COACHIHG BERTH
Former Husker Tackle Added
To Gridiron Staff for
Next Season
PRO OFFERS DISMISSED
Ed Weir, Nebraska's all-Amerlean
tackle and captain of the Corn
huskers for the last two seasons,
has definitely stated his acceptance
of a position on the Nebraska coach
ing staff.
The Nebraska Athletic Poard has
been negotiating with Weir, relative
to his acceptance of a position on the
1926 coaching staff, for the past
few weeks.
The former grid-captain and per
haps the greatest figure in the realm
of Cornhusker history, will be as
signed the duty of coaching the can
didates for positions in the Nebraska
lin.
Weir ended the suspense of the
Board in relation to securing him, by
formally notifying Head Coach
Bearg that he would be on the job
when the Cornhusker candidates re
. port for practice next September.
There has been some doubt as to
the action of Weir in this matter due
to the fact that professional football
promoters have been camping on his
trail since last fall. Although the
"pro" promoters have made glaring
offers to the former Cornhusker cap
tain, none were accepted. The most
recent offer from professional foot
ball circles was received from Minne
apolis, where Red Grange, and his
manager, C. C. Pyle, heading their
league, proposed to locate a team in
the new National League.
This addition to the coaching staff
will make another place on the staff
for a Cornhusker athlete who has
proved his ability on the gridiron
and has placed his name on the honor
rolls of fcitball history.
It is Weir's intention to return to
the university in the fall, registering
for the five hours that he needs for
his degree. This work will be car
ried while he helps Bearg whip the
line in shape. The opportunity will
be presented to the former grid-star
to officiate in Valley conference
games on Saturday and it is the
present intention of Weir to take
advantage of these opportunities.
Weir has stated that his chief inter
est in football has to do strictly with
amateurs, not professionals. The
Cornhusker captain seems quite de
termined in not considering any pro
fessional offers.
IN THE VALLEY

"Zim' and "Zim"
The Nebraska State Journal of
Thursday evening carried a column
entitled, "What's It All About?"
written by John Bentley. In the ar
ticle the writer tells of the criticism
that has been offered the athletic
board of the University. He goes
so far as to say that, "even the
school daily is carping about the
board's decision to abolish baseb. 11
temporarily."
An poinion concerning the aholith
ment of baseball wm printed in this
column, a bar been like opinions
on many other items concerning; ath-
Iteics. The writers of this column
were not "carping" the athletic board
but were merely stating their own
opinions.
Mr. Bentley in his article seems to
believe that the school paper has no
right to express opinions on matters
pertaining to the university. As a
matter of fact we hold that it is our
privilege to do this. This column
and the school paper always tries to
cooperate with the athletic board and
other university officials in matters
pertaining to our welfare.
However, we are not merely "yes
men tor anything that occurs at
the university. We shall state our
opinions as we believe is right. The
Daily Nebraskan is the student paper
of the university, run by the students
and for their use in the matter of
expressing their opinions-
Spring football practice starts on
March 15 and Coach Bearg expects
a large number of men to turn out
for practice. This idea of spring
training for gridiron athletes started
several years ago and has grown in
popularity ever since.
The purpose of spring practice
is to get the men in shape for the
following fall games, but to enable
the men out for the team to find out
what style of play the coach uses.
It also gives the freshmen a good op
portunity to get into the swing of
things on the football field.
this year's squad are sophomores.
Come on students, let us have
your opinion on the baseball situation
One student has made his opinion
known on the question in the stu
dent opinion column in the Daily Ne
braskan is for your use. Pro or con,
we want your opinion on the ques
tion, whether Nebraska should have
baseball or not.
