By Ed Steevet.
Bill Warner, local agent for
the Missouri Pacific railway,
finally conies forth with the in
fallible corollary for Huskcr bas
ketball victories. No longer will
Coach W. H. Browne have to
worry about his team doing any
habit'ating in the short ends of the
victory horn.
It's simple, says Warner. All
that is necessary is for the Hus
lters to use his railroad when on
trips. In two years, the Scarlet
has, when they travelled via that
road, caesared every foe. This
year they have lost every foreign
game to which they went by an
other route.
Carrying the thing still farther,
every time the Missouri Pacific
has carried a Husker invader,
the said invader has been humbled.
The only trouble with the whole
setup, as wo see it, is to force the
visiting teams to hire these raild
for our victory plot.
Since the day his belated plane
landed in the city of capitols,
Bil'f Jones has been playing piggy
back to gentlemen of the press and
the hotter population. Everywhere
he has been given a rousing ova
tion with ail the clamor of Robert
Taylor in Car
rie Bell Ray
mond. T u e s d a y
night the Biff
r stated that
jlhe had the bent
time since his
arrival when he
attended the
meeting of the
'N" club. The

over to tlie Biffer. The latter
carried on with a worms eye view
of the style of gridding which he
intends to use at Huslicrlanrt.
"Spring practice," he thundered,
"will be called March 1, if the
weather permits. '
Jones stated his intentions of
playing the Warner system, ihe
same as the little colonel used,
the only "Major'- change will be
that of aerial stress. His enly
problem is to find a deadly
passer.
Following the banquet festivities,
the N clubbers mustered their

traditional pledge pounding. At

a little like he pulled his punch.
For good measure Yrlk;n asked
Doc. Clapp to swat him and this
turned out to be the dessert. Doc
took his back swing and there was
a sound of wood against wouldn't,
that made the Jones boy feM duly
initiated. Was his face red?
The boys hissed D. X. when he
pulled that one about "I've given
little and am taking away
much," for they knew that he
had given them something they
would never forget, especially
boys like Yelkin, Francis and
Cardwell who finish this year.
As an expression of appre
ciation they handed him a white
leatherbound document including

Beta Theta Pi Crashes Into
Semifinals by Downing
PiKA's 18-10.
Sigma Nu dominated the Greek
cage playoffs last night as their
entries in both class A and B
came thru with narrow 7 to 6 vic
tories on the coliseum maples.
Beta Theta Pi crashed into the
semifinals in class A while Alpha
Tau Omega kept pace with the
class B laurel seekers on the same
program.
Sigma Phi F.psilon was Sigma
Nu's first victim as they were
dropped by a loi point in a fast
battle of "wits. With Sigma Nu
leading 5-2 at the half, neither
team was able to bucket the ball
to any great extent during the fi
nal canto with three field goals
constituting the results of their
efforts. Goa's were apportioned
thruout the lineup, no one player
being able to change the score
board consistently.
Beta Theta Pi opened up a fast
offensive and downed Tl Kappa
Alpha IS to 10 as Tassle and Mc
Guire contacted for three goals
each. Rapp and Fischer contrib
uted a brace of baskets each for
the losers. Leading ( to 4 as the
second period got under way. the
Betas began hitting the hoop from
all angle i and iced the game.
ClaoS B semifinals saw Alpha
Tau Omega topple Alpha Gamma
Rho by the slim margin of 10 to
7 in a' well played game. Peterson
of the winners snagged four coun
ters while Heady of the losers took
high scoring honors for the af
fray with six points.
Continuing to win games and
only win them. Sigma Nu nosed
out Acacia 7 to 6 in the other semi
final affair. A goal and a free
throw apiece by Austin and Ram
sey furnished the necessary points
for the win. Adclseek scored the
bulk of Acacia's points as he
whisked the net for four points.
As a result of their semifinal
wins, Alpha Tau Omega will meet
Sigma Nu tomorrow night for the
B League honors. The game gets
under way at 8:30. Consolation

Attempts of Coach Jerry Adams
to secure a meet for his wrestlers
In place of the Kansas encounter
which was called off have failed
and the team will be Idle over the
weekend. The bonebenders leave
Wednesday night for the east coast
where they will grapple with the
teams of five schools on an eight
day road trip.
On Feb. 25 the Adamsmen will
arrive in Lancaster, Pa., where
they will meet Franklin and Mar
shall team, and the next day the
Huskers journey to Philadelphia
to pay a visit to Temple university.
Feb. 27 will find the team at An
napolis where they will level their
big guns at the navy.
Grapple Against Hawkeyes.
Sunday will be spent in travel
ing westward to Kent, O., to
match wits with the Kent Staters
March 1, and the next day the
Hawkeyes of the University of
Iowa will be host to the Scarlet
and Cream matmen.
The team Coach Adams will
take with him on the trip will
probably be the same as the one
he has used in previous meets with
the heavyweight berth the only
position still in doubt.
Although Charlie Brock dropped
his first bout with Missouri last
week it is likely that he will re
main in the lineup. Trial may be
held for the sophomore iron man
and Carl Yost, who held down the
heavy position until Brock dis
posed of him before the Tiger
meet. The Huskers will be meet
ing teams which wrestle under the
straight time rules instead of the
point system which is in vogue in
the Big Six conference.
Use of Point System,
Speed was injected into the
sport with the advent of the point
system. If the wrestler wins the
match by a decision his team is
credited with three points, but if
the wrestler wins through the fall
route then five markers ure
chalked up. Also in the match it
self each grappler Is awarded
pointa for each good performance
such as recovering from an op
ponent's hold or getting a good
hold on the opponent. Coach
Adams intends to drill his charges
on the older style, the time sys
tem, so that they will be familar
with it when they meet the east
ern schools the last of this month.
Conference Meet Soon.
Should the Huskers be success
ful in their eight day trip, they
will have a running start for the
annual Big Six championship
matches which will get under way
at the coliseum March 5 with the
finals March 6. The Adamsmen, as
well as the other Big Six teams
will be pointing for six Oklahoma
boncbenders who have won con
ference championships in the past.
If the good work of Milburn
Knight continues, he will probably
encounter Billy Carr, 118 pound
Sooner from Cushing, Okla., pres
ent loop champion in that weight.
Other champions from the oil
country to watch when the Big
Six meet comes here are D. C.
Mathews. 135; Bill Keas, 155; Port
Robertson, 165. 1934 champ; Mar
shall Word, 165, co-champ in last

weight division.

"I have smoked Luckies off and on ever
since my first term in the Senate 11 years
ago, and I have always enjoyed their
taste and the feeling of comfort and
safety a light smoke gives my throat. I
have done a great deal of public speak'
ing, on the floor of the Senate, over the
radio and at conferences. Necessarily
this results in a strain on the voice. So
naturally, in smoking, I have to think
of my throat and I have found that a
light smoke is suitable to my throat."
HON. GERALD P. NYE
U. S. SENATOR FROM NORTH DAKOTA
In a recent independent survey, an over
whelming majority of lawyers, doctors, lecturers,
scientists, etc, who said they smoked cigarettes, ex
pressed their personal preference for a light smoke
Senator Nye's statement verifies the wisdom
of this preference and so do leading artists of
radio, stage, screen and opera, whose voices are
their fortunes, and who choose Luckies, a light
smoke. You, too, can have the throat protection
of Luckies a light smoke, free of certain harsh
irritants removed by the exclusive process "It's
Toasted". Luckies are gentle on your throat.
