SPORT RAITS
A subscription to Nebraska's Mem
orial gymnasium inakeB an appreciated
and lasting pill to the school which
is preparing you to go out and battlo
along life's pathway.
The spirit that enabled Nebraska to
defeat the Pittsburgh Panthers last
fall is the same spirit that prompts n
group of Nebraska football players at
tending the slimmer school to dally
practice passing the oval pigskin so
as to be able to better handle the ball
when practice starts. . .The same spirit
also guides a man to work at hard
manual labor .throughout the summer
so as to be in fine physical fettle to
withstand the trials or the football
field. It is the spirit that wins for
Nebraska and is worthy of high com
mendation.
Today eight Nebraska t'ornhusker.i
will work to place Nebraska on th-
map in track. Last year five men en
abled Nebraska to take sixth place 'n
tho same calibre of a meet. Whether
this year's men do better or worse
than that. Coach Henry K. chulte cer
tainly deserves a vote of thanks for
the work he has done toward increas
ing Nebraska's rating in the sport
which is international in its scope. Not
only in the university but in the hi?h
schools of the state has the work of
the Nebraska mentor been felt.
Twilight baseball continues to hold
a high place of Interest among sum
Nner scchool Btudents. Applications
for positions on the Slimmer Nebras
tan team have been coming In thick
and last. Should more men apply for
places on the newspaper team than
can be entered as members, it is prob
able that they will be "sold" or gen
erously awarded to some other team
In the league. Hut, nevertheless, any
men who can play baseball should not
hesitate to apply for places. There is
plenty of room for all baseball players
'In the league ami no man will be de
prived of a chance to show his goods.
Start of the Twilight league schedule
will probably be made early next
week. It is planned to have each team
play at least two games a week. Threo
diamonds are available for use, two
on the drill fields north of Social
Science and the other on Nebraska
field. Some fast exhibitions of the dia
mond sport should bo given.
Coach Henry V. Schulte has almost
forgotten about his six pound bass
during his busy days at Chicago at
tending the conference of coaches and
directing Nebraska entres in. the na
tional meet.

OF HITTING SPREE
Signals From Irishman Aid Mack
Batters to Clout Pill,
O'Neill Says
By DAVIS J. WALSH
NKW YORK, June 13 Steve O'Neill
of the Cleveland Indians, one of tin
best catchers in baseball and an ob
servant gent as well, claims to have
discovered the secret of the Athletics'
astonishing form reversal. He dorsn t
blame it on any of the pitcher?, nor
docs he mention Hing Miller, Po'J
Young, Doe Johnson or Connie, the
elongated Mack. t
Panny Murphy, ex-outfielder alio
present coach of the outfit. ge's
Steve's ballot as the man who has
as much to do with Ring Miller's aoiae
runs as the Ring person himself.
"He stands out there on the thin
base coaching lines," quoth Steve,
"and tips off the hitter on every pitci.
Without fail he tips the fast one. tn
curve and the spitter, and all the
batter has to do is to set himself
and lot fly."
Old stuff, Steve. Danny Murphy, in
collaboration with Harry Davis, was
doing that ten years ago, when the
Athletics could muster a championship
ball club. Off and on both have con
tinued to do it since, but until rec-ntly
the Athletic hiters failed to profit ly
the system.
Davis and Murphy flashed thorn
what was coming right enough, out
that let the two sign-stealers out. The
couldn't walk down to the plat and
make the hitters hit.
In the old days the Athletics had
Eddie Collins, Frank Baker, Stuffy
Mclnnes, Eddie Murphy, Strunk, Old
ring. Schang, and other sincere hit
ters. All have since gone their re
spective ways, and It may have teen
noted thfit they never hit as well, else-
vhere as they did in Philadelphia.
Perhaps this depreciation was brough.
about by the advancing years of some
of the players, but undoubtedly they
missed the co operation of the two lip
steis. Harry Davis no longer patrols the
coachers' hex, picking signs our cf

individuals, hut Murphy Is still about

Yet. as pointed out previously, it

conditions may be. Murphy's system
merely tends to make an unsual hit

CORNHUSKER FOOTBALL
i MEN ARE PRACTICING
Old Sol may get the best of the corv
mon run of folks such as common
everyday editois, office men, and stu
dents -but he cannot down the spirit
of a group of Cornhusker footballmen,
aspirant s for the 1922 gridiron team.
.ho daily engage in a practice sesMOii
'neath the sorchinp heat of the sun.
For an hour or two each afternoon,
these Husker gridiron performers dis
regard the warnings of the "Sun Cod"
and work hard and heatedly in an ef
fort to prepare themselves so tiey
may be in the finest of shape when the
first call for football performers is Is
sued next fall.
The men are all attending the sum
mer school and are making use of their
spare moments each day by romping
about Nebraska field, pulling down
long punts and forward passes. Their
thief aim is to train themselves to
handle the ball cleverly without fumb
ling it.
Among the Cornhusker football as
pirants for 1922 who are working out
during the summer session are Cap-
