Tifr. Mk Good Showing at Kansas
Mt Ut Week; Hurdles Prom
i.o Spectator! a Thrill
With the Kansas Aggie entry blank
received late Saturday afternoon, all
"tries were in for the annual Mis
MUri Valley track and field meet to
be held in the Nebraska Memorial
Stadium Friday and Saturday after
noons. Heading the list of Kaggie
,tars are Kimport, crack distance
man, and Carter, pole vaulter.
Hurdle fans rhould be treated to
one of the greatest exhibitions of
races in this region for a long time.
The time may not be quite as fast
,3 that made last year by Taylor,
the Grinncll shark, but competition
should be keener.
Nebraska fans got a little taste of
what to expect in the Drake meet
here last Wednesday, when Weir and
Simpson came down the lane should
er to shoulder in the highs and then
Weir and Penquite did the same
thing in the lows. It must be re
membered also that Simpson tripped
at the first part of the 220 hurdles
here and didn't compete in the race
to that those three can be counted
on for some fast stepping.
Hurdler Look Promising
Add to these three, Doornbos, the
fast stepping Kansas U. hurdler who
trimmed Weir in the lows; Witmer
of Iowa State, who showed to advan
tage in the Valley indoor meet, and
some real races are assured. Then
there is Fairchild of Kansas Aggies,
Potts and Fergason of Missouri, who
have been running them in time only
slightly slower.
The unexpectedly strong showing
of Missouri in their dual meet Sat-;
urday with Kansas cast a new shadow
over Cornhusker hopes. Nebraska
defeated Missouri handily in the dual
meet here but in practically every
event, last Saturday Missouri turned
in marks which make them loom as
far more dangerous than had been
anticipated from their early season
performances. Evidently, they are
just beginning to round into shape.
Hageman of Washington looms as
a likely winner in the high jump.
The high jump this year is going to
be largely a case of who is the poor
est rather than the case of who is the
best. Hageman has been the most
consistent performer this year. The
Drake jumpers have been turning In
good marks off and on and with three
fairly good men are likely to have
one jumper going right. Page and
Joe Weir have succeeded in placing
in dual meets this year despite their
failure to make sensational heights.
There is always the possibility that
they may have an extra good day and
oar up for a good place. At any
rate, the lack of good men in the high
jump should serve to stimulate com
petition. Broad Jump Good Event
Those who have watched the bat
tles between Stephens of Nebraska
and Lancaster of Missouri in the
broad jump this year are looking for
ward with interest to their last en
gagement of the year. Each has de
feated the other, Lancaster winning
e last time they met in the dual
meet here. But Stephens was doing
Poorer jumping than he has done any
time before or since at that meet so
1 feal battle can be expected this
week-end.
Lancaster is expected to have his
wnds full in the pole vault too.
'"'g's exhibition of over 18 feet at
maha Saturday shows that Lancas
ter is likely to be in for a long after-1
- But Rhodes, Potts of Okla

PLAY WILL END
ROUND-UP WEEK
University Players to Present
"Aren't We AH" As Fea
ture of Celebration
2 PRODUCTIONS MAY 29
"Aren't We All", an English com
edy by Frederick Lonsdale, will be
presented at the Temple theater May
29 by the University Players. The
play will be given twice, afternoon
and evening, and will be the final
feature of the Fifth Cornhusker
Round-Up. This comedy was pre
sented by the players during the year
and met with great success.
The nlav is a combination of
humorous and dramatic situations. A
wife, supposedly in Egypt, unexpect
edly returns to find her husband kiss
ing another woman. He uncovers a
similar affair of hers in Egypt.
However, they both love each other.
The situation is worked out in a clev
er and appealing way.
The characters are true to life,
good and bad. There is a mixture
of love, comedy, human weakness
and strength making the play one of
hte best of the season.
The cast consists of such favorites
of the University Players as Harold
Sumption. Ray Ramsay, Herbert
Yenne, Edward Taylor, Frances Mc
Chesney, Florence Surber, and Ruth
Jamison.

FINAL TRAINING
Husker Track Men Topping
Off Preparations for Val
ley Meet This Week
NUMERAL MEET TONIGHT
With the Missouri Valley meet
only a few days off, Ooach Schulte
started his track and field warriors
on the last lap of their preparation
for the big classic yesterday on the
stadium track. The last of the tri
color meets for those not on the regu
lar teams will be held tonight .
A few minor injuries were handl
capping some of the regulars last
night but "Doc" McLean was work
ing them all over and Coach Schulte
expects the whole squad to be in fine
shape for the meet.
Zimmerman was suffering from a
cold and Dailey's ankles were both
ering him slightly. "Big Ox" Krim
melmeyer has a bad knee but it is
not expected to bother him. Yester
day he was heaving the shot out in a
maner that bodes ill for opponents in
the Valley meet. Mandery was also
working nicely on the javelin. He
was hurling it over 150 feet consist
ently. He is looking forward to get
ting in a lucky throw in the Valley
meet with hopes of placing well up.
Distance Men Look Good
Johnson and Ross went through
some over distance work in prepjar
ation for the big grind; Johnson was
in good shape despite his fierce race
with Hahn at Omaha Saturday.
Coach Schulte is hoping for a good
turn-out for the last of the tri-color
meets for this year which will be run
off tonight. Winners of the "winged
foot" medals for their placings in
these meets can be determined after
the meet, although, in several events
the winners are practically assured
now. But in a number of others, the
leaders are so closely bunched that
tonight's results will decide placings
for the medals.
