Poor Bcrnie Bierman is again
moaning about his Minnesota
footbnll team, Baying after last
week's scrimmage: "The squad
hasn't shown much football so
far." May 20 is the Gophers' an
nual open game, but according to
the Minnesota Daily, the coach
said he couldn't guarantee much
of a show unless his team takes
a very marked change for the bet
ter. The Golpheis will be green next
year, and Bierman claims none of
the newcomers except perhaps
Bruce Smith, star triple threat
back, have proved themselves to
be of Big Ten calibre. However,
the newcomers held the veterans
to a 7-7 tie in a game two weeks
ago.
Minnesota's spring practice, like
the Huskers', has been held back
by bad weather, which is prob
ably one reason for the "sloppy
ball handling, lack of downfield
blocking, and.... not too heads-up
ball carrying" which featured the
last game.
BUI Callihan, Husker fullback,,
came In for a hot time Tuesday
night at the N-club initiation. Bill
was working when he was to be
initiated as a sophomore, and had
never turned up at the Initiation
since then, so now, just as he's
getting ready to finish school, he
was Inducted into the club with
one of the best paddlings ever
given a Husker. Moral a stitch
in time save nine or a good pair
of pants.
The thrill what didn't come:
Yotirs truly had skipped home to
put on a coat because of the rain
in yesterday's track meet.... we
, hopped, skipped, ran and lunged
over to the shot circle only to
learn Elmer Hackney had just
pushed out his 53 feet 4Vi mark
in the shot, and we didn't get to
see it.... Jock Dodd will be the
18th man from Nebraska in at
tendance at the Drake Relays....
Ed Weir was undecided about
whether he'd take Dodd or Bob
Chatt, but named the Husker
gridder after the K-State meet in
which he finished third in the
century.
Ralph Worden, conference div
ing champion, picked up a third

thruout entire meet;

Kansas State took an early lead
and ran over the Nebraska track
sters 77 to 54 here yesterday aft
ernoon as Elmer "One Man Gang"
Hackney lived up to his name and
heaved the shot 53 feet 4',i inches,
his best mark ever, and the best
mark in the county this year.
Hackney shot the pill the farth
est on his second preliminary
heave and then sat back to watch
the others fight It out for the re
maining places.
The Wildcats got off to their
early advantage by sweeping the
mile and the high hurdles. Ne
braska came back in the pole vault
with all three places.
Simmons Eases Thru.
Bob Simmons had little compe-
for the Huskers in the low
hurdles. . . . Reason Ward Haylett
didn't run Dick Toole in the 440
was that he was saving him for
the 100 and 220. . . . Strategy
worked, too, as the soph was first
in the 100, second in the 220. . . .
He In all probability wouldn't
have beaten Simmons In the 440.
Simmons, for the third time this
season, won both the 440 and the
lows for the Huskers ... he may
be a double champion in the Big
Six meet if he can beat out the
Omaha hurdle entries . . . Bob,
PBK of the Nebraska team, is en
tered In the Drake special 440.
Bill Vanderbilt, the K-State shot
putter who grabbed off a third In
the javelin, hadn't thrown the
soear in six years . . . Elmer
Hackney was entered in the dis
cuss, but that's about as far as it
went. . . . Elmer was having a
good time in the discus ring, one
of his throws going exactly 108
feet . .. they didn't bother to
measure the others.
Father O'Conner, prominent
spoils figiue around here, says
he's trying to get the girls' na
tional A. A. U. track meet at Lin
coln for a couple years hence. .
What would Fred Ware say to
that. . . . O'Conner, who played
football at Nebraska, was born on
the corner where the tennis courts
south of Bessey Hall are now .
he's one of the Huskers' most
faithful followers . . . maybe Fred
Ware would be interested in this,
too: A member of the K-State
track team (we won't, for fairly
obvious reasons, mention his
name) was a bit worried whether
or not he'd make it back to Man
hattan in time for a 9 o'clock
date last night.

By this time I was very un
spirited so I decided to take on a
spirit or two at "Buffalo Bills." In
an hour or two, I was the acme of
spirituality. Walking down the
main "drag," I came upon a cop

and the weight events. Lloyd

the Husker colors in the dashes
while Bob Mills and Edsel Wibbels
