to
Acacia is apparently headed for
another Greek intramural crown
as a checkup of the points gives
them a margin of 25 over their
nearest competitor, the Sigma Al
pha Epsilon lads. Acacia to date
has rolled up a first, second, ami
fourth place out of four events
for a total of 360 points.
Headed by Dick Smith, their
athletic manager, the Acacia's
have figured strongly in every
event so far. They have a first in
touch-football, a second in soccer,
and a fourth in water polo among
their souvenirs. The Sig Alphs
number a first in soccer, and a
second in water polo among their
accomplishments.
Three-Way Tie.
A full 120 points behind the
leaders Alpha Tau Omega, Phi
Kappa Psi, and Sigma Chi are
deadlocked in a three way tie for
third, fourth and fifth places. Of
these teams the A. T. O's. have a
first place under their belt, that
being in water polo, a sport that
has come to the fore during the
past few years and will undoubt
edly be listed as a major event
next year as against intermediate
this year.
The Phi Gams, winners of the
rifle shoot, trail these teams by
15 points as they have amassed
a total of 235 during competition

Mather Exhibits Ail-Around
Ability in Afternoon's
Practice Session.
Jim Mather, versatile freshman
athlete from Arapahoe, made yes
terday a red letter day as he held
the spotlight in the track workout
staged under the east stadium. A
jack of all trades and master of
all of them, kinky haired Mather
divided his time among several
field and track events. Following
a brisk calisthenics workout, he
jaunted around the indoor oval
several times, shoved the 16 pound
ball thru the ether for good dis
tances, pole vaulted nearly 12 feet,
and then called it quits by turning
in some creditable high jumping.
For the information of track en
thusiasts, Mather is also a broad
jumper of high estimation.
Eagerly looking forward to tneir
sophomore j'ear, several potent
frosh runners joined Coach Henry
Schulte's squad. Richard Gru

NATION'S SCRIBES
LOOK TO SCARLET
AS BIG SIX CHIP
Basketball Expected to Gain
Highest Popularity as
Fast Teams Debut.
By Ed Steeves.
Looking over the basketball
map of the United States, an un
official committee of sports scribes
placed a sure-thumb on Nebraska
university as the quintet to do a
Lochinvar out of the west. Last
year it was all Phog Allen and his
immortal Kansans, but only last
night they were given their sec
ond one on the chin by Bfiker
university.
Basketball, this group fore
casted, is taking arms in the front
trenches as "king'' football goes
over the top. It is estimated that
the maples should render a Garbo
box office as many new and faster
teams make their debut this year.
The rules of basketball, for yea.-s
impeifected, are now undergoing
the final sandpapering. Two
changes have been made, this year.
The first is the modification of
placing the ball in play after a
free throw and the second is dis
allowing any man to go for the
ball until one of the centers has
touched it at the tip.
Height Wanted.
These two alterations have
added speed to the game and les
sened body fouls. One major dif
ference it makes in the ultimate
outcome of a game is in the ad
vantage it offers to the aggrega
tion with the tallest center.
Many teams are supposedly sup
porting some of the "point a min
ute" brand of quints. Among
those named was Nebraska. Others
included were Purdue, Indiana,
Michigan, Northwestern, Illinois,
DePaul, Notre Dame, Loyola,
Utah, North Carolina, Tennessee,
Arkansas, Drake, Oklahoma A. A
M., and Creighton. All of the
above named are to romp home
with some sectional honors.
Sooners, Tigers Tough.
The statement that the Huskers
will romp through the Big Six
conference can be disputed by
both Oklahoma and Nebraska's
next foe, Missouri. Both are run
ning around the midwest with
clean bibs, but neither have played
extensive schedules. The Huskers
have lost five and won five, but
their experience against all kinds
of offense and rulings should put
them in their prime for some of
their older conference rivals.
Monday found the Nebraskans
playing on their last peg. The
long journey and the frequent
games found every squadman feel
ing like a dancer who had just
hiked home from a marathon.
None of the squad had the zip
of a champion, but Wednesday
found the fire springing back
into their eyes.
Ineligibility Threatens.
A five has just been formu
lated that clicks like a Western
Union office, but there are still
things to cope with, such as an
unsettled eligibility problem.
Baker, Amen and Hale are
merrily warring over that pair of
coveted forward posts which raises
the standards of the point and
speed departments. Dohrmann,
Yelkin, Parsons and Rorensen are
in a four-way scrap over the back
court patrol; thus the possibilities
of an improved and air tipht de
fense. The only snot on the
team that looks anything like "a
definite" is Floyd Kbangh, six
foot, five inch center. Ebaugh

was second high pivot man of the
conference last year and thus far
has handled his task in improved
style.
Huskers Confident.
Nebraskans are confident of a
victory Saturday evening when
they again take to the roads to
play Missouri, now undefeated.
Experience should spell this win.
Heretofore Coach Browne had
been priming the Husker pump
that it might soak the Kansas
Jayhawker with a deluge of re
venge, but the mighty Phog met
with a second calamity Tuesday
night to Baker U., 32-27. Now
the coaching staff looks to Okla
homa as the team to down in or
der to ride the conference crest.

HUSKER WRESTLERS
WILL STRUGGLE FOR
VOTY PLACEMENT
Adams to Stage Trials
In 175, 165 Lb.
Class.
Like yesterday's weather, the
Husker bonebenders semcd to be
about as cold as the proverbial
blonde's stare and attributed this
condition to the recent Christmas
holidays. Sensing this undesirable
phenomenon, Coach Jerry Adams
began immediately sending the
tusslers thru stiff practices. With
the Kansas State meet scheduled
for Jan. 16, every available minute
of rehearsing must be employed
to the best posible vantage, and
Mentor Adams is not allowing his
charges to tarry during the work
outs, whieh is an indication that
he is out to abscond with the Wild
cat's scalp.
Franks Is Threat.
Two more potential bone con
torters made their appearance yes
terday signifying their intentions
of making bids for the varsity
team. Perry Franks, football
tackle, joined the 155 pound roster
and George Shackelford, who
learned the ancient Greek diver
sity at Omaha North, entered the
145 lb. class.
Earl Luff, former Husker grap
pling luminary, and Bernard Fun
ken, who joined the asterisk group
by winning three major numerals
in this sport, lent Coach Adams
a helping hand by working out
with some of the neophytes. Don
Flasnick, 165 pounder from Omaha
North, went several practice peri
ods with his colleagues and per
formed to the utmost satisfaction
of the instructor. Jack Hutcherson,
chief contender for the heavy
weight post left vacant by the
graduation of Benno Funken;
Charles Miegel and Leland Clair,
champion and runnerup, respec
tively, in the 126 lb. division of
the '36 all-school grappling tour
ney; Carl Yost, 175 lb. champion
at the same tournament, and a
host of others went thru their
gaits yesterday.
According to Preceptor Adams,
team tryouts for the 165 and 175
lb. groups will be staged some
time this week. Varsity posts in
these divisons are occupied by let
ter winners from last season
Don Flasnick, in the 165 lb. divi
sion, and Loren Simons, in the 175
lb. class. A Chicagoan, Ned Ander
son, is making a serious bid for
Flasnick's seat, and nothing would
appease him more than to play
a trump card over the letter holder
in the form of a triumph. Carl
Yost, a husky chap, is the chief
threat to Simon's job.
Angered at being deprived of
romance, the men organized an
Osculation League to combat Ihe
resolute women. The leagues'
first step was to call a strike on
all dates.
