Hurt Cyclone
Swim Hopes
Nebraska hopes for a swimming
victory over Iowa State Saturday
have taken a decided jump fol
lowing the report from the Ames
campus that three navy splashers
who scored points against the
Huskers in the first meet between
the two schools, have been taken
from the squad by military trans
fers. One of the three, Dick Lepman,
was a double winner in the first
meet, winning the 60 and 100 yard
free style races. Bob Pritchard, a
second transfer, placed second in
the diving competition.
Huskers Ready.
The Husker mermen have been
turning in good times in recent
drills, and Coach Ed Higgin
botham believes his men will give
the Cyclones a much closer battle
in this second meeting. The Io
wans swamped the Huskers in the
first meeting, winning 66 to 18.
Bill Burr mnd Fred Hamlen have been
the Krartet mainstay all season, and they
will romnete in their pet events In Sat
urday afternoon's meet which get under
way at S::iO. Hnrr Is entered In the 100
and HQ yard freestyle raers and will alas
swim a lee on the freestyle relay team.
Hamlrn will go to the mark In the 440

Two outstanding Cyclone per
formers will still be around to
cause plenty of trouble. Larry
Koppin and Carl Brandner, win
ners of the 220 and 440 freestyle
events in near record times, will
be in action Saturday.

Gamma's "Toyland" featuring
huja-girl Ruth Korb's "Oh, My
God!" remark following the flash
of a reporter's camera, drew
hearty applause.
"Order in the court!" as only M.
A. Cawood could shout it intro
duced Kappa Alpha Theta's judi
cial scene of "Technique vs.
Swing." Alpha Xi Delta's ballet
presentation of "Seasonal Moods,"
lent dignity and beauty to the
overall performance. With each
change of season, the performers
shed one net skirt. Growing boy
that I am, I hoped for a late
spring, thereby insuring an eye
filling performance, but the cur
tain squelched by desires.
"Egyptian Ella" found me
swinging from the chandeliers.
"Towne Club Blanche Duck
worth's educated hips would have
put Solomon's beauties to shame.
The club's "one for the boys in
the fcalcony routine" earned first
place honors in te skit division.
Jackie Scott's portrayal of the
"Lady" in Green in the Alpha
Chi's musical tableau, of "Frankie
and Johnny" sent my socks rolling
up and down my leg like a win
dowshade. The Alpha Phi's "By
the Sea" sea-side scene, took sec
ond place in the curtain act col
umn. Pee-Wee Novotny proved
the worth of the girdle in her de
piction of a heroic lifeguard. Only
comment "My own flesh and
blood brother!"
Sigma Tau Delta featured
clever originality in "Fairytale in
Scarlet and Cream," and captured
second place honors for the skits.
I give them top honors also for
being the only ones to mention
"coed" in their act and thereby
reminding me where I was. The
"Put-Put gals" socially recognized
as the Mortar Boards, won the
brass mug of achievement with
their "Eager Beaver" routine.
Following a beautiful display
of young womens' fashions, Jo
Ann Ackerman was introduced to
the audience as the 1946. Typical
Nebraska Coed. Also presented to
the crowd was Jack BuIfirjton

Honors in Swim
Tourney Finale
The intramural swim finals on
Wednesday night turned out four
new meet records in pool events.
Bob Suhr, Beta backstroker,
broke the old record for the 100
yard back stroke in the prelims
last week, only to see his time
bettered by ATO Rex Boyd in
the semi-finals. Wednesday he
posted a blistering 1:18.8 for the
distance to beat the old record by
ten seconds, an dBoyd's time by
three-tenths of a second.
Bob Harse, ATO, likewise
shattered an existing record when
he raced thru the 220 yard free
style in 2:56.6.
New Relay Records. "
Besides these individual times,
original records were set in the
team events when the 150 yard
medley and the 200 yard free style
relays were swam for the first
time in intramural competition.
Alpha Tau Omega won first
place in total team scoring with
an aggregate of 45 points. Phi Del

In Final Rally
A last minute scoring spurt gave
Kansas State a 54 to 49 decision
over the Huskers in a Big Six
thriller Friday night. The K-State
hosts held a 26-24 halftime ad
vantage and managed to subdue
all invader scoring thrusts.
The Huskers were frigid at the
foul line, missing a total of 13
charity tries. Dave Weatherby,
Stater forward flash, collected 11
points for the evening to give him
a conference total of 127 points
for the season.
Weatherby's performance was
dampened, however, by the Husk
er forward Joe Brown's sharp
eyed ability. The Nebraska flash
swished eight from the field and
dunked four gift shots for a total
of 20 in the point bracket.

