No longer do people give us
those wary looks, ateer clear of us
day after day, point at us with
smckeiing countenances, and tell
us we are crazy for what we said
about Pitts

further- Arnold !vln,
more said that we didn't believe
that our home grown boys tender
ly aging in the vicinity of twenty
should associate with "ruffians" of
the Pennsylvania neighborhood.
As Mr. Vudelson a reader so
graciously told metropolitan sports
editors, "Amy Levin hit the nail
on the head."
Perhaps this sheet was not the
pheet that stirred the stench from
the Pitt athletic department, but
It appears as such. When the cam
paign was at its height, Pittsburgh
found the incriminating articles of
the Daily Nebraskan staring at
them from nearly every daily in
tne surrounding country.
It disturbed them to such an ex
tent that they pounded out a terse
letter to Omaha asking "what was
the big idea of saying those nasty
tnings about us."
When that letter was received
and printed, most of the damage
had been done and the flaming
controversy was promptly ex
tinguished. Now Yudelson asks,
as we have been wanting to,
'isn't this latest game of upset
the fruii basket in -the Pitt
athletic department substantia
tion to Arnie's anti-Panther cam
paigning?' Don Harrison, P. B. K. athletic
manager, recently talked himself

he suggested that he couldn't keep
the scarlet ink from the Pitt led
gers so long as Coach Jock Suther
land continued to purchase such
nign priced gridders. Sutherland
one of the greater football men
tors of the country, didn't like it.
He went to the board, as one of
the greater football mentors in the
country and objected
Recognizing him as one of the
greater football mentors of the
country, they made Harrison a
present of the bird.
Now, comes the revolution,
and the chancellor of the school
In the coal fields suggests that
there be less subsidization in the
future. To us, this strongly
hints that in the past there must
have been a purty heavy payroll
In the grid department. Isn't
this a repetition of what the
budding writers of this sheet said
months ago?
The dope is, there really were
Nebraskan stooges on the Pitt
bench; the stooges really did ex
tract choice quips on subsidization
from the subs; they really did
learn that most all the gridders
were former coal field workers and
more than a few of them, family
heads.
It was a case of where the Daily
Nebraskan yelled "wolf." but the
beast was there on the first holler.
P. S. Arnie Levin and this de
partment still think that the Army,
Navy or Dotre Dame would make
a mighty fine substitute for those
Panthers.
When it comes to athletic
morals, Nebraska is truer than
poetry; Pitt is Pro's.

CAPTURES FIRST IN
FROSH TRACK MEET
Mather Takes Three Top
Places to Get High
Individual Honors.
To Capt. Bob Kahler's Red
squad goes the honor of capturing
the first outdoor tri-color track
meet of the current season as it
registered 50 1-2 points Tuesday,
The Orange tracksters placed sec
ond with 27 1-2 points while Jim
Mather's Green finished in rear
position by virtue of amassing 25
scores.
High point man for the contest
was, as expeced, Jim Mather who
earned firsts in the 100 yard dash,
the 110 yard low hurdles and the
broad jump. The Arapahoe prodigy
did not exhibit the finesse in this
dual that he has been in the indoor
meets for his time was far from
causing smile furrows on Coach
Henry Schulte's visage. Jim's leap
of 22 feet 10 inches in the broad
jumping event was an indication
that he as last is beginning to hit
his stride in this event.
Kahler Takes High Jump,
Bob Kahler obtained his best
high jump mark of the season
in this meet as he skimmed over
the bar at 6 feet 1 inch. In the
60 yard high hurdles, the Grand
Island athlete and Bob Griffin,
member of the Orange coterio,
finished in a dead heat in. the
clocking of 8.2 seconds.
Nathan Koetseroff, Red per

region, made off with a first in

tance in 5:11. Dwight Whittaker,
another member of the Red clan,
surprised his colleagues by abscon.

