tion. He sketched sumo health rules
which he said every student shouU
know and follow.
The quest Hm-ef student bealih pre
sents two factVs, said tin speaker.
First cornea the personal factor. Every
student should know and take into
consideration any physical woi-Kness-es
ho may have. The physical ex
aminatui. of.en reveals such defects
as adcaoric, flat" feet, faulty vision,
b;ul ieeth, poor posture, and nhnor
mal blood pressure. If an examination
should reveal any of luese weakness
es, tliu fiud-nt should immediately
set about 'o overcome them. With
few except-ons tlie people who aie
cussfully i0 things in the wond u."
well Cjiiipi'ci rliysicaliy.
Prof. Lcuhring said that ho l .pcd
before long to sue the university jiv
ing two examinations year to all
students. These examinations bhould
be followed up, and wlieie some re
medial defect, is discovered, tin phy
sical education department should as
sist tho student in finding the right
method of cure.
Secondly comes the environmental
fiictor. College students have tc con
tend widi certain unhealthy condi
tions which other people do not Some
of these conditions include poorly
ventilated class rooms, excessl.-e eye
strain, bad posture influence, neavy
schedules, physical inactivity, and in
door work. Considering these condi
tions, what kind of a health program
ought a college man or woman to
have?
Some of tlie high points In a sane
health program were then outlined by
the speaker. A student should firrt
undertake to correct any defects such
as faulty vision, flat feet, etc. Ho
should develop to a maximum degree,
hi. muscular system. Two bouis each
day should be spent in tho open air.
The sunlight is better than night ah
but night air, contrary td a belief
sometimes voiced, is iiot injurious. In
studying, a student should try to havo
the light come over his left shoulder
and should never faco tho light di
rectly. Bad posture can be corrected
by calisthenics. A heavy schedule
should bo offset by complete relaxa
tion and plenty of sleep.
Prof. Leuhring recommended espe
cially to the students, walking, hik
ing, calisthenics, swimming, and com
petitive games. Some of these rules,
ho said, might seem hard to follow
but a student cannot under any cir
cumstances afford to neglect his
health. A body abused and neglected
In youth will never bo vigorous or
capable of enduring fatigue and hard
ship in later life.

COACH GIVES MEN WORKOUT
Oklahoma Line Tips the Scales
Heavier Than Huskers and
Will be Formidable.
Scrimmage for tho varsity began
last evening when Coach Dawson sent
the first string men against Coach
Farley Voting's yearling aggregation.
The Huskers went Into the fray with
i surprising amount of vigor and
;ainod almost at will ugaha-t the
younger men.
The result of the Notre Dame- con
test lias Lit an entirely different
rtniosphcro pievaiiing over the Husk
iT camp and tiie Scarlet and Cream
athletes are going into the game with
almost an entirely different attitudo
ban has been displayed previous to
this time. Coach Dawson has made
S..IHO minor changes in the team but
the regular lineup will probably start.
Saturday against tho Oklahoma Soou-
ers.
Report.: from Oklahoma indicate
that tho Soonoi's aie invading Liul
coin tiiis week with tho intei.ions
of taking tlie long end of tlie score
Kiine with them. The outcome of
Satu. day's contest will be watched
from all parts of the Missouri Valley
w kli interest as tiie victor will more
than likely be the Missouri Valley
champions for tiie 1021 season. Lust
year the Huskers did not have a
chance audt he Oklahoma team grab
bed the honors.
So far the Huskers have not met
a team that would equal themselves
in weight but Saturday followers of
i he Scarlet and Cream athletes will
have a chance to see an eleven in
action that will more than outweigh
Coach Dawson's men. Tho forward
wall ot the .Sooner aggregation i3
touted as one of the greatest defen
sive combinations in the country.
Thus far this season Coach Bonnie
Owen of the Sooner clan has had
considerable trouble in getting co
operation with his line and backfield
men.
The Sooners won their game Satur
day from the Washington university
eleven by a good margin but were
scored on for two touchdowns and
displayed to the Valley contenders
that they did not have an unbeatable
eleven. Coach Owen hopes to improve
the Sooner aatck to such an extent
that the Ilusker defense will be shat
vored. Tiie weak point of the Sooner
combination has been the offense and
Nebraskans will probably have a
chance to witness some of Coach
Owen's craftiness in the new Okla
homa attack.
Tonight and tomorrow will prob
ably see the Huskers in tho hardest
workouts of the season and Coach
Dawson is sparing no one in an at
tempt to bring the Huskers into first
class conditions to battle the Oklaho
ma eleven. Following tho Sooner con
test the Coinhuskers will take the
road for the longest trip of the sea
son. Pitlshurgh will be tho destina
Lit. n of tlie Scarlet and Cream athletes
where they meet Glen Warner's
Panthers in an inter-sectional con
test. Coach Warner's aggregation
turned in a S5 to 0 victory over Syra
cuse Saturday and from a scoring
standpoint have one of the strongest
elevens in the east.
