PACE TTIREE LEYTOPS KN MEN, 4-2 THE miLY NKUKASKAN, WEDNESDAY, MAY IB. 1938 IBERI jfUT ! - TRAVELING BEARS fm DUMP NEBRASKA I'M THE IDENTIFICATION CARD, that Can't Identify I am the little Identification card that only sees the light of day whenever my student owner has to pay. My 2 by 4 size makes me plenty small, but this morn ing I stand ahead of them all. But yesterday was my big day, they poked me, they punched me, it paid, they say. Yes, I am the little Identifi cation card that you saw yes terday. Maybe you saw me at the faction center fraternity house. Perhaps you spied me at yesterday's election. Again, you might have seen me as I passed hands in front of yesterday's In efficient polls. Maybe you think you saw a whole lot, but com pared to what I set my eyes on, you don't stand a chance. Let me tell you about myself. CC I was born several months ago when my master paid his shillings to this great institution of higher learning. I always wanted to see what that master looked like but he would never put his picture next to my bosom. Time went on end I got out for a good stretcn Ing occasionally. My master and I went to the li brary once this year and I got pulled out by my ears. I stood on the counter for a minute or so. They were saying something but I couldn't understand them. You see, my master is an activity man and he was talking about Plato and student politics. I don't know that anyone can understand them. CC Then on Monday night, as I lay in hit back hip pocket, I heard tht queerest noises above my head. Again I thought: "Stu dent Politics.'' When the fog had cleared away I found that I was right. Some guy that doesn't give a damn about sticking hit head into enemy-making po litical machines was telling his fraternity brothert that he wanted me and all my brothers. I got stacked In a group with my brothers. Did we have a good bull session. We stayed In this guy's pocket more than half the night. I got to peek out only once. At that time they were taking torches away from each other and several pairs of fists were flying nearby. When I turned my head I heard a noite that tounded like the field artil lery was ualng shrapnel on the Phi Delt house. That was last night. My brothers and I stayed awake all night long. We hadn't seen each other for al most four months. Brothers came from every end of the campus for our unplanned reunion. We talked most of the night about being more Important that's what most all bodies talk about when they have a meeting. We decided that: Next year we want pictures of our own ers glued on our backs with some sort of a seal to show that we haven't been separated from that Picture. Next year we want to be Important in helping students to get good seats at the football sta dium by having our picture also on those tickets. CC Then, yesterday morning, the fatal hour came. My owner came for me early, as did a lot of my brother's ownert. Next I flaw a pretty, naive little girl who wanted my number. I was the first Uttle identification card to be used and since I had no pic ture this little girl decided that none of my brothers would need their pictures. That's the way It went all day. Next they punched a hole right on my five spot. My brothert said that tome of them didn't get punched until they saw that little girl two times. As I stayed at the polls all day, I would say that more than 80 boys used my brother cards and did not own them. I was astonish ed to see a member of one political faction pin a pledge button on a high school senior and have him vole. When members of the other faction contested, this poor little hlghschooler couldn't say a thing. I was amused at another Instance when contesters asked a wouldbe owner to sign his name like the name on the face was signed. He couldn't do It. We were both em barrassed. CC When night fell last evening, I had seen tht dirtiest, probably the mott oorrupt abuses of stu dent voting vr displayed by, namely, two political factions. I saw studintt endowed with the privilege of attendlna college lose their ffindshlp over fren zied muckraekery. I saw all tha dirty mess. Above all, I taw those members of tha Student council who said that t would have to have a picture and didn't enforce It. Yet, I am to blame. It all because I am an Identifica tion card and can't Identify. IN LAST FRACAS Huskers Lose in Belated Rally After Deadlock Throughout Tilt. Scoring two runs In their half of the tenth inning on a hit by McNeil and a wild pitch by Ne braska's third baseman, Eddie George, the California Bears de feated the Huskers, 4-2, in a ten Inning game of baseball, the laat for the scarlet this season. Nebraska's threat in their half of the tenth to again tie up the score, was dispelled when McNeil, left fielder for the bears, made a spectacular catch of Dohrmann's hard hit ball. George was on first base at the time as a result of a walk handed him by Priest, who went the entire route for the Bears. Borman went the ten frames for Nebraska. The game was tied up, 2 to 2, when California's Devaurs, center fielder, beat out a ground ball for an infield hit. He was forced out on second when Perry hit a roller down to the shortstop. McNeil drove out his second hit of the game and Perry went down to third. George threw the ball to second as McNeil went to second. The pitch was wild, allowing Per. ry to come home and McNeil to go to third. McNeil came home when Deuzbou filed out to Eng lish in left field. Flrpo flew out to English to retire the side. George received a walk to Initi ate Nebraska's half of the tenth Amen struck out. Dohrmann lined a hard hit ball into left field, but McNeil snagged the ball in a one handed catch. Harris hit a pop flv to the second baseman to end the eame. Final score, California 4, Nebraska. 