THURSDAY, FKRRUARY 13, 1936. THE DAILY NFBRASKAN THREE I SET TO REVENGE IE VICT Cornhusker Winning Streak More Impressive Than Aggies' Losses. Bath night will bring that same quintet to town that efficiently nipped the Hunker 41-40 and con sequently washed Nebraska's titu lar chances with mud on the dark night of January 26 at Ames. Though the game has long been past tense, the Brownemcn have never been able to overlook that conference blemish at the hands of the Cyclones and thus have car ried a constant chip on their shoulder so far as this quint is concerned. As the date draws near, the Huskers take a tighter grip on the victory as it is learned that Captain Torvald Holmes will be confined to his bed with a couple of swollen jowls as a result of an acute attack of mumps. Holmes was the third high scorer on the Cyclone squad and was looked to by the Corn State fans for the major part of the floor play. Iowa at Conference Bottom. Since the time of the first cage engagement, Nebraska has been presenting a victory serial, while Iowa has hit too much opposition and at present adorns the south cm extremity of the conference list. Missouri, over whom Ne braska won last Satuday 43-33, took the Cyclones as a gentle zephyr in a comparatively simple contest. "No definite predictions may be made on this game, like all other conference games," said Coach W. H. Browne. "It looks like our game from all outward appear ances, but you can never tell w hat is in a player's mind." Although they underwent a strenuous program last week the Huskers should be as fit as a fid dle by the end of the week. Kan sas State, a quint that everyone was overlooking last week rather than looking over, pressed the Scarlet within an inch of their conference life in a 40-32 fracas. Had it not been for a goodly lead piled up the early moments of the game, Browne's men might have again found themselves crawling battle scarred from the little end of the horn. Groves established himself as one of the Big Six leaders at the pivot post as he played one of the finest games exhibited by anyone this year. Huskers Not Too Confident. Aesop would have gloated over the outcome of the Kaggie-Husker mix as the Huskers were taught in a manner almost too dear never to let over-confidence reign. There was never any evidence of ego tism among the Nebraskans after the first few moments of play once they had seen that the Wild cats had serious intentions in in i lid. Iowa State brings with them two of the high point collectors of the Big Six, Cowen with 51, and Fleming with 59. It is a well known fact that the Cyclones have a mean disposition and will quibble by hard fought caging un til the victory is theirs or proved out of their reach by the final gun. As a tribute to Harvey Widman for his efficient, persistent type of playing and this being his senior year, he will act as captain Saturday night and the game will be dedicated to him. PLANS FOR CARNIVAL Coed Counselors Choose Ideas for Use in Side Shows. Ten plans for the construction of side shows, submitted by vari ous organized houses on the cam pus, were accepted by members of the coed counselor board when they met for a special session Wednesday evening. The side shows will be a part of the an nual penny carnival to be held Feb. 22 in Grant Memorial hall. Groups whose ideas were ac cepted are as follows: Alpha Chi Omega, Alpha Omicron Pi, Alpha XI Delta, Chi Omega, Barb A. W. S. league, Delta Delta Delta, Delta Gamma, Kappa Alpha Theta, Pi Beta Phi, Sigma Delta Tau, and Wilson and Howard halls. The selection was made from a list of 15 entries, which were sub mitted at Mrs. Westover's desk in Ellen Smith hall. The idea of allowing the differ ent organizations to submit plans for the carnival entertainment is a new one, being initiated this year by the board. Previously the coed counselors have taken com plete charge of the festivity, each having charge of one booth and being assisted by coed counselors. "The plans were judged on the basis of variety and originality," according to Elizabeth Moomaw, president of the organization. "We also had to consider the plausibil ity of presentation." F. C BLOOD TALKS ON BUSINESS PROBLEMS F. C. Blood, professor of adver tising, spent Monday and Tues day in Grand Island attending the annual convention of the Nebraska Retailers association. Tuesday aft ' ernoon he addressed the group on aaveral retaail business problems. NEBRASKA QUIN YCLOI Gasolene 1 Motor Oil W 10eto30c Gal.

