I'M THE
IDENTIFICATION
CARD,
that Can't Identify
I am the little Identification
card that only sees the light of
day whenever my student owner
has to pay. My 2 by 4 size makes
me plenty small, but this morn
ing I stand ahead of them all. But
yesterday was my big day, they
poked me, they punched me, it
paid, they say.
Yes, I am the little Identifi
cation card that you saw yes
terday. Maybe you saw me at
the faction center fraternity
house. Perhaps you spied me at
yesterday's election. Again, you
might have seen me as I passed
hands in front of yesterday's In
efficient polls. Maybe you think
you saw a whole lot, but com
pared to what I set my eyes on,
you don't stand a chance. Let me
tell you about myself.
CC
I was born several months ago
when my master paid his shillings
to this great institution of higher
learning. I always wanted to see
what that master looked like but
he would never put his picture
next to my bosom. Time went on
end I got out for a good stretcn
Ing occasionally.
My master and I went to the li
brary once this year and I got
pulled out by my ears. I stood on
the counter for a minute or so.
They were saying something but
I couldn't understand them. You
see, my master is an activity man
and he was talking about Plato
and student politics. I don't know
that anyone can understand them.
CC
Then on Monday night, as I
lay in hit back hip pocket, I
heard tht queerest noises above
my head. Again I thought: "Stu
dent Politics.'' When the fog had
cleared away I found that I was
right. Some guy that doesn't
give a damn about sticking hit
head into enemy-making po
litical machines was telling his
fraternity brothert that he
wanted me and all my brothers.
I got stacked In a group with my
brothers. Did we have a good
bull session. We stayed In this
guy's pocket more than half the
night. I got to peek out only
once. At that time they were
taking torches away from each
other and several pairs of fists
were flying nearby. When I
turned my head I heard a noite
that tounded like the field artil
lery was ualng shrapnel on the
Phi Delt house.
That was last night. My brothers
and I stayed awake all night long.
We hadn't seen each other for al
most four months. Brothers came
from every end of the campus for
our unplanned reunion. We talked
most of the night about being more
Important that's what most all
bodies talk about when they have
a meeting. We decided that: Next
year we want pictures of our own
ers glued on our backs with some
sort of a seal to show that we
haven't been separated from that
Picture. Next year we want to be
Important in helping students to
get good seats at the football sta
dium by having our picture also
on those tickets.
CC
Then, yesterday morning, the
fatal hour came. My owner came
for me early, as did a lot of my
brother's ownert. Next I flaw a
pretty, naive little girl who
wanted my number. I was the
first Uttle identification card to
be used and since I had no pic
ture this little girl decided that
none of my brothers would need
their pictures. That's the way It
went all day. Next they punched
a hole right on my five spot. My
brothert said that tome of them
didn't get punched until they
saw that little girl two times.
As I stayed at the polls all day,
I would say that more than 80
boys used my brother cards and
did not own them. I was astonish
ed to see a member of one political
faction pin a pledge button on a
high school senior and have him
vole. When members of the other
faction contested, this poor little
hlghschooler couldn't say a thing.
I was amused at another Instance
when contesters asked a wouldbe
owner to sign his name like the
name on the face was signed. He
couldn't do It. We were both em
barrassed. CC
When night fell last evening,
I had seen tht dirtiest, probably
the mott oorrupt abuses of stu
dent voting vr displayed by,
namely, two political factions. I
saw studintt endowed with the
privilege of attendlna college
lose their ffindshlp over fren
zied muckraekery. I saw all tha
dirty mess. Above all, I taw
those members of tha Student
council who said that t would
have to have a picture and didn't
enforce It. Yet, I am to blame.
It all because I am an Identifica
tion card and can't Identify.
IN LAST FRACAS
Huskers Lose in Belated
Rally After Deadlock
Throughout Tilt.
Scoring two runs In their half
of the tenth inning on a hit by
McNeil and a wild pitch by Ne
braska's third baseman, Eddie
George, the California Bears de
feated the Huskers, 4-2, in a ten
Inning game of baseball, the laat
for the scarlet this season.
