Willi, AeL
BY GEORGE W. ABBOTT.
Story of the year: In a YMCA game at Canton, N. C, Whites
beat the Blues in an eight hour engagement (without substitu
tions or rest periods). The score: 1,328-786. High point man
gathered in 500 points. Comment: hardy little rascals, those
Carolinians.
Wish for the year: Recent NCAA interpretation of army taking
ovc colleges has it that this means varsity college athletic grad
uates now in service vvho happen to be reassigned to universi
ties will still be ahle to compete in sports.
The wish then : that Nebraska pick up a Governali, a Trippi.
a Glenn Dohhs, a Sinkwieh, or even a Kohrig when the reassign
ment comes; or better still, just Iransfer the Great Lakes naval
training station to Tiineoln, using Salt Lake and Salt Creek for
nautical training, the Kussian flats for land practice.
On subsidizing: Jack Cavberry, sports editor of the Denver
Tost, still taking it out on southern football writers . .none
can say-none would say thaat the Universities of Georgia,
Alabama, or Tennessee are anything but temples of learning!
But not a sports editor in the deep south will go so far as to say
that a boy from Ohio and a boy from Pennsylvania will choose
a school in Georgia for its academic background alone. Not when
Pennsylvania and Ohio State (are) . . .in their own back yards."
Yes, and: Not a sports editor in the Rockies or the Big
Horns or the Wainics or Tetons would say that a boy from
Gary, Indiana (Milo Konienich, Wyoming U.'s towering cen
ter), would choose Wyoming for its academic background alone.
Not when Butler, Purdue, Indiana U., Northwestern, Notre
Dame, Iowa State, Iowa U. are all within a couple of ax-handles
of the railroad track running from Gary to Laramie. Wy
oming, incidentally, tinder Coach Av Shelton's expert and wary
eye, has won a fourth place ranking among the country's cage
teams this year.
Out of the mail: from one Francis Hackett, Box 346, Mahwah,
N.'J.:
"Brother and Fellow Deadline Artist:
Am looking for Jim Reynolds, last seen in hotel in Lincoln.
Newspaper man, sports and free lance. Last worked for Des
Moines Register-Tribune, out of Ames, Iowa. Would deeply
appreciate any trace of him. His younger brother, my best
friend. Have not been able to get in touch with younger broth
er. Might get his home address off hotel register, about month
of last May or June; time of ball game between Iowa State
and Nebraska 7:1 's." (Apparently baseball teams.)
The question then: Has anybody

AMES, Iowa, Jan. 9. Don't be
surprised if even the gymnasium
roof space is converted to handle
part of Iowa State's gigantic hard
ening program.
"We haven't started using our
roof space yet in our efforts to
toughen our men for fighting,"
George F. Veenker, director of
athletics, admits, but we may
have our Army and Navy fliers up
there before long."
Service Conditioning.
To the list of every Iowa State
student in the conditioning pro
gram has been added 1,600 navy
men and 50 army and navy fliers
a total of 5,000 crowded into
our gymnasium facilities. In ad
dition, we have 4 varsity, 4 fresh
men, and 150 "intramural squads
working out daily.

until 11 at night our facilities are
used to capacity," Veenker ex
plained. "That includes daily use
of our difficult obstacle course,
All of our facilities combined are
busy during 200 class hours a
week, which means long hours of
work for the staff as well as the
students.
Add Faculty.
"One more step remains before
we are 100 percent on the job we
have to find room to add our fa
culty to the program. The fa
culty has requested a place in the
hardenine program, so we'll fit
them in. too."
With all the crowding, Veenker
savs extra precautions to safe
guard health are being taken.
Locker rooms, shower rooms, the
dooI. and cvm floors are treated
at least once a day, usually twice
A total of more than 2,000 towels
are laundered daily.

are hard to make and may be even
harder to keep but Iowa State will
still compete in a winter sports
program, George F. Veenker, di
rector of athletics, said in an
nouncing a partial list of contests
for the next three months.
"In spite of ihe difficulties of
war-time travel," Veenker ex
plained, "we are trying to keep
competition going in all sports.
We feel they all make a contribu
tion to the physical condition of
the men who soon will be fighting
and we want to see that every
sport is continued."
Swimming in Process.
Veenker announced wrestling
and track dates but said the swim
ming card was still in the process
of completion. Four dates for the
wrestlers are set with a homc-and-home
contract with Nebraska
likely to be completed soon. Two
track meets have been listed for
the indoor season.
The swimming possibilities in
clude meets with Wisconsin, Ne
braska, Michigan, Michigan State,
Carelton and Minnesota. All but
the last two meets would be held

Navy basketball team gets its
first taste of Missouri Valley com
petition Monday night when it
plays Drake at Des Moines.
Chief C. T. Warrington, Navy
coach, has announced he will carry
12 men on the trip. Starters for
the Bulldog game will be Joe
Reese and John Sal ash, forwards.
Bill Friedman, center and Bob
Archer and Everett Hunt, guards.
Other men making the trip in
clude Bob Charles, center; Jack
Feree, Bill Fouse, Bob Scott, for
wards; Howard Ortmeyer, Don
Wan drey, Merland Howes, guards.
The dope, based on a compar-
sion of the performances ot uie
two teams against Simpson, points
toward a Bulldog victory. Drake
stopped the Redmen, 42 to 27,
while Simpson defeated the Ty
phoons, 48 to 35. However, addi
tions in player personnel and a
new coach since that time give the
Navy five hopes of upsetting the
Drake team.

Nebraska and Missouri fought
to a series stalemate last winter
the Tigers clipping the Huskers
39 to 33 in the opener, and the
Scarlet combine sweeping up the
second contest, 40 to 39 in a
thrilling finale.
Reports from Columbia, home
base of the Missourians indicate
that the Tigers will have a fired
up five awaiting the Cornhusker
arrival. Top man and high scorer
of the Tiger brigade seems to be
Jenkins, fast breaking forward
threat to run the Husker'a stub
born defense.
Saturday's struggle is slated to
have no evident bearing on the
loop race but might serve as a
spring board for the Huskers yet
unvanquished in conference play.
