Ralph Eldridge Scores Lone
Touchdown of Game
Saturday.
With Ralph Ftdridge streaking
down the field t0 yards to a touch
down after intercepting" a pass, the
Reds edged out the Whites of the
spring foothal squad 6 to 0 Sat
urday afternoon on the. south prac
tice field. With the exception of
this scoring run, not much progress
was made by either the Red or
White elevens, although the Reds
threatened to score several times
in the final half.
The mist-laden north wind
proved a big handicap during the
full-time game, and none of the
backs succeeded in getting" off to
lengthy runs. George Saner proved
to be as consistent as any of the
ball-carriers, but wasn't able to
get away, because of the slippery
turt and ragged interference.
Roby's Punts Outstanding.
Outstanding in the tilt was the
punting of John Roby, who played
an end post, on the Red eleven.
Several times he succeeded in
getting off kicks which sailed ovei
the head of La None, safety man
for the Whites. LaNoue performed
very effieently for the
Quarterback, and ran
Whites at
back the
punts in goo! fashion.
Tn the first half the White line
proved inpenetrablc as far as the
opposing ball-luggers were con
cerned, and attempts at an aerial
game were made, although to no
avail. This line is the one which
at least temporarily is doped to be
the varsity forward wall for next
fall.
Peds Hold Upper Hand.
However the second half, with
two completely revised lineups in
action, the tide turned and the
Reds held the upper hand all
through the third and fourth quar
ters Attempts at a passing at
tack proved futile for both sides,
and the goal line was not in any q
particular danger previous to iud
ridge's touchdown run.
Although the quality of play
wasn't quite up to that expected,

Memorial Stadium Is Comparable to
Pie-Shaped Slice of Silver Dollar
Take a narrow pie-shaped slice
out of a silver dollar, enlarge it to
playing field size, stand it on its
point, and then you have the foot
ball playing field in the Memorial
Stadium. Since 3923. university
teams have played on what
amounts to a 110 foot slice out of
a horizontal cylinder 300 feet long
and with a diameter of G102 feet,
or more than a mile. A silver dol
lar on edge is almost an exact rep
lica of such a cylinder.
The stadium playing field is not
level, according to O. A. Ellis, uni
versity construction engineer, who
had charge of designing the play
ing field. The two side lines of
the playing field are of the same
elevation, but the north and south
center line is one foot higher than
the edges.
According to Mr. Ellis, all north
and south lines in the field of Me
morial stadium are level and all
east and west lines swing in a true
circular arc with a radius of 3201
feet. This circular crosssecfion of
the field improves the drainage
among other things. The next
time you are ia the stadium, says

The weatherman hardly gave
the Husker footballers good treat
ment Saturday afternoon in thew
full time scrimmage. That frigid
north wind packed plenty of pun
ishment for spectators, who were
few, and for the players. When it
comes to playing the first time in
a spring football session, the play
ers probably would prefer to have
warm hands with which to handle
the football. Coach Rible had
planned to run each of the two

White, thru a full time game, but

To Eliminate Tennis
15ecaii.se of a deficiency in funds
at the Athletic department the
University has decided to elimin
ate tennis from the Nebraska
sports calendar. The Athletic
boar.! readied this decision by de
clining to "put .my money" into
the net sport. They did state,
however, that the varsity team
would be allowed to compete with
other Universities if each member
wished to furnish his own trans
portation. ARTICLES BY DR. 11
Professor Conducts Unusual
Survey on 'Place Names
In Nebraska.'
The only work of its kind ever
completed in the United States, a
bulletin "The Origin of the Place
Names of Nebraska" was printeJ
by the Nebraska Geological Sur
ely last week. Written by Dr. T. J.
Link of Seward its purpose is to
preserve the history of the various
place names in the state.
Dr. Link, who is a professor at
the Concordia Teachers College,
Seward, spends pait of his time at
the Conservation and Survey divi
sion as special research assistant.
He put in more than twelve years
of work gat lining information for
his thesis, which was the basis for
the bulletin. He was granted his
doctor's degree in the spring of
liC.2. The information was gath
ered by interviewing and corre
sponding with thousands of indi
viduals, and by carrying on an im
mense amount of field work.
The place names of Nebraska
are studies in their various classes,
with examples of each class being
given. They are divided into nat
ural and cultural classes, with
these divisions being subdivided
into inherent, adherent, relational,
and material and spiritual culture
classes, respectively. These are
further divided into minor groups,
according to distinctive differences
in the names.
