STADIUM THIS WEEK
The university will be host to
the annual high school track and
field meet this week end and local
fans will have an opportunity of
seeing- the prepsters in action. Cy
Yordy's Lincoln high track squad
is the one to beat in the meet.
The Red and Black squad has
shown up strorig in all tf the sea
son's Invitational meets. Eleven
of the 14 existing- records are re
ported to be In danger.
White the prepstcr are stag
ing their annual meet in Memorial
ttidium, the Husker track squad
will remain Idle in order to help
with the meet and to rest up for
the Big Six championships which
will be in the stadium May 21.
Protest Game.
A protest has been filed with
the Big- Six officials by Kansas
State college stating that a Missouri-Wildcat
baseball game was
illegally won by the Tigers, te
state charges that a Missouri
pinch hitter failed to report to the
umpire and should have been de
clared out. As it was the batter
walked and accounted for the win
ning score. Conference officials
will rule on the contention when
they meet May 20 and should they
uphold K-State's claim the game
will be thrown out of the official
(standings and declared no contest.
Lincoln's new state league base
ball team started off the season
with a b"nj by beating the Wood
msn team 18-2 at Landf field Sun
day. Thj Gallopers, Oat's what
Tug Griffin calls his team, chalked
up 15 runs in the first frame to
ihatter all local records on the
subject. None of the runt were
earned, however, as Woodmen er
rors accounted for all of the tal
lies. Jack Eitel, the pilot of the
opposing team, was charged with
eight mistakes. Lincoln only gath
ered three runs in the remaining
frames as the Woodmen team
tightened behind a pitcher loaned
by Griffin.
Tough Grind.
The longest season at UCLA for
a wrestling team was finished last
month. The bone benders were
about their wars for a total of
eight months running which is no
short time to be tying knots in
other person's appendages. Inci
dcntly the California school seems
to be wanting to Include horse rac
ing on the sports program. Under
a picture of a race finish there is
the legend that Stagehand had
been scratched at the Kentucky
derby and then there was this sig
nificant phrase: "If horse racing
were on the UCLA curriculum, it
would undoubtedly be listed as a
minor sport." This may mean that
some of the larger sports have not
as yet been classed as major ac
tivities and if horse racing should
be included it too would be a minor
sport.
Ivan Borman has become a sen
sational sophomore hurler, accord
inn ta the Iowa State Student's ac
count of the baseball game last
week which the Musxers won o-a.
Borman is a good pitcher and has
turned in some good performances
during the last two weeks. He is
far from sensational, as yet.
With a little training, Reuben
Denning has the best chance of
any hurler on the Husker staff of
earning the appellation of "sensa
tional." Kappa Phi Mothers Fried

Kappa Thi, Methodist sorority,

About 24 mothers attended and

Bernetha Hinthom and Dorothy

Schultemcn Upset Dope
In Triangular Meet
At Lawrence.
The Huskers upset the dope
bucket Again last Saturday by
winning their triangular track
meet over Kansas State and the
University of Kansas. Nebraska
barely edged out the Wildcats,
scoring GK points to 61 '4 for K
State and 35 for the Jayhawks.
Kansas State had been doped to
drop the Huskers in this meet.
The Husker mentor, Coach Schulte,
predicted Nebraska to finish in
second place with 61 points, 1 1
less than he allotted to Coach
Ward Haylett's Kansas State
Wildcats. Kansas U he placed in
third, with 46 points.
Two factors combined to cause
this wide difference between
Schulte's figures and the actual
results. For one thing, his Husk
ers showed more power in some
events than he had credited them
with. Kansas U's score was kept
low by the absence of Foy, who
usually figures in among the top
two or three In the dashes. Had
he been present, he would prob
ably have added from 4 to 6 points
to his team's total.
Big Six Meet Next.
The Big Six meet is the only
thing left for the Huskers to look
forward to in the line of confer
ence competition this year. This
meet will be held in Memorial sta
dium next Kriday and Saturday.
After that, Schulte will start drill
ing a picked sound for the national
meet, to be held In Minneapolis in
June.
Gnanecs for a Husker victory In
the conference championships are
much brighter now than they were
before the triangular meet Satur
day. The main trouble far the
Huskers will come from Kansas
Staie, Missouri and Oklahoma.
Coach Schulte will drive his
charges as hard as possible be
tween now and the tfme for the
meet. Drills were necessarily cut
to a minimum last night because
of the cold wind, but a large part
of the team turned out.
Weight Men Out.
All the leading Nebraska weight
men, Bob Mills, Charley Brock and
Bill Pfeiff, were out. Mills and
Brock placed one-two in the dis
cus Saturday, and Mills took sec
ond in the shot behind Kansas
State's sophomore, Elmer Hack
ney. These men are all in fine
shape and all got off some excel
lent practice heaves last night.
Ed Wibbels, frosh weight man.
got off the best discus throw of
the day. His best effort was good
for 148 feet, which, however, is
7 feet short of his best throw this
year.
John Brownlee, Husker distance
man. started the two mile run
Saturday but was forced to drop
out because of a badly infected
foot Brownlee hurt his foot sev
eral (lays before the Drake relays,
but it gave him no trouble then.
It was apparently in fine shape
until it started bothering again
Saturday. Brownlee has been or
dered to stay off his foot as much
as possible for the next few days.
With proper care, it is expected
that his foot will be In shape again
shortly.
Schulte Plans Special Mile.
Coach Schulte has planned a
special feature mile race for the
state high school track meet. He
plans to run several of his frosh
distance men against Carl Saltz
giver of South Sioux City. Saltz
giver is a high school mile star,
and his early season performances
had led many to think that he
would set a new record in his
event in the state meet. But he
has been ruled ineligible because

