THE DAILY NEBRASKAN THREE BROwHE m maple coeihahd for '36-37 slate Enid of Grid Season Enables Head Basketball Coach to Start Work on Varsity Quint for Holiday Jaunt to East Coast Schools. By Ed Steeves. Last night Coach Harold Browne M as free for the first time to iievote his full time to Lis first iind major love, basketball. Returning from a brief grid tour to 1 he. west coast wilh the Hijr Bix football champions, whom lie helped coach, Browne is back to revive the reeling basketball at Nebraska. Last year the Husker five climbed from the con-o ference cellar to second spot and this year the dignitaries are aim- In? a notch hierher. This year the cagers will be of fered not only the tang of action, but also dessert of a holiday so journ to the east coast. The trip will include six games with some of the top notchers of the Atlantic territory. The formidable list in cludes dates with Loyola, Western Reserve, Cansius college, St. Thomas, Temple and George Washington. Between games the squad will have plenty of the see the world aspect, which all of the last year's squad so unanimously endorsed. In years past the Ne braska teams have taken several journeys west, but this will be the first to the east with exception of last spring's Olympic tryouts. Eight Veterans Back. It has been generally granted through the past decade that eastern maple carry faster and Stronger teams than those of any other locality. Eight veterans are on hand and last night for the first time this year they were all on hand. El mer Dohrmann, Paul Amen and Ernie White bolstered the pros pects when they returned from the grid trip with their coach. Dohrmann and Amen are letter men, while White is oniy a soph omore, but one that promises to keep up plenty of nipping at reg gular heels during the season. At Nebraska this year the cagers are growing tall like the corn should. There are better than a dozen six footers on the first squad alone. Some of the rangers are super men. First among the li.st is Larry Nelson t foot 7 inches, followed by Floyd Ebaugh 6 foot 6. Ebaugh was the regular pivot man last year making all conference honors and controlling the tip at least his share of the time all season. Heighth and to Spare. The entire first five as it stands now will have more height than any in the immediate past. Ebaugh, Parsons, Baker, Soren son, and Amen look best so far. On a par with them, however, are Bob Elliott, Ray Baxter. Leland Hale, and Al Wence. Baker will be one of the maple mites, but he stands a good head taller than last year's Whitaker. One of the most alluring facts concerning the new quintet is that all the lads are handymen. They can play their hand at any posi tion. There are few men that could not be inserted at any spot and serve in all phases. Practices this year have been of the ernest complex, getting down to per&piring scrimmages within two weeks of the checkout. The squad thus far has been polka dotted in brilliance. On some days the cords have fair ly smoked and on others the pro verbial lid was clapped upon the hoop. All scrimmages have been between the split squad and the si-ores have varied from 20 points victory for the varsity to slight de feat. However, all in all prospects look as polished now as they did at this date last year. It Is a time of unrest when the partial squad must practice without their foot ball teainrnntes. Tho Nebraska is aiming higher this year than before In basket ball hopes, so are th;ir opponents. Kansas university, the only con ference conqueror of the Huskers lust year, are especially maple minded. They have just taken a c LASSIFIED ADVERTISING 10c pR L,NE FOR SALE: Hingis bri-HMti"i tuxnU.

Alpha Tau Omega, Acacia and XI Psi Phi scored decisive wins in Tuesday night's Greek water polo competition with Sigma Al pha Epsilon advancing with them into the quarter finals by virtue of a forfeit. "Satchel" Lang again led the Zip's to victory as he and his five team-mates all but white washed the luckless Kappa Sigs who were saved from a shutout by a lone marker from the hand of Kady. On the offense the win ners rolled up 16 counters to walk off with the victory. ' Acacia tromped on Alpha Gam ma Rho by the one-sided score of 37-6 as Sain and Splcer lead the fire works for the governor's neighbors. In so doing Acacia brought their two game scoring total to 53 points and definitely established themselves as the fa vorites for the crown by virtue of this point gathering ability. Delta Upsilon was dropped from the running as the Alpha Tau Omega tanksters outscored them by 14-4. While A. T. O. did not show much adaptation for scoring, they succeeded in stopping the D. U. attack that rung up 24 counters in their initial game against the Phi Delts. Sigma Alpha Epsilon advanced to the quarter-finals via the chari ty route as Delta Tau Delta chose to forfeit its game with them. The forfeit score, 1-0 for the Sig Alphs. Tonight's games will bring two of the tournament favorites into action in the feature game as Phi Kappa Psi and Acacia meet in what should be one of the meets best encounters. The Phi Psi's rolled up 38 points in their first game as they beat Sigma Chi in a high scoring game. Both teams have excellent defenses and have snown exceptional ability to gath er in points. This game is sched uled for 9:30. The other game on this eve nings card brings Chi Phi and Alpha Tau Omega together in what appears on the surface to be a game of defense by both sides. Neither team has shown much ap titude for snagging points but both have performed to near per fection on the defensive. This game will be run off at 9:00. Winners of tonights games will advance to semi-finals along with the two winners of quarter-finals to be played Dec. 7.

