To the Sport Editor:
"And the glories of the past
returned again."
Oftentimes you have meditated
upon the possible combinations of
ex-Cornhuskcr greats in the field
of nthletics. Many times you have
spoken of invincible, although
mythical teams, composed of stars
of other times. A football team
with Lyman, Weir, Ely, Debus,
Kostcr and others in the line, with
a back field of Card well, Presnoll,
Blue" Howell, and "Jug"' Brown;
tmakpthfill outfit of Tipton,
TIshcr. Wltte. Walnulst and Fisher;
a truck combination including
Francis, Locke, Ayres, Rhodes,
Wlrsig; these outfits would be
unbeatable, but they were merely
nivthiml combinations.
But perhaps soon now we may
see those teams in action, a reality
mull of dreams. The rieht step
in that direction (disregarding
such minor factors as eligibility
rules urn! rlirht of participation )
has been made by an ex-cheerleader,
who deigns to again parade
in front of delighted fans the tac
tics that made him a Yell King
two years aro.
What does it matter that the
man has no right to participation,
that his activities detract from the
attempts of those chosen for the
task, that eligibility rulings are
not enforced in his case. He is
one of the "greats" of the past,
who wishes to supplement his
three, years of participation in ac
tivities with possibly a decade
more.
If only others could feel his
guiding spirit, could show as little
regard for propriety with respect
to participation in student activi
ties, shining stars of college life
of other years might again return
to bless the student populace with
their presence. Perhaps, this man
should be immortalized as one
who showed Nebraska how to ob
tain unbeatable athletic comblna
t i o n s, unchanging publications
staffs, and maybe an unchanging
student populace.
With best wishes, until the day
when Bill McCleery again heads
the Nebraskan, George Farley cap
tains football. Sam Waugh coaches
basketball, and the like. D. T.

The Huskers held their own with
the Tigers during the first half.
Altho they fired time after time
at the hoop, they failed to con

functioned effectively on defense,
hurrying the Scarlet's shots but
were unable to penetrate Nebras

out in front by a one point margin
as the half ended, 15-14.
The Tigers turned on the b'.at

By John Stuart.
Major "Biff" Jones is back from
touring the state. Unable to fill
every request, the "Biffcr'' at
tended as many football banquets
during these winter months in as
many towns as he was able.
Starting after the football sea
son closed last November, Major
Jones has attended banquets in
over 30 towns while the rest of
the sports staff visited as many
other towns as they were able.
Often he attended banquets as
high as five nights a week.
Visits West Coast.
Since the "Biffcr" was out on
the west coast from Pec. 19 to
Jan. 10, coaching the West team
in preparation for the East-West
annual charity game, this cut
down on the number of towns
which he was able to visit. When
he came up here from Oklahoma
last spring, he made a tour of
some of the towns over the state,
and he did not revisit those towns
on this last trip but went to those
towns where he hadn t been before.
Taking motion pictures along,
Biff ran the reels of those games
requested by banqueteers In the
various towns. Shots of the Min
nesota. Indiana, and Pittsburgh
games were very popular as well
as a reel showing the highlights
of every game.
Commenting on the high Inter
est which those out in the state
took in football, Jones said that
Nebraska had only one state uni
versity as compared to many
states' two, and thus this Institu
tion had the advantage of the un
divided attention of the entire
state.
Outstate Material a Puzzle.
Although he talked to many
high school senior football men,
Jones could say nothing as to
whether the material looked prom-
