HUSKERS DEFEND
HER TOMORROW
Any team
can WIN
More and more futile become
our efforts to dope the Big Six
track and field meet which begins
Friday afternoon in Memorial sta
dium. Nebraska's chances to win
the meet become 1 v hs and less.
Husker stocks were given a ter
rific jolt when Bill .Gish tripped
on a hurdle in practice and in
jured his shoulder. It is thought
that he will not be able to run to
morrow unless his shoulder heals
more rapid than was anticipated.
Another blow to Schulte's hopes
is the fact that Elwood Pankonin,
440 runner, will not be able to run
because of an infected foot.
Any guess as to the outcome
of the meet will be just a shot In
the dark as anything can hap
pen. Any one of four schools
may carry away the diadem.
Nebraska and Missouri are the
most likely to do It while Okla
homa and Kansas State have
good chances of copping the
meet.
Oklahoma seems to be favored
to finish above Kansas State as
they demonstrated more strength
In the dua meet with the Wild
cats. The Sooners piled 72 points
yhile K-State was making 59.
It teems that Finley of Okla
homa will take the quarter mile
In the conference meet as he
rang up a new record at the
Jayhawk meet making the cir
cuit In 48.9 seconds to break the
eld mark.
Elmer Hackney, another sine
Winner, tossed the shot over 51
feet on all four of his tries and
won the iron ball event with a
heave of 51 feet 5 inches. This is
the second best performance in
the shot in the nation this season
with Ryan of Columbia the only
man to have a better throw. Hack
ney, who wears the colors of Kan
sas State, set a new meet record.
The nearest man to the "one man
gang" was Tteammate Vandcrbilt
whose best throw was 46-1

making the gruesome dragon roll
his head. "I suppose you are won
dering how we got the dragon to
breath smoke. Well, we have two
long tubes running down the back
and two words before the smoke is
to come out a person in back bloys
smoke into the tube. It has to be
timed just right or the whole ef
fect is ruined."
There are from seven to 23
strings manipulating the puppets
and it takes about seven people to
be working behind the stage. The
plays are special marionette plnys,
tho Miss Shanafelt said she often
wrote her plays because she liked
to write and in that way she
doesn't have to pay royalty.
"My next venture is to put on
an opera. I think that Gilbert and
Sullivan's "Pinafore" would be my
first choice," Miss Shanafelt said.
"Come up and see me sometime
and see our puppet scrapbook."

Schulte Want Cornhuskers
To Place in Every
Event Saturday.
Tomorrow afternoon, at 2 p. m.,
oach Schulte will send out his
1938 Husker cinder team in a de
fense of the conference title which
it won last year. The preliminaries
will be held tomorrow, with the
finals in all events being staged
aaiuraay afternoon. The meet will
be held on the Husker track in
Memorial stadium.
The Cornhuskers are not doped
to repeat this year. With the meet
drawing near, most of the "ex
perts" are picking Missouri, the
outfit which wound up in last
place last year, to edge out Ne
braska for the title. The Tiger's
strength this year is due to the
excellent crop of sophomores that
Missouri's Coach Chauntey Simp
son has produced.
Leading the Tiger aggregation
will be John Munski, entered in
the half mile and mile and almost
a cinch to win both these events,
and Ralph Waldram, looked to for
a new spear standard in the meet
Saturday. Durand, last year's win
ner, is not expected to do better
than second and possibly as low
as fourth.
Missouri exhibited unknown
scoring strength last Saturday in
dropping Kansas U by a very lop'
score. Three Tigers bettered 23
feet in the broad jump in this
meet. All these men, Klamm, Slay
ton, and Ii ick may pull an upset
and beat out indoor king Harwin
Dawson of Nebraska in this event.
Then, just to make their strength
all the more apparent, Waldram
threw the javelin over 204 feet,
and Vernon Ewing pushed the 16
pound shot out 47 feet 1'2 inches
to definitely establish him as a
threat to Husker Bob Mills for
second in this event. First place
in the shot is generally conceded
to It-Aggie Elmer Hackney.
Although it has been showing
rapid improvement during the last
week, Elwood Pankonin's right
foot is not expected to be in shape
to enable him to aid the team any.
Schulte wants to use Pankonin if
at all possible, but he probably
cant.
With these two exceptions, the
whole team is in fair shape. There
are the usual slight aches and
pains but nothing serious.
The Husker mentor has nomi
nated a list of 23 men to wear the
Scarlet and Cream in this year's
meet. One of these men must
be dropped from the list, as con
ference rules only permit each
team to carry 22 men for the
championship meet.
Those named by Schulte are
Harwin Dawson, Jack Dodd, Bob
Simmons. Elwood Pankonin, Al
Kuper, Paul Owen, Wilson An
drews, Harris Andrews, Bill Gish,
Eldon Frank. Elmer Dohrmann,
Ray Baxter. Bob Mills. Bill Pfieff,
Charley Brock, Don Monson, Bob
Neumann, Verl Athey, Ray Gatch,
Jack Calnon, Gus Peters, and Milo
; Hejkal. A list of all entrants, and
the events in which they will com
pete, can be found elsewscre on
this page.
The official starter for the meet
this year will be Herb Gish.
In the frosh telegraphic meet
with Minesota, held yesterday, two
Huskers stood out. Bob Beltz
turned in a :50.6 quarter mile and
came later to do a 2:00.5 half mile.
Kdsel Wibbcls topped the field In
three events, the shot put, the
javelin, and the discus. He threw
I the iron pill 43 feet 8 inches, the
spear 173 feet 9 inches, and the
discus 142 feet 11 inches
Cut Nebraska, Oklahoma and
Kansas State also have their back
ers. Some have become so accus
i tomed to discounting the tales of
! woe sent out each year from the
1 Husker camp, that they come out
before every meet with a predic
; tion for a Nebraska victory, with
out even considering what the
k SWANK
J-Hcre is, truly, a remarkable innovation...
Jthe Swank TV-swing... holding the tie se
curely, as does the tie-klip, yet allowing the
tie to swing freely and drape gracefully,
in the manner of the Swank cravat chain.

