"N" Awards Miplit
llevive Boxing Inlerenl.
By Ed Steevei.
F'or nights, now, we have toswul
sleeplessly on our pillow as we
tried to reach a concliiHlon an to
why this school does not give let
ters. the little white "N," for box
ing, We have tossed and tangled
ourselves In the bed clothing and
could only lull ourselves to slum
ber with a raw onion sandwich,
the situation was so perplexing
As has been said before, these
pros with the laced mittens who
punch and jab their bread and
butter out of their opponents
bodies, rank high in box office
appeal. Why then, if pro boxers
rank so high, do Husker leather
men sit so low? Why can't they
jnuster enough interest to warrant
the awarding of letters?
A letter, for the benefit of all
interested, Is a little chenile
symbol of attainment given to
all athlete of the department
except boxing. It gives an ath
lete an excuse for chest expand
ing; it gives proof that he has
been to college; It gives the fair
sex something to fondle; and It
gives the athlete an excuse to
wear the same sweater every
day; besides radiating jutt one
heck of a lot of satisfaction for
personal achievement. A slap on
the back to a boxer may be
gratifying, but It Is so tempo
rary! It is a cinch that our
young Husker pugilists .don't
just pick up the sport like an
old cigar butt. It takes years of
both training and practice. For
those who doubt the truth of
this, we recommend that they
start a bone picking test with
one of the team members and
see whose eyes get discolored.
For those badly hashed noses,
vegetable ears, and what have
you, we feel that a boxer is en
titled at least to that millinery
award.
As yet we have found no rea
son why it is the only sport here
at this school that lets its par
ticipants go through a season of
competition undecoratcd by the
"N." If there is any reason that
wo do not know, we would be
overly anxious to hear about it.
.
Continuing our mild gripe to the
athletic department, we hold up
golf as another example of under
publicized sport. Few people hear
of the Husker linksmen unless
they come through to win a con
ference or the like. We wonder
how many of you know the names
of the golf team. They are Jerry
Hunt, Gordon McEntyre. Gene
Zuspann, and Ralph Reed. They
In their "swat and kuss" realm do
as much for Huskerland as any
other minor sport, but the world
never hears about it.
However, golf cannot be ex
actly compared to boxing's lack
of recognition, for they do get
letters. Another factor in favor
of the fairway is that it is a na
tional game of play. It is the
dally of the dub, the fun of the
femmes and the exercise of the
executive. In other words, golf
is all the stuff that makes Jack
a dull boy. Like the old adage,
"nowadays a man has to get a
business to take his mind off
his golf."
This year's team is making
rapid strides under the coaching
hand of lanky Ed Newkirk, Coun
try club pro. They are matched
against Kansas State Friday and
Kansas U Saturday.

10 BATTLE JAYS
'Pa' Predicts Hardfought
Tussel as Men Prepare
for Trek South.
H a m p e r e d ' by unfavorable
weather the past week, 18 victory
minded Husker trackmen will de
part this noon by auto for Law
rence, Kas., where they will face
Coach Bill Hargiss' Kansas Jay
hawks tomorrow. Accompanying
them are Coach Henry F. Schulte;
his aides, Ed Weir and Harold
Petz. and Trainer A. C. Cornell.
Hoping to repeat last winter's
79-24 indoor dual victory over the
K. U. squad, Mentor Schulte has
nominated the following to take
the trip to Lawrence: Marvin
Plock, Les Pankonin, Dick Fischer,
Lloyd Caldwell, Bob Simmons, Al
Kuper, Paul Owen, Bob West,
Wilson Andrews, Fred Matteson,
John Brownlee, Eldon Frank, Bill
Gish, Bob Neumann, Ray Baxter,
Sam Francis, Bob Mills and
Charlie Brock.
Coach Schulte is of the firm
credence that there will be but
two points difference between the
, two teams at the conclusion or the
contest. Without making any
' guesses as to the number of points
the two teams will garner in the
440 yard dash, Mentor Schulte
gives each outfit 61 points. Such
soothsaying indicates that a nip
and tuck tussle is in the making
at Lawrence.
No Cinch.
"Theoretically, Kansas will take
the sprints, the pole vault and the
javelin," said the pessimistic
Husker coach. "However, we have
hopes of breaking into the scor
ing column for several points in
the dashes. Tomorrow's meet is
anything but a cinch for us."
There is an underlying reason
for Coach Schulte's lack of opti
mism for a triumph over the
Hargissmen. At last week's Drake
Relays, the K. U. track and field
squad placed second in the 880
yard relay; fifth in the 440 yard
relay, while Friedland and Shan
non placed fifth In the shot put
and high jump, respectively.
Richardson and Hardacre are
two sprinters whom Coach Schulte
avers will place in 1-2 order for
the Kansans. In the pole vault
there are Bird and Noble while
in the high jump Shannon, Well
hausen and Cox are dependable
point amassers. In the 220 yard
dash, Coach Bill Hargiss has Foy,
Richardson and Wiles.
Huskers in Shot.
Nebraska should take firsts in
the shot put and discus without
encountering any obstacles for
these events are well patrolled by
All-Amencan sam irancis. cam
has not yet received a setback
this year in either of these events.
With Fred Matteson and Wilson
Andrews entered In the mile and
two mile events, there is little pos
sibility that the Hawkers can earn
more than one point in either or
these races.

