D. X.'S NEW
JOB ISN'T EASY
Bible Dismisses
Longhorn Ciiplain
For Coining Year
By Ed Steevei.
D. X Bible is already having his
difficulties at Texas. It was an
nounced yesterday by the little dic
tator that his captain elect, Himer
Tippen, will be ineligible for the
coming year.
The rule is a tought break for
both Bible and Tippen. The latter
was one of the Longhorn stand
outs, but according to his memory
he played a little in the Oklahoma
game three years ago, thus can
celling all of his competition. The
action three years back .contribut
ed little more to Tippen than the
smell of sweat, but nevertheless
he Is out definitely.
Tippen announced the fact to
Bible himself. A new captain will
be announced tomorrow, according
to D. X.
Several things off the record
Including some vers vita reac
tions in the Jones din.
At the announcement of the
old major as headman over sta
dlumway, most of ut were
knocked to a sitting position and
that's covering a lot of territory
for some of us. Every Nebraska
fan was so busy reciting Wal
dorf, Schmidt, Bell, Thompson
and even Bierman that Jones
smacked us squarely with a re
sounding thud. But on the other
palm no one needs think that
Biff, himself took it standing
upl We can almost head the
coughing and the sputtering as
he was approached via phone.
It wasn't one of those cases
when asked he replied, "Sure, I
guess so."
Still another thought is this. We
have been worrying about whether
we of Huskerland should give
Jones the glad hand or the cold
finger. Yet, he paid the Scarlet
a high compliment by resigning
from something that he had
strlved for all his life, his army
commission.
As for the undecided salary of
the Jones boy it should be under
stood that the tax payer does not
fray his change pocket on coach
ing expt-nses. but only the foot
ball going public. All football ex
penses are taken from the foot
ball receipts.
It is the understanding until
a bebttcr one comes along that
Jones is coming under an identi
cal arrangement as that which
Bible came. That is, $10,000 the
first year; $11,000 the second, and
$12,000 the third. It seems like
a contract as full of flaws as it
is money of so. Think of his salary
in 1939 even in the face of a losing
eleven.

OF BIFFS SALARY
New Director Completing
Final Arrangements in
Oklahoma City.
By Ed Steeves.
Major Lawrence McCeney
"Biff" Jones, Nebraska's surprise
coach and athletic director will
move Into town Feb. 20 to take
over his new duties In Lincoln.
He is now sojourning in Okla
homa City and will make his for
mal resignation to the University
of Oklahoma sometime before Feb.
19. Jones baa already handed in
the final papers to the United
States army in order that his
position as Husker mentor be
legal.
Like a bolt of lightning from
above, Biff Jones was selected by
the secretive athletic board of
control Thursday Jan. 28. A
special meeting was called late on
that day, at which the board of
regents sanctioned the selection.
Salary Unknown.
Two things still remain slight
mysteries in the Jones category.
They are the salary due the new
athletic master and the method of
sleuthing by which the board
found Biff. Due to his resignation
from Oklahoma In favor of a
commission in the United States
army, no one had any thought of
Jones as a coaching possibility.
No official announcement as to
the pecuniary output to the new
coach has been made, but there
are several floating understand
ings. One is that his salary is on
the graduated scale and the other
is that it is less than ten thousand
dollars. An announcement is ex
pected soon.

In coaching, Jones plays the old
Pop Warner type of football ac
companied by both aerial and
terrestial play. Primarily he en
dorses fundamentals as the maker
of teams. Another identifying fac
ulty of the new mentor is that of
developing every man on his
squad for action. He is a firm be

Has. Bright Record.
In sixteen years of football
coaching, Biff was grid pilot at
the West Point military academy
for eleven years, at Louisiana
State for three and at Oklahoma
for two. His percentage of wins
is .756 with the tallies ranking
59 wins and 19 losses. Ten of the
conflicts ended in draws.
Jones has met the Nebraskans
three times and crawled out the
squeezing end of the horn on the
Husker deal. With the Army he
defeated Nebraska in 1928 but lost
to them both years with the
Sooners.
Data gathered from various uni
versal sports authorities dub Jones
as one of the foremost figures of
the American gridiron. Not only
has he coached three of the best
elevens in the country, he has also
made his quota of contributions to
football aa an intercollegiate sport
For twenty years he has been
commissioned in the United States
army and resigned last week with
the rank of major.
Successful at Louisiana.

chooses light smoke for his throat
Lauritz Melchior says:
"The Hardest test I can give a ciga
rette is to try its effect on my throat
after hours of intense rehearsal. I've
found that a light smoke meets this
test. And so, although I am not a
constant smoker, I favor Lucky Strike
for the sake of my throat. And, ind
dentally, so does my wife. When we
go back to Europe we never forget to
take along a good supply of Luckies."

i.n independent survey was made recently

they smoke cigarettes, 87 stated they personally
prefer a light smoke.
Mr. Melchior verifies the wisdom of this pref
erence, and so do other leading artists of the radio,
stage, screen, and opera. Their voices are their
fortunes. That's why so many of them smoke
Luckies. You, too, can have the throat protection
