THE DAILY NEBRASKA
HIGH JUMPERS
BADLY NEEDED
Schulte Sounds' Call for More
Men for High Jump Event.
No Good Prospects
TRYOUT MEET SATURDAY
A special call for high jumpers was
issued by Henry F. Schulte, head
track and field coach, from, the sta
dium track Tuesday afternoon.
Coach Schulte also announced a spec
ial numeral tryout for Saturday af
ternoon at 3 o'clock and Varsity try-
outs in the field events at the same
time.
Since "Hobb" Turned was gradu
ated in 1924, Nebraska hasn't had
a good high jumper. Turner was al
ways good for better than six feet
and was a close competitor of Poor
of Kansas who later placed in the
1924 Olympics. Last year Page and
Joe Weir were the best Nebraska
had. Both made 5 feet 10 inches at
some time during the season but
neither was consistent This year
Coach Schulte has in addition to
these two men, Fleming, Marrow,
and Gillilan. Any of them may de
velop but at present none of them
looks like a first rate high jump pros
pect. Jumper Batter Than Last Year
It wasn't so bad last year when no
body in the valley had a high jumper,
Andtyrson of Oklahloma being the
only man to clear six feet in the val
ley meet last year. But the 5 foot
10 &d 5 foot 11 inch jumpers of
last year showed by their perfor
mances in the valley indoor at Des
Moines last week that it is going to
take six foot jumpers this year. It
took 5' 11 3-4" to place in the val
ley indoor, two months before the
valley outdoor. In Elkins, Coach
Schulte has a good prospect for next
year's team, but with the California
trip and Missouri Valley outdoor sea
son looming up, Coach Schulte is
scanning the horizon for an eligible
six-foot jumper this year.
Stephen! Makes Good Time
Over-distance work and 220's were
the schedule Tuesday for the bulk of
the varsity squad. Captain Stephens
turned in the best time in the 220,
running in slightly over 22 seconds,
aided by a strong wind at his back.
Chadderdon, winner of fourth place
in the mile in the valley indoor, sur
prised the squad by running a 220
practically on a par with Tappan,
quarter-miler. Both had previously
run a mile for over-distance work.
Krause, Fleming, and Marrow
started working out over the low bar
riers at 100 yards, Krause setting
the best time although bothered by
the wind, he was not clipping the
hurdles as closely as usual.
SPRING WEATHER IS
AID TO GRID SQUAD
Candidates for Berth on 1927 Corn
husker Football Team Sent
Through Pace
The football field at Nebraska is
the scene of much activity these
balmy spring days as Coach Earnest
Bearg and his staff drill the 1927
Cornhuskers in their spring work
outs. Every evening for one hour and
thirty minutes, the Husker football
mentor puts his candidates through
fundamentals, plays, passing and
scrimmage. The spring football prac
tice will continue until April 2.
The entire session was spent last
night in offensive passing work and
defense on passes. Two games in the
last two years have been lost by
teams passing1 from the 20-yard line
for a touchdown. With this in mind,
Bearg is putting forth every effort
to have a team that can break up any
forward pass that the opposing eleven
is able to hurl. Bronson, Blue Howell,
and Witte were on the hurling end

New Rule Help Defense
The new rules that go into effect
with the opening of the 1927 football
season will help the defensive pass
ing work of teams this autumn. The
new rules are to the effect that the
goal posts will be set back ten yards
from the goal line. This also makes
the kick for point just ten yards far
ther than it was last season. Bearg
thinks this is a good rule and thinks
it will help teams fignting the for
ward pass game.
Another new rule that goes into
effect with the 1927 gridiron season
is the 30-second signal rhle. This
rule provides but 30 seconds for a
team to run off its signals, with but
15 seconds in the huddle. This is
quite a revision from last year, when
the teams spent over a minute in the
huddle and calling off signals. Bearg
was not working this new rule out
last night but intends to put all the
new laws into the game Saturday.
More Than 100 Men Out
There are over 100 men out for
the spring football practices and six
to seven teams in suit regularly
every night. Classes, drill and labor
atories interfere with the practice
sessions, keeping the full number
from reporting every night. Coach
Bearg will try out the new 1927 foot
ball rules in a game Saturday. The
exact lineup will be announced in
tomorrow's paper. The Husker coach
intends to have hi3 pig-skin luggers
play in three games befpre the spring
sessions terminate.
The freshmen are showing up this
spring better than ever before. Rich
ards, Sloan, McBride, and Farley are
showing' up well in the line and
backfield.

