IN FOUR SPORTS HUSKERS BUSY DURING VACATION Husker athletic teams will be busy over the spring- recess. To tart the ball rolling, nine track men will journey to Austin, Tex., for the annual running of the Tex ai relays. Tuesday these men will join the remainder of the squad at Nsrman to open the dual meet season with Oklahoma. The baseball team opens its sea ion In Waco, Tex., with a two Came series with Baylor April 4 and 5, Oklahoma April 7 and 8, and Oklahoma A. & M. at Still water, April 8. Boxing On the Rise. Harry Thomas will meet the Brown Bomber in a Chicago ring AH Fool's day. Gate receipts are very promising the promoters an nounce and the fight is likely to b a huge success. Joe Louis has been given credit for putting the light game back on its leet. adoui thre vears aco a champion meet- lntr an unknown would hardly have drawn enough people to pay the rent on the nark. The question nftMi asked whv neoplc will flock to see a fight whose out come is obvious. We ask ourselves that same question last Oct. 2. Why would all of the people gath ered In Lincoln come so far to see the Golden Gophers bowl over an other opponent? That afternoon we got the answer to the question. A winner in bound to fall some time. Human beings have not reached the state of infalihility yet and there is something about see ing a sure winner defeated that thrills the erowa. Boxing fans, remembering Joe's fight with Schmeling, think that perhaps some of the Bombers luckless opponents may filter thru his guard on one occasion and lay the Detroitcr low. If surh a thing should happen they all want to be there. That is the best explanation for the large crowds even tho the champion's opponents are not given a ghost of a chance. Locals Suffer. While the national sport has been on the upgrade, the leather Uno-ino- indnstrv in local circles have suffered a relapse. University boxen one chance to show their wares here in school was suooeniy cut off last week when the all .ehool houts were cancelled. Some people have often wondered why it is that boxing is sucn a pi.ui. sport nationally but is not a part j ,f the intercollegiate acuvnie here in this section of the coun try. Our anrwer to that is that th athletic department discourages the sport bv not awarding letters. Interest in gvmnastirs whs at a low ehh a few' years ago with no men out for the sport. The athleitc department decided to award let ters and the result Is that the school has a team which has ac quitted itself on many occasions. This did not happen overnight, however, and should letters be awarded for boxing improvement would not be apparent Immediate ly. Baseball Need! Pep Too. The baseball team has wonder ful material this year and will likely muke a much better show ing than last year.
