HUSXERS TAKE DOUBLES
Harold Sherman Trounces
Thomas; Mahood Loses
To C. Davis.
The Husker tennis team dropped
a 4-2 decision to the invading Uni
versity of Oklahoma racqueteers
Monday afternoon on the coliseum
indoor courts. It was the initial
Big Sir test for the Cornhuskers.
Nebraska copped two matches
when Harold Sherman trounced
Thomas of Oklahoma 6-3, 6-3 in
a singles encounter, while the dou
bles team of Cameron and Sher
man came through in the final
match of the afternoon to outclass
the Sooner combination of Bennett-Thomas
for a 6-3, 6-3 victory.
Visitors Are Strong.
The Oklahomans presented a
powerful crew of racquet wielders
in sweeping three of the four sin
gles matches and breaking even in
the doubles. Charley Davis. Okla
homa star, trimmed Mahood, No. 1
man for Nebraska, in a battle
which was nip and tuck all the
way.. However, Davis was far too
effective with his sizzling drives
and placements for Mahood, the
match, acore favoring Davis 6-0,
6-3.
Milo Cameron. Nebtaska, put up
a great fight against Bennett,
Sooner captain, but was forced to
accept the short end of a 6-4, 6-4
tally. Mario lost to Hastings, Okla
homa, 6-1, 6-1 in another singles
match. Harold Sherman displayed
too much tennis for Thomas, Okla
homa and his 6-3, 6-3 triumph was
well earned.
Huskerc Take Doubles.
Sherman-Cameron. No. 1 dou
bles Iraui for tLe Muskets played
a fine game to put down Bennet
Thomas, while Mario-Mahood
.found the going too tough against
Davis-Hastings, losing by a 6-1,
6-0 count.
Both teams displayed plenty of
tennis, with Oklahoma having the

'I HE LINCOLN Star reveals a
telegraph operator who con
veyed Rhea's wire to Coach
Schulte from the Drake relays
with the information that Hugh
tossed the javelin 136S 1-2. An
omitted space between the 6 and
8 makes some difference here. It
is a bit disconcrting. this non
chalance with which Lincoln Ne
braskans hear of Rhea's perform
ances. Not so out in the state.
There, if you have a speaking
acquaintance with Hugh you are
a hero. It's Rhea's own fault that
he is accepted casually now, how
ever. The consistency with which
he threatens the fifty foot mark
and breaks records has almost be
come routine.
To be news much longer. Hugh,
you'll have to let somebody beat
you; or fail to break some record
or other.
THEY REALLY grow tennis
1 players in this Oklahoma place.
Charles Davis wearing Sooner
colors had no trouble disposing of
Paul Mahood, 6-0. 6-3, yesterday.
And Mahood is Nebraska's best,
which is pretty good.
Davis looks like ths triplet of
the two Oklahomans who captured
both the doubles and singles in the
Big Six meet here last spring.
Tall, slender, dark haired, he
wields a racquet with no super
fulous motions. It ought to be a
fast battle when Davis meets
"Junior" Coen in Lawrence Wed
nesday. Davis is a sophomore.
AT "NO superflous motion"
phrase is one of the big secrets
of success in sports according to
Know-It-All Oscar, the bounce
bounce boy. Not many people can
drive 250 yards while doing the
Charleston. And St. Vitus dancers
aren't usually so good at billiards.
At that, we wouldn't be especial
ly surprised if Hugh Rhea had
thrown the javelin one thousand
five hundred sixty eight and one
half feet.
That will be all, Orville.

the pilot thruout the landing pro
cess information as to his where
abouts in all three dimensions. A
runway localising beacon, slimlai
to those now used for navigating
airways, gives the pilot his lateral
position. His longitudinal position
( approach i is given by one or
more marker beacons which the
pilot hears as he passes over fixed
points adjacent to the landing
field. Height above the ground is
given continuously during landing
by a special type radio beam.
This landing equipment and a
transmitting and receiving set for
simultaneous reception of radio
telephony and visual type radio
beacon signals were mentioned by
Mr. Burgess.
Important advances are being
made. Doctor Burgess said, in
inter-relations among national
physical laboratories and pressure
is being brought to bear to bring
about greater uniformity. Some
international standards now under
consideration relate to the units
of heat, sugar, standards, radio
frequency standards, and standards
of measurement of X-ray dosage.
For this last, the Bureau is just
finishing work on an improved
form of X-ray dosage meter which
is more accurate, reproducible and
transportable, and much smaller in
bulk than any heretofore produced.
In connection with radio fre
quencies, the Bureau is now able
to keep its primary frequency
standards exact to one part in five
million an accuracy undreamed
of five years ago.
