Damp Field
Changes Tilt
Until Today
First of a series of two games
with Iowa State college of Ames
was not played due to conditions
beyond the control of everyone
concerned. (We hope the Japs do
not get any information from
this.)
No, the coaches of the respec
tive teams ventured out upon the
diamond at about 2 o'clock and
decided that the infield would be
a bit too soggy so the game was
not played.
Weather Is Question.
Weather man permitting the
two mentors, Ad Lcwandowski
and Le Roy Timm, will pit their
two nines together in a regula
tion tilt. The Cyclones hold the
Indian sign over the Huskers,
having won from them twice be
fore on the home field.
Cap Timm will select cither Al
Strohbehn or Willard Mylenbusch
to take care of the mound duties
for the visitors while Ernie Swan
son will probably get the call for
the Nebraska nine.
The Husker diamond squad is
still after its first victory of the
1942 season when they meet the
Cyclones and if they do.

Footballers
At Army Base
KEESLER FIELD, Biloxi, Miss.
An "all out" football campaign
that will include games with col
lege and university elevens from
every part of the country is being
planned for Keesler Field next
fall, First Lieutenant Arlo, M.
Klum, post athletics officer, an
nounced today.
Negotiations are under way for
a eame with a Southwestern con
ference college eleven, Lieutenant
Arlo Klum, head football coach at
the huee Air Corps Technical
school here, declared.
Has Made Name.
Keesler Field already has made
a name for itself in football cir
cles thru its game last December
with the East All-Stars in what
was the first appearance of a col
lege all-star team at an Army
past since World War I.
Lieutenant Klum, former as
sistant football coach at the Uni
versity of Nebraska, said that
games also will be scheduled -with
other Army camp teams. Other
members of the coaching staff
will be announced later, he said.
Big Six Gives Foes.
Games with a Big Six team and
possibly a member of the Big Ten
are being considered, and several
tilts with eastern teams are pos
sible. "Since our game with the All
Stars last December, when we
played after only a few days'
practice, plans have been solidi
fied and prospects for next sea
son arc very promising," Lieuten
ant Klum stated.
"We are working on the pre
mise that athletics especially
football are the best possible
training for the kind of strong,
ready soldiers that will make vic
tory certain."
