There is always an idea float
ing around or a movement" under
way which is badly in need of a
sponsor. It seems that Barney Old
field, pinch hitting for John Bent
ley in the "Gernle" day before yes
terday, became the father of an
idea about pep organizations on
this campus. Oldficld's brain-child
was a good one, but the need for
the injection of pey into the "pep"
organizations was definitely
pointed out by one Mise Betty
Stecker in far off ..California. Her
article which appeared in the
Daily Californian was reprinted be
tween these rules several weeks
ago.
It is immaterial, now, who orig
inated the idea that the pepsters
lacked a little ump, for the main
point is that the condition exists.
Oldfiecld mentioned the fact that
any high school picked at random
could out yell the Husker cheering
section. To prove the prep school
enthusiasts talked it up plenty, the
Journal columnist cited the Jack
son-Lincoln game which was held
in the coliseum last week. Four
thousand high school kids actually
outcheered the huge Nebraska
crowd which usually numbers
close to 7,000.
It is extremely likely that one
of the underlying reasons the tra
ditional game between the two
schools was moved to the coliseum
Is that the crowd made so much
noise at the Jackson gym that of
ficials had a difficult task making
their whistles heard above the din.
Oldfield closes with this very
pointed observation:
Up to now Nebraska's pep ac
tivity has been the bench warm
ing kind. It certainly is not very
inspiring or ahowmanly to see
an occasional red sweatered
male or female come dragging
into the cheering section before
game time like a WPA worker
on the way to dig a ditch.
Saturday night affords the last
chance for the cheering section to
redeem itself at the basketball
games. We suppose that with the
end of the basketball season the
organizations will fold up, if some
thing that has collapsed can fold.
In the meantime the university's
most excellent track team, the
baseball squad, the swimming
team all labor thru their respec
tive schedules without the help of
a cheering section. Anyone who
has participated in any of these
Nebraska basketeers will round
out their 1937-38 cage season
here tomorrow night when they
play the championship bound Jay
hawks of Kansas university.
The game will mark the last
appearance of four of the Husker's
mainstays for
the past two
years. Bob Par

years an out
standing guard
will turn in his
final perform

Jim Knight, 135, will lead the
Husker wrestling team in its last
dual meet of the season tonight
against the University of Iowa

standing man on the Nebraska
team this year, winning five of
his matches and losing but two.
Knight will meet Kingsbury of
Iowa university tonight. Kings
bury has defeated one of Knight's
younger brothers, and Jim will
seek to revenge this defeat tomor
row. So far this year. Knight has
defeated wrestlers from Kansas
State, Denver U., Colorado U. and
Colorado, and lost only to Matlon
of Minnesota, and Moore of Iowa
State Teachers.
Knight began his varsity wrest

a Kansas State man in 59 seconds.
Every since that first match, he

MANHATTAN, Kas., Feb. 23.
After facing the strong Missouri
indoor track team at Columbia
last weekend, the Kansas State
tracksters go to Lincoln this week
to meet the Cornhuskers, Big Six
indoor and outdoor champions, the
second dual of the season for both
teams. A week ago Saturday, the
Cornhuekers toyed with Kansas to
trounce the Jayhawks in an indoor
meet at Lincoln.

Nebraska will be strengthened

by the loss ot Wilson Andrews.
Plock injured his right knee while
