These days of Indian summer
certainly bring out the athletic
prowess in the activity of the boys
on this campus. For instance, we
took a stroll over the campus yes
terday afternoon and here are a
few of the doings that were going
on:
Over on the athletic fields, the
barb and fraternity intramural
football games were in full swing.
...Girls were among the cheering
and interested spectators inspect
ing the boy friends in their trials
and honor for dear old Tappa
Keg. ...
The tennis courts had their
share of outdoor enthusiasts..
The final rounds in intrafraternity
even a few boys and girls were
nlavine: tennis aerainst them
selves. . . .
Intramural golf was also taking
its toll of players on the golf
courses. .. .Weather like we've had
the last few days brings out the
duffer in the best of us. . . .
Baseball candidates for the
varsity ball nine were also out in
full regalia The coliseum had
its fill of athletes what with bas
ketball players, gymnasts and
members of gym classes working
out ....
In the coliseum pool, candidates
for the swimming team were get
ting into the swim of things...,
Fresh footballers were getting in
their practice licks as well as were
the varsity gridders....
Girls had their share of athletic
work also with their intramural
programs of soccer baseball..
Anci the spectators were just as
plentiful at times around the girls'
playground as around the regular
men s athletic field. . . .
Yes, that's the way we found the
athletic activity Wednesday .. .all
kinds of sports were being played.
. ..Upward to several hundred stu
dents were taking part in tome
athletic activity of some kind..
Okay, all you would-be athletes,
here are your chances to get out
while the weather is still good. .
The opportunity is there. .. .Take
advantage of it. . . .
The Bifftr used 35 players in the
rout of Kansas.. . .The first team
erf wore out the Kansans while the
seconds, third, and fourths did the
rough riding Even Jack Vin
cent, number five tailback, ran and
passed in fine style in the last
quarter.. . .
It was amazing to notice how
the fullbacks could spring thru the
Kansas line The Nebraska
front wall opened up huge holes
for the line rammers to burst thru
. . . Little Ken Simmons was adding
as much average yardage per try
an the heavier backs....
The scores thru the line in the
Kansas game were the first thusly
so by the Huskers this year...,
The touchdowns against Minne
sota and Indiana were by passes..,

specialized study of the life and
habits of whales. In 1908, he went
to Vancouver Island and Alaska,
and later was a special naturalist
aboard the U. S. S. "Albatross"
on a voyage to the Dutch East
Indies, the Borneos and the
Celebes in his search for the giant
sea mammal.
By 1914, he had filled an enor
mous hall in the Museum with his
collection of whales and other wa
ter mammals and had written two
extensive works on 'The Califor
nia Gray Whale" and "The Sea
Whale."
Then Dr. Andrews turned his
attention to land explorations. He
felt he had done his duty by
whales. After an expedition into
the unexplored forests of northern
Korea and along the Manchurian
border, his attention was focused
on central Asia by Prof. Henry
Fairfield Osborn's prophecy that
this grim plateau would prove to
be the incubating center for north
ern mammalian life.
It was a region as yet little
known either geographically or
scientifically. Dr. Andrews' ambi
tious program was to learn its
geological structure, fossil life,
past climate and vegetation; to
make collections of the living ani
mals, birds, fish and reptiles, and
to map the unexplored regions of
the Gobi desert.
