Coach Charley Black and his
Cornhusker basketball squad be
gun serious preparations Wednes
day night for the conference
opener with Missouri Saturday.
The squad went through a long,
hard workout in attempt to rem
edy the defects noticeable in the
Brigham Young game the first of
the week.
Black rave his rerulars a rest
Tuesday night, working the re
serves, but threw tbe first five in
for a long workout last night.
Practically the entire evening
was spent in perfecting a defense.
Koster, Hokuf and Stipsky were
used In the guard positions with
Maclay at center and Davey,
Fisher and Conklin alternating at
the forwards.
Fresh Attack.
A long scrimmage was held with
Coach Bowne's freshmen five, with
the first year men taking the ball
and trying" to advance it through
the Nebraska defense. If the de
fense of last night is any criter
ion, Missouri will find the Corn
husker team a stiff one to score
against.
Missouri, conference champions
of 1930 will bring ten men to Lin
coln for the tilt Saturday. Only
one man is left out of the team of
last year. This man is Huhn. vet
eran center. Collings and Edmis
ton. lettermen, are ineligible fur
competition until the atart of the
second semester.
The game this Saturday, aside
from being important in tie con
ference standing, will show
whether or not the Cornhuskers
will be able to pull out of the los
ing streak which they have been
in for the last five games. Ne
braska, although not given much
chance for the championship this
year is sure to surprise several
teams before the season closes.

AN interesting tiling happened
during the course of the Ne- i
braska-Brighani Younp game the
first of the week. With sixteen
minute nf tho first half clayed.
the score was tied at Id apiece.
! This information comes' from
Cobe Tomson who telephones tho
wise cracks up to the score keep
ers, so should be authentic.
IS Nebraska a first half school?
1 Is it always going to happen
that the teams will go fine the
first half and then fir.sle out be
fore the completion of the game ? ,
This question seems to have
plenty of foundation and from all
results so far tbis season, the
Cornhusker athletic teams are
rapidly building up a reputation
for this weakness.
The game with Texas A. and M.
was an exception but in most of
the other games during the foot
ball season the Nebraska team
lost its scoring punch during the
final two periods.

these
be due to several things but the ! two queries, a reporter asked them
. . . ... i. t-...u ct Tulian agricultural
mnst logical conclusion is lack of
condition. A good team win out
play a team in poor condition dur
ing thP latter rart of a eame when
the pace begins to get too hot for
the latter.
During the second half Monday
night, the Brigham Young team
seemed to speed up ana piy
faster basketball but this was
caused largely by the fact that
Nebraska let down.
Th onlv team that can win its
games is the team that is in con
dition and can go oui on me nuur
and play forty minutes of good,
fast basketball. Then these losses
bv such a narrow margin
not occur. .
AU, of this accusation may be
entirely without foundation but
you "can't beat facts. Ana lacis
show that a good share ot me ie
ViraeVa losses this vear. both bas
ketball and other sports, have oc-
i . i r
curred during tne second nan.
Ap-ainst Pittsburgh. Nebraska
was in the lead with four minutes
to play. The Panthers nosed them
out by one point in uie ayicg sec
onds of the game.
Maybe it is hard luck to lose
games by such a close margin.
But Lady Luck can hardly be
blamed for these losses when the
Huskers "go to pieces" in the final
moments of each game. Some
thing is wrong.
YYITH the passing of the high
W school basketball touinan.-'nt
from Lincoln to Hastings. John
Bentley has taken the attitude
that the- tournament was awarded
in thP hifhest bidder and he seems
to have hit the nail square on the
head.
The old style of tournament as
it was held several years ago
with nine thousand kids in colored
sweaters running around the cam
puswas one of the best tnrngs
ever put over in uus sime.
High school players in the small
towns over the country worked all
year with this state tournament
as their goal, iney pianncu
three or four days tbey would get
to spend in Lincoln and saved their
nickels and climes for this big
event,
AND it cannot be denied that
nViii. thtw hir-h school ath
letes were around Nebraska tbey
were infused with the spirit to
pursue a little higher education.
