SCHULTE WANTS
450 TRACK MEN
Lota of Many Lettermen Gives
New Men Unusual Oppor
tunity for Places
Nebraska's 1927 track season got
under way Monday evening under
neath the stadium with about 100
men out Coach Henry F. Schulte
issued the first call for track can
didates yesterday also with a mimeo
graphed letter.
The loss of Locke, Hein, Weir,
Kriemmelmeyer, Lewis, Ross, Searles
Zimmerman, Rhodes, Roberts, Law-
son and others cut a heavy gap in
the ranks of the track letter-men.
Trospects are not as dull as they
might be with the loss of such a col
lection of stars but they are not as
bright as at the same time a year
ago.
Will Work Indoor
A good battalion of letter-men is
. left but there is room for a lot of
new blood. Within the week Coach
Schulte hopes to see about 450 men
out for track. Work will be carried
on indoors, underneath the stadium
until warm weather breaks. The
track has been graded and oiled and
is all ready for the work facing Ne
braska's field and cinder candidates
if another valley championship is to
be brought to Nebraska.
Coach Schulte has an able squad
of former varsity stars to assist him
in the coaching. "Choppy" Rhodes,
hurdler, vaulter, and broad jumper
from last year's varsity squad will
assist in general training of men in
the jumps, vault, shot, hurdles, and
sprints. Rhodes was winner of the
all-round championship at the Illinois
Indoor Relays last winter.
Former Stars Assist
Jimmy Lewis, captain of the cross
country team last year and assistant
cross-country coach during the past
season, will work with the distance
and middle distance men. Locke,
Hein, Zimmerman and Kriemmel
meyer will also be on hand to help
with the coaching. Older varsity
men will also help coach the candi
dates as they have for several years
under the Schulte system.
Coach Schulte is anxious for all
men interested in track to check out
their suits immediately. He hopes
to see fifty men earn numerals be
for. the first of February. If this
can be done, he says that Nebraska
would not need to worry about the
rest of the season.
STIFF PRACTICE
DUE FOR CAGERS
Black Use Several Combina
tions In Preparation for
Kaggie Tilt Friday
Using many substitutions in
lontrthv scrimmaee. Coach Black
started the Husker basketball squad
yesterday afternoon on a week of
heavy preparation for the opening
game n the home court next Friday
evening against the Kansas Aggies.
The various combinations used dur
ing the practice indicate that a dif
ferent lineup than that started
against the Hillyard team may form
the opposition in the coming tussle.
The scrimmage started with Cap
tain Smaha and Olson at forwards,
Elliot at center, and Gerelick and
Andreson at guards holding the var
sity position; while Klcpsor and
Brown, Page, Holm and Krahl form
ed the opposition. The practice was
evenly contested, but the entire
squad showed a sluggishness that
does not speak well for the Friday
night game. This, however, may be(
merely a hangover or vacation lazi
ness. Many Men Used
Several substitutions were made
and men were tried on both the com
binations. Othmer went in for Ol
son and Brown and Holm were shift
ed to the varsity. Marrow, Lindell
and Lawson were substituted on the
opposing team.
The coliseum has been made ready
for the Friday night game. Goal
towers have been erected and prac
tice is being held on a court placed
the length of the floor. Seven thou
sand side-line seats have been pro
vided for the opener by placing
bleachers on the sides of the court.
Students holding season tickets will
have their reserved seats in this sec
tion. Those who did not purchase
books during the football season may
purchase a season ticket including
eight basketball games, three wrest
ling bouts, and track meets for the
reduced price of $5. The single ad
mission price will be $1 per game.
Hillyar4s Win 36 to 20
While the squad of twelve men
taken to St. Joe showed considerable
development, Coach Black was not
satisfied (with the progress made.
The Nebraska squad was defeated
by a 36 to 20 count in their practice
game with the Hillyard team on
Thursday evening, December 30.
The Husker defense was the out
standing part of their exhibition,
but the national champions, featur
ing DeBernardi, displayed an offense
that swept the Nebraska players off
their feet early in the struggle.
COACHES ISSUE CALL
TO FRESHMAN CAGERS
Dutch Bible 254 Years Old is Present
To South Dakota University Museum
Black and Bears Urge All First Year
Men to Report for Practice.
Will Scrimmage Varsity
With the return of students from
Christmas vacation, freshman basket
ball practice has started in earnest.
Coach E. E. Bearg, in charge of the
freshmen issues a call for everyone
who desires to make the freshman
team and the Varsity next year to
report to practice at 4 o'clock at
least three times a week and every
night if possible.
Vermillion, S. D., Jan. 3. A
Dutch Bible, published 224 year
ago, has been recently received by
the museum at the University of
South Dakota from a private owner
in Utica. The Bible, which is well
preserved, is a valuable addition to
the museum's collection of rare edi
tions, according to W. H. Over, curator.
The book is bound in rich dark
leather and stiffened with substan
tial slabs of wood. The corners are
trimmed with ornate brass plates
riveted through the leather and into
the wood. Companion trimmings are
two heavy brass clamps that hold
the book closed when not in use.
Measuring 18 inches long by 12
inches wide, the book rcscjnbles a
pulpit Bible. Besides giving the com
plete Holy Scriptures, the book con
tains much encyclopedic information
Thirty-four pages are given over to
a discourse on geography and a map
of the world as it was known in 1702
is given. The map is fairly accurate,
although many of the coast lines are
indefinitely outlined. An interesting
feature is the depiction of the oceans
which are profusely decorated with
ships, Jonah's adventure with the
whale and other characteristic pic
tures. There is a diagram showing the
sun and moon revolving around the
earth and another on the same page
showing the moon and earth revolv
ing around the sun. I

mentals for the system coached, will
succeed much better. The basketball
essentials are taught to the freshman
squad and the Varsity coach goes on
from there, so of course he can't
bother much with players who can't
keep up with the rest of them. Men
practicing their first year can break
any bad habits in their playing, that
they might have acquired in high
school and build up their basketball
'We have about forty or fifty who 'muscles. Then, too, there is one hour

freshman practice," he stated, "but
that isn't enough. Men who do not
report for freshman basketball and
then go out for Varsity the next
year, find themselves handicapped.
Look at the Varsity squad and see
how many of them were out for
freshman practice nearly every

Varsity Coach Appeals to Freshmen
Charlie Black, Varsity basketball
coach also urged the freshmen to
turn out. He said, "We want every
body possible. They will be better
next year They will learn the fun
damentals and fit right in with the
play. The work will go right ahead
and it will be easy for both the new
and old men. Freshman practice has
advantages for the new men, as we
get a good chance to look them over.
When they scrimmage with the Var
sity, they are in good competition
and we can get a real line on their
abilities."
