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.

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.

National Rifle association matches

and Clifford Thompson. Alternate

Jorgenson.
Creighton tmiversity was third
in the meet, Kansas State, fourth

K-State and Wichita had the

record made so little impression

it. McDermott was a member of

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.
