STILL UNDEFEATED
Cyclones Drop Latest Encounter to Missouri by Same
Margin That Bengals Lost to Nebraska;
Scarlet Centers on Invalid List.
BY ED STEEVES.
With the fresh wound of a 31-28
mutilation by Missouri still gap
ing, the Iowa State Cyclones will
limp into town tomorrow night to
do battle with Nebraska. The
game will present the antithesis
of conference ball with the Husk
ers bearing no defeats and the
Cyclones, no wins.
Both the locals and the Corn
Staters will be playing without
the services of some of their
squadmen, but Iowa'a losses are
more vital.
In spite of Coach Louis Menze's
many losses accompanied by no
wins, he still lauds his team per
sistently. Wednesday evening he
and his luckless quint lost their
most recent Big Six endeavor to
Missouri university by the same
margin that Missouri lost to Ne
braska. Thus by comparative
scores the Huskers should have
a hands down advantage on their
Invaders.
Unlike as Mush and Caviar,
A little farther back on the
march of time, the Cyclones
dropped a more decisive one to
Kansas State, suposedly a weaker
team aggregation than Missouri.
The tally of that tussle was 44-31
with Iowa trailing all the way.
Though Nebraska and Iowa are
as Incomparable as mush and
caviar In schedule they have many
like features of construction. Both
Menze and Browne have recently
discovered that they have in their
grasps one pair of fine forwards
apiece. In the case of tomorrow
night's visitors the discoveries are
Jack Flemming and Harry Rocsh
lau, who popped out of the field
with joyful suddenness. In the last
two Corn State games the newly
founds have been the trail blazers
in all departments of the game.
Against the Kaggies they collected
ten points each.
Baker, Amen Look Good.
Browne has been pleasantly
surprised by recently unveiling
two of the mast potent forwards
in many months. They are How
ard Baker and Paul Amen. Amen,
a junior and Olympic baseballer,
has all the speed and punch of a
star to be; and to be soon. Since
finding himself in the Tiger game
last week he has scintillated in
point garnering.
In the group that takes to the
maples at the starting whistle to
Nation's Athletic Directors
Taboo Open Subsidy Project
NEW YORK CITY. (ACP).
When it comes to making speeches,
the college athletic coaches and
directors take all prizes.
At their annual conclave here
a couple of weeks ago they broke
the silence that characterized
them during playing days and
harangued on a lot of things that
have been bothering coaches, fans
and players for a long time, and
then held several roasting sessions
that did not exclude the fellow
that foots the bill for it all, the
fan.
After hotel janitors had started
to clean up after the final sessions
of the conventions of the National
Collegiate Athletic association and
the American Football oCaches as
sociation, delegates sat down to
rest and recount highlights of the
meetings. Here's their summary:
Open Payment Suggested.
At the opening meeting of the
N. C. A. A., Dr. William L. Hughes,
associate professor of physical ed
ucation, Columbia university, sug
gested open payment of college
football players in order to end
"hypocrisy."
"What is the difference between
payment and non-payment of a
college athlete so long as he keeps
hia scholastic work up to the
proper standard and conducts him
self like a gentleman," he said.
Dr. J. N. Nichols, director of
athletics at Oberlln college, sug
gested professionalism for small
colleges but along a different
route. The chief points in his pro
gram are: The elimination of gate
receipts; the financing of athletics
in the same way in which other
college activities are financed; the
abolition of leagues and confer
ences; the matching oi' schools of
the same size; the establishment
of coaches on a full time basis and
the simplification of eligibility
rules.
Reject Open Professionalism.
In the final session, Prof. Z. G.
Clevenges of Indiana university
read the report of the committee
appointed last year to Investigate
the "influences adverse to the best
Interests of intercollegiate sport."
Speculators on open subsidy were
jarred by the committee's findings,
which embodied sharp rejection of
the open professional plan. The re
port declared that "reputable" col
leges would rather drop a sport
i

