A hint of the future trend in regard to the re turn of war veterans to college Athletic competition may be found in a review of the present year at the University of Minnesota during which 20 wearers of the gold discharge button have taken a prominent part in intercollegiate competition. The 1944 Gopher football team had six discharged veterans in its first-string lineup, and every one played a prominent part during the season. They were Rudy Si kich, tackle, Vic Kulbitski and Hockey Mealey, fullbacks, Bob Graiziger, guard, and Matthew "Mutsy" Nolan and Wayne "Red" Williams, left halfbacks. All were in the marine corps. Baseball leads in numbers, with seven vets on the squad. These men are Hockey Mealey, catcher, Bob Graiziger, catch and first base. Wayne Williams, second base. Bob Schumach, pitch, Jim Nelstead, pitch, Joe Tufigno, pitch, and Earl Bruhn, outfield. One of the principal cogs in the Minnesota basketball team, Wal ter Rucke, was wounded in action while serving as a navy medical corpsman in the Pacific. Henry Bishop, who played . gaurd, re ceived a medical discharge from the army. Graiziger, most versatile of all Minnesota athletes, was the only service 'vet on the hockey team which rated as one of the best in the university's history.

The high school discus record set by former Husker Howie Debus, when he was attending high school at Lincoln High, was broken last week by a Minnesota lad. His name is Bryl Thompson from Minneapolis Southwest High school. His toss at the South Dakota relays seems to have pleased Minnesota's track coach according to a release from that school. It says: "The beaming smile which en veloped the countenance of Jim Kelly, University of Minnesota track coach, after he heard that Bryl Thompson of Minneapolis Southwest high school had broken the national scholastic record in the discu at the Aberedeen, South Dakota relays with a toss of 176 feet 4'z inches was prompted by more than eager anticipation of possibly someday having Thompson as a Gopher star. "Because his high school had no indoor or outdoor track facilities, the rangy, earnest prep athlete had requested permission from Kelly early last winter to work out in the Minnesota field house. All through the winter he ap peared at the field house at least four times each week for lengthy conditioning exercises. He per sistently sought Kelly's advice on building up his strength and im proving his form. When the Gopher trackmen moved outdoors, Thompson moved with them. Then, in his second competitive effort of the season, he surpassed the old na tional prep mark of 174 feet inch. Coach Kelly might well be called a "discus specialist" for he developed Bob Fitch who as a senior at Minnesota in 1942 was undefeated in the discuss event in all competition. Fitch won the championship in the Texas Re lays, Kansas Relays, Drake Relays, the Conference meet, the National A. A. U. and N.C.A.A. meets. Fitch, presently a CPO in the coast guard, holds a Gopher rec ord at 166 feet 16 inches. Debus played on the 1941 and 1942 Cornhusker football teams and was also the leading weight man in the Big Six track circles at the time. He won the javelin throw at the Drake relays in 1942. Debus also holds the state high school pole vault record. l)4ri GAY- BABY PANTIES lltj diet etic 2 .50 Elasficized sheer vith lace edging. In white or pink. Small, medium, large. STREET FLOOR p. S.
