Twenty Years Ago THIRTY TURN ODT FOR RIFLE TEAM A new constitution had been forma lnted bv the Inter-Class Athletic Board to take care of all disputes in in the inter-class athletic meets. Amonsr the conditions laid down were these: 1. A man could serve on only one class team during the season. 2. "N" men were barred from the department in which they had re ceived their letters. 3. Everyone was considered a freshman who had less than thirty hours credit; sophomores between thirty and sixty-five; juniors between sixty-five and ninety-five; and sen iors with ninety-five to one hundred and twenty-five hours credit Fourteen members of the foot ball team received the "N . The men who played a full half game in any one of the three "Big Nine" games received the letters. EXCEPTIONALLY BRIGHT With the basketball season opening soon after Christmas vacation, Coach Kline is putting his men through i stiff pace of offensive playing ev ery day. Seven letter men are among the men out for the sport this sea son, and the prospects for the present season look exceptionally bright. Last vear the Huskers finished the sea son in third place, and the majority of the games lost by the Husker quin tet were lo;t with close scores. The. first team lineup as they have been sent against the second team in clude Captain Volz and Milo Tipton at guard; ex-captain Usher and Leo Black are hitting the pace in for ward position while Orr Goodson is playing at pivot position. This is no time to pick teams, however, and ev ery man out is getting a cnance 10 show his goods with the letter men. Wilmer Beerkle, who played for ward last season, is out for this po sition again, while Fred Extrom is taking turns with Goodson at center. Extrom is also a clever guard.

Anderson, '12, is teaching in the Polytechnic high school at San Francisco. His home is at San Car los. Mr. Anderson took a year of work at LeLland Stanford Universi ty, and has now taken work a year higher than his Master's degree. swing Into action, Ruf us Dewits and Harlan Wyant are the other two men lost by graduation. Mathias Volz and Milo Tipton are a pair of guards who will make it hard on any oppon ent. Besides the seven letter men back this year there are some freshmen of last season who are showing ability at the game. Coach Kline has a bet ter line on the material than was pos sible last season, and with the inter- fraternity basketball tournament at I the first of the season he will be able to pick new men of ability for his squad. Coach Kline has always de veloped great teams and the pros pects are bright for the Husker quin tet. Kline is generally considered the man who originated the now-famous five-man defense.
