A Lawyer Shows
'Em on the Track.
By Ed Steeves.
A lad by the name of Ray
jEums, a senior In law college
here at the. university, took to
his marks ayestcrday afternoon
in the century dash of the Intra
mural meet.
As he stretch
ed out his long
gears and
breezed down
the track In
a warm up,
Coach Indian
Schulte sucked
in his breath
as If he were
eating apa
ehelti. "Thera
HENRY SCHULTE. Is a runner!"
Lincoln Journal ' informed the
N. TJ. coach, half shouting, half
trembling. "Watch him; he'll
win."
He did. With the crack of the
pistol he started stroking the
track with those long legs of his
and paced the boys into the tape.
After the face the old coach hob
bled out to the track with all the
expectancy of a child after his
first lolly pop.
"Why don't you come out for
track, lad?" he queried.
"You know how law school Is,"
replied Burns.
Schulte nodded his head with
grief penned between the lines
in his brown. There was a run
ner, an expert, that he had
never seen run until yesterday.
He let him go after a long ses
sion of track patter, but he
watched him all the rest of the
afternoon.
"My that boy has a beautiful
track form," gruffly whined
Schulte as Burns left the field.
Burns, It was learned later, was
the medalist for two years in the
sprints In the Iowa State high
school meets a few years back.
He has played around with track
a little since then, but centered
his attention on academics.
Tuesday afternon we saw what
we would call a "wild hoss fly."
Lloyd the Cardwell was out on
some contraption called" a motor
bike by authorities. It was
nothing more
than a bike
with a small
motor replac
ing the pedals.

and down the

looked very much like he was
embracing himself with his stal
wart legs.
Oh there's no doubt about It;
he's a "Card."
Day by day, Elmer Dohrmann,
junior, is becoming the miracle
man of the Husker athletic realm.
Last year, after winning the ath
letic scholarship award as a
freshman, n e
snatched three
1 e 1 1 ers from
the athletic tie-
part ment. One
in football, one
i n basketball,
one in track,
and one in
baseball.
This week
the big Staple-
burster went to
the triangular
meet and cop
ped a second
in the -javelin.

and scampered to the diamond to
knock out two doubles and a
single for Wilbur Knight's nine.
On his first hit the ball bounded
over thu fence on the first bounce
and he could have easily have
stolen home, but was called back
to second.

Acacia Garners

. o
smVX orllRACKIN FACE
Track Meet.
Acacia thundered over track
and field in the preliminaries of
the intramural trackfest yester
day afternoon to nose out Sigma
Nu, the defending champions. Jim
Mather, frosh flash and Acacia,
burned Kp the cinders for indi
vidual honors with four blue
ribbons.
Last year's champs, the Sigma
Nu's placed seven men in the
first day of the annual meet,
Acacia landing eight. Finals of
the meet will ba run off 'this
afternoon at four o'clock in Me
morial stadium.
The pistol shot that started the
century dash opened the meet.
Mather ripped down the lane for
a first in bis heat and the best
time of 10:02. Winners of the
other two heats in the 100 yard
clash were Capron and Burns, both
Sigma Nu's.
Mather Wins 110 Yard.
The 110 yard lows were a sec
ond chapter to the first sprint
with Mather shooling across the
tape for a win in his heat, but
this time not the best time. Kah
ler, his fraternity brother and
frosh hurdler, coasted in victori
ous in the third heat with a 13.02.
Mouse, Kappa Sigma, won the
other heat with a 13.07.
In the 220 Mather's time was
again tops. This time a 23.1 net
ted him a first in the fastest heat.
Irwin, Phi Kappa Psi, copped
honors in the second heat.
Marks were comparatively low
in the broad jump division ex
cept for the first four qualifiers.
The winner was, of course, Mather
with a 21.1 3-4. Second, third, and
fourth men were the only others
to leap over the 20 foot mark.
Pfeiff Heaves Shot.
Shot put marks were also not
so torrid with Bill Pfeiff's 40 feet
10 1-0 standing high. Ten men
qualified, the last man getting
under the wire with a 32 foot 5
1-2 inch toss.
This afternoon's events will in
clude the finals of the events run
yesterday plus high jump and the
880 relay. Pole vault, high hurdles,
distance, and the distance runs
are omitted from the schedule be
cause of the lack of qualified en
tries among the Greeks.
Aside from Acacia and Sigma
Nu, three other houses placed
high. They are Delta Upsilon, Sig
ma Phi Epsilon, and Phi Kappa
Psi.
Today decides Champ,
The outcome of this afternoon's
track meet spells the name of the
receiver of 1936-37 intramural
trophy. Should Acacia continue to
gorge herself with first places to
morrow and win the meet, she
should be the veritable all-sport
king of the year.

by students in the flood area. Allo
cation of 1106,460 has been made
to youthful flood sufferers and
$71,160 of this amount is ear
marked for student aid. These
funds are to enable high school
and college students to continue
their studies. The flood disaster
so seriously impaired their fami
lies' resources, in many instances,
that without outside help they
would have had to quit school.
More than $38,000 will go to col
lege students and J32.910 to stu

We didn't think they want in for
it anymore, but it looks like they
still do.

