1937 BIG YEAR
f OR BIG ATHLETES,
BIG SPORTS.
As that little diapered lad popped
Into view a couple of night ago,
yclept 1938, we realized that once
fegain It was our duty to name our
elections for the year's outstand
ig performers In the sports world.
Usually, a sports commentator
Starts his reviewing dissertation
by saying that this has been a
great year for. athletics, that
there were few athletes that do
1 not deserve some mention, that
of course he has made some mis
takes In his choices, that compe
tition has ben especially strong.
We, In direct contempt to con
vention, will skip all that pref
ace. However, we do feel that
this has been a great year for
athletics, that there were few
athletes who do not deserve
tome mention, that we have
made some mistakes In our
choices, and that competition
has been especially strong.
Getting to the point, we might
fcay that never in the history of
epbrtsdom have we seen such a
year, such athletes, and such com
petition! Never has there been a
better element of true sportsman
ship, a true desire to win, a never-give-up
attitude. In short, we
think 1937 was the nuts for sports
History, or course, we know that
our selections may not agree with
oilier critics, but that is only be
cause of the fallibility of the hu
man race. Our . intentions were
sincere. If you were an athlete
and your name whs unduly left
from our lists, kindly mail your
name along with a slight engrav
ing fee of $20 and we will be only
too glad to include it in a supple
mentary list of outstanding com
petitors. Now here is the list of 1937
champs, but mind you, we might
be wrong for there were so many
from which to pick:
The champs:
Outstanding line plunger: Mrs.
Ophelia Jasper who plunged to
the bargain counter In two
thrusts at the September 1 clear
ance sales.
Babl.etball star: Willie
Schmultz who caught a severe
cold and dribbled all over the
bronx without being touched.
Baseball star: Mazle Glut
who was whistled at so much
from cars that she established a
new home run record.
Grid guard: Lena Gingster
who blocked more passes than
anyone in south Havelock.
Tennis: Pcrty Boy Al who
really has control over his
rackets.
Sprinters: Me who outran
every bill collector of 1937.
Sulky Jockey: Santa Claus
who was forced to trade In his
sleigh because of lack of snow
this year.
Rifle shoot: Johnnie Jones
who shot his mother, father, and
five sisters, in six shots.
Shot put: Professor Zilch
who can really sling it.

The Nebraska Cornhuskers took
a light workout in the university
coliseum yesterday after a holiday
basketball program which netted
them only one win in five games.
Traveling to Minneapolis on Dec.
20, the Husker quintet found the
Gophers a little too well seasoned
and fast. They dropped the tilt,
which was their second loss of the
season, by a score, of 33 to 28. The
Nebrasknns out scored the Go
phers 13 to 12 from the floor but
were outscored 9 to 2 on gift shots.

Battling a smooth functioning
Indiana Hoosier quintet in the sec
ond game of the season for the
Huskers, the Nebraskans managed
to stay out in the lead during most
of the game but lost after a per
sonal foul shot gave the Hoosiers a
1 point lead in the last four sec
onds of the same. The score was
43 to 42. With a 4 point lead and
only a little more than three min
utes left, the Huskers began stall
ing but lost the ball a couple of
times and Indiana converted the
mistakes inlo buckets to tie the
score. Then when it appeared that
the game would go overtime, ref
eree Carroll called a personal foul
on Grant Thomas, forward. An
dres, Indiana forward stepped
calmly to the foul line and dropped
in the winning point.

fraternity, and in Chi Phi. He has
been a reader for Prof. O. K.
Bouwsma and for Miss strong.
Flory is only 20 years old, a na
tive of Pawnee City.
"When I have received by A. B.
from Oxford, I plan to return to
America and teach philosophy,"
Flory declared. He admitted a
preference for teaching In a mid
western university. In his philoso
phy, he is an Idealist, following
Plato's school of thought. The
bachelor's degree, from Oxford will
be the equivalent of a master's
degree from an American Institu
tion, he declared.
The Rhodes scholarship contests
are conducted thru two elimina
tions. Flory, and Lyle O. Gill, also
of the university, were chosen to
represent Nebraska In the state
elimination. In the distiict com
petition, In which two representa
tives from each of six states take
part, Gill was dropped. Flory was
one of four chosen from this dis
trict. The United States Is divided
into eight districts.
Examinations to determine
Rhodes scholarship winners vary
to suit the individual. Since Flory's
particular study had been philoso
phy, he was especially quizzed on
that field. Other questions con
cerned English literature, current
events, and general toplcH.
Prize Catch Question.
The hoard of examiners asked
Flory several "catch" questions.
Most puzzling of these was the
one about the bookworm. A book
worm gets caught between the
cover and the first page of book
one of a three-volume set on a
shelf, Flory was told. If there arc
four inches of paper in each book
and each book cover is one-eighth
of an Inch thick, how many inches
will the bookworm have to eat
thru before he arrives at the last
cover of book three. The answer is
thnt he must eat all the way thru
volume two and thru only one
cover of volume one and one cover
of volume three besides.
Frank Crabill, Rhodes scholar
from Nebraska two years ago, and
fraternity brother of Flory in Chi
Phi, Is considering accepting a
third year of his scholar
present, in which case
Flory will study .together nt
