Four Reasons For Huskers' Gym Slump This Year Graduation, ineligbility, illness and the army dashed Coach Char ley Miller's hopes for a successful gymnastics season this winter af ter he had issued the initial call for practice last October. The graduation of Gier, South wick, and Giffith from the power ful 1941 team, left Coach Miller only Johnson, Kreisser, and Pelcak as a nucleus for the 1942 squad. After the first practice session, Miller had learned the bad news that Johnson was in California . with the air corp, and that Kreis ser would be called to the army any day. To make matters worse, sopho mores; Bush, Toohey, and Turpin were declared inelgible, and Don ley underwent an operation. A start from scratch had to be made. After many weeks of hard work, a team was moulded toge ther which could carry the brunt of the work. This sophomoric team opened the season against the powerful University of Illinois barmen. Af ter meeting Minnesota, Indiana, Iowa, Chicago, and Southern 111. Normal, the Huskers finally broke into the victory column against the "Carls" of Carleton College. The season from a standpoint of victories was not a success, but from the improvement angle it was very successful. Next season should be the ban ner year for the Scarlet andCream barmen. Lettermen McMasters, Pelcak, Porter, Griffith, Cooper and Hodges will be back. I IV beauitjul $tyu$. It deicrlbes advantagei cf lmiC'JS PATENTED FILTER I Wm. Demuth A Co Inc., N. Y.C pJMlTltt) . WiiftVWfli ill IP ' Gridders Mix In Inter-squad Scrum Battle Putting into action what they have been getting drilled into them the last week and a half, Husker gridders went thru their repertoire of plays with active blocking and active tackling yes terday on the practice field. New faces were prevalent in the Red and Blue outfits, denot ing the army and navy squads, and both teams went to it with a gusto. The Red firsts engaged the Blue seconds and vice versa as four teams got into action. Bertyl Gissler, elongated 6-7 e'id, was the thorn in the oppo nent's side in the brief scrimmage as he consistently pushed his big form thru to stop plays gomg around his end. The play was spirited and al- tho there were blocks missed and Dale Wismer collided broadsides with Bob Deviney, both in quest of a would-be blocker, it was still a successful practice session from coachs and players stand points. with the new field house ris ing in the north end of the sta dium grounds, the setting was perfect. In fact the weather was such that It seemed like a pre game workout during the fall.

Words, Not Action So far on this campus, the "defense activities" have consisted of little more than concentrated talk, a student committee and plenty of noble goals... The intramural part of the university is a very necessary part and I don't believe that anyone will contest that fact ...The department is willing to act but there must be something upon which to act and also something with which to act. ..A limited budget keeps the department skimping. . .There is barely enough to pay for the overhead the organization has to Incurr each year to keep going.. .This includes one or two steady employes plus trophies and the like... It 1 our point that the l-M department at this university is functioning to the maximum point of its ability. . .This can be shown by looking over some of the activities offered. Wide Field This year there are both fraternity and barb intramural programs, reaching almost 50 percent of the enrolled male population in the uni versity. . .The fraternity ranks have about 90 percent participation while the barb ranks have only about 30 percent. . .There is a good reason for this since a great many of the barb men have to work dur ing the evenings and although they desire to compete there is no time open. . .On the bassi of other schools, Nebraska can hold itsead high in the consideration of percentages participating. . .There is almost every sport on the books offered besides for the men to make use of Ask the Men Ask the men of the university whether or not they are satisfied with the set-up and nearly everyone will say yes. . .They realize that it is functioning to the best of its ability. . .You just can't ask for more... To get down to the specific charge that the organization has not lined up with the defense theme prevalent on the campus I think that it has no bassi. . .Unless the intramural program is made com pulsory, there can be no change. . .But, rest assured, If there is any definite way In which this vital phase of Nebraska's sports program can materially aid the defense actions on the campus by action in stead of by a number of well-phrased words similar to the ones that have been flying thick and fast since the conflict started, they wilt do it. 5V PHILLIPS HARVARD.
