Daily Nebraskan Sponsors Safety Drive
SUNDAY, JANUARY 10, 1937.
LINCOLN POLICE
COOPERATE WITH
STUDENT PAPER
Chief Anderson Campaigns
For Cut in City
Death Toll.
'iThe trend is being reversed."
Closing its report for the year
that was the nation's worst from
the standpoint of traffic fatalities,
the National Safety council pre
dicted a decrease in the number of
automobile accidents in the com
ing year.
In conjunction with the fine
work of the council, the Daily Ne
braskan has received the support
of the Lincoln police department
in an editorial drive to stimulate
student interest in the realization
of the urgent need for careful
driving.
Arrange Articles.
Profiting by the experience of
the National Safety council which
has found that "when a community
becomes aroused at needless kill
ing on the streets, and when its
-drivers and pedestrians are suf
ficently trained, deaths and acci
dents are reduced amazingly," the
Daily Nebraskan will print a se
ries of articles written by Chief
Walter Anderson of the Lincoln
police.
Included in these articles will
be much of the information com
piled by the safety council which
has proved helpful in reducing the
death rates of many of the coun
try's leading cities thru educa
tional methods and intelligent law
enforcement procedure.
Organized for the purpose of
lessening the tremendous death
toll taken each year as a result
of careless pedestrians and auto
mobile drivers, the safety council
has for a number of years em
ployed practical experts to find
answers for a variety of conditions
that contribute to traffic tragedy.
"Never until this year," reads
the report compiled by Blair
Moody, experienced newspaper
man who has visited a number of
cities to make a comprehensive
survey of the subject, "did the ex
perts have the money to get the
message of those methods around.
Manufacturers Assist.
"With the funds received this
year from the Automobile Manu
facters' association and from other
sources, the new safety program
is beginning to have its effect. It
has financed the National Safety
council expanded program of edu
cation; it is backing the driver
training courses and the high
school driving courses of the
American Automobile association;
and it has financed a police of
ficer's training school at North
western university."
By adopting the National Safety
council's proved methods of re
ducing accidents, Kvanston, 111.,
reduced its number of automobile
fatalities from 23 in 1934 to 17 in
1935, giving It a death rate so low
that the city received the Na
tional Safety council's annual
award. During the first ten months
of 1930, New York, considered to
be the city with the heaviest traf
fic In the world, reduced substan
tially its computed accident rate
by giving the problem attention
and installing modern methods.

N. U. Takes Tigers
By Score of 31-22
Holding Missouri's quintet score
less during the first eleven min
utes of play and successfully stav
ing off a late tiger rally, Ne
braska's basketball team pasted
a 31 to 22 shellacking on their
Big Six foes at Solubia, Mo., last
night.
Led by Amen, Nebraska pulled
away to an early lead during the
first half. With four minutes of
the second quarter remaining, the
Huskers held a 11-0 advantage. At
this point the Tigers rallied and
with Brookfjeld, their rangy cen
ter, leading the attack they
evened the count twelve all at the
half.
Continuing their sensational ral
ly, Missouri took the lead early
in the second half. The Nebraska
hoopsters stifled the Tigers early
in the fourth period and held them
to two points in the last ten min
utes. With ten minutes to play
the Huskers began finding the
hoop and poured in ten points to
clinch the game.

TKIJ.S IDENTITY
OF TIMi; SCMBE
Rumors to the effect that Time,
weekly newsmagazine, sent a rep
resentative to the opening session
of the unicameral legislature, were
borne out Wednesday night when
it was learned Unit a Lincoln man
had been there in the interests of
that publication.
The Daily Nebraskan said Wed
nesday morning that it wus ru
mored Time was sending a repre
sentative but that he was not in
evidence. Now it develops that he
was present Incognito. A Daily
Nebraskan sleuth penetrated to
the mystery late Wednesday and
learned that John Faris, member
of the Lincoln Journal staff, had
been there to cover Time.
He said that most of his work
had been done In advance, how
ever, as the magazine had asked
him to wire last rninule informa
tion Monday, as it went to press
early in the week. The magazine
was interested in the activities of
Si;nntor George W. Norris and the
part that John P. Kenning, chair
man of the university political sci
ence department, played in draw
ing up the constitutional amend
ment. Another qutmliori regarded
purpose of the party circle, abol
ished In 1934. "Was the party cir
cle for the purpose of voting a
straight party ticket?" was asked.
Amen of the Huskers was high
point man for the affray with
six field goals and a free throw
for 13 points. Parsons, Nebras
ka's high point man in their first
11 games, added 7 points. Pete
Baker, game captain for Nebras
ka, was unable to set his sights
on the hoop and garnered a lone
point altho playing his usually
steady floor game.
Henderson and aTodd led the
Tigers' scoring with four points
apiece. The remainder of the
losers' tallies were scattered along
the entire lineup, no one player
being able to seriously threaten
the welfare of the Huskers.

