the twenty-third annual Drake re
lays. Preliminary heats are on tho
program In all individual events
&nd In the 440,. 880 and mile re

yard dash, with Ralph Metcalfe.
sophomore negro speedster from
Marquette, Peyton, Glass, Okla
noma Aggie star who beat Eddie
Tolan at Drake last year: Jack
Burnett, University of Mississippi
star and junior A. A. U. cham
plon; Lambertus of Nebraska,
Klaner of Kansas, Thompton and
Mass of Minnesota all vicing for
supremacy.
Sallng In Hurdles.
If the weather man gives the
meet a break, Drake officials look
for several records to tumble, with
keen competition on hand in each
event. Capt. George Saling, Uni
versity of Iowa hurdler, is likely
to smash the Drake barrier record
of 14.7 if given a dry track. Saling
equaled the Kansas relays mark of
14.6 last Saturday on a track
washed by an eighteen hour rain.
Hinckley of Kansas State and
Flick, Kansas, will furnish plenty
of opposition for the Hawkeye ace.
Rhea of Nebraska is back to de
fend bis shot put title won last
year with a heave of 50 feet, 7.2
inches, but the Husker star must
snap out of his late slump if he
would keep ahead of Clarence
Munn, 215 pound Minnesota
weight man, who has tosses of 49
feet to bis credit. Munn is Big Ten
champion, while Rhea holds nu
merous records in the event.
Although Purma of Illinois, 1931
champion In the discus throw Is
returning, the favorite In the plate
event is Melvm Thornhill of Kan
sas, who beat the mini man at
Kansas last week by six inches
Thornhill's best effort measured
136 feet, but much better marks
are expected this week at Drake
There i not outstanding choice in
tne javelin.
Beecher Outstanding.
Bryce Beecher of Indiana, Big
Ten record holder in the pole vault
with a mark of 13 feet, 8 inches
is by all odds the big noise in this
event, but Clyde Coffman of Kan
as, Lemington of Illinois and
Dean of Nebraska will give him
plenty to think about. Beecher
captured the Kansas Relays cham
pionship last week, jumping 13
feet, B'i inches.
Mell and Morris of Oklahoma
lead the broad jump contestants,
while Newblock, also of Oklahoma,
rates as an outstanding contender
for the high jump title. Ehrlich,
Kansas State, is another fine high
jumper.
In the sprint relays, Illinois has
an edge, but Iowa, Nebraska and

UUUJN UIL. MEETING
(Continued from Page 1.)
from the other delegates on Fri
day.
The conference will hold its first
session at 9 o'clock Saturday
morning in Gallery A of Morrill
hall. The question of campus
politics, political factions, and the
problem of monopolization of ac
tivities by dominant organized
groups is the general topic which
will receive first consideration,
Because this problem is one which
is encountered in all the schools
attending the conference as in
dicated by their correspondence,
the committee in charge expects it
will occupv the major portion of
the time of Hie morning session.
Discuss Offices.
Following this, discussion will
shift to the problem of class or
ganization, and of sinecure cam
pus offices such as class offices.
The Nebraska Student council is
holding up action on the disposal
of freshman and sophomore class
offices until it has been learned
from the other delegates what pos
sibilities there arc of finding
worthwhile functions for these of
fices.
In the afternoon session which
will start at 2 o'clock in gallery
A, ine question of the student ac
tivity blanket tax will be con
sidered. This is a plan to tax stu
dents a fixed amount of money
each year in return for which they
receive tbe privilege of participat
ing in every torm of student ac
tivity, instead of pavinc for each
separate activity which they at
tend or in which they engage, will
be considered. Missouri Hnd Iowa
State college are .it present con
sidering this plan for adoption.
The plan is in operation at Kau-
sas State college.
The last discussion topic con
cerns the problem of centralized
control over student activities by
student councils. The general ques
tion of how much control the
councils should establish over

Eight preliminary matches must
be played in the all university golf
tournament before first round play
begins, it was announced Thurs
day at the intramural office. Forty
linksmen, the largest number ever
to enter the meet will compete,
which necessitates paring the list
to thirty-two before regular play
can start.
It is hoped that these matches
will be played before Tuesday of
next week, as first round matches
are on tap immediately following
completion of the preliminary
round.
Preliminary matches are as fol

