The strong Kansas Jayhawkers will ;
make a irood opponent for the Hus-j
kers when they dedicate their new
Field House February 6. It will not j
only make an interesting: game but ,
will pive the Nebraska fans a real
chance to see how their team is go-,
ing to stack up in the final race to !
the Valley flag. If the Kansas team '
can be stopped and the Huskers !
will have every moral support possi-;
Me with their new court then the '
Scarlet and Cream five will be pretty '
tough to stop on the road to a cham-
pionship, or at least a high ranking. I
An arroy of former high school
stars are playing with the Nebraska
freshman basketball squad this year.
The new material looks better this
year than for several previous years

This New Field House of ours is ;
going to give the other schools in the
Valley something to shoot at in the
way of providing a real basketball ,
floor. None of the other Valley
schools have anything to compare j
with this in the way of floor space
of seating capacity and it should add
to the interest of the sport to be
able to accommodate the crowds at
the cage games.

Varsity Mat Squad Which

"When the cat's away, the mice
will play," seems to be a true saying
if the Oklahoma basketball team is ;
to be taken as an example. In the !
latter's recent game with the Drake '
Rullilogs, McBride, the veteran '
Sooner scoring ace, was covered very '
closely every time he received the !
ball but this was offset by the clever J
scoring ability of a sophomore guard,
Roy LeCrone, who flipped in five !
baskets from the field and added a
free throw for good measure.
The preliminaries for the first val
ley match in the wrestling squad
were held yesterday, with the view
of choosing the team to meet the Mis
souri mat men. In the selection of
the team the material recently dis
covered in the inter-fraternity meet
will be able to show its ability.
The drawings for the first match
es resulted in Mallettc, Deford and
Buck drawing byes. In the 115
pound class Blore drew a bye. Web
er threw Blackstone (7.15) and wres
tles Mallette in the semi-finals. In
the match between Buck and Deford,
Buck won the first match by advan
tage, however, in an extra period
Buck won the match by default
In running- off the 115 pound
class Jones won from Hcrron by time
advantage, and meets Blore in the
semi-finals. One of the best bouts
of the preliminaries was in the 125
pound class in which Back met De
ford. Buck came out for the inter
fraternity meet last year and distin
guished himself by going through
without a defeat.

Coffee seemed to have no material '

It was used throughout the test by
four of the eight subjects, but they
appeared to fare no better than the
others in keeping awake. However, '
