KANSAS TRACK PROSPECTS FAIR K. U. Tm Looki Strong in Dashee But Sorely Need Weight Men LAWRENCE, Kan., Dec. 12. A track team fairly strong in the sprints and the middlo distances, but almost devoid of weight men will represent the University of Kan sas this winter and spring in four indoor and six outdoor track meets. Nino letter men from last year, and two or three from last year's squad, who did not make their let ters, form the basis for the squad. First practice of the full team began this week, in preparation for the first meet of the season, with Kansas City Athletic Club, at Kan sas City, February 6. The rest of the indoor schedule includes the Missouri-Kansas dual meet, also at Kansas City, February 18; the Illi nois relays at Ames, March 12 and 13. The outdoor schedule includes: Texas Relays, March' 26; Kansas Re lays, April 17; Drake Relays, April 24; Kansas-K. S. A. C.-Nebraska tri anguar meet at Manhattan, May 7; Missouri-Kansas at Columbia, May 15, and the Missouri Valley meet at Lincoln, May 21-22. For the sprints there will be Cap tain Rooney. Tin Luke Wongwai, and W. C. Powers. For the quarter mile, Stanley Engle and Walter Mc Adow. In the half mile, contenders will be Walter Shannon and Wilbur Lewis. Other "K" men available will be Darrel Phillips in the pole vault and Phillip Ferguson in the high jump. Men on the last year's team who will be on the track this year, are Charles Doornbos, a hurdler, and Don Isett of Cedarville, a broad jumper. The only weight men in sight are C.G. Willis, who handles the shot, and L. L. Grady, who throws the discus and is good also in the dash es. New distance men will have to be developed to balance the team. Peter Springer and Byron Sarvis are trying out. Wesley Crames of St Joseph, Mo., is one of the possibilities for the javelin. Contenders for places in the .shorter distances will include Ben Wood and W. R. Cooper in the quar ter. Clifford Peters has been doing around twenty-two feet in the broad jump. T II E DAILY NEBR ASK AN IN THE VALLEY . . .hy . . . "Zim" and "Zim" Missouri Vulley conference cham pions, the Missouri track team, will meet the Husker cinder men on the Memorial stadium track May 1, says the Columbian Missourian. Schulte believes in picking the hard ones, and the strange thing, is the fact that his team usually wins. Since his first year at Nebraska the Husker tracksters hav enever lost a Valley dual meet. The Oklahoma D ly reports the accptance of the Sooner challenge to a chess match between Nebraska and Oklahoma. The match will be a correspondence al'fair with Lester Sharp and Antonio de la Torre composing the Sooner team. The Husker team has not been an nounced as yet, and it is rumored that there is a question of the eli gibility of one of the members who has played professionally. The Valley track, for the indoor season, opens with the annual K. C. A. C. invitation meet held in Kan sas Citv. The meet, which takes place February 5, is an individual comDetition event. No score by by schools is made, and medals are awarded the winners in their res pective events. At the official ground-breaking of the Missouri stadium, President Stratton D. Brooks, and athletic di rector C. L. Brewer each turned ud a snade full of the virgin soil. The stadium when completed is to hold 90.000 people, the first section which will be completed in the' fall will seat 25,000. Coach Karl Schlademan of Kansas in his farewell season as track coach at that school, is making the preparations ifor the sprin gtrack season. Forty men are out for the sport now, nine of them being letter men. Of these, four are sprinters, and three are middle distance men. This points toward a weakness of the Jayhawkers in the field events, this season. With the announcement of the Michican football schedule for 1926 comes an innovation in football schedule making. Minnesota and Michigan have been football rivals from the first, with the winners each season, returning to the other or keeping as the case may be a Brown Jug, which rcprestenis a tradition between the two northern neigh bors. In 1926, however, the Brown Jug will appear twice, as two games, a home and home series six weeks apart, will be played by the two schools. Advance notice of other cinder track coaches in the Valley devot ing some time to the cinder sport so early in the season finds Nebraska just at the point of letting up on the fall schedule. However, the guiding hand of the Husker cinder men has been busy with office pre parations, as his men mark ,tme until after the holiday vacation. The Tiger and the Jayhawk have their annual indoor track classic on Febraury 8 at Convention Hall in Kansas City. This is one of the big meets and excites a great deal of interest from the alumni W the two institutions in and around the city. In thinking of the Illinois relays February 27. tihe Nebraska coach has been considering the possibili ties of winning combinations, for the 4-mile and 2-mile relays. Material from the cross country squad this fall in tapering down from the past harrier season, have been running the mile and the half-mile in good form. Good enough to excite com ment on the part of "Indian" Schulte at any rate. University of Missouri is taking the honors in the Valley for sched uling intersectional games for the 1926 football season. The Tiger schedule calls for (fames with West Virginia, Tulane, and Southern Methodist University. Nebraska will play one intersec tional game with the University of Washington at Seattle and is en. deavoring to book another attractive game with one of the larger uni versities of the country. Drake and Iowa State are booked to play the University of Chicago in basketball the coming season. Valley basketball teams are no long er looked upon as set ups ana are booked by the larger Bchools as first class attractions. It ia suireested that an all-oppon ent football team be picked and pub lished in this column. This team is not official and is made up of men that played outstanding games against Nebraska during the past season. Many good players have been left off of this team because they showed 'nothing spectacular against the Cornhuskcrs. Grange of Illinois is an example. The team selected is made up of men that played spectacular football against the Huskers. The following have been selected: Ends: Sloan, Drake; and Kassel, Illinois. . Tackles: Lindemeyer, Missouri; and Lattin, Kansas. Guards: Magee, Kansas Aggies; and Brockman, Oklahoma. Center: Wallace, Oklahoma. Quarterback: Edwards, Notre Halfbacks: Wilson, captain, Wasln ington; and Whitoman, Missouri. Fullback: Tesreau, Washington. C A JJttAltAt Sjogren nuuitooi-o , . Kansas Engineers Professor C. A.
