TOURNEY RESULTS
FOR SATURDAY
Sig Alph-D U Game Features
Saturday's Playing;
D U Loses.
FAST PLAYING IS
MARK OF EACH TEAM
Fast playing marked the fratern
ity basketball games Saturday. The
Sigma Alpha Epsilon-Delta Upsilon
game was the feature of the day's
playing and was hotly contested to
the end. The early lead gained by
the D. U. quintet was too much for
the Sig Alphs to overcome and the
game ended 10 to 8. Phi Delta Theta
lost to Phi Delta Chi; Sigma Phi Ep-
silon won over Beta Theta Pi; and
Zeta Beta Tau went down before the
Delta Chi team.
The Phi Delta Chi-Phi Delta Theta
game was filled with long shots. The
pharmacists made their lead safe by
a five-minute spurt at the first of the
second half and finished the half
ahead, score 7 to 2. The final count
was 18 to 9. Stuhr, Phi Delta Chi,
was high point man with 8 points
Lewellen refereed the game.
Altho both the Zeta Beta Tau and
the Delta Chi teams exhibited excel
lent defensive ability, neither seemed
to be able to start a scoring streak
The half ended 3 to 1 with the Delta
Chis ahead. The Delta Chis sprinted
at the opening of the second half
until they had a good lead and suc
ceeded in keeping it. The game
ended with the score 12 to 8. Lew
ellen also refereed this game.
Sig Alphs Determined.
The Sig Alphs and D Us staged the
fastest contest of the day. George
of the D U team started the scor
ing with a field goal. In spite of all
the Sig Alph team could do the D Us
rang up ten points in the first half
and the Sig Alphs only three. The
second half was marked by a Sig
Alph rally so determined that the
D Us were unable to score a point.
The D U lead was too big for the
Sig Alphs to overcome, however, and
the game ended 10 to 8. The referee
was Olds.
The Sigma Phi Epsilon-Beta Theta
Pi game opened as a fast and evenly
foueht contest. Both teams showed
good defensive all through the game
but the Sig Eps tightened in the sec-
ond half until the Beta team was
unable to score. The half ended 9
to 4 and the final score was 22 to 6
with the Sig Eps at the top both
times. Hecht of the Sig Ep team
was high point man with 11 points
to his credit.
The Sigma Chi and Delta Tau i)el
ta teams will meet Monday at 4 00,
followed by the Phi Kappa Psi-Alpha
Sigma Phi contest at 4:30. On Tues -
day, Lambda Chi Alpha meets Kappa
Sigma at 4:00 and Alpha Tau Omva
plays Phi Alpha Delta at 4:30.

of 2 minutes and 22 seconds over
Mooberry in the 143 pound class, and
in the 115 pound division Blore won

to 7. The other men representing
Nebraska at the Kansas meet are:
Kellog, 125. pounds; Uhlir, 135
pounds; Thomas, 158 pounds; Rob
ertson, 175 pounds; Highley, heavy
weight. Highly, who won the heavyweight
bout in the meet with Northwestern
last week, sprained his ankle sevcrel
in the match and for a time it was
thought that he would be unable to
make the trip to Kansas.
Kansas had a veteran squad this
year and the Huskers are expecting
a stiff opposition. In the meet with
the Jayhawkers last year Nebraska
returned with the long end of a SO

Friday Night Game.
Before 5,000 fans who fully ex
pected to see Nebraska lose by at
least 10 points, Coach Kline's pro
teges opened up Friday night with a
fine brand of basketball and beat
Creighton by the score of 25 to 21.
With close guarding, free passing
and accurate shooting, the. Scarlet
and Cream players soon tied the 3
point lead made by Creighton in the
first few minutes of play. After
that Nebraska kept in the lead by V)
or more points until the end of the
game.
At the very first it looked as thn
the dope was right Creighton would
swamp the Cornhuskers. Mahoney,
the much heralded Bluejay center,
dribbled down the floor and made the
first goal of the game. Before long
Tipton sent the ball sailing from the
center of the floor and it went in.
Volz made a free throw and tied the
score. Cozier, who was the star of
the game, made one, and another.
Tipton made two more long shots
count. Every one of Nebraska's
players scored in the first half.
When the whistle blew the score
was 15 to 11. Creighton came back
for the second half, determined to
win. But they weren't quite as de
termined as were Coach Kline's
stars. The second half was just the
first half played a little harder.
Creighton's men were playing a
wonderful game, but the Scarlet and
Cream warriors were playing as su
permen. Cozier made eight of Ne
braska's ten points in the second half.

Find Employment
for Thirty-six
The employment bureau of the
University Y. M. C. A. found work
for thirty-six students during he
month of January. There wt-r.
places for forty-seven and the places
that were not filled were the ons
calling for students to work part time
on commission basis.
Twenty-one of the thirty-six who
received positions now are regularly
employed for the remaining months
of the school year. Bennet S. Mar
tin, secretary of the bureau, reports
that fewer odd jobs were to be had
this month because of the weather
conditions. It is expected that a
great many such jobs will be open
within the next few weeks.
History is essential; without it,
