OF FROLIK ADDRESS
Tri-K Club Learns Factors
Affecting Management
Of Bird Life.
"Wild Game Management" was
the subject of a talk by Prof. A.
L. Frolik at the Tri K club ban
quet Wednesday evening. Profes
sor Frolik told of the mechanics
of the populations of wild game.
Among the factors that Influence
wild game populations Is the
breeding rate which is counter
balanced by hunting and killing,
available food, available shelter In
which the birds may hide, dis
eases, and parasites.
Two of the most critical sea
sons for game In this country are:
the winter season, particularly
when there Is snow on the ground
and the birds have difficulty In
finding food and hiding spots; aad
during the nesting season when
birds can not find good places to
hide while they nest. When at
tractive nesting places are not
available there Is danger to the
wild game from dogs, cats, farm
ers' mowing machines and other
related factors.
Professor Frolik also touched on
the nubiect of predators those
animals which live by preying on
other animals in reiauon 10 we
game ranges. "Game breeding
rate depends principally on the
presence of favorable conditions
for nesting and safety," Btated
Professor Frolik.

Lineup Intact.
. v By Dick Kunzman.
Shortly before 2 o'clock
tomorrow afternoon, Coach
Adrian Lindsey's Kansas Jay
hawks are going to stream out.
of the southwest corner of Me
morial stadium to do battle. Short
ly afterward, Dana Bible's Corn
huskers are going to gallop out
of the diagonally opposite corner,
also to do Battle. Shortly after
at exactly 2 o'clock when the
Cornhuskers and the Jayhawks
have limbered up sufficiently and
successfully, the referee is going
to toot his whistle.
And simultaneously, without
any delays, "shortlys," or other
preliminaries, the battle which
will determine whether or not Ne
braska has the stuff it takes to
make champions will be under
way.
Title at Stake.
Which means that the Nebras
kans will have to do something
besides simply appearing on the
field If they expect to bring back
to its rightful habitat the confer
ence title that Kansas State
swiped last Thanksgiving. Kan
sas, with an undefeated record in
the conference and a certain
chance to cop the championship
if she can get past Nebraska, is
out for blood, and she doesn't
mean maybe.
Keyed up to a feverish pitch
that would have put to shame
anything Rublnoff or Greta Garbo
ever managed, the Jayhawks have
appropriated one of Coach Bible's
strong points and "will not be
denied." They're all set) to go,
these conference leaders, and they
figure on going right on till they
have licked Nebraska and taken a
death grip on the title. They're
not cocky or overconfident sim
ply determined, and, in the words
of Ad Lindsey, ready to "give
everything they've got."
And just what is Nebraska do
