I TRACK WORK PROSPERS Several Stars Out Endeavor To Lengthen Training Season Insur ing Better Success in Meets Prospects are good for an excellent track -team this spring according to the Athletic Director, Guy Reed. One hundred and twelve men have registered so far, and new applicants are appearing every day. Mr. Reed wishes it understood that there is an opening for any one showing ability and wishing track work. -Among the men who have been getting out for track several "diamonds in the rough have been discovered. "Cub" Wiley, one of the greatest track athletes Nebraska has ever had is back in school and keeps the track warm for two hours every afternoon. His long suit is Jumping and vault ing and the sprints. Besides this old time star we have Captain Scott. Er- win. Maxwell, O'Brien, Gardippe, LeD endorfer, Raechie. R. W. Scott, Garri son, Ribble, Jones. .Aldrich. Bryan, Kratp. Ricke, Owen and several others. The freshmen turnout is good. 62 athletes working up form for a chance at positions on the varsity team neit year. The principal reason why Guy Reed is working so hard to encourage fall track work is to enable the Ne braska team to compete more suc cessfully with teams who have a Jonger spring training period than they did. By putting the men In shane in the fall they will be in good shape at the opening of the spring track season and insure more cnance of success against opposing teams.
