I've got them
By Jm Evinger.
When Coach "Biff" Jones calls
for a secret practice for his foot
hall units, he really means what
he seta down as his orders. Mon
day afternoon, your boy "James"
went over to cover the first day of
spring football practice out-of-doors
for Boss Gal June Bier
bower. I went toddling up the steps onto
the freshman football field with
the prestige that I was going to
cover the spring practice session.
That was by intention. An officer
patrolling the gridiron had other
intentions. And thoy were stronger
intentions.
No authority.
It seems that I didn't have any
authority to trespass on the field.
I had to have a pass or a signed
7iote from Sports Ed Bierbower.
So, I hurried buck to the DAILY
office for Bierbower's signature.
She was in class. Editor Dick
deBrown tackcel a signature to a
note and I let that serve as a pass.
Back to the stadium again.
The Gridiron Gendarme still
wouldn't let me cover the practice,
as he claimed that Bierbower only
had the authority he recognized
A gloomy but more enlightened
writer trod back to DAILY offlc
with his report. In the meantime,
Alex "Grantlaml nice" Mills came
to the rescue as he was a recog
nized reporter and secured the
football practice story for today
Nyah, nyah.
Next time, it's a signature by
Bierbower that I'll take to cover
practice sessions. I don't want to
be looked upon as a foreign spy
inn npx t time I trod on Biff's foot
ball fields. The long arm of the
law is not gonna catch me
nyah, nyah. But, when Biff says
secret practice, he really means
what he orders.

portant step in life, however, In
view of our findings I could not
generally advise against it.
Makes research.
In an attempt to determine the
average success of college mar
riages, Dr. Popenoe made a re
search on the following three ques
tions: Who paid the bills? did
both husband and wife succeed
in being graduated?, and were
they happy? He found that as a
rule the financial side or the part
nerships worked out agreeably and
could not be used as a criticism.
The probability of both graduat
Ing from college was found to be
small. In many cases the hua
band quit school to work, or the
wife, In order to have a child, was
forced to drop out.
Fear result of bad marriage
The marriage of low-grade mo
rons and high school imbeciles (as
Dr. Popenoe refera to men and
women having the unstable emo
tional minds of children) are
more to be feared than actual
child marriages. Popenoe sees the
marriage age being raised to 18
sometime In the future. He cited
Kansas as a present example of
the extreme, where a girl may
marry at 12 and a boy at 14.

SUGENE LITTLER
Lincoln Journal.
Nebraska's track forces really
did themselves up proud, Satur
day night, at the Armour Tech re
lays held in Chicago. Four sopho
mores again Harold Hunt, Bill
Smutz, Gene Littler, and Harold
Brooks were the shining lights in
the star studded
carnival.
Coach Ed
Weir's quartet
Edsel Wib-
bels was left at
home because
of a sore hand
came flying
thru with three
clear cut first
places and a tie
for another.
The conflict
ing reports
gave Hunt a
win in the pole
vault but Weir
said Monday
that Hunt was
tied by Williams of Wisconsin at
the hcighth of 13' 7si". Incidental
ly, that was the highest the sopho
more has ever vaulted and it broke
the school marks for both indoor
and outdoor performances in this
event.
Bill Smutz was troubled by the
70 yard hurdle races in placing
third and fifth due to only three
jumps over the distance. It is more
of a race for a sprinter than what
Smutz has been accustomed to.
Coaches and critics alike were
full of praise for Littler's wins in
the 70 vard dash and the 440. In
the short dash, "Red" was trail
ing only 10 yards from the finish
line but he pulled up fast enough
to win by a yard in the closing
strides.
A picture in the Chicago Herald
American of the finish of the race
shows Littler really lunging at the
tape with his head pushed down
and forward in real fullback plung;
ing fashion. In the quarter mile
Littler had a lead by about four
yards at the finish.
Brooks' time of 4:23.7 is the
second best mark he has set this
year. His first quarter of the mile
was swung in 62 seconds and had
a half mile time of 2:10.8.
Weir is Issuing another call for
many prospective track athletes
who were out for fall practice but
have since not turned in any ap
pearance. The squad as a whole is tapering
off in practice until after spring
vacation before hitting the out
door track. Nebraska's next con
test will be in the Kansas relays
on April 20.
Gridders work
outside second
time this spring
The Cornhuskers came outside
yesterday for the second time this
year, having been held back by
bad weather conditions. They now
hope to get in some real work.
If good weather keeps up there
will be a scrimmage before the
week is over, as Head Coach Biff
Jones and his staff desire to put
the boys through extensive drill
ings. Monday afternoon's labor
consisted in running through
plays, while blocking, punting, and
passing occupied the rest of the
session. The first scrimmage will
probably be Wednesday afternoon.
YWCA sponsors
Easter service
The last YWCA vesper program,
held today at 5:00 o'clock in Ellen
Smith hall, is a special Easter
service. The program, conducted
by Mary Bullock, Vesper chair
man, and Frances Keefe, Vesper
choir director, consist mainly of
musical selections.

It's sure success
when gym classes
go coeducational
Oh boy! boys and erirls. at last
its here. At least its here as far
as Drake University is concerned.
Its mixed physical education
classes for men and women, and
for credit too.
Last semester two golf classes
and three social dancing classes
were offered and according to
Ruby Ann Holton, "There is no
question about the success of the
classes." Attendance has been
larger than ever before.
This semester, badminton, bowl
ing, horsemanship, archery, and
angling are expected to be added
to the schedule. Canoeing, swim
ming, and boating may be added
at a future date.