The Washington University swim
ming team took first in every event,
except fancy diving, and won an easy
victory in the Missouri Valley swim
ming meet at Ames Saturday after
noon. Ine score are a follows:
Washington, 60; Iowa State, 25;
Drake, 22; Crinnell, 9 and Kansas I.
Nebraska does not have a swimming
team nor a baseball team, both of
which should be put back into the
field; of sport at Nebraska.
Lazj spring winds blow across the
athletic fields at the Cornhusker
school but the sound of the old horse

Schulte's crackNebraska track squad
will hold the sport-light for the re
mainder of the, scholastic year, and
the thud of the spiked shoes' is now
being heard daily on the cinder track
in Memorial Stadium.
Three Missouri Valley champion
ships for 1926-27 now rest in the
Sooner state. The Oklahoma Aggies
took the Missouri Valley football title
last autumn, and this spring the
championship of conference wrestling
was captured by the Stillwater Ag-
gies. Saturday night at Des Moines
the Oklahoma Sooners took the Mis
souri Valley indoor track meet for
the third Missouri conference title
to be captured by the Oklahoma
state. In the indoor meet at Des
Moines, the Sooners barely nosed out
Nebraska, while the Missouri Valley
mat meet at Lawrence, Nebraska
finished fourth, behind Oklahoma Ag
gies, Iowa State and Oklahoma. Five
points were all the Huskers could
chalk up at the meet.
Oklahoma's Indian hurdler, Dun
ston, who tied for individual scoring
honors at the valley indoor and tied
the low hurdle record became eligible
for the meet just the day before they
left. The Indian promises to be one
of the sensations of the conference
this spring and will bear watching at
the valley outdoor meet here in May.

DENVER BOASTS
OF SPRINT MEN
Rocky Mountain Conf erei xe
Team Strong in Dashes,
Hurdles, and Weights
MEET NEBRASKA APRIL 2
Reports from Denver indicate that
the University of Denver, which, with
the Colorado Aggies, will meet the
Cornhuskers in a triangular, track
and field meet at Denver April 2,
will have the strongest team tp rep
resent Denver in years.
The Pioneers will be especially
strong in the sprints and hurdles,
should be well fortified in the pole
vault and weights, but will probably
be weak in the middle distances and
jumps.
Two men who have clipped 100
yards in 9.8 seconds is one of the
proud boasts of the Denverites. These
men are Haynes, a former East Den
ver high school star, who was the
sprint sensation of the Rocky Moun
tain conference last spring, and Al
bers of Holyoke, Colo., who set a new
state high school record of 9.8 sec
onds for the 100-yard dash at the
Colorado state high school meet last
year.
Mullen Is Hurdle Record Holder
In the hurdles, the Pioneers have
Mullen, holder of the Rocky Moun
tain conference low hurdle record,
and Weakley, who placed close to
Mullen last year in intercollegiate
competition. Captain Geyer is the
only outstanding quarter-miler at D.
U. at present but he has covered the
distance in better than 51 seconds in
the rare mountain air. Cutler, a
freshman, is heading the list of half
mile candidates. Freshmen are eligi
ble for competition in their second
semester in the Rocky Mountain con
ference which opens a big squad of
crack high school men for use at both
Denver and Colorado Aggies. The
Denver University squad is being
coached by Glen Preston, former
University of Nebraska athlete.
In the v.'ci'-hts, Denver fcss s big
fellow by the name of Brotzman who
has been making some fine early sea
son marks in both the shot put and
discus throw. Palmer, a former Colo
rado high school record-holder in the
discus throw, also looks good for the
Pioneer weight staff. J. Lyman Bing
ham, athletic manager at Denver Uni
versity, was recently quoted as say
ing that both Denver and Colorado
Aggies would present a group of ath
letes that should show their heels to
the Cornhuskers.

GRID PROSPECTS ARE
GOOD AT STILLWATER
Aspirants for Positions on Oklahoma
A. & M. 1927 Football Team
Report for Practice
Stillwater, Okla., March 15 (Spe
cial) Early spring gridiron prac
tice, at Oklahoma A. and M. college,
took on a serious aspect last week
when 23 aspirants to places on the
1927 football eleven reported to
coach Vernon "Puny" Wahl to re
ceive equipment.
Practice began immediately and
will be held every day except Satur
day and Sunday according to the pro
gram outlined by Wahl. Saturday
afternoon may be added later in the
spring when signal practice begins.
At that time Maulbetsch, head coach,
will give as much time to gridiron
training as 'can be spared from base
ball. For the first few weeks, how
ever, only football fundamentals and
conditioning drills will be meted out
to the candidates.
With the close of the wrestling
season additional players are expec
ted to join the spring work-outs as
many Aggie football men are now
busy in that field. The present turn
out is very promising, according to
Maulbetsch, as it includes lettermen
from the Oklahoma Aggie, Missouri
Valley championship team of 1926
and a number of stellar numeral
bearers from the yearling squad of
the same year.