2. Pitchers Stand Out. Both pitchers pitched a good game. Bill Priest, hurlcr for the Bears, allowed eight hits, one home run in the fifth by Paul Amen. No one was on base at the time. He struck out a total of eight Husker batters while Bor man was able to strike out but three of the Bears. Borman al lowed 12 hits and walked none. Priest walked two men, English in the second and George In the tenth. Amen, his home run with the sacks clear, and Borman, scored Nebraska's runs. California's runs were scored by McNeil and De vaurs, one each, and Perry two. Hits by Nebraska men were reg istered by Wilson, 1, George 2, Dohrmann 2, Amen 1, Sundstrom 1, and Borman 1. "Hook" Devaurs. centerficld, led the Bears In hitting honors, re ceiving three hits In five times at bat. Perry, McNeil and Rapp each tallied two of the team's total. Flrpo, Lombardl. and Davis, pinch- hltter in the ninth, eacn connected for one aafe flow apiece. California scored their runs in the fifth and the tenth inning, two in each. Nebraska tallied once In the fifth inning and again In the seventh to tie up the score, where It remained until California's part of the tenth. Game time was two hours and three minutes. Umpires were Muel ler on the bases and Gaughan at home nlate. The eame marked me nnaie oi the baseball season. George, Eng lish, Amen, Dohrmann, Andrews. 8undstrom, Borman, and Delos Johnson, reserve outfielder, played their last game for the Huskers. .M to. HUSKER WIN UNCERTAIN SCEsULTEffi!

Gish, Pankonin Out; Injuries Deplete Squad; Chance For Win 'Slight.' AS BIG SIX HEADLINERS Speculation is rampant as the hour for the opening of the annual Big Six track and field meet nears, One of the strongest teams which will be bidding for the loop crown will be Kansas State and the Wildcats may gain some val uable points in the stick events with Dick Hotchkiss and Harold Dodge likely to account for third and fourth place in the 120 highs and Hotchkiss taking a third or fourth place in the 220 lows. Charley Mitchell, the reigning champion In the two mile, may have a hard time retaining his crown Saturday. Teammate George Hofsett hat been beating the champ consistently in the last few meett. At the triangu lar affair at Lawrence In which K-State, Kantas and Nebraska participated, Hoftess won the event easily. Yesterday's baseball game with California had everything In It that anyone could wish in a ball game. It had blind um pires, good catches, bone-head plays, lots of hits, and not too many runs. AM In all the game was a good one and a thriller. Surprised California. The California boys were much perturbed at being held down to only two scores for sbout eight in nings after the scoring spree at Denver U. Saturday where they ran across 15 runs. Bill, the pitcher, was all fagged out after hurling the pill across for ten Innings and when he walked in to the bench after the Husker half of the ninth he de manded extra pay from Bear Coach Evans. The second baseman, whom the players called "Dlz" carried a nice hunk of beefsteak inside of hi glove. The boys got so hungry at one time that they threatened to produce a frying pan and fry the meat. Blind Umps? After that freak decision at first bate when Borman stepped on the first sack a full stride behind tht Bear runner, the Cal ifornia bench declared that Ne braska had a 10-man team with the umpirt holding down the other position. California got the benefit of one decltion when Wil ton tagged a Berkeley man at teoond and the ump called him safe. Lowell Englith, inttead of bat ting It down, tnagged a loul way over by the left fence al lowing another run to filter in. the Hutker left fielder wat com Ing at tuch a terrific tpeed that when he finally taw that the ball wat foul he could not ttop in time to let it go. Hutken Have "Good Team." Although California won. they declared that the Nebraska nine was a good club, especially the in field. Dow Wilson played a whale of a game at shortstop and in one Inning In particular accounted for three assists to Amen on the first sack. B'.ar Coach Evans said that the boys lacked a little spirit because if has been three weeks since fi nal examinations were completed out In California. He said that they start school out there about the middle of August thus account ing for the early closing time in the spring. This afternoon will be the last chance which Coach Schulte will have to polish up his Husker cln dermen for a defense of their con ference outdoor championship, which will be held here Friday and Saturday. Very little will be done today; a few of the men may re port for warm up drills, but most of them will be content with a shower and rub-down. Tomorrow the entire team will rest in order to be In top shape for the preliminaries