terday at Memorial stadium by set
ting the pace as the Huskers
scored 67' '2 points to win the Big
Six track and field championship.
One new record was written in
the books as Sam Francis threw

In helping his teammates retain
their '36 diadem, Cnrdy took in
dividual scoring honors by virtue

the discus. Jack Richardson of
Kansas was also a double winner,
taking the 100 yard dash in 10.1
and the 220 yard chase in 22

Simmons Surprises in Quarter.
The biggest surprise of the day
came in the 410 yard race as Bob
Simmons, Nebraska quarter miler,
amazed the 5,000 fans, coaches
and officials by turning in a first
in the time of 49.1. Matched
against such stars as John Cun
ningham of Iowa State and James
Jesson of Kansas State, the
Husker star was predicted to place
fourth at the best. Running the
mile chase in a dead heat of 4:22.9,
Wilson Andrews and Fred Matte
son, both of N. U., set a new Ne
braska varsity mark for this
event. The old record was held by
Glenn Funk in the recording of
4:28.
Lloyd Eberhardt of Kansas
State and Bob West of Nebraska
put on a spirited battle in the 880
yard amble with the former win
ning in the time of 1:54.4. It was

HUSKER GOLFERS GRAB
BIG SIXCHAMPiONSHIP
McEntire Wins Individual
Honors With 149 Score
Tor 36 Holes.
It was the end of an athletically
perfect day as the Husker golfers
walked to the Lincoln Country
club house late Saturday with an
other Big Six championship in
their pockets.
The Huskers finished the day's
play over their nearest rivals, Ok
lahoma, 612-620. Gordon McEntire,
Nebraska fairway ace, was medal
ist with a 149. Nipping close on
his heels were Ralph Reed, Ne
braska, and Simpson, Oklahoma,
who were tied with 150's.
Rounding the turn at noon, Reed
and Simpson led the field with a
tie count of 73 strokes apiece.
During the morning tests, the
Sooners were burdened with six
less strokes than the Huskers and
at the noon time halfway mark it
looked like an Oklahoma crown.
However, the post meridian play
found steady, well studied shots
bringing the Huskers slowly to the
front.

Numbers of the "Sombrero"
continued to be issued until 1907,
when the name was changed to
"The Cornhusker," which is an
amalgamation of the junior an
nual and the senior classbooks
which used to be issued by the
seniors alongside the junior an
nuals. With a total of nearly 40 pub
lications as its predecessors, the
1937 Cornhusker makes its ap
pearance, a successor to past an
nuals, but presenting, in its sev
eral entirely new features and in
its policy "to acclaim the activi
ties of the present rather than re
peat those of the past," a really
new type of publication, a prog
ress as definitely forward as the
flight of the Thunder Bird which
constitutes its theme.
