TUESDAY, MARCH 28, 1939 DAILY NEBRASKAN THREE Col 9 9L by June Bierbower Following Is an extemporaneous speech given by Corby Davis at a banquet in his home town honoring the high school's basketball and football teams according to the Indiana Daily Student: ( Applause ) . . ."Er-er-this is a surprise, that is erer kind of. You see I didn't know that.er ah I was coming up here until about ah ah two o'clock this morning when Ralph (Ralph Graham, Indiana as sistant coach) called me up and told me so.-Er, that is, ah-haw--I was studying at the time, (pro lific booing as Corby blushes). Ah I don't really er er know what to say. I ahmm ah sure am glad I came, ah because the food was good, and ah ah haw, I sure like to eat ha, ha. Thank you." Brother acts are again fairly prevalent on the Husker squad this spring. Bob and Royal Kah ler are back, as halfback and tackle respectively. Then there are Ed and Sam Schwartzkopf, Ed is a freshman and Sam a two-year veteran at tackle. The younger of the brothers has been promoted to a first string guard berth on Biff's Harvard team. Then there are Ray and Jerome Prochaska, both ends. Although Ray is a sophomore and his brother is a freshman, Jerome is the older of the boys. Three members of the squad are younger brothers of former Husker stars. Jack Ashburn, end, is a brother of ex-N. U. wingman Cliff Ashburn; Freddie Meyer, center, is a younger brother of Franklin, former ace pivotman, and Vike Francis is Sam's brother. Stanford has probably the best two shot putters on any team in the country in Stan Anderson and Bill Wohle. Anderson did 52 feet 2 inches Saturday for the best performance in the nation to dale, while he also did 51-10 at a Long Beach meet the week before. Wohle has done 51-8. And it would be pretty hard to find a team with three better Jave lin tossers than Southern Cal. Bob Peoples, of course, is the leader, the Oklahoman having a mark of 234 feet 1 7-8 inches, while an other sophomore, Hugo DeGroot, who has been throwing the spear for only two years, has a mark of 216 feet to his credit. Reed Truscl has bettered 207 feet, and placed in the NCAA championships last year. Remember a fellow by the naem of "Jumping Joe" Will iams? A few years back Will iams, a sophomore, made every 6port page in the country by virtue of a hot-shot press agent and by virtue of some fancy ball carrying for Ohio State. Williams, however, ran into scholastic difficulties, and drop ped out of school. Now he is a freshman at Marshall college, which, although you probably haven't heard of it, turns out some pretty snappy football teams for a little school. Dick Amerine, Kansas U. back, suffered a' shoulder injury Satur day which will keep him out of scrimmage for the remainder of npring practice . . . Amerine, who was thought to have been lost to the team after a vertabra injury last fall, had run 53 yards for a touchdown on the third play of an intersquad game . . . Two Iowa State swimmers placed in the Na tional Collegiates last weekend . . . sophomore Roger Adams was fifth In the 50-yard freestyle, and George Haldeman was fourth in the 200 yard breaststroke in which Trinceton's Richard HouRh set a new world's record . . . Jim Brock, big K-State blocking back. Is about the only pitcher in sight down at Manhattan . . . Women's 35c Phi Gams take League iV bowling title Acacia, Sig Ep, Sigma Nu stand in three-way tie fo League III honors Phi Gamma Delta captured un disputed championship of league four of the intramural bowling by defeating Beta Sigma Psi 1,524 to 1,438 in their final round last night. Prior to the match the two teams were tied for first place in their league. Lloyd Hill led the Phi Gams with games of 162-159 for a total of 321, while topping the losers was Roscoe Heins with a 325 score. Acacia bowed to Sigma Nu in the feature match of the evening 1,543 to 1,617 as Forrest Blood led the Sigma Nu's with a total of 355 closely followed by Marv Plock, Acacia, who totaled 350. Led by Bob Dreibus, Sigma Phi Epsilon nosed out the S. A. E. team 1,612 to 1,580. Dreibus com bined games of 197, individual tops for the night's performance, and 164 to get a score of 361. Bui Buchanon led the S. A. E.'s with 364 to grab top scoring honors for the evening. With one round yet to go this throws league three into a three way tie for first place with the Acacias, Sigma Nus, and Sigma Phi Epsilon fighting for top hon ors. The tie will probably be played off in the final round of that league Wednesday. NU rifles take second place Iowa State wins first in Inter-Collegiate meet Nebraska's rifle team placed second in the Inter-Collegiate National Rifle association matches fired at Kansas State yesterday.

Biff Jones suffers from flu siege Assistants direct practice; scrimmage, set for tomorrow Even the mighty are unable to escape the prevalent campus jinx which has been dogging the foot ball team and campus alike, as Maj. Lawrence "Biff" Jones left his coaching duties to fight an attack of flu. The Biffer send his gridders his regrets, however, and put them into the hands of able assistants for the afternoon drill. Unwilling to miss a single hour of the lim ited spring training period coaches and players alike braved the blustery March weather and got in almost a full afternoon's work. Only one change in the lineups resulted from last week's play, as Ed Schwartzkopf replaced George Stearns in the first string guard position on the Harvard squad. Two scrimmages have been scheduled for next week, one on Wednesday and the other on Sat urday. These will not be open to the public, however. Five continents, 32 foreign coun tries, two territories, 48 states and the District of Columbia are repre sented in the Cornell university student body. Phys ed class season closes Monday, April 3 It was incorrectly announced in some of the gym classes that the present season classes ended today. Classes will meet as usual until Monday, April 3.
