Kansas unlv ersity's Jayhawk
basketball aggregation whirls into
Lincoln tonight on wings fashion
ed from the unquestioned leader
ship in the Big Six conference
Kansas, the pride of the Big Six
when ore is speaking of the rela
tive merit of first-place conference
teams throughout the country; but
Kansas, the most to-be-feared
team in the Big Six when one's
own team must be her opponent,
will tangle with Nebraska's Corn
huskers tonight on the coliseum
maples.
But it is not with any uneasy
apprehension at facing the leader
of the league, at lacing tne pnae
of the conference, that Nebraska
goes up against the Jayhawks at
8 o'clock this evening. It is with
the most to-be-feared team in the
Big Six that Nebraska plays a bas
ketball game tonight. And, sacri
legious as the statement seems,
Nebraska's cellar-guarding hoop
sters are not losing any sleep or
tearine out any hair in anticipa
tion over the probable outcome of
the game between the first-place
and last-place teams in the Big
Six.
This Kansas Team.
There is an almost university
old tradition in Kansas-land which
would make as much, or more, of a
cataclysm at the University of
Kansas it the championship of the
Big Six basketball race did not
come home yearly to the fold of
the Jayhawks as when Nebraska
lost the Big Six football title to
Kansas State last Thanksgiving.
It is recognized throughout the
conference realm that Kansas
yearly puts forth almost an un
beatable cage combination and
that Kansas will take the cham
pionship in the maple sport.
In addition to this influential,
yea, almost insuperable, force of
tradition, Kansas university has a
nearly veteran aggregation. There
is not a man on Coach Phog Al
len's starting quintet who is less
than six feet above terra firma; in
fact. Coach Allen's son is the only
man on the entire Jayhawk com
bination who is under the six foot
altitude. Kansas has a passing at
tack which no Big Six team has
ever been able to equal, much less
excel. Kansas teams simply do
not make bad passes.

ketball virtues a team with a rifle
man's eye for the basket, a team
with an exceptional running and
floor assault, and a team with
more of that thing it takes to win
a basketball game, and you have
the reason Kansas reposes at the
top of the Big Six basketball heap.
Add Dr. F. C. Allen himself, and
you have the key to the almost
endless Jayhawk string of Big Six
cage victories. Coach Phog Allen,
the first paid basketball coach in
America, is the main cog in the
drive wheel system which has more
conference championship scalps
under lis belt than all the rest of
the Big Six put together.
But coach Harold Browne s Ne
braska cagesters have not allow
ed this impressive array of maple
laurels to frighten them from a
firm-founded determination to put
forth their best this evening when
the two teams clash. Nebraska
does not have a team like Coach
Allen's, Nebraska does not have a
basketball tradition like the one in
Lawrence, and Nebraska knows it.
Nevertheless, the Huskers have
not allowed the knowledge to de
tract them from the best basket
ball they can produce. Whether
the Huskers rest in first or last
position, whether they have a tra
dition or not is immaterial; the
outstanding fact to observe is that
they have always done their best.