All fraternity handball entries are to be filed' by next week, ac cording to intramural director Harold Petz, who Wednesday an ticipated another large turnout for the 1936 hand court competition. The intramural department will inform the fraternities of the pol icy for this year by correspond ence. Each Greek letter house is per mitted to enter four entries, two singles and one double. Each sin gles match counts one point and the doubles match is worth two points. Three out of the possible four points is necessary to win the match. An all-victorious team will be awarded the championship. Last year Sigma Alpha Mu won first, Sigma Alpha Epsilon second. Delta Tau Delta third, and Sigma Chi fourth. The SAM team, composed of David Goldware, Harry Rosenstein, Henry Riekes, and Jack Epstein, is minus the services of Riekes and Epstein this year, but they have several up-and-coming handball artists to fill the vacant shoes. Director Petz also announced that varsity sports squadmen are ineligible for all intramural com petition. IS Alice Sowers Compliments Paret Education in School. Complimenting Nebraska Teach ers college as one of the pioneer ing schools in the field of parental education, Alice Sowers, specialist in parental education, in a talk be fore classes in education Wednes day morning, stated that a nation wide movement to educate the parents as well as the students was well under way. Miss Cowers, representing the headquarters of the National Con gress of Parents-Teachers Asso ciation at Washington, D. C, told the embryonic teachers that the school of today is such an impor tant part of modern civilization that it cannot confine its activity to the youth within is walls. "Nebiaska," she said, "Is lore most among the states recognizing this need." For the past several years Dean Henzlik has included a course in adult education of fered during summer school each year. She mentioned that Oregon even had laws requiring courses in family relation to be offered to both boys and girls in high school. KOSMET SHOW AUTHOR IS LIKE M A R I SANDOZ PERSISTENT.

He makes you feel warmish like all over. Coach Browne labeled him as "excellent floor man and the best ball hand ler on the squad." BOB LEACOX From Lincoln Journal His early maple training came not only from Shenendoah high school, but also from Iowa U. where he played for a year and a half. During this period an in teresting little adecdote occur red. Jack North named him as an all stater for two successive years. (The funny part has not come yet. ) Upon returning to his familiar haunt, the state basket ball tournament at Des Moines, la., he bustled up to the all star picker and beamed. Only a cold unrecognizlng stare came as re taliation. After twenty years of existence he still has not learned his les son, iot when queried on the subject of the fragiles he quite unhesitatingly answered that he had some definite ideas about brunettes. Thrills predominated his ath letic career in prep school more than now. His greatest came in a tight skirmish with the Iowa State champions in which Shenendoah came out on the sunny side by two points in the last moments of ac tion. Spring means more than sulphur and molasses to young Robert, for while basketball is his major, he also dotes on picnics, so he says. It is probable that there will be another Leacox on the university books next year when a younger one. a girl, will be ready for higher larnin'. e The Sig Alph forward firmly believes that if any Big Sixer knocks off Kansas U before the Huskers turn at them, that fans will see the finest Nebraska quint in action that ever shuffled over the hardwood. "Nebraska will be inspired even tho thev do go into the game certain thrt they will not win, but if they think they have a chance at the title, watch 'em go," he con tributed.

MWi'.na E Comparative Scores Favor Kansans in Conference Game Friday. With the odds stacked ugainst them, Nebraska's wrestlers will defend their unblemished Big Six record against the Kansas Aggies next Friday, Feb. 14, at Manhat tan. Kansas State is probably the toughest of the Big Six teams, ac cording to Coach Jerry Adams. Comparative scores Indicate an Aggie vietoiy. Nebraska bent Missouri 17 to 11, while Kansas State took them 28 to 3, This is tho only Big Six meet for the Kaggies, while Nebraska gave Kansas a 32 to 0 whitewash ing last week. The Kansas Stat ers also have the edge on non conference meets. They were edged out by Oklahoma A. anil M., one of the strongest teams in this section. Nebraska has been soundly whipped by both Minne sota and low:t State Teachers. High Scorers Determined. Not only will this meet be inter esting from the Hig Six angle, but will determine the standings of individual performers in the hot race for individual scoring honors among the Huskers. At present, Bernard "Benno" Funkcn, Nebraska's star heavyweight, leads by virtue of having scored 13 points, or an average of better than three points for each of the four meets. Loien "Dutch" Simons, of the 17.r pounds class, is a done second with 5) points. Ray "Sworn:" Lar son of tho 145 pounders is third with 6 1-2 points. Other wrestlers scoring in the meets so far are: Don Flasnick, 165 pounds, 6 points: Julius Wittman, 135 pounds, 4 points; Fred Mallon, 155 pounds; Clee Smiley, 126 pounds, and Sol Levine, 105 pounds, all three points each. Other wrestlers hope to break the ice in the Kan sas State meet. New Type Scoring. The new type of scoring in col lege wrestling, where a distinction in points is made between a win by a fall or by a decision, has in creased the desire for falls and has speeded up the game. In stead of coasting to a safe victory by decision, the man who is ahead trys to get the two extra points which victory by a fall will give. The present scoring is five points for a fall, three points for a de cision, and one and a half points for a draw The tentative lineup for the Kansas Aggie meet is the same as for the Kansas meet. This consisted of: Fred Webster. 118 lbs.; Clee Smiley, 12fi lbs.; Julius Wittman, 135 lbs.. Ray Larson, 145 lbs.; Fred Mallon. 155 lbs.; Don Flasnick, 165 lbs.; Loren Si mons, 175 lbs., and Bernard Fun ken, heavyweight. Don "Flash" Flasnick will captain the team for the Kansas State meet.

