legislation and less time for reform, the entire state would be in a better condition." Lobbiests on the unicameral floor provide no trouble to the El gin senator. He listens to what the lobblest hus to say and then votes acording to his own beliefs. When Questioned if the salary of the senators provided a loophole for the lobbiests, the senator replied by saying thut no man who cannot affort it should take part in poli tics. The budget bill, to Senator Schultz, was the most important legislation of the entire session. Senator Schultz is a farmer in j his district which comprises Boone and Antelope counties. He has been director of the Antelope county fair board and also director of the Elgin community club. He , is 38, a republican, and married. His wife was formerly county su perintendent of schools in Boone county. Mr. Schultz' recreational hobby is hunting and fishing.

By Joe Zslley. From every sector of the state, prep track athletes will gather at Memorial stadium today and to morrow for the annual state high school track and field tournament. Following tho Nebraska-Oklahoma dual at 1:15 this afternoon, the prelims to the high school meet will be staged with the finals com ing off tomorrow afternoon at two o'clock. More than 150 teams have en tered this blue ribbon track classic. The cinderway was sprinkled and dressed yesterday so as to be in tip-top shape for the two-day bat tle. Given inclement weather, sev eral new track marks should be registered in the four classes. Some 685 athletes will be attired in track clothes ready to espouse the cause of their respective insti tutions. Last year's champions are all returning for another fling at the tourney. North Platte in class A, Mitchell in class B. Edgar in class C and Lebanon in class D are rulers from last season's hotly fought tournament who will be seen in action this weekend. Mitchell In B Class. Dopsters say that Mitchell is the only ruler certain to repeat this year as it has swept through its competition without being hind ered. Coach Gerald Dennis' run ners have won their division for the last two years and should they turn the trick in '37 they will have the uncontested honor of being the first prepsters to win their class three consecutive seasons. Impe rial, Ord, O'Neill, Ulysses and Gothenburg have plotted means of stopping the Mitchell lads from seizing the group B diadem. Coach Ivan Wilson's North Platte squad won its division last year by the narrow margin of two points, beating out Lincoln high. Lincoln will be back with 21 entrants, the largest number en tered by any team in the contest. Headed by Dick Beal and Dave Wall, Omaha Tech must be taken into consideration as it has per formed brilliantly in duals this year. 25 Points for Win 7 Sports seers predict that 25 points will be sufficient to capture class A laurels. It will be a stern assignment for any one squad to amass this amount with such teams as Hastings. Lincoln, North Platte, Omaha Tech, Grand Island and Beatrice in the same group.

Kdsel Wibbels of Walbach, who holds the interscholastlc dis cus mark at 154 feet 9 Inches, will undoubtedly snatch several count ers for his high school, Lebanon, group D king, Is hop ing to retain its crown mainly through the efforts of Charles Haag and Max Ingram to come through with points galore. Law rence Gassman and Glenn Schul ckebier have signified their in tentions of performing in a note worthy manner for Goehner. Waco, Comstock, Chapman, Bushnell, Duncan and Bellevue will have to be disposed of if Lebanon expects to repeat this year. Individual Stars. Fans at the state track classic will turn their eyes to several out standing Individual performers. Perhaps the most publicized ath lete of the entire tournament is Edsel Wibbels of Wolbach. Edsel holds the interscholastic discus mark and is also skullful at peg ging the javelin, as he has had several heaves with the spear past the 180 foot mark. Placing second to Wibbels last year, Ray Frochaska of Ulysses will be back to add color and com petitive spirit to the tourney. George "Bus" Knight of Jackson and Lawrence Grote of Omaha Benson will be here to throw the javelin. In the 100 yard clash, Dick Beal of Omaha Tech and Lloyd Wright of Beatrice should put on a torrid battle for first place honors. Champion last year in the 220 yard dash, Littler will be back in harness and will run in this event plus the century race. Bob Beltz. Lincoln, Ray Holms, Hastings, and Herry Tyler, Omaha Tech. are the main attractions in the 440 yard amble. In the 880 yard chase it will be a tossup as the following thunder down the runway: Red Floyd, Beatrice; Hugh Jones. Over ton and Francis McConncll, Cen tral City. Vault Mark Endangered. Pole vaulting records are in dan ger of being shattered as Harold Hunt of North Platte and Bill Mc Gaffin of York catapult thru the ether. At the Southwest conference meet last week, Hunt skimmed the bar at 12 feet 6 1-2 inches which is better than the record of 12 feet 2 1-2 Inches made by Carl Nichols in '31. Dave Wall of Oma ha Tech has high jumped 6 feet 1 1-2 inches. The mile battle between Gilbert Dodds of Falls City and Delmar Moore, Bartley star, should see a new mark written into the tourna ment annals. Jim Mather, Arapa hoe star on Coach Henry F. Schulte's Cornhusker tri-color track group, holds the broad jump mark of 22 feet 10 3-4 inches es tablished last season. The best mark this season In the brond jump has been a 22 tnot 2 Inch leap by Littler of Mitchell. Summer 195 CUiN SHADE BKIMS, OPEN CKOWNS, SUMMER TAM O'SIIANTEKS.

However, the studio is always open for tryouts. Stud ents are encouraged to arrange for an audition. The choral vespers which have been held at the Cornhusker at 5 o'clock every Sunday since tho first of February have been at tended regularly by many stud ents. They will continue next tall starting In November to be held at the same hour and place.