meet with the
Jacobmen last
year at Norman,
the Schultemen
tripped the Sooners 71 1-2 to 59 1-2
and in doing so cracked and tied
six Nebraska-Oklahoma dual
meet marks. Paced by Jake Jacob
sen, Standley Haight and Sam
Francis the Nebraskans captured
10 out of 15 possible firsts.
Stars Graduate.
However, Jacobsen and Haight
are no longer affiliated with the
Husker track roster and their serv
ices will be direfully missed in Fri
day's engagement. Jacobsen's
place is being filled bv Lloyd Card
well, Dick Fisher, Marvin Plock
and Les Pankonin. Altho these
sprinters are not quite as fast as
Jacobsen was, they are neverthe
less capable of turning in points
in the dashes.
Standley Haight specialized in
the hurdles, both high and low.
The gap left by his graduation has
been plugged by Eldon Frank,
Lloyd Cardwell and Bill Gish, Big
Six indoor conference high hurdles
king. In taking a first against the
Sooners last year in the hurdles
Haight turned in a clocking of
14.6. Against K. U, this season
Cardy won the high timbers in a
timing of 15.3.
Francis Is Missing.
Sam Francis will not participate
in this dual as he intends to ex
hibit his discus shot put efficiency
at the Fresno relays, which will
be staged Saturday at Fresno.
Calif. Sam'l has shown his wares
in these events at five meets and
several nationally famous relays
and in all these tourneys he has
been a twain victor. Last Satur
day at the triangular track meet
with K-State and Kansas, Sam
heaved the shot 52 feet 11 inches
for the best peg that he has earned
while wearing the colors of Ne
braska.
Sophomore Bob Mills has been
assigned the task of filling in
Sam's vacancy. The husky, strap
ping Lincolnite placed third in the
shot at the K-Stato tri-meet with
a fling of 45 feet 9 inches. At the
Drake relays Bob finished fourth
in the iron ball pegging event witn
a throw of 46 feet 9 1-2 inches. He
finished third in both the shot and
discus in a dual meet against
Kansas university at Lawrence
Champions'' In 1935.
Outdoor champions in 1935, the
Oklahomans have a potent person
nel this season and are anxious to
lay pitfalls into which they hope
the Huskers will fall. Liputian
Ed Toribio heads the Sooner
sprinters, and those who have seen
him in active portend that he will
rule the 100 yard dash after the
hullabaloo of the conference tour
nament has abated. Other Jacob
tutored stars who will be on deck
this Friday are Haskell, quarter
mile ace, and Red Nelson and El
mo Hewes, both hurdles perform
ers. Track addicts attending Fri
day's embroglio will witness sev
eral Husker runners attempting to
shatter varsity records. John
Brownlee and Fred Matteson will
be aiming for the two mile mark
of 9:39.8 set up in '33 by Jim
Storey and Bob West, an 880 yard
runner, and Wilson Andrews have
Intentions of lowering the 4:23.8
mark in the mile established by
Glenn Funk, who is now the ma
rine corps. Records in both of
these events are likely to be jeop
ardized as the mentioned Nebras
ka satellites leave the starting
blocks at the sound of the start
er's pistol.
It seems that Flora Peterson, a
coed at Wheaton college, Illinois,
saw Frederick's picture In a paper
and hurled a challenge at T. C. U.'s
Doc Jekyll:
"I saw your picture in the Chi
cago Tribune today," she wrote,
"and I challenge your title." She
enclosed her picture and finished
off Frederick with "I mny not be
beautiful, but 1 made the honor
roll! Did you?"

From Lincoln Journal
Here comes Bob Simmons, ace
sophomore quarter milt-r, steaming
down the track as he warms up
for the Big Six championships here
May 21 and 22.
The elongated distance running
youngster may be one of the near
ly extinct first year winners. His
time of 50 seconds will have to be
clipped a little at the corners to
place him in the big meet.
BAT OUT 7-5 VICTORY
E
Baker, Jacobson. George
Hit Leading Stride
For Huskers.
Nebraska sluggers batted out
five consecutive hits and scored
as many runs in a fifth inning
rally to come from behind in their
game with the hitherto undefeated
Oklahoma team yesterday and
then went on to ice the game with
a two run splurge in the eighth
for its only win in the three game
series.
Zoth, ace hurler for the three
time co-champions of the Big Six
loop, held the Husker hitters in
check until the fourth when he
eased out of a tight hole after two
men had singled.
The local boys broke loose in
the next frame. White, first up,
went down swinging, but Harris
Andrews, stocky hurler for Ne
braska, was fed four balls and
a free ticket to first. Jocobson then
singled, Andrews going to third
on the play. Eddie George, dapper
shortstop, doubled sending both
men home. Pete Baker followed
with a two bagger and George
scampered home. Amen drove a
hard liner into right for a single,
Baker scoring. Dohrmann doubled
sending Amen home. Oklahoma
had a men in the bull pen warm
ing up but Zoth tightened and
Harris and English flied out, but
not before five runners had crossed
the plate.
Error In Fifth.
Oklahoma had found Harris
Andrews for a run in each of the
first and second innings. Burtner,
leadoff man for the southerners,
walked, went all the way to third
on an infield out, and crossed, the
plate on a wild pitch. Twyman
walked in the second, stole second,
and scored on a single by the
pitcher.
A double by Burtner, a walk
to Monroe, a sacrifice by Brittain
and a single by Hunter, coupled
with Borman's error at the plate,
were good for two runs in the
fifth.
Following Nebraska's five run
orgy in the fifth to take the lead,
the Sooners came back to tie the
count in the sixth as Thomas
doubled to deep centerfield and
came home on Twyman's hit. This
finished the Sooner scoring.
lY. J . kcnui in i.iijiihii.
Nebraska's nine tallied in the ,
hi II I J - I ClnklL
eighth to take the lead and the
game as Amen worked Zoth for
a walk and scored as Dohrmann
doubled hard to left field. His
blow hopped over the barrier but
ground rules held the hit to a two
bagger. He scored as Klein singled
in his first time at the plate.
Schmadeke went in to hurl for the
Huskers in the eighth and retired
the visitors with a lone blow in
the final two cantos.
Baer at shortstop for the visitors
set some kind of a record when he
went the entire nine frames with
out a putout or an assist.