Bible's 1936 Cornhusker eleven have made every All Big Six mythical team selected to date, which includes the selections of the Associated Press, United Press, Kansas City Star, Omaha World Herald, and, of course, Daily Nebraskan. Sam Francis and Lloyd Cardwell were nearly unanimously picked for fullback and right halfback, re spectively, while End Les Mc Donald and Tackle Fred Shirey beat out their rivals in every honorary eleven. Shirey, only a junior, is a repeater from last year. Sophomore Charley Brock placed on several of the first teams but the fact that Nebras ka's up and coming snapper-back is only a sophomore kept him off several of the mythical first strings. Guard Ken McGinnis was named on some first and some sec ond strings, while Ron Douglas, Johnny Howell, Virg Yelkin were on the honorable mention rolls. In short, Nebraska was very well represented among the post sea son elevens. Three outstanding seniors Sam Francis, Lloyd Cardwell and Les McDonald are due to receive invites to join the west team that perenlally battles the east on New Years Day. Don't be surprised to read soon that the Titt Panthers have been selected to meet the Washington Huskies for the Rose Bowl frac as. Members of the Washington squad have already voted to take on Pitt New Years Day after the colorful parade of roses.

The Huskies might take Alabam' with high hopes of avenging past losses, while Louisi ana presents another colorful eleven from the south. Pitt has never come back from the Rose Bowl with a victory. Their 1928 team lost to Stanford 7 to 6, Southern California smeared the Panthers 47 to 14 in 1930 and re peated three years later with a 35 to 0 white-washing. Evidenced by the Jays' 1936 sea son, K. U.'s football situation is in an alarming muddle. The Univer sity Daily Kansan came out Tues day with a front page "post mor tem" that listed four basic dis crepancies in existing football con ditions: "Many Big Six rules are archaic and inadequate to the present needs. The university'! athletic administration has at tempted to observe these out grown rules rigidly and in so doing has overburdened the players with scholastic and fi nancial responsibilities. "The system of direction and supervision of athletics in gen eral is unsatisfactory. "There are not enough mem bers on the coaching staff. "And, mainly as a result of the above and partially as a re sult of other lesser contributing factors, there is an Insufficiency of alumni support, a paucity of material, a lack of student spirit and co-operation." K. U. talk should be plentiful when the annual meeting of Big Six conference representatives convenes in Kansas State Friday.

U. in con ference competition is more than necessary to the other five schools, especially with the 1936-37 cage season creeping into the limelight again. K. U. is synonomous with basketball in Big Six compet, but basketball can't be everything. This department suggesls a bit of rejuvination in the K. U. athletic department, which is under the fine leadership of Dr. "Phog" Allen, but has a few failings that will probably be remedied this week end. Head Coach 0. X.

Selleck, direc tor of student activities, will represent the university at the conference conclave. 1937 foot ball officials will be selected and schedules In track, baseball, swimming, tennis, wrestling, gymnastics and golf for 1937 will be arranged. Nebraska's officials will be in for a long round of back slapping after the extremely successful 1936 grid season. P.eplacing George Veenker as head football coach at Iowa State, Jim Yeagger is the Big Six's youngest grid mandarin, but this honor may be short lived. Okla homa's athletic council has the task of picking a successor to Maj. Lawrence "Biff" Jones who has been transferred to service at Fort Leavenworth, Kas. Sooner officials are desirous of obtaining a "big name" coach and may select one of the many embryo mentors waiting for a big time job. The selection may not come until January.