morrow night, a make-shift lineup
will be found on the Iowa half.
All of last year's stars that Menze
had, he lost due to something this
year. George Gibson, one of last
year's best guards is on the shelf
with illness. For this reason Fred
Poole, a forward, has been moved
to the rear- and Rocshlau fills in
the front line. Soon after, Maur
ice Johnson injured one of his
able legs, a mishap that will prob
ably keep him out of all action
against Nebraska. In his stead
another forward had to be altered.
Bob Blahnik ia patrolling John
son's territory.
The only man on the Iowa line
up who has plugged along in his
old position without annoyance is
Burton Thompson, string bean cen
ter. Nelson, Dohrmann Out.
Misfortune in the Scarlet camp
claimed two men. Larry Nelson is
now a mere civilian on cage nights
by doctors' orders. Elmer Dohr
man is on the inactive side of the
court by virtue of a serious back
sprain. Neither of these mishaps
causes stir in the starting lineup,
but they scramble the shock troops
a bit.
Both of the surrendered lads are
centers, thus leaving Browne with
only two makeshift pivot men,
neither of which is startlingly
tall.
Browne nominated Howard Bak
er, and Paul Amen, forwards;
Floyd Ebaugh; and Bob Parsons
and Harry Sorensen, guards to
start the Iowa fray. In the line of
a second combination Browne has
worried. His problem is not where
to get material, but where to put
them. Elliott, Kvonda, White and
Werner are all in forward togs.
Shock and Baxter fill in at guards
and Grimm, Hale, and Yelkin are
well matched guards.
The feature of the evening will
be a scoring dual between two hot
shot guards, Bob Parsons and
Fred Poole. Flemming will give
Amen a run for the chips in the
forward spots and Ebaugh is go
ing to have to touch heaven to
grab the tip from lanky Burt
Thompson.
The tipoff will be 8:00.

than sanction its becoming openly
professional.
The annual luncheon of the
Sportsmanship brotherhood given
in honor of Dean Frank W. Nicol
son of Wesleyan university turned
out to be an attack on football
fans. Dr. Robert Clotheir, presi
dents of Rutgers univtrsity, de
clared that the fans rather than
the players or coaches are the
cause of ills connected with the
game. "Too much of an unwhole
some stress has been placed on
victory," he said. "Intercollegiate
football is not purely a public spec
tacle, and if the people in the
stands would display as much
sportmanship as the boys down on
the field, the situation would cause
no alarm. It ia the spectators who
are to blame."
During the last half of the con
vention of the American Football
Coaches association, Coach Gus
Dorais, University of Detroit
chairman of the committee on pub
lic relations, stated that during
1935 more money was wagered on
football games than on horse races.
Keep Football on Square,
"When professional big time
gamblers interest themselves in the
results of our games, I don't need
to tell you what might happen,"
declared Dorais. "Football has al
ways been on the square and the
responsibility rests on us to see
that it continues that way."
Speaking on casualtiea In foot
ball for 1936. Prof. Floyd R. East
wood, New York university, point
ed out that 28 boys had been killed
playing football and only one in
competition. The deaths were di
vided as follows: high schools, 14;
sandlot, 11; athletic clubs, two, and
colleges one. Indirect casualties
were not tabulated in the figures.
Meanwhile to Philadelphia jour
neyed Pros. Robert Clotheir of
Rutgers university to tell a meet
ing of the Middle Atlantic States
Collegiate conference that athletes
should not be kept from participat
ing in sports because "they are
poor in this world's goods."
'As aoon aa posible let ua hope
that our collegea and universities
will put their athletics on the same
basis of control as the other edu
cational departments and will fi
nance them similarly with ade
quate endowmenta, free from the
economic necessity of victory."
In Tuscaloosa, Alabama, the
meeting of the Southeastern con
ference barred movies for scout
log and instructional purpose and
vetoed a proposal that each mem
ber of the conference should have
to play five lntra-league games
a aeaaon.

From Manhattan way, the Kan

the coliseum tomorrow night for
a match against Coach Jerry
Adams' rugged wrestlers. The duel,
the first of the season for Ne

Cyclone-Husker basketball game,
and fans attending the night's en

Nebraska camp when It was an
nounced that Loren Simons, who
has been kept from practice rounds
due to an injured knee, might be
in condition to tangle with the
Wilcats. Should Simons fail to
participate in the 175 pound class,
hia understudy, Carl Yost, all-university
mat champ in this group,
will replace him. Two victims of
the flu, Bill Luke and Ray Larson,
135 and 145 pounders, respectively,
have definitely recuperated and
are in the pink of shape for the