POMIAC TO STAR
WASHINGTON U.
IN SHOW TONIGHT
Coxswain Johnny Held, jr., all
America undergraduate of Pon
tlac's varsity show, will call his
strokes for the world champion
Huskies of the University of
Washington right on their campus
at Seattle this Friday at 10:30
E. D. S. T., over the red network
of the National Broadcasting com
pany. Although the makeup of the
crew hasn't been definitely se
lected by Coach Al Miller, It is
believed that when the Washing
ton boat rides out on the air
waves, the millions of radio spec
tators will hear Held barking his
orders to the concert band of
seventy-two members, who will
stroke this week's thirty minute
race with the clock; the men's
glee club; the girls' chorus in an
original song; the Pep swing
band; a group from the Pent
House theater in a comedy
sketch: a sophisticated violin trio;
the varsity quartette and the uni
versity symphony orchestra.
ceptor Schulte gave the Huskers
eight scores in the low hurdles.
Such figuring is not far fetched
when one takes into consideration
that such Scarlet and Cream stars
as Lloyd Cardwell, Bill Gish, Big
Six indoor conference hign nurcnes
king this year; and Eldon Frank
are signed up to exhibit their mer
chandise. Meet Records on "Spot."
Tomorrow both squads have
avowed to chalk up some new
Kansas-Nebraska meet records. In
diting on the possibility of new
meet marks, the Daily Kansas,
student paper at K. U., has in
dited the following about Sam
Francis: "Sam Francis gives
promise of being the outstanding
star, as he has been consistent
this year in putting the shot, and
throwing the discus for distances
better than the current meet rec
ords." The record for Kansas-Nebraska
meets in the shot is 51 feet 7
inches and was established by El
wyn Dees of Kansas in 1935. Ac
cording to Sam's past perfor
mances, this mark should topple.
Durisch holds the discus mark
with a peg of 144 feet 6 inches, the
Nebraskan having macie mis inng
in 1927. This record, too, Is very
likely to be jeopardized when Sam
steps into the ring and spins the
platter.
Bill Gish is aiming ror me mgn
hurdles meet record of 15.4 made
bv Trumble of Nebraska in 1928.
The pole vault mark of 13 feet
3-4 inches made by Ray Noble of
Kansas in 1936 should be erased.
Noble will be back this year and
intends to catapult several Inches
over the meet figures.

followed the Eskimo's diet, we
would spend fewer hours, if any
at all, listening to the "suffer-sym-phony"
of the dentist's drill on our
teeth.
This information comes from Dr.
L. M. Waugh, leader of Columbia
university's dental research party
in Alaska.
"We found natives with practi
cally perfect teeth, lacking in de
cay, so long as they lived in their
natural state, untouched by white
man, and ate their native diet,
which lacks sugar in its refined
form," he stated.
"When natives are subject to the
white man's diet, his teeth decay
and its causes are Identical in the
white man and the Eskimo when
the latter is subjected to the civi
lized diet."
If the white man wants to pre
serve his sound teeth, he should
substitute natural sugar for refined
sugar and sweets, suggested xjr.
