By Ed Stceves. Hoping soon to be the father of thp only quintet to rank with the Dionnes, Coach V. H. Browne is applying the final touches to his coming: basketball five. He is ipending all his afternoon sessions lidding; a tap of defense here and a touch of offense there. The December eleventh game with South Dakota leaves only two more shopping days till Vermil lion. Team Mugged. Last night the rapidly forming team had its photos taken in in dividual and group poses hy the local press. Decked out in full dress for the first time in what mieht be termed as a cltess re hearsal, the quintet gave off that varsity glow for the first time this season. Another thumbnail description of the new Husker cagers brings us to little Howard Baker, prob ably the most improved man on the squad. Baker is a two year varsity vet, but has never made the regular grade. This season, however, he has all the necessary grapples on a forward post. Baker is small, standing some five feet eleven inches, but he is fast, a rapid fire passer, and one of the deader shots of the squad. Baker's Last Stand. This will be his last year on the cage squad having spent his full three allotted years with the close of this. His prepping was clone in Grand Island high where he was one of the state's toppers. The other newcomer is one Bob Klliott a sophomore all-state from West Point, Neb. Elliott plays a forward and an apt one too. He is rangy and hottest on defensive on passes that were ju3t never meant to be bottled. His heighth! is some six feet two inches. A third man who has now cmched his post by vast improve ment is Harry Porenson, senior guard. The Hardy flash played in 1934 and 1935 as a center, but fills in nicely this year as the best floor man on the squad in Harvey Widman's vacant back court reg ions. These three along with Bob Par sons, outstanding Big Six guard, and Floyd Ebaugh, star center, prospects are stacking up like a palmed deck, with Browne wield ing a five ace hand. This lineup should prove no less adequate than the one of substi tute cagers that met the South Dakota coyotes last year and col lected a 48-27 bounty. Basket ball authorities point to the hori zon when describing the 1936-37 quintet and smile at the future with its prospects, but say noth ing of the still rough looking pres ent. South Dakota is supporting practically the same squad as last. They are tall and play a quick break offense, the same as Ne braska. ARGUERS GET SIDES I 0 TRYOUT FOR TEAM Competition Set for Dec. 15 As Nine Strive to Gain Four Places. Members of a debate squad to meet a California university team at Lincoln high school on Jan. 6, will be chosen following the try outs in Andrews hall, room 126, at 7:30 Tuesday evening, Dec. 15. Subject for the tryouts as well as for the contest with this visit ing school is "Resolvd: That Con gress should be empowered to fix minimum wages and maximum hours for industry." Drawings held to determine sides to be upheld by contestants in the tryouts resulted in the fol lowing debaters arguing in favor of the question: Orville Hubert, Ernest Wintroub, William Curtiss, Forrest Wilke, and Eugene Cur tiss. Negative side of the question will be upheld by Leonard Kreu ger, Bryce Smith, Byrle Shuck, and Charles Reilly. Four debaters will be chosen by the judges to compose the final team. Men will be selected on the basis of argumentative material and delivery. Each speaker will be allowed to talk for eigh min utes except the first affirmative which will open wih a five minute speech and follow the first neg ative debater with a four minute rebuttal. Any student wishing to try for a position on the team niBy reg ister with Prof. H. A. White, de bate coach, before Tuesday of next week. Iiasmuch as there are five confirmative debaters and only four negatives registered, the first additional entrant will be placed on the negative side. Any other new contestants will be ad ded in alternating order. Big Tom Stidhams was finally named athletic director and head football coach of the Oklahoma Sooners to succeed Major Law rence "Biff" Jones, after a long drawn out session of Oklahoma's athletic council. Stidhams, who is one-siy.teer.th Creek Indian, has been Jones' line coach for the past two years. What Jones started two years ago, the Warner system of football, will be carried on by Stidhams. Jones will end nine years of successful grid tutoring when Stidhams takes over the reins January 1, having estab lished fine records as coach of Army. Louisiana State and Okla homa. The Big Six regrets the loss of Jones who has been assigned to the command and general staff school at Fort Leavenworth, Kan sas. Stidhams, only thirty-one years old, played football under Dick Hanley at Haskell Indian in stitute in '25 and '26. "Pop" War ner once called Stidhams and his running mate, Tiny Roebuck, the two greatest tackles he'd ever seen. Now Stidhams weighs 250 pounds and stands ovpr six feet. A big man for a big job. "Wild Bill" Callihan certainly lived up to his nickname last week end. Along with Roy Man dary, "Wild Bill's" Grand Island high school grid mentor,- Calli han was out on the bed of the dry (as isual) Platte river. Sighting a coyote, former Hus ker Mandary let fly with a blast from a borrowed shotgun and wounded the critter in the head. Blinded, the coyote started mak ing tracks. Armed with a club, "Wild Bill" gave chase to the swiftly moving animal, finally ran him down and clubbed him to death. It won't be coyotes for "Wild Bill" to chase next fall, but if he can show D. X. Bible the speed he showed Roy Man dary (and the coyote), Grand Island's powerful runner may be carrying the mail' for Sam'l Francis in 1937. Another tribute was paid to Ne braska's Sam'l Francis the other day when scouts, coaches and crit ics engaged in professional foot ball gathered to pick an All Am erican eleven. At fullback, Sam'l. was picked by the pros, as a high ly desirable prospect for pro ball. But Sam'l has no intentions of turning pro after graduation. Busi ness is his intent. Seniors Lloyd Cardwell and Les McDonald aro thinking of playing pro football before swinging into the coaching racket. Mini's Prof. Frank G. Dickin son, who originated a complica ted rating system to rank the nation's top football teams listed the Golden Gophers as Amercia's number one eleven, despite a 6-0 loss to Northwestern. Minnesota, Louisiana State, Pittsburgh, Washington, Alabama, North western, Notre Dame, Santa Clara, Duke, Pennsylvania and. Nebraska, in the order listed, are Prof. Dickinson's ratings. Take 'em with a grain of salt. Aroused Iowa alumni's demands met the deaf ears of the Hawk eye athletic board who decided to retain Coach Ossie Solem for an other year. Hawkeyes have had much trouble this year, dropping a majority of their contests, but coming back to upset Temple 25 to 0. The squad had been split up be tween Coach Solem and Oze Sim mons, flashy colored back, who bickered all season long. Nebraska and Iowa resume relationship next fall on Nov. 20. Hawkeyes' 1937 captain will be Homer Harris, Ne gro end of Seattle, who was also elected as the most valuable man on the '30 squad. Compliments are due Lincoln's junior chamber of commerce who staged a successful innovation Tuesday an all state high school football rally. Weather conditions kept down the attendance, but those who did partake in the day long rally, enjoyed every moment of it. Nebraska officials didn't nlead with the prepsters to come to N. U.. but let them know that Nebraska's hi&h school graduates are always welcome to the state institution. A fine affair with noble intentions is the post-season rally which I hope becomes an an nual event.

