SGHULTEMEN TO

BIG SIX LAURELS
Fifteen Husker Cinder Stars
Compete in Annual
Indoor Meet.
A contingent of 15 Cornhuskers
will leave Thursday afternoon to
take part in the 15th annual Big
Six indoor conference track and
field meet at Columbia March 6
and 7. Coach Henry F. Schulte
nm his Hssistants. Harold Petz,
Ed Weir, and W. H. Brown, will
accompany the squad.
Basing his predictions on the
performances of the Huskers
asainst Kansas and Kansas State,
Coach Schulte has high hopes of
returning to Huskerland with an
other conference track trophy
tucked under his arm. Competition
win ho unusually keen, Coach
Krhnite indicated, but Nebraska
hu the men who can place in all
events with the exception of the
high jump.
Only Fifteen Men.
A mix-up in the Big Six confer
ence rulings provides for only 15
men from each college, instead of
the desired 18. "We sure could use
three more men," said Coach
Schulte.
Nebraska's squad will consist of
Harold Jacobsen, Standley Haight,
Lloyd Cardwell, Les Pankonin,
Harwln Dawson, Bob Morris, Wil
son Andrews, Fred Matteson, Dave
Rice, Sam Francis, Sherman Cos
grove, George Galloway, Jack
Dodd, Kenneth Chapman, and
Chet Beaver.
Llovd Cardwell. who tallied 16
points last week against Kansas
State, will participate in the broad
jump, sprint, low and high hurdles.
Jake Jacobsen will take his last
pot-shot at the indoor Big Six
records, especially in the 60 yard
sprint. Ken Chapman and Standley
Haight are two hurdlers whom
Coach Schulte expects to place
near the top.
Andrews Favored.
Bob Morris will perform his
specialty race, the half mile run,
which he should win if he can
continue running as fine as he has
been doing. Dave Rice is another
half miler. Chet Beaver and Wil
son Andrews are Husker hopes in
the mile run, with Andrews fav
ored to win.
Les Pankonin and Harwin Daw
son are the quarter milers upon
whom Coach Schulte is trusting to
place against' a strong field.
Southern members of the confer
ence boast of an abundance of dis
tance runners who are touted to
carry away all runs in the meet.
A triumvirate of crack pole
vaulters will boost the Huskers'
chancea In the field events. Sher
man Cosgrove, George Galloway,
and Jack Dodd are the men. Cos-
erove has cleared 13 feet 4 1-4
inches and the dope bucket spills
forth to sav that "Sherm" win
be in the upper stratum when the
heights are measured. Galloway
and Dodd both have skinned across
the eross-Diece at 12 feet 6 inches,
and are expected to be point-winner.
Sam Francis is Nebraska's big
hope, however. Sam has been toss-
ine the- shot between 47 and 48

strikes his beat form, the metal

Jock Sutherland has done it
airaln. The dear Doctor, head foot
ball coach at the University of
Pittsburgh, haH just issued his an
nual declaiatton that he thinks Ne
braska is the team to beat thruout
the country. In a special Interna
tional News release Tuesday night
he predicts that Minnesota, Prince
ton, Notre Dame, Ohio State,
Southern Methodist and tSanford.
will come thru again this year
with as fine teams as they had
last year.
"However," says the Doctor,
"the team they will all be watch
ing is none of these, but Dana
X. Bible's Nebraska Cornhuik
er. They have been hovering at
or near greatness for a few sea
sons without actually getting
there. This time I think they're
due. In fact, I have a pretty
pronounced hunch that they're
the team to break Minnesota'
winning streak."
Well, it's a sure sign that spring
practice is on all over the country
when coacnos start making pre
dictions. Coach Sutherland may
think he is pulling the old gag of
sol toning up his opponents c-eioie
the game conies around, but those
in there now will tell you that Ne-
braska will have to be extra salty
!to rake Minnesota and Pittsburgh
over the coals this year.

Numhers don't really mean a

i Out of the hundred that turn

that will Ptick and brancn out
into real players.
In his opening talk to tne
team Monday, Bible stressed the
point of regular attendance and
the divideims it would pay la-
If all those fellows that claim
"they never had a chance" would
"look over their records many
would find that they weren't at
nrrtiee often enoueh to be rec
ognized. After all, coaches
shouldn't be expected to put a
man in the game on a Saturday
that doesn't come out to prac
tice more than two practice pe
riods a week.
With all the newly appointed
football managers going around
their husiness with that calm and
collected look it is amusing to
watch those freshmen and sopho
mores that are trying to work
their way up. If Coach Bible or
Lyman call for a football there is
a rush for the ball sack that
threatens to kill anyone in their
way. "Do or die in the attempt"
seems to be their motto.
From the Associated press we
learn that Missouri got away to
a flying start with their spring
practice when the gods of
weather smiled down and gave
them a clear day. Seventy men
reported the first day and many
more are expected. There is an
entirely different attitude to
ward football in Missouri now
and it will show in their team.
Coach Don Faurot, who is start
ing his second vear with the Ti
gers, limited liis first drill to
conditioning and fundamentals.

position well in hand. Charlie

center spot, with Bill Anderson
still in the backfield.

spring and it looks like there will

play. Because the basketball

candidates for the end positions.