WRESTLERS TO HOLD
Coach Adams Outlines Brisk
Workout in Prep for
Kansas Wildcats.
A horde of roaring Kansas State
Wildcat men will haunt the en
virons of the coliseum Jan. 16 for
a dual with the Huskers. In an
attempt to muzzle these Cats,
Coach Jerry Adams has outlined a
week of stiff workouts for his
Cornhuskers, commencing with
team tryouts Monday. Victors in
these trials will constitute the ag
gregation which is to face the
K-Staters.
First team men who will be
called upon to protect their varsity
berths at the Monday tests are
Freddy Webster, in the 118 lb. di
vision; Kay Larson, 135 pounder;
Don "Flash" Flasnick, 155 lbs.;
and Loren Simons, in the 175 lb.
class. Miibourn Knight, Lelland
Clair, Charles Miegel, William
Luke, Kd Saner, Keith Carter,
Jerry Adams, Darrell Bauder, Carl
Yost, Jack Hutcherson and Alex
Burleigh are the chief contenders
for posta now held by the varsity
contortionists.
Tomorrow Coach B. R. Patter
son will trundle eight Aggie tuss
lers onto a train and take a jaunt
to Columbia to meet the Tigers.
For this junket he has selected
eight performers, five of whom are
letter winners from last year. The
outcome of this embroglio is being
keenly watched by the Adainrnen
as very much can be learned of
the relative vis of the Tiger and
K-State representatives, both of
whom have bookings with the Ne
braskans. A sour note was struck at the
Manhattan camp when it became
known that Capt. Dale Duncan,
scintillating 135 pounder, would
not compete at Columbia because
of a recent mat burn Infection.
Darwin Berry, his understudy, will
attempt to subjugate the Bengal
bonebender in this class. Of the
eight men selected for the Mis
souri Junket, Curl Warner, 126
pounds; Darwin Berry, 135; F.rnie
Jessup, of the 155 pound class;
Walter Carleton, 165 pound bone
twister, and John Harrison, heavy
weight, are monogram winners
from last year.

former dean of the law school and
one time acting chancellor of the
university, died at his home in
Omaha late Saturday morning.
Knirn The Lincoln Journal
JUDGE HASTINGS.
Thought to be recovering from an
illness of several months, the
judge arose Saturday morning,
suffered a relapse, and died a
short time later. He was 83 years
old.
For 12 years Judge Hastings
served as head of the law school
and in 1918 during the World war

the bench in this section of the
country. He knew many languages
and was a wide reader of philosophy-
He came to Nebraska in 1876,

Chicago, from Illinois where ha
was born the son of a farmer
sheriff. A year later he Svas ad
mitted to the bar at Pleasant Hill

Three years later he was a con
gressional candidate for the same
party from tho first Nebraska
district. In 1890 he became county
attorney for Saline cdlinfy, and in
1891 a district judge at Wilbur.
He had served on the bench there
for eight years, when he went to
Lincoln to serve as court commis
sioner from 1901 to 1904.
In the same year that he left
his commissionership, he entered
the university as a professor of
law. He remained here for 16
years, ending his service with the
acting chancellorship position he
filled during the absence of Chan
cellor Samuel Avery, who was in

One reason for Pitt's amazing
shellacking of Washington in the
Rose Bowl was vouched for yes
terday by several Nebraska alumni
who returned from the west coast
and who have witnessed many big
time grid classics. They believed
that it was a sudden change in
tactics that rendered the Washing
ton Huskies more or less helpless.
Huskies' scouts brought back
charts of Pitt's "man-in-motion"
formations that threw Nebraska's
defense off center this past fall.
Washington drew up a defense in
tended to stop Marshall Goldberg
who if you remember last No
vember, was the featured "man-in-motion."
Surprise of surprises came to
Huskies on New Year's Day
when Pitt's steam roller offense
started tearing thru the center
of the Huskies' line with Full
back Frank Patrick carrying the
mail for great gains. Dum
founded, Washington altered its
defense to back up the line.
Then Pitt started the "man-in-motion"
plays around the
Washington flanks with Half
back Bobby LaRue lugging the
lemon while Goldberg blocked.
Washington was lost, a' ;snny
Jock Sutherland's strategy suc
ceeded in three touchdowns for
Pitt and none for Washington.
After the game was over, a Cali
fornia newspaper carried an in
terview with the Pitt squad
which was almost unanimous in
saying that Nebraska was a lot
tougher than Washington.
Unmindful of . the subzero
weather that harasses N. U. stu
dents, indoor track men are daily
working out in the gloomy atmo
sphere of the out-of-the-cold cin
derpath beneath Memorial stadium.
Back at the job of coaching Ne
braska's track hopefuls is aging
Henry F. Schulte "Pa" or "In
dian" to his intimates who is all
set to lead the Huskers to another
indoor championship in the Big
Six, and, perhaps, a duplication of
the 1936 outdoor track triumph.
Not many track candidates have
reported to Coach Schulte, but it
is the contention of the leonine
"grand old man of Husker ath
letics" that rigorous track prepa
rations will start when the ap
proaching semester examinations
are finished. '
Upset of the day was Bryan
"Bitsy" Grant's victory over
Don Budge, America's ranking
amateur tennis star, 7-5, 6-0, at
Coral Gables Saturday ... It
was the finals of the Miami Bilt
more tourney and the recall was
nearly as unexpected as Fred
Perry's triumphant entry Into
pro ranks when he outsmathed
Elly Vines.. The gold dust twins
have completed two matches of
a slated 60-odd exhibition tour
throughout the United States. . .