Sparked by the sky scraping
Schleiger brothers, who literally
dropped in 23 of the 30 points,
the Fijis were too much for a
short but fighting Beta team.
Schleigers Pace Fijis.
With a smooth woiking floor
game led by Jus Berger, the Betas
never stopped pushing, and cut
the lead down to one or two
points time and again. When both
Schleigers went out on fouls with
five minutes left in the game.
and the Phi Gams only five points
ahead, it looked like anybody s
ball game, but skillful stalling by
the Fijis gave them the victory
and a slot in the finals against the

With the Big Six track and field
championships only a day away,
several questions remain unan
swered in the minds of Husker
follows as they atempt to figure
the probably outcome of the meet.
Will Bobby Ginn be entered in
the mile and two mile? If he is
entered will he be able to win?
Will Dean Kratz, Ted Randolph
and Ralph King be in shape to
produce their best performances?
Will the Nebraska athletes come
thru with enough third and fourth
place points t back up the first
place performances which seem to
be fairly certain?
Just how Coach Ed Weir will
enter his middle distance and dis
tance aces to produce the maxi
mum point making ability is a
probleb. With Bobby Ginn, Dean
Kratz, Don Yocum, Wayne Roads,
Stan Martin and Bob Davis on
hand, the Huskers have a potent
array of strength, and this group
will probably provide the neces
sary points if the Huskers are to
win the meet.
Injuries to hurdlers are the
bugaboo of this week's prepara
tions, for in addition to Nebraska's
Ralph King and Ted Randolph,
Missouri's ace timber-topper, Bob
Chase is also hampered by injur
ies. His appearance in the Kansas
City meet is doubtful, and if he is
absent, a goodly portion of the
probable Tiger points will vanish.
Another interesting angle is the
performance of another Missouri
athlete. Dick Higgins, who has
cleared 13 feet in the pole vault
event in prewar days is back in
school. Thus far this season Hig
gins has reached a height of 12
feet 6 inches, but may threaten the
Huskers' Dick Miller. Miller has
reigned supreme in a cvlass by
himself for the last two years.
Nebraska's strength from this
point of view, seems to be concen
trated in the 440, 880, mile and
two mile on the track, and in the
shot and pole vault in the field.
If King is in shape to race, both
hurdle events should provide more
counters for the Husker total.
Whatever the outcome, the Scar
let squad will be represented by
a team with enough numerical
strength to produce the valuable
third and fourth place points that
the champion must have.
TO ALL VETERANS
I have purchased this space in order to
bring to your attention a few very relevant
facts:
Those of you who are fraternity men, as
I, myself, am, all know of the existence of
the infamous "faction" of Greek organiza
tions. This long-dormant faction has once
again sprung to life after a war-time ab
sence. The faction is violently opposed to
any form of veterans' organization which
might come into existence on this campus.
Now, just why should this be true?
The implication is an obvious one. The
notorious faction has, in the past, wielded
considerable power on the campus. It evi
dently fears strong opposition from a group
of veterans who wish only to promote the
welfare of a sizeable number of university
students the returning ex-servicemen;
make certain that they receive their just
dues, but in so doing strive to be of some
worth to the student body as a whole, not
to merely benefit an insignificant few!
I, for one, do not choose to prostitute my
right of franchise to any minority group! 1
shall never become a slave to any faction!
This newly-organized Veterans' Organ
ization of the University of Nebraska is a
great step forward in freeing intelligent,
self-respecting individuals from the vice-like
grip of a self-centered minority group of
people who think only of their own personal
gain!
As a nominee for the position of vice
chairman of the Veterans' Organization of
the University of Nebraska I appeal to all
enlightened student-veterans to attend the
next meeting of the organization on Tues
day evening in the Student Union ballroom,
cast their ballots for the various officers,
and then support their chosen leaders in the
promotion of the principles as stated in the
constitution!
Respectfully submitted,
Don J. Baker, vice-chairman nominee
