Bowl after K-State!
With one game left for Nebraska's gridders to play, sports writers over
the state, and many from other sections of the nation, are booming the Ilusk
ers for a bowl berth. Rumor has it that the Scarlet eleven may invade the
Rose Bowl if Texas A. & M. and Kimbrough bow to Dana Bible's Longhorns
Saturday; rumor has it also that Sugar Bowl officials in New Orleans like
the Iluskers as an opponent to a southern team on New Year's day.
With a victory run of seven games following a one-touchdown reversal
at Minneapolis, the Husker squad, we opine, is a logical choice for SOME
bowl, if it trounces Manhattan's Aggies Saturday.
Bowl promoters need colorful teams in the New Year's games. Nebraska,
with a long record of successful football is definitely colorful. Two victories
over Minnesota in the last four games, two straight wins over Pitt, wins over
Big Ten teams like Iowa and Indiana year after year, and almost complete
domination of the Big Six except for brief intervals have sent Cornhusker
stock booming in the eyes of fans and writers in every part of the nation.
And an even more dominant part of the Cornhusker record has been
the predominance of home-state boys on the teams during the past decade
of successful football. Playing without the stench attached to schools which
subsidize so openly and outrageously, Nebraska has gained nationwide re-
- - fiommswt - -
f
pect from coaches and writers who know football and football conditions. '
Oklahoma and Missouri went to Bowl games during the past three years.
Big Six schools consented to their trips. If Nebraska receives an attractive
bid, Big Six schools should consent again.
Cornhuskers have brought most of the prestige that the Big Six con
ference has received during the decade just completed and it would be
almost niggardly if any member of the conference refused consent to the
Huskers traveling away on New Year' day.
And as a reward for those seniors who have contributed so much to the
success of Nebraska football, who have literally staged the comeback of Ne
braska football after the disastrous 1938 season . . . n bowl trip would be in
order. (
We can't count our chickens before they hatch, however. Kansas State
comes here Saturday after a two week rest. The Huskers haven't had a
good outside scrimmage for almost three weeks and may not be in condition
to thwart an inspired Aggie team which has had its strength increased by
the return of the man who stood out at Manhattan last year . . . Mr. Kent
Duwe.
And so, for further opinions regarding a bowl game, we should wait un
til Saturday afternoon, around 4:30. In the meantime, the slogan, "Bowl after
Kansas State" might be polished and shincd. We hope to use it in Sunday's
paper.

Some people work crossword
puzzles. Others like tfc-tac-toe
games. Some people draw pictures
on the walls of telephone booths.
We know guys who sit and stare
dreamily while tearing pieces of
paper into long strips.
Anyway, the idea is to pass the
time and keep from getting to
work. How to fill in that dull half
hour before hitting the books,
that's the problem. And, as part of
our service to make life brighter
and happier, we do not propose to
keep our readers in the dark
about the latest ways to while
away valuable time.
Here's one good way.
You say to your friend or room
mate or the man who comes to
collect the money for the paper,
"Do you know how the Egyptians
used to multiply?" and he says
"No" and you produce a pencil and
a piece of paper and say, "Well,
euppose they wanted to multiply
36 times 29."
Your friend yawns. "Yeah?" he
says cynically, "well suppose they
did?"
"Well," you say, demonstrating,
"you put the figures down ue
this:
36x29
The you divide 36 by 2. That
gives you 18. You put mar. aown
under the 36, like this:
36x29
18
Then you divide 18 by 2 and
that gives you 8. Right? Right.
You put that down under the 18.
Then you divide 9 by 2 and that
eivea vou 4.
Here's where the whole secret
liesyou drop the fractions. You
forcet All about them. You put a
4 under the 9. Then you divide 4
by 2 and that gives you z, wmcn
you also divide by 2, placing a 1
at the bottom. You should now
Jiave a column of figures like this:
39
18
9
4
2
1
Okay," your friend says, "so
what? I can write down figures
too."
You grab him by the coat lapels,
stick a foot in the door to prevent
nls leaving, ana continue :
Now vou take the second fieurc
29 and multiply it times two. That
gives you 58. You keep multiply
ing times two until your whole
problem looks like this:
36x 29
18 58
9 116
4 232
2 464
1 928
Remember, always drop the
fractions in the left-hand column,
Now. don't rive ud. You go
thru the left-hand column and. for
every even number in the left col
umn you cross out tne opposite
r.umber in the right-hand column.
Now the only numbers you have
remaining in the right-hand col
umn are 116 and 928. You add
those together which irives VOU
1044, the correct answer to 36
times 29.
That's how the Egyptians lived

alike, but they
can conflict too