rather sharp features, took the j
rostrum after Professor Kesner's
discourse.
Reminiscingly, the Cincinnati
dean told the gathering of his
collegiate days at Nebraska uni
versity. "During my professional
days here a great depression had
descended upon Lincoln," said the
speaker, "and this town had been
rather boastful in calling itself
the 'Athens of the West.' The
university was at the center of the
town and suburbs were locations
of boys' and girls' schools."
The state during his times was
in financial straits and the uni
versity was hard up. "For my
year's work at Nebraska univer
sity I was given a salary of $800,
which sum was later increased to
$1,020," continued the dean. "We
were paid by warrants issued by
the state treasurer which could
be discounted by the canny uni
versity registrar, the only 'rich'
mar. on the instructional staff
then."
Past Notables.
Past notables in the teaching
realm at Nebraska were men
tioned by Dr. Moe. In a highly
emotional tone or voice, he said,
"I remember President McClain,
who lectured to us meek and
impecunious youngsters on living
riotous lives; the late Professor
Fling, then professor of European
history; Roscoe Pound, brother of
Dr. Louise Pound, and the Bessey
boys."
Changes in curriculums were
sharply assailed by the outstand
ing educator and physicist "Pe
riodically, faculties of the leading
universities and colleges become
angry because they think educa
tion is not doing its best duty," ex
claimed the former Nebraska pro
fessor. "So they meet in commit
tees to change the curriculum with
the result that the proposed
changes in the courses of studies
are more difficult to meet than
was the case prior to the altera
tions.
Scholars Bring Progress.
"We have almost made a fetish
of our education," said the convo
cation talker. "We have neglected
the emphasis on leaders and have
almost forgotten entirely that the

including the usual lineups, Dick

From Lincoln Journal. Adolph Lew-
andowski was busy last night re
newing old Husker acquaintances,
both spectators and players. The
ex-star of the Nebraska flank is
slight in stature and will take the
position of the smallest coach on
the staff. Since his departure from
this school he has acquired a bald
pate comparable to that of the de
parted Coach D. X. Bible.
"I've only known Lew two days,
and I haven't been here long my
self so I don't know what his du
ties will be," replied Biff to our
query on the new coach's official
title.

progress of the nation marches
only with the ideas of the scholar
or philosopher."
Education of the masses was ac
centuated by the visiting scholar
and scientist. "The educated masses
will move on, but how?" stressed
the speaker. "We need leaders to
guide these masses."
To put across several of his
points on education, he went on
to assert that education is "really
acquiring the best possible knowl
edge of the past thoughts and ac
tions and weighing them so as to
be useful in training our judgments
so that our lives may be wisely
and serenely led. Education is
knowing ourselves, having studied
deeply and having read Samuel
Johnson's history of manners and
not of dates. This I call education."
Think Past and Future.
His conception of a liberal uni
versity education was noted in his
statement, "We should go back to
the European idea of a university
and revive our memories of the
past and to form links between the
past and the future." He was of
the firm credence that if we fol
lowed this plan our colleges and
universities, which he alluded to
as being drab places where one
pretended to cram facts of knowl
edge in making preparations for
some pursuit In life, would be of
more value than they are at the
present time.

AMES, la., April 7 A squad
of 90 spring football candidates,
the largest at Iowa State College
in many years, is working out
daily under the direction of Coach
James J. Yeager.
The Cyclones have been drilling
on fundamentals during their first
week but Coach Yeager, preparing
for his first season as head coach,

C. MILLEflHElLES
Coach to Inspect Varsity
Prospects; Award
Medals.
The fourth annual all school
gymnastic meet will be staged at
7:30 Thursday, April 29, accord
ing to an announcement made to
day from Charles Miller's office.
Coach Miller, mentor of the
Husker gymnastic squad, stated
that the underlying purpose of the
meet is to have a chance to look
over the prospects for the varsity
team. Anyone interested, however,
may enter. No varsity letter win
ner, major or minor, nor anyone
who has won medals in previous
all school meets will not be eligible
for this contest. Thus, if a medal
has been won in previous years in
the horizontal bar then anyone
holding that medal could not enter
the horizontal bar in this meet,
but could enter any other meet.
Beginners May Report.
Those who are interested but
know nothing about the sport may
see Coach Miller on the coliseum
stage any afternoon between 4 and
6. Members of the varsity gymnas
tic team will also be on hand to
aid with the instruction of the
newcomers.
A gold medal will be awarded to
the athlete who collects the high
est number of points in the meet.
The usual medals will be given for
the first three places in each event.
The number of contestants ex
pected out for the meet is about
the same as reported last year. In
1936, 18 men went thru the paces
while the year before 28 entered
the meet.
Th list of events for the meet
will include the horizontal bars,
the parallel bars, the flying rings,
the side horse, tumbling and the
Indian clubs.