nation against the Kansasns will

position, Harvey Widman and Bud

SCARLET NUBBINS
HAVE GALA TIME;
Husker 4B' Snows Under
Junior Collegians 43-21 for
One-Sided Win.
Coach Wilbur Knight's Nebras
ka "B" team laid 11 on thick and
heavy Thursday night, so thick
and so heavy in fact that a Mc
Cook Junior college basketball
team didn't have time to collect its
wits, dignity, or, what was much
more important, a few shots at the
basket, and the Husker seconds
won 43 to 20 oh the maples of their
perpetual habitat, the Ag college.
In doing so, the "B" basketeers
took a 2 to 1 lead in their series
with the McCook lads. The two
teams had split two previous en
counters, the Juniors winning at
home, and the "B" triumphing on
their own stamping grounds.
Some Fun, Eh Kid?
The Knightmen had one grand
time of it Thursday. Ten men were
on the floor at various times for
the glory of the Nubbins, and each
of the ten managed to put at least
one free throw into the scoring
column. And all but one slipped
the ball thru the netting at least
once, and that one would have if
the hand had only followed the
eye that is, if the ball had gone
where the thrower was looking,
and also if he had had just a lit
tle more playing time in which to
strut his stuff.
But all in all , it was one big
time for the Nebraskans. and an
evening of futile attempts on the
part of McCook Junior college to
stem the steady stream of baskets
raining from the hands of Husker
sharpshooters. There was time, if
they had so desired, for the Ne
braskans to take leave of absence
from their basketball chores and
play a game of tit-tat-too, or
Simon says thumbs up. but in the
first place not any of the lads in
Scarlet livery carried writing im
plements in his basketball togs,
and in the second, well, throwing
the basketball around the floor was
much more diverting and much
more enjoyable sport.
Oh, Yes, It's a Win.
From the opening whistle. Wil
bur Knight leaned back in his
chair with a self-satisfied, com
placent smile, like the cat who
knows the canary is there and that
she can't just miss. For his lads
were performing sleight of hand
tricks with the pill that had the
McCook Collegians looking every
place but on the ceiling for the
basketball.
Yet when it did appear. It wan

during the entire first half that
McCook's pride and joy really had
a chance to find out what the ball
felt like was in their warm-up be
fore taking the floor. After that
well, 21 to 7 at lunchtime speaks
for itself.
Hard on Ref, This Basketball.
Even the referee was beginning
to have a hard time stifling yawns,
and the college lads who did attend
were chatting amiably with the
bored but fairer sex in the audi
ence when a pistol shot announced
the end of the flip-'em-in game.
The first half was nothing more
or less than a Nebraska basket, a
tip-off ,and another Nebraska bas
ket. Of course. McCook did a little
pot-shooting of her own which
grabbed off 7 points as against
the Scai lot 21.
With the start of the second
half, however, the tussle evened
up somewhat. McCook Junior col
lege must have taken a dose of
powerful potion, for she scored
thirteen points, but in the interim
Wilbur Knight's playboys buck
eted twenty-two. And so it ended.
Nebraska "B" 43, McCook 21.
Wayne State Teachers college is
next on the program for the

will be played at Wayne, and is tlv;
first of a two game series.
Jacobson Hiqh As Usual.
Husker scoring was fsirly even
ly divided between the ten men,
with Jacobson hooking top honors
as usual with five double-deckers
and one free-throw a total of
eleven. Hopt was next with five,
while Captain Schick and Gotfred
son garnered four each.
Gage and Smith led the McCook
scoring, and did most of what de
fensive work was done by their
quintet. Gage got seven points and
Smith six. Summaries.

T
TO IOWA CITY FOR
FLIP-FLOP MEET
Huskers Engage Iowa U and
Illinois in First Go
Of Season.
Conch Charlie Miller's Husk
er tumbling ernflsmcn will get
their first taste of competition
this season when they journey
to Iowa City FriiliTy Feb. 22.
The squad, a portion of which dis
played a very acceptable sample
of their wares to Nebraskans be
tween the halves of the Denver
Nebraska basketball game recent
ly, will compete in their first meet
of the current term on that date
in a triangular contest with the
Universities of Iowa and Illinois.
The fray will open not only the
1935 tumbling season for the
Huskers but also the second year
of intercollegiate competition at
Nebraska. The schedule last year
was the first intercollegiate one
arranged for the Scarlet gym
nasts, and as a result of a lack of
funds the sale was very limited.
This year, however, the athletic
board has been more generous in
its allotment to the tumblers and
Coach Miller has been able to draw
up a most pretentious program. In
addition to the tri meet with Iowa
and Illinois, and the national A.
A. U. and N. C. A. A. meets, the
Nebraska tumbling tutor has ar
ranged tilts with the Universities
of Colarod and Missouri. Colorado
State Teachers college and Colo
rado Agricultural college
The five-man team which Coach
Miller plans to enter in the meet
at Iowa City will be constructed
mainly around four veterans. The
stalwarts are Kdward Reynolds,
all-university champ in 1934-35;
Floyd Herman, all-university win
ner in 1933-34, Jack Green, univer
sity flying ring champ; and Ed
ward Bignell, weathered tumbler.
Richard Kelley, the other member
of the quintet, although slightly
less advanced may be counted
upon to bring in his share of the
honors.
The five events which will count
toward scoring in the Iowa City
fray are the flying rings, tumbling,
parallel bars, horizontal bars, and
the side horse.