Nebraska's threat in their half
of the tenth to again tie up the
score, was dispelled when McNeil,
left fielder for the bears, made a
spectacular catch of Dohrmann's
hard hit ball. George was on first
base at the time as a result of
a walk handed him by Priest, who
went the entire route for the
Bears. Borman went the ten
frames for Nebraska.
The game was tied up, 2 to 2,
when California's Devaurs, center
fielder, beat out a ground ball for
an infield hit. He was forced out
on second when Perry hit a roller
down to the shortstop. McNeil
drove out his second hit of the
game and Perry went down to
third. George threw the ball to
second as McNeil went to second.
The pitch was wild, allowing Per.
ry to come home and McNeil to
go to third. McNeil came home
when Deuzbou filed out to Eng
lish in left field. Flrpo flew out to
English to retire the side.
George received a walk to Initi
ate Nebraska's half of the tenth
Amen struck out. Dohrmann lined
a hard hit ball into left field, but
McNeil snagged the ball in a one
handed catch. Harris hit a pop
flv to the second baseman to end
the eame. Final score, California
4, Nebraska. 2.
Pitchers Stand Out.
Both pitchers pitched a good
game. Bill Priest, hurlcr for the
Bears, allowed eight hits, one
home run in the fifth by Paul
Amen. No one was on base at the
time. He struck out a total of
eight Husker batters while Bor
man was able to strike out but
three of the Bears. Borman al
lowed 12 hits and walked none.
Priest walked two men, English
in the second and George In the
tenth.
Amen, his home run with the
sacks clear, and Borman, scored
Nebraska's runs. California's runs
were scored by McNeil and De
vaurs, one each, and Perry two.
Hits by Nebraska men were reg
istered by Wilson, 1, George 2,
Dohrmann 2, Amen 1, Sundstrom
1, and Borman 1.
"Hook" Devaurs. centerficld, led
the Bears In hitting honors, re
ceiving three hits In five times at
bat. Perry, McNeil and Rapp each
tallied two of the team's total.
Flrpo, Lombardl. and Davis, pinch-
hltter in the ninth, eacn connected
for one aafe flow apiece.
California scored their runs in
the fifth and the tenth inning, two
in each. Nebraska tallied once In
the fifth inning and again In the
seventh to tie up the score, where
It remained until California's part
of the tenth.
Game time was two hours and
three minutes. Umpires were Muel
ler on the bases and Gaughan at
home nlate.
The eame marked me nnaie oi
the baseball season. George, Eng
lish, Amen, Dohrmann, Andrews.
8undstrom, Borman, and Delos
Johnson, reserve outfielder, played
their last game for the Huskers.

AS BIG SIX HEADLINERS
Speculation is rampant as the
hour for the opening of the annual
Big Six track and field meet nears,
One of the strongest teams
which will be bidding for the loop
crown will be Kansas State and
the Wildcats may gain some val
uable points in the stick events
with Dick Hotchkiss and Harold
Dodge likely to account for third
and fourth place in the 120 highs
and Hotchkiss taking a third or
fourth place in the 220 lows.
Charley Mitchell, the reigning
champion In the two mile, may
have a hard time retaining his
crown Saturday. Teammate
George Hofsett hat been beating
the champ consistently in the
last few meett. At the triangu
lar affair at Lawrence In which
K-State, Kantas and Nebraska
participated, Hoftess won the
event easily.
Yesterday's baseball game
with California had everything
In It that anyone could wish in
a ball game. It had blind um
pires, good catches, bone-head
plays, lots of hits, and not too
many runs. AM In all the game
was a good one and a thriller.
Surprised California.
The California boys were much
perturbed at being held down to
only two scores for sbout eight in
nings after the scoring spree at
Denver U. Saturday where they
ran across 15 runs.
Bill, the pitcher, was all fagged
out after hurling the pill across
for ten Innings and when he
walked in to the bench after the
Husker half of the ninth he de
manded extra pay from Bear
Coach Evans.
