ter weather, keeping the partici
pating teams from getting in the
final games.
Race Looks Tight.
According to Roily Horney, in
tramural director, this year's race
looks like a close one. Horney of
ficiated in the Phi Gam-Beta bas
ketball final and said, "The game
was the best Class A final that in
my opinion has ever been played.
Both teams worked smoothly and
functioned as a unit
This year's I-M play in the cage
sport was well recieved as can be
evidenced by the number of men
participating. In Class A ball,
there were 241 men and in Class
B, 227. Combined, this forms a
majority of fraternity men elig
ible for competition, proving that
the I-M department is keeping
pace with the present war efforts
Half Way Point.
The point totals Include scoring
in football, volleyball, water polo,
badminton and Class A and B bas
ketball Sports remaining on the
I-M docket are table tenntt, bowl
ing, handball, track and softball
along with the finals in tennis and
golf. The f irBt three will begin this
week.
On April 1 and 2, track will be
the main thing in the spot light
with preliminaries the first day
and the finals on the following
night This is a major sport along
with baseball.
Starting in the next few weeks
will be aottball. Due to the chang
ing of the second semester sche
dule there will have to be more
crowded into the remaining time.
Change Schedule.
In Horney's opinion, there is a
chance that three or four softball
contest an evening will have to be
scheduled. The shift to war times
allows plenty of sun light to shine
on the subject and the change will
be a welcome one.
The way that the I-M scoring
is made, rests upon major and min
or sports. Major sports include
football. Class A basketball, iracK
and softball. Minor sports take in
all of the others.
Total points that a champion in
a major sport can win are 150. For
a minor sport, 50 is the limit Class
B basketball rates 100 points.
State Fiesta
Starting Thursday, 32 high schools throughout Nebraska will send
their cage squads to the all-state basketball fiesta to be held on
Thursday, Friday and Saturday. . . . There will be four classes, A, B,
C, and D, with eight teams competing in each league. . . . Since last
years the Nebraska high school athletic association has split up the
Class A schools as they stood last year and put the smaller teams into
Class u. . . . Tnus they had to add a Class D.
Class A Close
As u.ual the Class A league will give the Nebraska highs their
1942 cage champ and as usual this looks like a duel between Omaha
and Lincoln entries. . . . Don't get me wrong, the other schools In
the league will give them plenty of trouble but the "big city" quints
should work their way into the semi-finals. . . . The two Omaha
representatives, Creighton Prep and Omaha South, have been given
the seeded positions in the two brackets.
Lincoln-Northeast
Another thing that was settled last week-end was the Capital City
rivalry. . . . Lincoln high and Northeast met in the regional finals
down Beatrice direction. . . . After Northeast's 26-17 win over Lin
coln in seasonal play, the latter came back to plaster a 44-24 defeat
on their foes. . . . There's some old axiom that seems to nt tnis situa
tionHe who laughs last, laughs ... or something to that effect.
Swimmers Wind Ud
For the second year, the Scarlet swimmers splashed their way
into the conference third spot. . . . They lacked tne weii-rounaea
aDDearance which thev exhibited a year ago. . . . Les Oldfield proved
that he was king of the waves in the backstroke in a decisive man
ner by hanging up a new conference record In his pet event. . . .
He lowered the market which he set up last year by a second and
a half in 1:46.1. . . . BiM Edwards, who has been hampered all sea
son long by sinus trouble, was second in the 50 and the 100 free
tvle EDrints. ... He has shown the sprint men some gooa swimming
this season by winning unexpectedly against Wisconsin and Minne
sota entries. ... He also set a new pool record down in Kansas
State.
