Last year, Browne attained the

That was not quite the unadulter

shared in the form of a co-championship
with Kansas. This year,
however, appears to be on the
verge of furnishing smilin' W. H.

Browne has enough seasoneJ

The fast breaking type of of

year which eliminates the center

the first and third periods will
speed this year's game up consid

before.
Two Positions Open.
There was still no indication as
to who would fill the two open
positions on the Husker lineup,
Coach Browne still feeling around
for possibilities. Lloyd Grimm has
been working out steadily for the
past week at the open guard po

competition. In the scramble for

half dozen sophomores are

winner last year, has been work

Lawrence Nelson, towering center-guard

letter two years ago, has not been
attending practice sessions and
will probably not be in the squad

trip to Columbus. Neison was
