lises a mild form of rushing to
acquaint high school students with

the Sooner state. These men are
entertained at the "O" club ban

Next year the dinner will be staged
on the last night of the thirty
fifth annual Oklahoma interschol

how many of the 30 athletes will
attach their names to the roll

yard dashes, the high hurdles, the
440, the half mile, the mile run
the broad lump, the javelin, the
shot put and the pole vault are all

Once again the state high track
meet has rolled around, and with
it the dreams of how good Ne
braska's track team will be when,
or to be correct, would be if, all
the track stars would come to
Nebraska.
For Pa Schulte's 1938 track
team has exactly four boys who
were state champions in high
school, and one of them was
forced to share honors with four
other boys. Bob Mills won the
shot put In 1934, and Bill Ffeiff
wan the next two years. Jack
Doiid took the gold medal in the
1934 broad jump, and shared hon
ors in the pole vault with another
man, while Boh Ncuman was on
of five lads who cleared 11 feet
5 inches in the pole vault for the
highest mark of 1932's meet.
Though a number of other state
champions have enrovved here,
but never competed for the Husk
ers because of scholastic difficul
ties, the main factor In the dearth
of state winners here, is enrolment
elsewhere, despite the state uni
versity's fine work in creating
track interest thru home courc
relays and the pentathlon.
Freshmen who were Nebraska
state champions arc two: Bus
Knight, javelin winner in 39.15, and
K( Wibhels, who won the discus in
1936 and 1937. and the javelin in
1936, altho Vike Francis, Colorado
shot put champion last spring,
would have been Nebraska winner
had he remained in the state.

Dodds is attending a small college '.
in preparation for the ministry, so
the reason for his absence from
Husker togs is quite logical, but in !
most of the other cases Nebraska I
should have drawn the boys, who ,
are wasting their talents at some !
backwoods school, or who have
passed up Nebraska for an out of
state college. '
All of which shows two things: i
First, Nebraska isn't getting the
track material it deserves. Of
Ashfr, Cardwell, Trumhle,
the state's trackmen have not come
in the past few years.
Second, and very important:
Henry Sehulte is a GREAT track
roach. Although some state cham
pions have reached their peak in
high school, and some boys who
come here don't develop physically
until their college days, the fact
remains that Sehulte takes mate
rial, mediocre in many eases, and
develops championship track
teams. Boys whom he makes into
valuable, point winners probably
would never have done anything
under a less capable coach. So. if
by any quirk of fate, some high
school boy sees this dissertation
here's some advice if you want to
succeed in college track learn un
der Sehulte, and if you have any
natural ability you will.