in 1932 the Huskers nave emerged
from the little end of the horn in
every meeting of the two teams
during that time. But this after
noon for the first time favors of
the dope bucket, if such there be,
seem to hang a trifle more heavily
on the Nebraska side of the fence.
At any rate, according to Jack
Minor, former Husker letterman
and now varsity swimming mentor,
the fray promises to be one of the
most hotly contested dual meets
on the Scarlet tank schedule. Iowa
State, Big Six champions last year,
holds four of the conference event
records, having chalked up the
best times of the league in the 100
yard free style, 200 yard breast
stroke, 50 yard back stroke, and
the 300 yard medley relay. But
the Scarlet mermen have bettered
5 of the 9 conference records in
practice thus far this season.
"Those who attend the meet Fri
day afternoon may expect to see 5
of the 9 conference records
smashed," Minor stated Thursday.
The Nebraska team will consist
of Glyndon Lynde, Jim Pixley,
Keith Schroeder, Jack Gavin, Ben
Rimmerman, and Herb Weston,
free stylers; Reed Smith, Bob Gib
bons, breast strokers; Harry Kuk
lin, Jack Gavin, back strokers;

'Can Do Better' Oklahoman
Says, After Cracking
Big Six Mark.
NORMAN, Feb. 14. Rocketing'
a quarter of a mile thru the water
in 5 minutes 11.8 seconds in prac
tice Monduy, Jack Davis, Okla
homa swimmer, whs dissatisfied as
he relaxed at the finish mark,
panting to recover his breath. Dis
satisfied in spite ol the fact he d
unofficially broken his "Big Six"
440 yard free stylo record by 33
seconds, approximately two
lengths of the pool.
For Jack has had to learn to
swim all over again and he's not
nearly as smooth as he wants to
be.
"I'm learning a new stroke and
a new turn this season," explains
the Sooner swimmer. "Up at the
national last year a fellow named
Jack Medica, of Washington,
swam the 440 in 4:46.6, a new
world's record. Altho I swam fast
er than I ever had in my life, Med
ica beat me more than a length of
the pool. He had beautiful form,
using a stroke I'd never seen bo
fore, the Japanese stroke. My
American crawl looked like a high
schooler's in comparison.
"After I was eliminated, I was
determined to learn all I coud
about that new stroke. I talked to
Medica and he gave me some
swell pointers. I talked to Jimmy
Christy, the Michigan captain, and
he showed me all he knew. I talked
to everybody until I guess 1 was
the champion pest of the meet, but
I came away from there with the
book on that new stroke.
"Last October I started working
on it. Bruce Drake, physical educa
tion instructor, helps me a lot. We
are finding the new stroke has
very little waste motion and goes
good with my six beat kick. We're
also working on a new turn that
gives me a longer pushoff and an
extra breath without sacrificing
speed."
Learning the new stroke is just
one of Davis' problems. Oklahoma
has no men's pool so Jack has been
hard put to find a place to swim.
Last year he practiced in a pond
north of Norman. Last November,
hungry for a swim, he dove into
the new mirrored reflection pool
located north of the new brick
time clock on Owen field but a
heartless lanscape gardner ran him
out a minute later. Now Jack is
permitted to use the women's pool
during the noon hour, just when
everybody else is eating a nice
warm lunch.
