OPENING TILT DEC. 19 Less Than Three Weeks Left Before Pittsburgh Game in Lincoln. Coach Charley Black and his basketball squad settled down to real work Monday night in their preparations for the coming sea won. George Koster, Steve Hokuf and McPherson were some of the new men to report to Black for their first workout last night and the first two mentioned are con sidered to be the strongest of the guard candidates. Hokuf played at guard position a large part of the time last year but did not wor kout with the squad Monday night. He Intends to rest, for a few days and let his legs build up again after the stren uous football season. Promise of Strength. The squad this year gives prom ise of being one of the strongest to represent Nebraska on the hard wood floor for several seasons. Fisher, Maclay, Davcy and Hokuf are the returning veterans and the men around whom Charley Black will mould hi3 team. All four of the returning veterans, have worked together for an entire year and will form a nucleus around which a strong team can be built. The basketeers have less than three weeks to get in shape for the opening game of the indoor season with Pittsburgh here Dec. 19. Immediately after this game the squad will leave for an inva sion of the western coast when they play the University of Washing ton In Seattle, Dec. 27, 29 and 30. Monday night Black confined most ot the workout to passing and engaged in no actual scrim mage. Offensive plays were ironed out and the men went through some dummy scrimmage. Later in the week the men will get their first taste of scrimmage and an attempt will probably be made to assemble workable lineup. BAD ililllE.

This memory is taking the form of a wholesale selection of "All" teams. Far be it from the humble writer of this column to attempt to select an "All" team of any type or description it isn't safe! But while we are on the subject, Rhea, Broadstone. Greenberg and Hokuf are receiving quite a bit of praise and many authorities are rating them on their teams. Ne braska's linemen have rather taken the spotlight away from the backfield this year and they con tinue to do so in the selection of Big Six teams. Buster Long and Young are receiving some mention but it is only on the second and third teams. VfITH the passing of football, W basketball has advanced to take its place In the center of the stage. Coach Charley Black has lost no time and each afternoon has his scantily clad basket tossers going through their paces in the coliseum. Nebraska's chance for a winning team this year are looking bright with Maclay, Hokuf, Davey and Fisher back to play. Fisher laid out of football this year, deciding to devote his entire attention to the hoop tossing game. An added inducement to the basketball men will be the trip to Seattle. Wash., during the Christ mas recess when the University of Washington will be encountered. Although practice has just started, this trip and the game with Pitts burgh here Deo. 19 ia caucing quite a flurry as there is less than three weeks to prepare for this first game. VIOT long ago a columnist was shot and killed in Chicago. Po lice, after a lengthy investigation, stated that he had been shot be cause he "knew too much." It is a mystery how any column ist could be shot for "knowing too much." The general criticism seems to be that the men writing these space fillers are blundering, blithering idiots and should all be killed. And the terrible thing about it all is that the people are always right. NTOW that football is all gone, ' there may be a little doubt as to the title of this column. We have decided that it would be much easier to merely move the bench over to the coliseum and keep it warm over there than it would be to construct a new cut to place at the top of this nonsense. We will not attempt to move the stadium in the background, of course, as it would be too much of I !

He stated that this call included freshmen as well as. varsity material. Pre-vacation track activities will end with a practice meet Dec, 19, Schulte announced, so that the track season will be well, under way following vaca tion. A meet between the mile men and the two milers will be held Wednesday of this week. Referees for (.reek Cane Came Wanted All men desiring to referee Interfraternity basketball games are requested to register with Rudolf Vogeler at the Inter mural office at once. GARDNER'S TEAM WINS UCD' a job and would hardly be worth the trouble. It will he much nicer to merely pretend that the stadium and the assembled multitudes are the people on the bleachers over at the coliseum. So, if you just use your imagina tion a little, it will not be necessary to change the name and we can all be happy. INTRAMURAL sports will go into full swing this week, starting Thuisday night when the first round of the basketball tournament will get under way. This is done, according to Rudy Vogeler, to get a number of the games out of the way before the Christmas recess, whatever that is. Class A, class B and professional fraternity leagues have been formed and the play will go on as rapidly as possible. Vi res!

By defeating Vic Scherzinger's Western Tigers in the final game of the season by n score of 7-0, Maurice "Mud" Gardner's coaching class team won the championship of the freshman football league. Gardner's team had a record of four victories, no defeats and two ties. The freshman squad is divided into lour teams after the regular frnsh vnisitv bus been chosen at the beginning of the year. These four teams play a rouna ruimi schedule of games to determine the rhnmninn. In this manner those boys who are not skilled enough to make the frosh varsity are given an opportunity to participate in gamca1. . Players who showed up excep tionally well on the championship team were Bailor, quarterback; Chase, fullback; Rowan and Green, guards; Colby, center; and Nelson, end. These boys were outstanding in every game and a great deal of the credit for the championship can go to them. Scherzinger's Western Tigers and Kahrney's agricultural college team tied for second place in the league with two victories, three de. feats and one tie. Coach Knight's agricultural college team number two placed fourth and last in the standings with one game won, three lost and two tied. The race was close throughout the entire season and all the play ers turned out well for the games. Although a few spectators at tended the games the teams showed plenty of fight and some excellent football was displayed during the season. All of the roaches of trie tpams Ik.vp had ex perience in athletics. Gardner is a former Nebraska track man and present holder of the Big'Six rec ord in the half mile. Scherzinger was a member of the varsity foot ball squad last year. William C. Gregg, former stu dent at the university, has given a group of etching to the art collec tion of the school of fine arts.

The Cyclone team possesses two other runners, Labcrtow and Klchelkraut, who run tno aisui. consistently under ten minutes; ' AMES In two-mile team rac ing, which has been popularized In the Big Six conference this rail, supplanting the former cross country runs, Captain Ray Put nam of Iowa State, has been the outstanding star. Captain Putnam, a protege of Bob Simpson, former Missouri track star and holder of numerous hurdling records, ran five races this fall to average 9:40.3 for each two mile race. Put nam's best time, 9:22.5, which he made on the Missouri track on which his mentor practiced his way to fame, has been bettered by only three college men. Betters Previous Time. Putnam's recent mark betters the best time made previously for the distance by a Big Six or Mis souri Valley runner. Rathbun, 1922, Iowa State , ran the distance In 9:27 In the Big Ten conference meet of that year. Putnam lowered his own eonfeience record of 9:30.1 in the two mile event which he made at the conference last year. It is not too much to believe in the face of these achievements that the Iowa State captain will be one American representative in the 1932 Olympics.
