    THE DAILY NE PR ASK A N
SOONERS POINT
FOR NEBRASKA
Oklahoma U. Must Turn Back
Two Strong Conference Fives
To Retain Leadership
Norman, Feb. 2 (Special) With
final examinations out of the way,
the Sooner basketball squad has re
sumed practice for the invasion of
Nebraska and Kansas AgrKe teams
this week-end in a series that will
leave leadership in the Missouri Val
ley with the survivor. Nebraska plays
here Friday afternoon at 4 o'clock
and Kansas Aggies here Saturday
night at 8 o'clock.
Oklahoma and Kansas Aggies now
are perched on the top of the confer
ence ladder, with three victories and
no defeats, while Nebraska boasts
of only a .500 percentage standing
with two defeats and two victories.
The Cornhuskers, however, are still
. rated as one of the strong teams of
the Valley and are expected to give
the Sooners a lot of trouble; and the
Sooner-Kansas Aggies will be one of
the outstanding games on this year's
conference schedule. Both gamfrs
will be broadcast over WNAD, Soon
er radio station, using 254 meter
wave length.
Karties Depend on Ber
The Kansas Amries viil center
their attack around "Lefty" Byers
their flashy forward who is one of
the hiirh scorers xf the conference
while Oklahoma's strength will lie in
it's five-man defense. Honea, one of
the Sooner's leading forwards for
the last three seasons, was lost by
graduation at the end of the first
semester, and Ceach McDermott will
depend more than ever on Drake to
replace him.
Pinkerton and LeCrone, Sooner
guards whose basket shooting turned
the tide against Iowa State on Janu
ary 22, are counted on for the extra
points to turn back the invaders.

Data Askad About Moving Camatary
The Dean of science and literature
at Stillwater, Oklahoma, recently re
ceived the inquiry, "How do you
movu a cemetery?" The de"n did not
know what to advise so the letter was
returned. ,
Do Gentlemen Prefer Blonilet?
This puirling question could well
be answered with the aid of a "dat
ing bureau". At the University of
Washinirton the idea of a dating
bureau was suinrested by some fear
less youths and it is now a question
of its "taking" on the campus.

The following interesting comment
on the new literary venture, "The
Prairie Scho-.icr", at the University,
appeared in the editorial column of
The (Omaha) World-Herald:
"With much of the same audacity
that their fathers and grandfathers
displayed in the first sodbusting west
of the Missouri river, students and
some of the professors of the'Uni
versity of Nebraska are sponsoring
a literary quarterly magarine, "The
Prairie Schooner. Their stake for
the venturers a mean three hundred
dollars, given by the university re
gents. With that, and the hope and
enthusiasm and genuine talent of the
editors and contributors, "The Prair
ie Schooner" must find a place on
news stands crowded with '.bawdy ,
"art" and "confessions" journals.
"An inspiring venture, thai I One
that promises much for the university
and for the state, in encouraging the
budding literary genius that must in
habit the plains and towns and cities
of Nebraska. For concerning its
aims the editors announce:
" 'The Prairie Schooner is an out
let for literary work in the University
of Nebraska and a medium for the
publication of the finest writing of
the prairie country.'
"That is a challenge to Nebraska.
A challenge to the state that boasts
of Willa Cather and Dorothy Can-

field and John Neihardt and Bess
Streeter Aldrich; of whom all except
the last named have gotten their in
spiration here, but have been forced
to go elsewhere for .their income.
And it is a test for the editors. Can
they secure material that deserves
publication, that has wit and charm
and interest, or will they find room
only for the often dull and ponder
ous themes of bright young students
in the English classes T
"The first number is promising.
The contents betray, perhaps, the
sense of heavy responsibility burden
ing the editorial board in the initial
venture, for there is missing from the
interesting pages a touch of humor
that exists in rich measure in Ne
braska life. Yet the contributors to
the first issue reveal a flair for writ
ing that commands respect, and pro
mises treasures for the future.
"If Nebraska has outgrown the
rough garments of Its pioneer days
and if life in the iate has reached
the cultural peak that we fondly hope
and believe it has, the.i "The Prairie
Schooner" is assured success. To
those who may aspire to a place
among its contributors, the wordr of
Bess Streeter Aldrich, in the first
number, should be a guiding beacon:
"Make use of native material; tell
simply and clearly the otory of the
land that is neither east nor west"
