Vital element In the stabiliz
ing of a college football team
is the diet upon which that team
derives it nutritious foods....
in other words, the dinner table.
Poorly planned lop-sided caloried
dinners have been proved scienti
fically to give a minimum average
of the best that can be gotten out
of food, whereas a carefully
planned meal, with the correct
amount of vegetables etc. will do
wonders in building the physical
framework of a person.
With the adoption or an evening
training table in the Big Six con
ference, coaches will be more as
sured that players will be in the
bent physical condition so far as
having enough stamina and pep is
concerned. Poorly planned meals
in fraternity houses, where men
in the house usually plan those
meals, are a far cry from the
nutritious board to be planned
for football players in the big Six.
The men who do not live in fra
ternities, who perhaps work for
their board, or who eat in restau
rants do not get the meal they
would get at the training. Those
who oppose the training tabic on
the ground that it is more or less
paying players forget that we do
owe them something besides the
exorcises they get from playing.
They make money for the
Univeisity, they help pay for
your debts and mine, which the
University piles up in trying to
give us the best of whatever
goes in to a university.
An evening meal won't break
the University, and will prob
ably, altho not so noticeably, im
prove that important source of
revenue, the football squad.
Notice on the Minnesota-Nebraska
game program that cam
eras of any kind are prohibited
from being used at Ri Ten con
ference games. Funny ruling, nut
the deans of the Western confer
ence must have some reason for.
Minnesota sidelines were lined with
camera fiends, but that game
wasn't a conference game. Per
haps the rule was included in the
book because of unsportsmanlike
scouting conduct -that may have
been carried on.
Cameras are made to take
pictures, football fans pay
plenty to see college games, es
pecially in the Big Ten ,they pay
plenty for cameras, they would'nt
mind remembering some of the
highlights of the game.... why
shouldn't they be allowed to
take pictures? ... .me no can
see.
Question raised now is who has
the best backfield, Minnesota or
I'ilt ?.. .Nebraska will be one of
the few teams in the nation to find
out. . .personally, I can't conceive
tif a harder hitting, better block
ing, itmch smarter backfield than
the one that ran thru the Hus
kers Saturday.

Chosen yesterday morning to

State was Wild Bill Callihan,
Grand Island senior, the Biffer's
first string fullback, and probably
one of the two best line backers
in the conference.
Bill Pfieff, victim of Minnesota's
powerhouse thru guard, did not
report, keeping in mind that one
cannot run about on a badly
sprained and bruised ankle. The
chances of Pfieff appearing on the
field Saturday are about 1 to in
finity. The showing of P.ill Her

able to fill in for wee Willie.

boys.
Iowa Stale, in the meanwhile, is

and has high hones of tipping the

Big Six Coaches Plan
Changes at Session
A question of extreme contro
versy during the past few years
and one which brought forth opin
ions varying all the way from
learning the in-1 whole hearted enthusiasm to defi
side about Iowa nnriQ!i snn ,,,. c.,i,i io.i
week by Big Six conference heads
at Colombia, Mo.
The Big Six has adopted the
familiar training table, with a few
restrictions thrown in. Squad
members of Big Six teams will,
henceforth, be given their evening
meal by the school for whom they
training table has
not yet been instituted, but the
time is not far off when tired
gridders will be able to eat to
gether, eating food that wiil no
doubt be prepared by the ablest
of cooks and meals planned by
careful scientific nutritious meth
ods. When asked what they thought
of the plan. Nebraska players re
plied whole heartedly that they
favored it. Thurston Phelps ad
mitted that "a lot of the fellows
who need money will be aided a
great deal by this plan, enabling
them to continue their education.
"Even tho it seems that the
school is helping them stay for
football purposes, that idea Is ab
solutely all wrong. Players come
to Nebraska to get an education.
Four years away from home, that
is for out state men, isn't really
worth just the glory and fun of
playing football. It's an education
that the boys are here for. The
few dollars saved during the foot
ball season by the training table
may be just the money that will
keep them in school."
Ruling Limits.
Limitations placed upon schools
instituting training tables includes
a ruling that the maximum
amount to be spent for food dur
ing the training table season will
be $1,000. No football instruction
will be allowed at the tables.
Also passed at the Big Six meet
ing was a recommendation to se
lect a commissioner in charge of
officials at conference games. Se
lected to fill this office was Reeves
Peters of Kansas City. Another
recommendation made was that
the Big Six indoor track meet be
held in the Kansas City Municipal
auditorium. This recommendation
will be passed upon at a later
meeting.
Biff Jones, Cornhusker coach
expressed himself as being for the
plan wholeheartedly, altho he
could not state definitely just when
and where Nebraska training
I tables would be held.

laurels to De
staged in the
conference's 10
year history.
Never before
have experts so
steadfastly re
fused to pick a
"favorite."

kept the Cyclones in the grme. 1

fans fear that these two may I
cause the downfall of 1938 Big

drills that all
doubt was eras
ed as to who
would fill one
of the flank
positions.
Grimm has
had two years
of e x p e rience
with the Husk
ers, but did not
break into the
the regular
lineup until this
year. He gained
much expe
rience and
many minutes
last year at the expense of Elmer
Dohrman who was injured. It was
during this time that the Nebras
ka fans were given a good indica
tion of what they might expect
this year.
Grimm is not only a ball player
but an actor as well. Instead of
dividing his playing time into so
many minutes ,it should be divided
into a series of acts and scenes.
He is a great favorite of the fans
because of his ability of showman
ship. One is never sure Just what
to expect out of him, which adds
to Ins ability to attract the fans.
Weighing 180 pounds, he stands
6 feet 1 inch, and makes his home
in Omaha when he is not at the
D.U. house. When he was in Oma
ha he participated in athletics for
the Benson Bunnies.
AWGWAN APPEARS
(Continued from Page 1.1
tresting pages is an ad of World
Peaceways Inc., showing the di
rectors of a big; munitions com
pany in meeting, with the general
sentiment being, "Shucks, fellers.
they ain't gonna be no war after
all."
Fashions for both men and
women are well handled in two
pages titled "Fashions for Fellows"
and "Coeds Figure for Fraterni
ties." The former is an advertise
ment, but the second would seem
to show that fraternities had bet
ter keep up with their arithmetic.
Then too, there is the inevitable
"Tasty Pastry" with pictures of a
lot of boys and girls.
Edited from its spick and span
headquarters in room 20 of the
also spick and span new Student
Union building, the new Awgwan
shows markedly the loss of the
traditional and inspirational cock
roaches of old U hall.