LIUSKER tracksters left for Des
Moines and the Drake relays
Thursday with a do or die deter
mlnatlon that promises a better
showing than that exhibited at
Kansas last week. Coach Schulte
told his boys the first of the week
that complacency was responsible
In Jargo part for their indifferent
work at Lawrence. Its a sure
thing that the Nebraska team
won't be afflicted with any "b'g I"
feeling at Drake, after Schulte has
harangued them in his forceful
fashion.
George Saner walk3 without u
limp now. He has regained most
of the fifteen pounds lost thru his
operation, and tips the scales at
18? pounds. George announces
that he is going out for track in
about another week, altho of
course he will have to take things
easy. The bwelling at his ankle
has been reduced to almost normal
size, but Sauer does not know yet
whether it will be able to go thru
a football season. He is inclined
to think it will.
V
Jerry Lee is not letting anything
stand in the way of running his
best at Drake this week end. Wed
nesday, the blonde Husker dash
man visited the barber. When
asked the customary question of
wnetner ne wished snme hair
removed from the' top, Jerrv
nodded assent. However, when
the operator finished with . him,
Jerry found that he had taken a
wide swath clear around, in addi
tion to cutting most of the hair
on top. Lee said he felt almost
bald, but he found a silver lining
in: "Well, the wind's not going to
Doiner me now when I run, he
grinned.

CATTLE INDUSTRY
IS THEME OF TALK .
GIVEN BY DR. DALE
(Continued from Page 1. 1
The vicclssitudes of the long Jour
ney made the drive difficult. The
Indians were a menace. In south
eastern Kansas and southwestern
Missouri Texas fever broke out
among the native cattle. The
Texas cattle were blamed and the
Kansans and Mlssourians refused
to let the Texas herds pass.
Many theories were advanced as
to the cause of the fever. One of
the causes, believed in by the na
tives, was that Texas fever was
obtained from the grass where the
Texas cattle grazed by breathing.
A "sort of bovine halitosis" as Dr.
Dale put it. The real cause was a
tick that the Texas cattle carried
north. The Texas cattle were im
mune to it but the northern cattle
were not.
In order to facilitate the trans
portation of cattle, Joe D. McCoy
aeciaea 10 mnia a depot in Aber
deen, Kas. In 1871. 600.000 head
of cattle were driven north to
Aberdeen. Many other cattle
towns sprang up, chief among
them were Dodge City and
Wihcita and Ogalalla, Neb.
"Dodge City's first jail was a
well. The sheriff would lower the
drunks into the well and let them
sit until they sobered up. The town
had two graves. One where they
planted those who had died In bed
and tho other where the stiffs that
had died with their boots on were
laid to rest. The latter was the
most crowded. Dodge City reminds
me of a boy that got drunk and
shot tip the town and then married
a good girl and settled down and
joined the church," reminisced Dr.
Dale.
Beef Shipments Made.
At last the ranchers woke up to
the possibilities in the north. The
dressed beef shipment was started
in 1876 and shipments were made
to England and Scotland. Three
million pounds of beef were
shipped by December, 1777. A
Scotch newspaper sent a corre
spondent over and he found out
that there was a twenty-five per
cent profit per head. A English
representative was also sent to
America and he estimated that the
profit was thirty-throe percent per
bead.
As a result of this Englishmen
and Sotchmen flocked ' to the
United States to Invest their
money in the enterprise. Great
ranches grew up and syndicates
were formed. People In the states
likewise invested money. Theodore
Kooscvelt was an example.
thought of death and tho world be
yond because they were so close to
nature and lived- a Ufo of peril.
The ranges were covered with
cattle In 1885. Everybody was ex.
pectlng to get rich. In the fall of
1886 tho thermometer went down.
It brought death. Everything
broke. The cattle business never
recovered from tho blow dealt it in
1885 and 1886. A loss of 70 to 80
percent of the stock wasn't un
common and h 90 percent loss was
not unusual. The rango got small,
cr because of the farms that
j sprang up.
It Was a dmocratlC SOCietV. but "Tho nlrl lim.i rnumrMi nrp crrmn
mere was ieuaansm in a sense as i but they aren't forgotten. Cities
there was the ranchbouse and tho
cowboys and the "attle. The rodeos
and roping contests took the place
of tilts.
Most of the cattle men, contrary
to the movie description were busi
ness men who knew and under
stood the markets. The cowboy
has been pictured as a Galahad
and an outlaw, both pictures are
incorrect, "just folks, plain, ordi
nary, bowleggcd humans," accord
ing to Professor Dale.
' Cowbov n-
The cowboy
was lonely. Mr.
que songs have .i,
others aren't so religions. They
are now where tho cowboy's duv.
out was. The flower of romanco
has faded and another has taken
its place. The cowboy was followcl
by the homesteader,' the city build,
er and the business man," was Dr.
Dale's final statement.