Huskers have. But Coach Schulte
is really in the spot he likes to
have this year, that of underdog.
His 1938 team is given little chance
for victory, but is picked often as
the second place outfit.
Despite their early season, 71-60,
defeat of Nebraska, the Oklahoma
Pooncrs are usually dropped into
third place in the dopings. For
this meeting, the first dual out
doors for the Huskers this year,
Schulte took only 12 men on the
trip, and thus dropped several
points.
But just last Saturday, the
I Sooners walloped the K-Aggics,
whom Nebraska had barely edged
out the week before, by a 72-59 de
cision. That should indicate that
j Oklahoma must be reckoned with
1 before the title is won by any team.
! Ward Haylett's Wildcats are the
dark horse of the meet. If they
get the breaks, there Is no telling
: what might happen.
! With his whole squad In shape,
j Schulte would have na excellent
I chance of walking off the field
with his third consecutive title
' next Saturday. But Bill Gish, who
had been figured on for at least
eight points in the hurdles, is laid
up with a badly sprained shoulder
and probably won't be able to run
tomorrow. Even if he does start,
Gish can hardly hope to place,
with his shoulder out of shape, In a
field which includes such men as
his teammate Frank, Dodge and
Hotchklss of Kansas State, White
of Missouri, Morris of Oklahoma,
and Wiles and Masoner of Kan
sas U.

checking eligibility and observing
the rules of the secret ballot and
of campus elections in general,"
the document concluded.
Being the only written reverber
ation to come out of Tuesday's
election, the protest found little
favor with newly elected members.
Members of the council explained
that laxity of the balloting was
the fault of the setting of the vot
ing in the Student Union.
"We have no option on the hulls
of the Student Union tike we had
In the Temple building," it was
explained. "In the Temple build
ing we can control electioneering
clear out to the steps."
The council took part of the
blame in that it did not have
enough of its members present to
control the muckraking situation.
The council denied its responsibil
ity and absolved the registrar'
office of all guilt concerning the
checking of eligibility of candi
dates. "It is the duty of the faction to
see that Its candidates are eligible
before they are slated," Al Mose-
nian, outgoing president, stated.
I he registrar s office could have
utterly refused to check any eligi
bility. It's not their duty.'
Members of the representative
body recommended that polls be
established to eliminate open bal
loting and also that student Identi
fication card pictures be securely
attached to the cards themselves.
Retiring from the presidency, Al
Moseman reviewed the activities
of council during the past year.

Missouri big threat to Nebras
ka's Big Six track supremacy,
boasts not only Waldram, Munski,
Ewing and high jumper Browne,
but a pretty fair sprinter and a
capable discus man who haven't
been getting much publicity.
Priesmeyer, Tiger sprinter, who
is Big Six indoor 60 yard dash
champion, won the 220 and was
second in the leserve center in
basketball, won the discus with a
toss of over 138 feet, which is
about as good as Mills and Brock
of Nebraska and Prichard and
Shirk of Oklahoma have been do
ing. One thing in Nebraska's favor is
the ability of Husker track teams
to come through when the chips
are down, while Missouri seems to
look good in warmup meets, but
flops in the big tests. Last year,
after finishing second in the In
door meet, the Tigers had the best
pre-conference meet records in sev
era events, yet finished a poor
fourth in the outdoor meet. They
didn't come up to expectations in
this year s indoor meet, although
Injuries to key men were partly re
sponsible. With Gish probably out of the
meet for the Huskers, It may take
a few flops, accidents, etc. on the
part of the Tigers to put Nebraska
in first place. Added to all those
natural factors, we have seen ex
actly 12 Nebraska track meets

Season of 'Ups and Downs1
Coach Knight's Men Chalk Up
4 Victories, 6 Defeats,
.400 Average. i
Coach Wilbur Knight's 1938
baseb all team concluded Tuesday I
a season inai was pacaea lull or
variety. The team, on the home
grounds, has displayed the acme
to be wished for in a good team
and has just as well demonstrated
all of the flukes that a bad team
can do.
Altho the team got off to a bad
ftart, losing to Baylor, Missouri
and Kansas State while winning
only one from Oklahoma A. & M.,
the Huskers settled down and won
more than they lost for the re
mainder of the season.
Improvement Shown.
This season's showing in the Big
Six competition is a marked im
provement for an average of an
even .400, while last year the team
chalked up 4 wins and 9 losses for
an average of .308. The season's
record for the team stacks up to
the same figures as the conference
record. Nebraska lost 9 games
during the season while entering C
under the victory column which
gives the team an average of .400,
the same as for the Big Six stand
ings. An interesting turn of events