GAME PRELIM As a reward for the efforta of the Greek8 in their hardwood campaign, the two fraternltlea who persist to the finals will meet for the playoff In a curtain raiser preceding the Kansas U encounter Feb. 28. Not only should this prove an incentive for a high brand of intramural basketball, hut should also result in a better than mediocre bit of entertainment for the cage minded on the aide lines that night. Having checked off three rounds of the round-robin, the Greeks have displayed themselves as able basketeers. Director Bill Homey is convinced that the caliber of the caging is higher this year than It has ever been, The Acacia, Sigma Nu, Alpha Tau Omega, Phi Gamma Delta, and Phi Kappa Psl have substantiated their boasts of GREEK 'B' TEAMS RESUME MAPLES PLAY WEDNESDAY Intramuralists End Second Round With Pi K A Upset Score. Intramural athletes carrying "B" team colors resumed their basketball activities Wednesday evening as they completed their second round of play. No startling upsets were recorded, the quintets coming through with expected vic tories, except for the Pi Kappa Alpha five, champions in Class "B" last year, which tumbled to Delta Sigma Lambda. Sigma' Chi established itself as the leading contender for the "B" crown as Cardwell, Yelkin and company toyed with the Beta Theta Pi cagesters, leaving the floor with a 28-3 victory to their credit. In the other League 1 en counter, the brightly uniformed lad of Acacia failed to follow in the footsteps of their "A" basket ball brethren, as they succumbed to Farmhouse, 14-3. League 2 found Sigma Phi Epsi lon coming to the front with an easy 22-3 win over Zeta Beta Tau, the winners evidently being stim ulated by their bright new purple uniforms. Chi Phi disposed of Kappa Sigma, 14-8, in the remain ing League 2 contest. Delta Sigma Lambda came through in League 3 with a minor upset over the former champs, Pi u-arma Ainhn the final count be ing 17-15. This constitutes the second loss for the Pi Kappa Alpha, the final count being 17-15. This constitutes the second loss for the Pi Kappa Alpha quintet and definitely removes them from the title picture. Sigma Nu continued traveling along the victory path with a 20-12 verdict over Sigma Alpha Epsilon. The game was a nip and tuck affair, Sigma Nu pulling ahead in the last live min iiioo in fair,- the came. The re- 1 maining League 3 engagement fnnnri a inha Tau Omee-a over coming the Phi Delta Theta quint by a 19-5 margin.

Husker tanksters will open their Big Six swimming season with meets with Kansas State on Fri day, Feb. 14, and Kansas U. on Saturday, Feb. IS. These two meets will indicate whether Ne braska swimmers will havo the goods to retain their Big Six crown, which they won last ye-ir. Big Six championships are not determined by dual meets. The teams will rank according to their showing at the Big Six conference meet to be held in Kansas City, March 13 and 14. The two Kansas meets will show the relative strength of Nebraska's team to a largo extent, however. Kansas Teamsas Yet Untried. Tho two Kansas teams are us yet untried in competition. Hus ker splashers lost their only meet this year to Minnesota, 57-27. Ne braska, however, is given the edge on basis ot its showing last year. Kansas State should fur nish the stiller competition, ac cording to Coach Minor. The Huskers' chances are much Improved over those before the Minnesota meet, as nil of the men have been taken off the nick list, with the exception of DougUs Doit, who is still suffering from sinus trouble. He will make tho trip and may swim if his condition permits. Harry Kuklin. Big Six diving champion, will not make the trip, and may be out for tho rest of the season. Minor to Take Entire Squad. Coach Minor plans to take the entire squad south. He empha- i sizes that the lineup is only tenta tive.