The second baseman, whom the
players called "Dlz" carried a nice
hunk of beefsteak inside of hi
glove. The boys got so hungry
at one time that they threatened
to produce a frying pan and fry
the meat.
Blind Umps?
After that freak decision at
first bate when Borman stepped
on the first sack a full stride
behind tht Bear runner, the Cal
ifornia bench declared that Ne
braska had a 10-man team with
the umpirt holding down the
other position. California got the
benefit of one decltion when Wil
ton tagged a Berkeley man at
teoond and the ump called him
safe.
Lowell Englith, inttead of bat
ting It down, tnagged a loul
way over by the left fence al
lowing another run to filter in.
the Hutker left fielder wat com
Ing at tuch a terrific tpeed that
when he finally taw that the ball
wat foul he could not ttop in
time to let it go.
Hutken Have "Good Team."
Although California won. they
declared that the Nebraska nine
was a good club, especially the in
field. Dow Wilson played a whale
of a game at shortstop and in one
Inning In particular accounted for
three assists to Amen on the first
sack.
B'.ar Coach Evans said that the
boys lacked a little spirit because
if has been three weeks since fi
nal examinations were completed
out In California. He said that
they start school out there about
the middle of August thus account
ing for the early closing time in
the spring.
This afternoon will be the last
chance which Coach Schulte will
have to polish up his Husker cln
dermen for a defense of their con
ference outdoor championship,
which will be held here Friday and
Saturday. Very little will be done
today; a few of the men may re
port for warm up drills, but most
of them will be content with a
shower and rub-down.
Tomorrow the entire team will
rest in order to be In top shape
for the preliminaries of the con
ference meet. The qualifying trials
will be held Friday atfernoon, with
the finals coming on Saturday ,
Nebraska's chances for repeat
ing its victory of last year grew
smaller and smaller as the time
for the opening of the meet draws
near, unexpected development of
strength on the other conference
squads, and injuries on the Husker
team are the cause of this.
Injuries Hamper Squad.
Two of the Nebraska varsity
men have injuries which seem
bound to keep them out of action
Friday. Elwood Pankonin, Coach
Schulte's second best quarter
miler, is still on the sidelines with
an infected foot. Pankonin felt all
right until a week ago yesterday,
when his right foot became so sore
that he had to use crutches. Only
the night before, he had taken
hard workout and was In fine
shape. He still walks only with dif
ficulty, and does not believe that
he will be able to run Friday in the
prelims.
A doctor's examination of Bill
Gish's right shoulder, which he se
siously Injured when he took a bad
spill Monday night, disclosed
very bad sprain, but no broken
bone as was at first feared. Unless
his shoulder shows rapid improve
ment, Gish will not be able to en
ter the meet. Some ligaments were
torn loose in the shoulder, and it is
feared that they will not respond
to treatment qluckly enough to
give Gish the use of his arm by
Friday.
Gish, a senior, Is one of the two
leading hurdlers in the conference.
The other man, Nebraska's Eldon
Frank, has competed along with
Gish for three years, and they had
hoped to finish up together by
sweeping first and second in both
the high and low barriers in tht
conference meet. Had they been
able to do this, It would have
meant 18 points for Nebraska in
these two events, but now it seems
likely -that Schulte will get only
ten of these much needed points
Simmons in Doubt.
Bob Simmons, coference 440
champion, has been forced to wear
a brace to protect his stomach
muscles, which have caused him
considerable trouble lately. This is
not expected to be serious, and
Simmons is doped to place high in
the quarter mile. Schulte is also
counting on him for one lap of the
mile relay.
After taking a hard practice ses
sion with the discus, Charley
Brock complainted of a sore shoul
der, and was ordered to lay off un
til Friday. Ray Baxter, indoor high
jump title holder, hurt his back in
a fall during gym work about a
week ago, and it is troubling him.
Both Baxter and Brock, however,
are expected to be ready by Fri
day. The last freshman tri-color meet
o fthe year will be held this after
noon. It will be run off as a part
of a dual telegraphic meet with
the Minnesota frosh. In the first
of these meets, held indoors, the
Gopher yearlings walked off with
a lop-sided victory.
