DRAKE LOSES
IN TWO GAMES
Huskers Take First from Visitors
by Score of 7-3 and
Second 1-0
PITCHING A FEATURE
Superior baseball on the part of the
Huskers was responsible for the Drake
Bulldogs returning home the losers in
both games of their series with the
Nebraska nine. The significant score
of 7 to 3 spelled defeat for the Bull
dogs in the first game and the Husk
ers took the last game with one score
better than the goose-egg acquired by
the Des Moines team.
The first game started off with
everything Drake's way. Two hits
followed by two errors on the pan of
Ihe Nebraska team was responsible
for three runs crossing the plate in
the first inning. The Huskers came
hack with one score during their bat
ind two more in the third placed
them on even terms with the Uuii-
dogs. Hubka's hot grounder througn
second in the fifth when bases were
full gave Nebraska full rights to the
game.
Captain Pickett's ten strike-onts had
a great deal to do with the winning
of the game. Consistent hitting on
the part of the Husker team kept the
Bulldog pitcher in hot water all of
the time. Pickett secured two doubles
and a single while McCrory also
wielded the stick for three more.
Swanson and Smith secured their
share with two apiece.

CONTRIBUTIONS
"One student contribution or
five hundred dollars has already
been received." said Guy Reed
Thursday in an interview re
garding the Memorial Drive for
the new gymnasium and stadi
um. Every student will not be able
to give this much; this part'c
ular student was "privileged."
Every student will not be able
to give a tenth as much, or a
twentieth as much, hut EVERY
CORNHCSKER IS WILLING.
READY AND ABLE to give one
fiftieth as much, which is ten
dollars. This is within every
one's financial scope, even
though some sacrifice may be
necessary.
If each of the 4.500 students
at Nebraska wtould contribute
ten dollars a piece, approximate
ly $45,000 would be raised and
the 1'niversity's quota would be
passed.
What is your decree are we
to "go over the top" with a
hang?

440 DASH CLOSEST RACE
Both the varsity and the yearling
were victors in their meets on the
Nebraska field Friday afternoon.
The varsity took the measure of th.,
Minnesota cyphers in a 61 to 51
count while the Wesleyan Coyoter,
lost their meet by the decisive scoro
oi 06 to 16.
Minnesota took the lead at the out
set when Kelly and Johnson took
both places in the hundred-yard dash,
and held it until the 220-yard low
nrdles when Wright broke the Ne-
l.raska track record and won first In
he fast time of 26 1-5. The meet was
well balanced throughout the whole
afternoon. Minnesota took the lead
'n the dashes, but Nebraska's ability
! the field events left the outcome
:f the meet no longer in doubt.
Finney's time of 15:03 in the high
hurdles was one of the features of
the afternoon. Schfeitzer or Minne
sota nosed out Kretzler at the flnisn
ii the mile run with the time or
4:41: but Graff ran his usual easy
'race in the two-mile and after leisure
ly glancing at his watch a couple of
times decided that it was about tinv
to spurt for the finish and finished
first in 10:07 3-5.
The 440-yard dash was the prettiest
race of the day. On the last tu-n
Gibbs coming in strong from the rear
of the squad passed McNally, the
Minnesota quarter miler for first
place in the time of 52:02. McMahor,
came in for a close second. Moulton
or Nebraska pulled the surprise of
the afternoon when he cheated the
Minnesota team out of second place
the javelin throw. They had al
ready accepted both places but his
final throw of Moulton for 152 fe.u
placed him in second place. Deering
and Gish carried of honors in th.i
broad jump.
