Coach Miller Has . .
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.

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.

I'm Het-up
At a recent Student Council meeting, the work of the intramural
department was commented upon. . .Subject of the attack is no quite
clear to us but in general it hinged upon the alleged failure of the de
partment to get behind the national defense effort. . .This was a bit
nettling to intramural director, Rollie Homey, and I can see his point
on the matter.
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.
