Four Horseshoe Matches Are
On Today's Schedule

out of the Husker moleskin warriors.
Coach Bearjj expects to put his 1928
candidates through an intensive
spring workout if the weather pre
vails during the 15 days of practice.
CONTESTS WILL SOON END
Four horseshoe games for today
were posted yesterday by James
Lewis, director of intramural ath
letics. The games will be played in
the afternoon, no evening games be
insr possible this week because of
the Greater Lincoln Exposition in
the Coliseum this week.
The games scheduled are: Phi Sig
ma Kappa vs Sigma Chi, 4 o clock on
Court 1: Pi Kappa Alpha vs Beta
Theta Pi, 5 o'clock, Court 1; Sigma
Alpha Mu vs Phi Delta Theta, 4
o'clock, Court 2; Sigma Phi Epsilon
vs Delta Sigma Lambda, 5 o'clock,
Court 2.
Final Results Not Ready Yet
The final results of the free throw
ing contest cannot be anonunced un
til Sigma Phi Epsilon comple its
allotment of shots. Delta Sigma Phi
is the winner of second place in the
contest, instead of Pi Kappa Alpha,
as was announced last week. Kappa
Sigma has first place cinched, but
Sigma Phi Epsilon has a chance to
place fourth in the running.

REDS TAKE WIN
IN COLOR MEET
The curtain ha dropped on the
1928 cage season and at we (can the
result of the hectic Oklahoma cam
paign we find that Nebraska finished
in a ti for sixth place with Drake.
Seven game won and eleven lost was
the record hung up by the 1928 1
Scarlet and Cream court squad.
The last Missouri Valley basketball
season ended as follows:

Oklahoma 18 0 1.000

And once again the laurels go to
Oklahoma University. The Missouri
Valley indoor track meet at Des
Moines was won by the Sooner track-
sters with Missouri Second, Kansas
third and Nebraska fourth. And the
Missouri Valley wrestling meet last
week at Columbia went to the Okla
homa Aggies. That the trophies are
all going Sooner way is not to be
questioned any more. Oklahoma has
developed in the last few years to
be the outstanding athletic school in
tourneys as soon as possible. Results
in both will be compiled soon to give
the fraternities some idea as to their
standing.
Next year Nebraska, meets the
Sooners at Norman in football. It
will be the first meeting between the
two elevens for many years and it
remains to be seen if Oklahoma is
going to best Nebraska in everything
or if the Huskers will remain su
preme in the football sport.
It looks as if another year is going
to slip by and someone else besides
Nebraska will take the Missouri Val
ley outdoor track meet. With a
fourth place rating in the indoor
meet last week the Husker tracksters
will have to hurry to come out of
that position.

Senior Scarlet Team Triumphs
Second Time in Series
Of Track Events
The Senior Reds hung up their
second consecutive tri-color victory
scoring 108 1-2 points in the meet
held Monday afternoon under the
east stadium. Monday's meet was
the second of a tri-color series of
four and the Red's victory places
them securely in first place to date.
The Blue team with 60 1-2 points,
and the Black team with 59 finished
second and third.
The Junior Blues also repeated
their work in last week's meet and
came through with 68 points and
first place. The Red team scored
42 for second place, and the Blacks
38 for third. The attendance at the
meet was poor and some of the main
point-scorers for the various teams
failed to make an appearance.
Mays Makes Fast Time
Mays, Junior Black, ran the quarter-mile
run in faster time than the
Senior Red winner stepping the dis
tance in 54.4 seconds. The marks
made in Monday's meet did not come
up to the usual tri-color standard but
the lack of competitors probably ac-j
counts for that fact. Kagains,
Sloan, Tomson, Bailey, and Oehlrich
were on hand to hold up the record
of their respective teams as usual.

War Losses Due to
Lack of Knowledge
Fort Collins, Colo., March 12. A
large percentage of our losses in
France were due to ignorance of the
science of war on the part of our
junior officers, according to Major
John P. Lucas, professor of military
science and tactics, who broadcast
over station KOA, on the agricultural
college program recently.
He talked on the purpose of the
reserve officers training corps
which has been established in many
colleges throughout the country to
train students as army officers in
case an emergency arises. Young
men who have the benefits of mili
tary training, he ei-ained, find it

Coach Workman Eliminates Vanity
Men from Spring Football
Practice Session
Ames, Iowa, March 12. (Special)
No varsity football men will be
eligible for spring football practice
at Iowa State, is the announcement
of Head Coach Noel Workman. The
reason for Coach Workman's move
is to have the entire varsity squad
next fall on a par as far as a knowl
edge of the game is concerned. The
Iowa State mentor also believes that
varsitv men on the spring squad too
often discourage the less experienced
candidates.
Presidential Election
Stirs Interest Among
American Universities
Oberiin, Ohio. (IP The accusa
tion that college students are com
pletely oblivious to affairs outside
the ivied walls of learning may hold
most of the time, but onee in four
years at least there comes a renewal
of interest in academic circles in af
fairs national.
For the quadrennial presidential
election stir is one which invades al
most every college and university
campus in the country.
Already this year straw votes on
presidential candidates have been
held at,Yale and at Oregon Hoover
winning by big majorities in each
case and many more such collegiate
presidential straw votes are being
planned.
But of still more Interest, because
it affects the activities of the stu
dents more, the mock political con
vention, examples of which are held
in many colleges and universities
every four years just before the reg
ular political national conventions.
Among those planning such events
for this year are Ohio State, Western
Reserve, Wisconsin, Ohio Wesleyan,
and Oberiin.
Oberiin claims the distinction of
originating the idea. It was back in
1864 that the first Oberiin Mock Re
publican National Convention was
held. Lincoln was the Oberiin nom
inee, and since that time at nine of
the fifteen such conventions held
here the same candidate as was later
selected by the Republicans, was
namd by the Oberiin students.
Oberlin's convention always has
been Republican in nature. Other
schools hold Democratic conventions
wholly, or alternate the two every
four years. Some have a combined
Repubican and Democratic conven
tion at which delegates of both par
ties are eligible for election.
In the 1924 conventions Coolidge,
Borah, and LaFollette were the most
popular Republican nominees in col
legiate circles, while Al Smith was
almost the sole Democrat named by
undergraduates. At Western Re
serve university, LaFollette was giv
en the presidential nomination, with
Al Smith as the vice-presidential
running mate.