Coach Adams will probaby send

loud in denouncing the possibility
of losing Bible as athletic director
and head football coach.
Financial Inducement.
Coach Bible has maintained thru
out the flurry that has developed
because of Texas' proposal that he
is more than satisfied at Nebraska.
"But," he added, "such a financial
proposition would enable me, after
10 or so years, to sit on a hill and
watch the world go by." He was
45 in October and is the oldest
coach in the Big Six conference.
The salary of $25,000 per an
num would require Bible, should he
accept the Texas offer, to pay his
football staff out of this sum. Uni
versity of Texas is abounding in
wealth, royalties from oil on land
owned by the university, but this
money can be used only for build
ings. His net salary would be
around $18,000, it was estimated,
about $6,000 more than he gets as
Nebraska's athletic director and
head coach.
Coach Bible came to Nebraska
in 1929 from Texas A & M, altho
A & M offered to raise his salary
in a last minute attempt to retain
hia services. During his tenure
here he has won six Big Six foot
ball championships out of eight. At
A & M he coached the Farmers to
five Southwestern c o n f e rence
crowns during the 11 years he
spent there. Coach Bible first
started coaching at Mississippi
State in 1913 and went next to
Louisiana State in 1916. He served
In the U. S. air forces during the
World war.
Offers Turned Down.
During Coach Bible's nine years
he has perenially turned down of
fers from Big Ten, aouthwestern
and eastern colleges. Texas' over
tures to Bible have been the most
attractive he has ever received, but
whether he responds favorably to
the lucrative offer remains to be
seen.
If Coach Bible accept the offer
from the Austin institute, he will
forfeit hia membership on the na
tional rules committee which he
has served almost continually since
1922. Also If he goes, Texaa will
have to drop practicea of openly
scouting high achool standouts and
subsidizing grid players, a glaring
feature of the southwestern con
ference. Proselytlsm ia aomethlng that
Coach Bible will not and cannot
tolerate. He haa a "professional"
attitude toward football In which
subsidizing haa no part, and Texas
must desist from such practices if
Bible went to the Longhorn cam
pus. Holding a rank of professor, Bi
ble is a member of the faculty of
the university. He also has a seat
in the faculty senate. Should he
deride to coach in warmer Texas,
the board of regents and the ath
letic council would have to approve
of his resignation.

Saturday night, Nebraska opens
the "at home" conference play,
Iowa State providing the opposi
tion. Perhaps it would be appro
priate to mention what happened
when two other conference quinta
met last week. It was at Norman
and Oklahoma and Kansas were
battling for the lead in the Big Six
hoop league. Rabid Sooner fans,
intent upon cheering Oklahoma
Into victory and jeering Kansas
down to defeat, littered the hard
woods with cigar and cigarette
butts, heckled the Jayhawkera at
crucial momenta, and displayed a
great deal of unsportamanlike
conduct. In fact, one Sooner
rooter got so "het-up" when
Kansas finally won by two points,
that he attempted to take a poke
at one of the officials. A gallant
Sooner cageninn squelched a near
riot by tossing the aroused indi
vidual out of the fieldhouse.
Court competition in Nebraska's
coliseum will probably be as keen
as the Oklahoma-Kansas battle
royal. A suggestion that Corn
hunker patrons accept the unwrit
ten laws of good sportsmanship
while attending games here this
winter should not be met by deaf
ears. Sportsmanship ia a quality
that can reflect favorably ou
everyone, if spectators will re
member that a referee has only
two eyes, while about 10,000 eyes
are claimed by fault finding
watchers.
Iowa State's cage record has
been marred by losses to Kansas
State and Missouri. Missouri has
fallen before the enthusiastic
Cornhuskers, which makes Ne
braska better, on paper, than
Iowa State. This should mean
that the Cornhuskers will win Sat
urday night, but upsets are as
prevalent in basketball as in foot
ball. This writer prognosticates
a victory for Nebraska over the
Cyclones, even tho the Huskers
have never been seen in action.
The acid test will come Monday
night, however, when the Browne
men face a veteran Sooner outfit,
ranked second best in the confer
ence. Wednesday the Sooners beat
a tough rival in Oklahoma Aggies
30 to 24 and started concentrating
on Nebraska, another arch enemy
of the fast breaking pupils of
Hugh McDermott. Hazarding a
guess, Nebraska should take this
contest to indicate that the Corn
huskers are earnestly after a Big
Six basketball championship.
