O. K. With Couch
NORMAN. Doug Barham, Uni
versity of Oklahoma high Jumper,
seldom jumps. What's more. Ja
cobs, Sooner track coach, doesn't
care. In fact Jacobs would rather
Barham vouldn't Jump. Here's
why.
Barham is a sign puinter. More
over he's married and has to hustle
like the dickens at his trade to
send himself and wife thru the uni
versity. Consequently he has very
little time to come out for track,
a fact that worried the coRch
greatly until last Tuesduy.
On Tuesday Barham was able
to leave his work long enough to
suit up and take his first workout
since before Christmas. Jacobs set
the bar at 5 feet 6 Inches. Barham
cleared it. Jacobs kept increasing
the height but still Barham re
fused to miss. Finally the bar
stood at 6 feet 3 inches and every
body held their breath.
But Barham hopped over with
out ticking the bar. Then he buck
ed off and did it again. Jacobs, sur
prised, got out his steel tape and
varifled the height. It was 6 feet
3 inches.
"Go home," he ordered the ath
lete, "I don't want to see you any
more until March 2, the day we
leave for the 'Big Six' indoor
meet."

the invaders, running up 10 mark
ers, opened the scoring with an
overhead field goal from around
the foul circles.
Sophomores Aid Scarlet.
Whitaker came back with an
under-basket setup and Miller and
Parsons each came through to
again even the count. But from
here, until the insertion of Soren
son, the game was all Missouri.
After he entered the lineup the
count ran along fairly even, Ne
braska finally putting on a spurt
and emerging on the long end of
a 21 to 21 count at the half-time.
In the second canto Jorgenson
again opened the scoring but bas
kets by Boswell and Whitaker
promptly sent the home maple
men in front and later another
marker by Sorenson added to the
count. At this time however the
Missouri team made their last ef
fective rally, two baskets by Miller
and one by Jorgensen evening the
count at 26 all.
From then on the game was all
Nebraska, Lunney contributing a
field goal, then a pair of gift shots
and finally another field goal, then
a pair of gift shots and finally an
other goal to firmly establish the
Scarlet lead. Sorenson clinched
the victory by a beautiful pivot
shot from the foul circle to give
the Huskers the came, 34 to 27.
Miller, of the Bengals, given a
gift shot which he scored during
this process, ended the Invaders'
scoring for the evening.

COACH SHIRS SQUAD
Oklahoma Mentor Believes
This Is the Time for
Experiments.
MAY MAKE BETTER TEAM
NORMAN. Eight members of
last year's University of Oklahoma
football squad will be shifted to
new positions in the spring prac
tice now in progress, Lewie Har
dage, Sooner head coach, an
nounccd today.
"The time to make your experi
ments is during the spring prac
tice," the coach explained, and
then went on to point out the ex
ample of Heck Wakefield, Vander
bilt's great Ail-American end of
1923, who played two years as a
mediocre back, then was tried at
end in spring practice over his own
protest, only to develop into an ah
American.
"We will try Cash Gentry at end
this spring," Hardage said, "And
use Mutt Miller some as a back
because of his forward passing
ability. Bcede Long will get a
thorough trial at fullback and we'll
move Ben Povnor around in several
different positions until we find
the one we think suits him best.
"We plan to groom 'Nig' Robert
son as a triple threat this year. He
was a fine kicker and passer last
year as well as a ball-lugger but
becuso of an injured rigm snouiuer,
wasn't able to kick or pass much.
"Ken Little, the Altus boy, who
played center and end last season,
will be tried at tackle this spring.
He's not active nor fast enough for
an end but has gron to 200 pounds
stripped and is smart, a nara
charger and a good blocker on of
fense. And we're looking for bet
ter blocking ability on the part of
our tackles.
"Art Pansze will be tried both at
lerluick and left blocking half
while Harry Ellis, who played at
end for us last fall, will probably
be used at guard.
"We have eight boys who are
prospective passers, Robertson,
Poynor, Page, West, Miller, V.
Nemecek, Meyer and Art Pansze.
For kickers we're grooming Allen,
Gentry, Robertson, V. Nemecek,
Hewes, Page, Meyer and West."
Hardage also announced that he
will require all backs to try and
learn all four positions this spring.
"Suppose your fifth best back is a
full and vou want to substitute at
left half," he explained, "You can't
use your best sub because he
doesn't know the position you want
a substitute for. You have to use
an Inferior man."

