Mentor Adolph Lewandowski's
Cornhusker cape club continued
preparations Thursday for the
Dec. 12 fray with the South Da
kota flippers.
Fundamnetals were the source
of attention during the drill as
the Husker mentor attempted to
improve the Huskers' ball-handling.
Shooting, always an early
season problem, also was given
attention.
Hartman Goetze, St. Joseph
courtster, continued to hold down
the varsity pivot post. Sid Held,
lanky 6-4 contender for All-Big
Six laurels, teamed with Max
Young at the guard spots. Johnny
Thompson and John Fitzgibbon,
small but speedy performers,
manned the forward berths.
Second team positions were oc
cupied by John Hay and Les Liv
ingston, forwards; Lyle King, cen
ter, and Charles Vacanti and John
Botoroff, guards. Nebraska's pe
rennial 11-man traveling squad, a
goal for soph cagers, will find a
bevy of potent first-year cagers
scrapping for the extra berth.

Littler to Return
Contrary to earlier reports, Eu
gene "Red" Littler will definitely
defend his Sugar Bowl crown in
the 440 yard dash. . . . Bids to
run in the meet that is the big
track event of the south during
the winter season were sent out
earlier to five other quarter mil-
ers. . . . Evidently the Sugar Bowl
officials had noticed that they had
neglected the runner that copped
the event last year. . . . They sent
a bid and Littler accepted.
A Vote of Confidence
Major Lawrence McCeney
Jones, athletic director at the uni
versity, has been given a vote of
confidence. ... At the meeting
of the athletic board yesterday,
he was given a renewal contract
for five years. . . . Evidently the
action met with the Major's ap
proval and he announced that
there would be no personnel
changes in the coaching staff for
the next season.
Confidence?
There is such a thing as being
sure of yourself. . . . And then
again. . . . Coach Don Faurot does
more than guess about the out
come of his Tigers in the Sugar
Bowl aerainst Fordham. ... In
fact he predicts the winner which
is none other than . . . Missouri.
Annual Tussle
A post season tilt that is of
bowl-like proportions will be on
tap Saturday. . . . The occasion
will be the merciless slaughter of
the Cornhusker yearbookies by
the Daily Dracula team. ... Of
course the crowd (pre-game esti
mates place the crowd at 40,000
in round figures) will not get
much of a chance to see the Year
bookies in action due to the fact
that the Daily team will have it
most of the time. ... At any rate,
it should be a good contest in
spite of the Daily's competition
and spectators will be amply re
warded for braving the elements.
. . . 2:30 p. m. Saturday will be
the kick-off time.

back and half-wit. The Draculas'
formidable line reading from right
end to the other end are Harold
Bremers, Ed Hirsch, George Ab
bott, Phil Cantor, Morton Zuber,
Ben Novicoff and Helen Kelley's
stand-in, Harold Hopkins, who
knows more about a pig's skin
than a pigskin.
The Cornhusker at the last
deadline was unable to complete a
full team, but will probably scare
up something before game time
that is, if they haven't heard about
"it." Rippling Russel, the Year
book coach, in an "off the record
statement revealed that her team
was badly out of condition taking
for example Ed Calhoun, who now
is so weak, he can't even grow
hair.
We hate to be prejudiced, but
if "it is there, and if "it is it,
as Kerrigan said "it" would be, the