Many of them who had never
thought of going to school before
changed their plans and went on
to a university or college at the
conclusion of their high school
career.
Maybe they will become Inter
ested in the 'same manner if the
tournament is he-id at Hastings or
any othe- town in the state. But
it is hardly likely that Hastings or
any other town in Nebraska can
offer the background for such an
event as could be offered here at
the University of Nebraska.

oi,h st .Tulian. agricultural
1.71 atuvu " ,
chemist at the Oklahoma A. and
M. college. Her reply to the
"what are vitamins?" question
was similar to the one given to the
inquiry. "What is electricity 7"
Even those who know the most
about electricitv do not know ex
actly what it is. Their answers
are given in terms of what it does.
Electricity is a force which
runs our fans, heats our toasters,
lights our lights and ignites the
gasoline vapor in the cylinders of
our automobiles. And vitamins
are certain substances which pro-
imote rrowth and prevent diseases
might in the human body.
i Like Soark In Car.
Chemists sometimes call vita
mins the ignition sparks of tie
body engine, because they are
small and weak by themselves but
set in motion much larger forces.
As to the importance of vita
mins, everyone who has ever felt
anrrv for "a ricketv babv know,
the answer, for rickets is due to
absence of one of the vitamins
from the baby's diet.
The letters used wnenever vua
mines are discussed do not "stand
for something" in the way that an
initial stands for a name. They
are merely handy labels. The first
vitamin discovered was labelled
"A." Then another was discov
ered and it was called "B" and so
on.
Varied Diet Necessity.
For persons in normal health the
labels of the various vitamins are
rplntivplv unimnortant. The only
necessity for health is enough of
eacn. ana tney may De secureu
eating a varied diet which includes
milk, eggs, meal, iresn irun, ana
vegetables.
The case of a ricketv baby, cr
someone ill with pellagra, is some
thing else again a something else
that calls lor tne attention oi
physician.
Six vitamins are- well estab
lished, and investigators believe
they have found two more. The
known vitamins are A. B, C D.
E and G. The old vitamin B did
not conform very well to this
scheme, however, for after it was
first discovered and labelled it was
found to be made up of at least
two factors, so it is now called
vitamin B complex.
"Vitamin A, the first to be dis
covered, is known as fat-soluble
A. or the anti-infective vitamin,"
Mrs. St. Julian says in listing six
from A to G. "Vitamin A is es
sential for growth, for well being
.. . - .
at au ages, ana lor succesw ai i
production." A deficient supply of
vitamin A leads to a weakening of j
the body tissue and increased
susceptibility to bacterial infec
tion, particularly of the mucous j
membranes. ;
Vitamin .A in the diet finds its
richest source in milk and dairy '
products, eggs, liver, and leaiy '
vegetables.
The vitamin B complex formerly
as known as water-soluble B. .
Since it has been shown to be
made up of at least two independ-
ent vitamins, one of the two por- !
tions is called Vitamin G. the other i
is still called vitamin B.
Rice Hullt Source.
The B poition of tbe vitamin E
complex prevents beriberi, a dis-
ease common in the Orient. It was ;
found that when tbe natives ate
unpolished brown rice they were
not subject to tbe disease, but that
when their diet was chiefly limited
to white rice they were quite likely
to develop ceriberi. Vitamin B is
found in the polishings of the rice,
and it is now given to beriberi
patients.
A lack of the vitimin G portion
of tne vUimin B complex is thought
to be at least one. of the causes of
pellagra. This disease is common
in localities where the diet consists
largelv of cereals. Sixteen cases
were reported in Oklahoma in one
week recently. Pellagra is char
acterized by symmetrical lesions of
the skin, soreness of the mouth,
and intestnial disturbances.
Yeast is the most potent source
of the vitamin B complex. Milk
and green vegetables are also good
sources.