The Nebraska basketball team
certainly demonstrated its ability
to come thru, last Friday evening
when they achieved the rather
surprising upset of the highly
touted Missouri Bengals. An what
is most pleasing about the whole
affair is the fact that most of the
sensational work of the squad was
performed by men who will be with
the team again next year.
Harry Sorenson's fine exhibition
the other evening brought him into
the limelight and marks him as a
great prospect for the coming year.
Before enrolling at Nebraska Sor
enson had handled a basketball
very little and was thoroly unac
nn.infoH with it. Since last vear
Coach Browne has been working
with him on the maples. But the
task of learning to handle a bas
ketball is slow at best and until
just recently he has not been able
to "find himself" so to speak. His
improvement has been so rapid of
late, however, that it is marked
and commented on by numerous
persons.
Heniy WhitaKer, St. Joseph, Mo.,
sophomore guard recently pro
moted to the varsity, turned in
one of the most brilliant perform
ances made by a Nebraska bas
keteer in many a moon. He not
only was high point man with 11
points, but proved himself at the
art of guarding. -Built low and
ttocky, with plenty of "English"
on the ball, he dribbled past the
Missouri guards time and again
for baskets. With two and a half
years of varsity competition ahead
of him, Henry is looked to as the
mainstay of teams to come in the
next two years.
The Husker cinder squad de
serves mention when it comes to
individual performance, and the
star of the production is Glenn
Funk, Central City youth, who
yesterday turned in the fastest
miles ever run on the indoor track
in Memorial stadium. His time,
4 minutes, 28 seconds, is remark
ably fast for thn track. The long
legged Junior plans to give Cun
ningham a race for his money
when the two clash in Memorial
stadium next Saturday, if they do.
Cunningham is expected to be in
New York for the New York Ath
letic club games Feb, 17.
But Kansas won't be the only
losing school. Coach Schulte is
working hard to prepare Heye
Lambertus to represent Nebraska
at the same meet. If Lambertus
rounds into shape, and his injured
leg muscle heals, Nebraska will be
minus some firsts in the coming
meet, unless his team mates come
thru in the pinch. If Cunningham
and Lambertus both go, neither
Nebraska nor Kansas will find it
self at a disadvantage when it
comes to figuring up the final to
tal, for their winning ability
matches each other.

Don Shirley Leads Huskers
in 25 1-2 to 6 1-2
Victory.
Nebraska's wrestling team
turned in a win Friday night after
the basketball game in a dual meet
with Kansas. The point score was
for Nebraska by the overwhelm
ing margin of 25 1-2 points to
6 1-2 points.
Four falls were registered dur
ing the fray. Captain Don Shirley
of the Huskers pinning George
Nolan of K. U. with less than a
minute to go of the allotted ten,
In the 135 pound match. This
match provided most of the fire
works, with Shirley holding the
edge throughout. Nolan doggedly
fought out of several dangerous
holds only to fall victim to a head
scissors and a bar armlock in 9
minutes 36 seconds.
Another fall came in the heavy
weight division when Robert Love
less of Kansas clamped a body
chancery on Wally DeBrown in 1
minute and 4 seconds. DeBrown
had broken the hold once when all
seemed lost only to fall victim to
it again and Loveless made the
most of his opportunity.
Vic Hildebrand put the Huskers
off to a flying start when he won
a decision over John Hampton,
Kansas in the 118 pound class.
Russell Cummings, Nebraska, was
too much for Elwood Leek in the
126 pound division, having the
Kansan's shoulders almost pinned
four times but the Jayhawk man
aged to stave off a fall to lose
only three points to a decision.
Falls score five points.
Bob Stump, of Nebraska, drew
with DeLos Douglas in the 135
pound class, although the crowd
thought Douglas should have been
given the decision.
Merle Wells, 145 pound Nebras
kan, won a decision handily from
Aubrey Annenburg.
Norris Easton of Nebraska
added five more points to. the
Husker cause when he won a' fall
from Tilly Tilford in 4 minutes 82
seconds in the 165 pound division.
Benno Funken, Husker foot
baller, took another fall in the 175
pound division with a half Nelson
over Frank Hodson in 4 minutes
33 seconds. He had forced the
scrimmage from the start.