Two of the fastest water polo games of recent years are sched uled to be played this evening in the coliseum tank as Alpha Tau Omega and Acacia tangle horns at 8:00, with Sigma Nu and Sigma Alpha Epsilon hitting the water a half hour later. Rollie Horney, able asistant to Intramural Director Harold Petz, declares that these are four of the finest teams he has seen com pete in Greek water polo of recent years. All four teams feature a brilliant defense and a hard driv ing offensive attack. Sigma Nu seems to have the edge in style and smoothness of play. On the other hand the Sig Alpha are no rank pushovers. El lin and Ludwig keep the goal area well in hand but in the play of Austin and Jones of the Sigma Nu's, these goalees will meet an attack that has proven fatal to no less than three worthy opponents, whereas the S. A. E.'s have but a lone win to their credit having advanced to the quarter-finals thru a gift game from the Delta. Both of these Sigma Nus are vet eran swimmers and take to this most strenuous of intramural games with no more difficulties man a fish transferred from one bowl to another. Austin in particu lar has shown particular adapta tion to the art of tagging the goal board with the ball and gar nering the extra point that ac companies this difficult task which must be accomplished with a host of opponents doing a cling ing ivy act around the would be scorers neck. In the only game in which the Sig Alph's have apeared, Cushing and Beachley have shown the best bit of work in the art of score production with varsity footballers riutcherson and Ellis backing them up with a cool passing at tack. Ellis has been especially ef fective in guarding the goal area where he is a power-house to get past. The A. T. O.-Acacia game is a toss-up. Comparative scores would indicate that both teams are en titled to the victory, which doesn't alleviate matters much. Acacia has shown a little better offense and has racked up more scores than their worthy opponents but on defense they lack the finesse of the A. T. O's. But in fighting thru to the semi's the H street lads have had the toughest row to hoe. Their two victims have been none other than the Phi Psi's, last years's winner, and the Phi Gams who took fourth place honors last season. With Smith guarding the goal and Sein lead ing the offense the Acacias intend to make it a long evening for their adversaries. Laughlin, Bushman, Davis, Da vidson, and Younger will lead the A. T. O. attack for the win which would automatically put them into the finals along with the winner of the first game on the menu, Laughlin, a consistent player, is a high scorer on his team and un tention from the opposition. Pet erson will guard goal behind the above forwards. Swimmers have been asked to attire themselves in the conven tional manner for the presentation of their skill, the affair being open to the public.

To Bauder went the honor of defeating an opponent in the quickest time, as he pinned Peter son in 52 seconds with a body chancery and half nelson. Both men entered the ring confident of a triumph, but after the two had locked arms, it was just a matter of few seconds to guess the victor.

Brock in Finals. Charley Brock, Cornhusker football pivotman, appeared in the role of a muscular bonebender, and started off with a triumph by pinning husky Johnson in 3:08 with a head chancery. To spur Charley on to victory, a handful of his football colleagues made their appearance at the ringside, lustily shouting incentive cries at him. Tomorrow Brock will meet tho winner of the Hutcherson Robertson match for championship laurels in the heavyweight class. Keith Carter, scrappy 145 pounder, disposed of his two ad versaries by the fall method. Schlosberg, first to tangle with him, was brushed aside after four minutes of the match had elapsed, being a victim of a chancery and bar arm hold. Taking a short rest, Carter took on Heacock and put his shoulders to the mat cover in little over two minutes by us ing a half nelson.