of the con ference meet. The qualifying trials will be held Friday atfernoon, with the finals coming on Saturday , Nebraska's chances for repeat ing its victory of last year grew smaller and smaller as the time for the opening of the meet draws near, unexpected development of strength on the other conference squads, and injuries on the Husker team are the cause of this. Injuries Hamper Squad. Two of the Nebraska varsity men have injuries which seem bound to keep them out of action Friday. Elwood Pankonin, Coach Schulte's second best quarter miler, is still on the sidelines with an infected foot. Pankonin felt all right until a week ago yesterday, when his right foot became so sore that he had to use crutches. Only the night before, he had taken hard workout and was In fine shape. He still walks only with dif ficulty, and does not believe that he will be able to run Friday in the prelims. A doctor's examination of Bill Gish's right shoulder, which he se siously Injured when he took a bad spill Monday night, disclosed very bad sprain, but no broken bone as was at first feared. Unless his shoulder shows rapid improve ment, Gish will not be able to en ter the meet. Some ligaments were torn loose in the shoulder, and it is feared that they will not respond to treatment qluckly enough to give Gish the use of his arm by Friday. Gish, a senior, Is one of the two leading hurdlers in the conference. The other man, Nebraska's Eldon Frank, has competed along with Gish for three years, and they had hoped to finish up together by sweeping first and second in both the high and low barriers in tht conference meet. Had they been able to do this, It would have meant 18 points for Nebraska in these two events, but now it seems likely -that Schulte will get only ten of these much needed points Simmons in Doubt. Bob Simmons, coference 440 champion, has been forced to wear a brace to protect his stomach muscles, which have caused him considerable trouble lately. This is not expected to be serious, and Simmons is doped to place high in the quarter mile. Schulte is also counting on him for one lap of the mile relay. After taking a hard practice ses sion with the discus, Charley Brock complainted of a sore shoul der, and was ordered to lay off un til Friday. Ray Baxter, indoor high jump title holder, hurt his back in a fall during gym work about a week ago, and it is troubling him. Both Baxter and Brock, however, are expected to be ready by Fri day. The last freshman tri-color meet o fthe year will be held this after noon. It will be run off as a part of a dual telegraphic meet with the Minnesota frosh. In the first of these meets, held indoors, the Gopher yearlings walked off with a lop-sided victory. CYCLONE ATHLETES FINAL OF I Track, Tennis, Golf, Water Polo Men Finish Slates This Weekend.

Oklahoma and Missouri loom as the big threats In the Big Six track and field meet to be held Saturday, May 21. That Oklahoma la strong was decisively proven by her win over Kansas State Satur day by a score of 72 to 89. wmie Missouri placed herself in me lime light by defeating K. U. by a score of 924 to 38 ",i on the same day. Six dual meet records were shattered In the Oklahnma-K- 8tate meet. New lecords were es tablished in the shotput. mile re lay, and the 880 yard relay mark was tied by an O. U. team. John Munski of Missouri pro vided the sansatlon of the day In the MIssourfK.

Charges of double voting and unfairness reached the polls all day. The polls were handled by members of the holdover student council. Many charges were leveled at the registrar's office because of their laxity and mistakes In check ing the eligibility of student can didates. The name of four can didates were scratched from the ballots for the entire day. Two candidates charged that they lost many votes when their names were eliminated from the ballots for several hours yesterday morning. Athletics, was the leading all around hitter of the Bears altho three other regulars were ahead of him In batting averages. He had 34 hits in 100 times at bat for a .340 average, had batted in 35 runs, scored 40 times, and had stolen 18 bases. . The case of John Speicher, the Spauldlng Academy runner, who ran part of a half mile race at the high school track meet after he had lost one shoe, yet won, brings to mind a grade school track meet In the old home town. One big fel low, who ran and won nearly everything from the 100 yard dash to the shot put and back again, was running the half mile and lost his shoe when it came untied. He simply turned around and picked up the shoe, put it on, tied it, and was off again before any one could catch him, and won the race. Halsey Hall in the Minneapolis Tribune, tells of the time Ed Weir ran a hurdle race against an In dian pony. Ed led the horse for 40 yards, at which point he thought the race ended, but the tape had been moved up to 65 yards, and the horse overtook him. Phog, the Karetaker of the Kaw, chased the members of the Kansas State and Kansas U. tennis teams off the court during their latest for his basketball team. Milt meet, because 7i2 wanted the court Meier, K. U. sports editor, says thst's more evidence of why the Jayhawkers make a habit of win ning Big Six titles in basketball. AMES, la.. May 17.