"C" Lack Causes Scurvy.
Complete absence of vitamin C
from the diet of man results in
Thi riiaease is character
ized by soreness ana suirneso vi
the joints, soreness of the gums
with loosening of the teeth, and
frac-ilifv of the bones. It was for-
j - ...
merly prevalent among Datura, uu
aimnat universally appeared
among adults in times of famine or
on long sea voyages.
fin mriM oeiiciem dui dol tu
tirely lacking in vitamin C, Mrs.
St. Julian says, children become
irritable and lacking in stamina,
do not grow normally, and are less
resistant to' infectious diseases.
Shortage of Vitamin C Is thought
to be an important factor In the
prevalence of . tooth decay and
much of the so called rheumatism
in children and adults.
Fruits Best Source.
Especially good sources of Vita
min C are lemons, oranges, limes,
grapefruit, raw cabbage and tur
nips, and tomatoes raw, cooked or
canned.
The capacity of the body to
store Vitamin C ia very limited
and under certain conditions this
vitamin is easily destroyed. There
fore, Mrs. St. Julian points out, the
diet for all ages and particularly
for children should include an
abundance of foods containing
Vitamin C.
Vitamin D is a substance which
controls bone development, and its
absence from the diet Is the cause
of rickets in children. It also pre
vents decay of the teeth and is es
sential for growth.
Violet Rays Effect.
Thi vitamin is the onlv one
identified with a definite chemical
compound. The compound i"
known as ergosieroi, ana is present
In various food materials and in
the human skin. When ergosterol
ia auhferteri to ultra-violet rays it
becomes a powerful antirachitic
agent, that Is, a preventive of
rickets, irradiated ergosieroi is
now used for the prevention of
rirkrta and the favorable effect of
ultra-violet irradiation or exposure
to tne sun is oeuevea 10 De awe m
the formation of vitamin u from
the ergosterol in the skin.
Cod liver oil is the richest souice
of vitamin D. Liver and egg yolk
are probably the best dietary
sources of this vitamin. Milk and
dairy products contain it in small
but appreciable amounts.
Vitamin E, the antisterility vita
min which is essential for repro
duction, is present in vegetable
oils. The oil of wheat embryo is
one of the richest sources, and let
tuce is another good source. Milk
and butter fat contain it in small
amounts.
Nearer to World Peace.
Worcester Telegram: In time of
peace, prepare against war: bucn
is the modern slogan oi inose wno.
like Arthur Henderson, British for
eign secretary, seek while yet
there is time to organize the na
tions of the earth in defense of
civilization. Henderson's message
to tbe world by radio, moreover,
places a high value on the efforts
put forth during this year toward
the organization of peace. He lists
succinctly, the important steps
takn and looks for definite action
within a year in tbe way of world
rrnrri nn disarmament.
rvmrtition in armament or-
tween this country, and Great Bri
tain is ended, as Henderson be
lieves, for all time. With Japan the
United States has a firm under
standing that will hold to a safe
ratio. The three greatest maritime
powers will build no more capita!
ships. The Balkan conference in
October eased tension at the point
of origin of many bitter conflicts.
The eleventh assembly of the
League of Nations brought nearer
the long desired world conference
for restriction of warlike prepara
tions that is counted on to prepare
a treaty on general disarmament
The round table conference at Lon
don has exceeded expectations,
thus far, in seeking a way of sta
bilizing peace In India. All these
accomplishments and undertakings
trend toward a spirit of peace.
But more than that is necessary
if peacetime preparation against
war is to be thoro and effective. In
deed the best insurance of peace
is to be found in indirect rather
than direct jmeasures. We must
look beneath the surface signs of
danger. Below all is the menace
of economic conflict.
If our experience of the year
will but open our eyes to this
menace and teach us to act ac
cordingly, then the greatest single
threat to world peace over
nationalistic trade rivalry will be
successfully met.