Betsey Was Botanist.
Charles E. Bessey, (L. L. D.,
was again acting chancellor the
eighth In the line. For some rea
son Dr. Bessey did not care for
the appointment as permanent
chancellor, apparently because he
was a scientist and botanist rather
than an administrator. Things
about the university went smooth
ly under his charge, but I fancy
that he did not care particularly
for administration for a daily liet.
President McKinley was in the
White House during this service of
acting Chancellor Bessey and the
second battle between McKinley
and Bryan was just beginning
when his successor took office. His
services began Sept. 1, 1S99 and
ended April 10, 1900.

university's ninth chancellor. This
educator was born at Hinsdale,

James Abram Garfield succumbed

Nebraska's improving baseball
team invades Iowa this weekend
for two games at Iowa State on
Thursday and Friday, and a game
against Luther at Decorah on Sat
urday. The Husker3 will be gunning for
third place in the conference stand
ings which the Cyclones hold now
with three wins and two losses,
while the Huskers are in fourth
place with three victories and four
defeats. A two-game sweep by Ne
braska would send the Cyclones
down to fourth place, while a
split series or two victories by
Iowa State would keep the two
teams in their present position.
The conference titlist will prob
ably be determined soon as Okla
homa and Missouri meet in two
games at Columbia. Missouri, with
its two pitching aces. Mason and
Miles, Is a slight favorite to down
the Sooners.
Missouri's 4-3 victory over Kan
sas State however, has been pro
tested by the Wildcats because a
Missouri pinch hitter, who walked
and eventually scored the winning
run, failed to report to the ref
erees. Big Six officials will take
action on the protest when they
meet May 20 and 21, and if the
protest ts sustained, the game will
be called "no contest" and thrown
out f the standings. Oklahoma,
meanwhile was winning two games
from their intrastate rivals, Okla
homa A & M, taking the first by
a one run margin and the second,
11-7.
The Cyclones are in a vengeful
mood following their surprising
setback at the Huskers' hands Fri
day, their only ot loss in ten
games being to Missouri's power
ful Tigers. Luther is no setup,
holding a victory over Iowa U. who
has bca-n winning its share of Big
Ten games.

of chemistry at the Agricultural
r.xpenment station of the Uni

to the University of Nebraska as
professor of analytical and or
ganic chemistry, and on Jan. 1,
1909, became chancellor, a position
held until Sept. 1, 1929, when he
was made chancellor emeretus and
his successor took active charge.
He has to his credit a great num
ber of bulletins covering experi

the encyclopedias seem to omit hin
service as a chemist during the
World war, at Washington, where
his profound knowledge of how to
aid in the production of life-giving
things thru chemistry was di
verted toward the production of
death-dealing devices. I fancy this
was not exaclly to his liking, but
he was both a master chemist and
a patriot and he did his duty!
