'OTHER FIVE' H AVE A
CHANCE
Lawrence Grauerholz, sports
editor of the Kansas State Col
legian, is anxious about the pro
gression of football in Lincoln. In
his column "On the Sports Hook,"
he seems to be optimistic over
the chance of the other five
against the Scarlet next season.
"Every year the other five teams
point for Nebraska, but it just
doesn't seem to do much good,"
the Kansan says. "But there
seems a ray of hope this time."
Grauerholz then goes on to point
out the weakness of the Nebraska
line which includes graduation,
inexpeiience and all that sort of
thing.
Despite all of the self made
checks we have voluntary put on
ourself, we get more enthusiastic
every day over the prospects of
the 1938 team. The line that was
supposed to be inexperienced is developing-into
a strong one averag
ing 204 pounds from end to end.
With a strong defensive line up
front and a good fast baokfield
combination, and we've more than
one, Nebraska is going to play
plenty of football next fall.
Johnny Howell, who piloted the
Huskers to fame la.st Oct. 2
against Minnesota, is again follow

A ruling by Dean T. J. Thomp
son that all participants must con
form to the same eligibility re
quirements as do men in varsity
sports resulted in the cancellation
of the all-university boxing show,
which had been planned for last
night. Many of the entrants were
freshmen, and thus ineligible to
take part.
i Harold Petz, director of intra -murals
and in charge of the show,
states that this is the first time
that competitors in intramural
sports have ever been made sub
ject to ordinary varsity require
ments for eligibility. Dean Thomp
son rave as his reasons for having
the show concelled, the fact that
it had been advertised and that
admission was being charged, and
that therefore all participants
must have the same standing as
do any men taking part in varsity
athletics.
Practically all of the men who
entered the show have a satisfac
tory average for the hours which
they have carried, but many of
them, being freshmen, do not have
sufficient hours To be eliginie ior
varsitv competition a man must
have at least sophomore standing
u-ith is or more hours carried sat
isfactorily the semester 'before
competition, and 12 hours the se
mester before that.

No, the Irish haven't passed
out of baseball yet. In fact, ac
cording to Bill Brandt's Green
Book, there are more players of
Irish derivation in the National
league than of any other ancestry
68 to be exact. Twenty-seven of
them claim to be 100 percent I
Irish, while the others run from
(of course 1 Dizzy Dean, German-'
Irish, to Indian-Irish Tom t-auoi.
On the Eringers' heels come Get -man

Party Last Night. j
AMES. March 23.- Iowa State
colli ge celebrated its SOth birth
day last flight, with a party, pro
pram and ilmner dance, in which
students, family and alumni joined
at the Mciv.oiial Union.
An address by Dr. Charles E.
Frily. prcsi.it nt of the college, and
a talk bv D-m Stoufer, president
of the Ge-ieial Iowa State College
Alumni association, featured the
program. Music by the college
band and campanile selections by
Ira Shroedcr were also broadcast
over an NBC chain, in celebration

is capable of setting a new record.
The best bet that he knows at
Nebraska, he said, is Edsel Wib
bels, Husker freshman who got a
heave of 155 feet, which is just
11 inches short of the Big Six rec
ord, Monday night.
Two Handed Record 295 Feet.
The world two handed discus
record is 295 feet 8'5 inches, set
bv E. Nicklander of Finland in
j'ulv of 1913. Contrary to popular
belief, in this event both hands are
not used at the same time. The
platter is first thrown with the
right hand and then with the left
hand, and the two heaves are
added together. This-event is sel
dom used, and is not a part of
the Olympic program. It is most
frequently used as an exhibition
; event.
Nebraska has never had any
really good discus men. according
to Schulte. The reason for this he
savs is that not enough time has
been devoted to it. To achieve ex
cellence in the discus requires an
hour's work each day. Sam Fran
; cis was named as the best of a
group of mediocre Nebraska uiscus
men by Schulte. At his best. Fran
cis never got much over 155 feet.