First Three in Each Event
Compete Against Jays
In First Meet.
Led by Glenn Funk, who sot
a now indoor ri'ord on the Ne-brtih-ka
track, the Husker cin
der stars broke nearly all
marks previously made this
year in the tryouts Saturday un
der Memorial Stadium.
As a result of the workout,
Coach Schulte has chosen his team
that will represent Nebraska in
the dual meet with Kansas next
Saturday from those In the first
three places in the tryouts.
Funk, a Central City youth,
turned In the best individual per
formance of the day, winning first
in the mile and half mile runs and
setting a new record in the former.
Running In second place for three
fourths of the distance, Funk
stepped out In the last lap to win
by a large margin over his nearest
rival, White, and set a new record
of 4 minutes, 28 seconds for the
course. In winning his run, Funk
broke a time record that was set
by Johnson several years ago and
which had not been seriously
threatened until this year. In his
first trial, Funk came within
seven-tenths of a second of tying
the record, his time being 4 min
utes, 30 8-10 seconds.
Captures Half Mile.
Returning to the track a few
mlniitM later. FPiink won the half
mile run handily, although his
time for this event was not as fast
as the mark he had previously
mnriB. Hlu first trial, a week a20.
was run in 2 minutes and 5-10 of
a second. Yesterday he broke the
tape in 2 minutes and 3 seconds,
two and a half seconds slower.
The fact that he had already run
one nara race may nave naa some
thing to do with his slower time.
As in the mile, White finished sec
ond to Funk, a second and a half
behind him in time, and Ayres took
thlrri nlaee. These three men will
compete In the half mile against
Kansas.
SO Yard Dash Close.
The fifty yard dash was run
twice and was won by Jacobsen
ooKh tima with Cickhurn a close
second. In fact Cockburn was so
close a second that there was con
siderable discussion before Jacob
sen was given the decision. Many
nt th sneetators believed the
race ended in a dead heat. The
first was won by Jacobsen py a
email mnrtrln hilt the Second DrO-
vided grounds for considerable ar
gument, rne ume, o.i netuuua, waa
two-tenths of a second over the
mark established by Lambertus in
the tryouts a week ago. Lambertus
did not run yesterday due to an
injured muscle. Triba finished
thirH tn .Tarohsen and Cockburn,
and the choice for the team next
Saturday will rest between these
four men.
with Lamhertus out of the run
ning, Dohrman tied the record he
made last ween oy winning me
hurdles in 6.7 second time. Dohr
man hAnt Lambertus In this event
last week and these two will, with
Meier, make up the hurdlers next
Saturday.
England Takes 440.
England bettered by .5 of a sec
ond the mark he set last week in
winning his specialty, the 440 yard
dash, in 53.2 seconds. England led
the field by a considerable mar
gin, Roberts finishing second and
ciahor third. These three men will
compose the trio of quarter milers
against Kansas.
The long run of the day, two
miles, was won by Story in 10 min
utes, 1.9 seconds. Only three men

and Rluuor third. Storv WOn his
race by a wide margin, and Coach

place in this event with a toss of

ond with 43 feet 6 Inches, and RlsC

The three men will work against
Kansas Saturday.
Toman Wins High Jump.
Toman, varsity high Jumper,
who has been bothered recently
with a badly sprained ankle, re
turned to form yesterday to win
his specialty with a leap or 6 leet
10 inches, just one inch higher
than he jumped last week. Ander
son made 5 feet 4 inches before
missing, and Martin Jumped 5 feet
even to complete the list of per
formers. Cockburn won the broad jump in
one try, his first attempt bring
ing him 21 feet 8i inches and
victory. Due to a bruised heel he
was unable to jump again, but if
he had been able to, he would have
undoubtedly broken the mark of
22 feet made by cardweu, rresn
man, last week. Cockburn will be
in shape for the Kansas meet, it is
hoped. Humpal won second place
in this event with 21 feet 6 inches
and Mead third with 20 feet 4
Inches.
Dean Takes Pole Vault.
Dean set a new record in tho
pole vault by sailing over the cross
bar at a height of 12 feet 5 inches,
breaking by one inch the mark
made last week by Nichols. The
latter took second place with 12
feet 2 inches, and Cosgrave com
pleted the trio of winners with 12
feet even.
Completing the events of tho
day, several Freshman events were
held, of which Kenneth Chapman,
Wymore product, was the indi
vidual star. He tied with Eisner
for the 50 yard dash in 5.8 second
time, won the high hurdles in 7
seconds, and the low hurdles in 6.4
seconds. MacGarraugh finished
second in the hurdles and third In
the dash.
Coach Schulte is still not satisi
fied with the performance of his
men. "We still have a long way to
go," he said, "if we are going to
beat Kansas. While I look for
great things from my men, they
are going to have to dO more than
their best at the present time to
win the meet. I am positive that
anomer weeK oi uvu wum wn
put us in top notch shape for the
Jayhawks."
