SCHULTE NO
PESSIMIST
Track Coach Henry Schulte's
pessimism before the Big Six track
meet doesn't look so pessimistic
now that Missouri has been offi
cially crowned champion of the
circuit. "Pa" picked the Tigers
to win a long time before the
meet actually began, but nobody
would believe him. Even when
Bill Gish fell last Monday in hur
dle practice, no one was willing
to take Schulte's predictions.
Friday evening, the Nebraska
mentor said, that it looked like
Missouri by ' 10 points. This was
after the Tigers had qualified 18
men to the Husker's 16. Schulte
said then that a number of our
qualifiers were weak men and
could not be counted on for points.
When Chauncey Simpson, track
coach at Missouri, was informed
of Schulte's predictions he mere
ly laughed at the idea and said
that he had "heard that before."
Schulte was wrong, however, as
Missouri beat the Huskers by only
six points. Had Mills won the dis
cus and had not Al Kuper stubbed
his toe in the relay and a whole
lot of other "ifs," the meet could
have been tucked away.
Eldon Frank, hurdler and jave
lin tosser, put Nebraska back into
the running and at the same time
put himself out of commission.
The Huskers were trailing Mis
souri by a matter of one point
when the 220 yard low hurdles
were called. Frank won the event
putting the Huskers in the lead
as Missouri failed to score in this
event, but as he was taking the
last barrier he pulled a ligament
forcing him to high jump the hur
dle. He just barely made it to
the tape ahead of the field.
The battle between Charley
Mitchell and George Hofsess, both
of Kansas State, for supremacy
in the two mile run was a thriller.
After the first lap or two, Mitchell
set the pace with Hofsess only a
stride or two behind. As the last
lap was reached, Hofsess put on a
sprint in the back stretch and took
the lead from Mitchell, but as they
came into the home stretch, the
two mile king put on a spurt of
his own and beat Hofsess across
the tape by about a stride, Mitchell
broke the record for the event
when he turned in a time of 9:29.9,
just one-tenth of a second faster
than the 9:30 mark established by
Futman of Iowa State,
Lonesome John Munski of Mis
souri wasn't so lonesome yester
day afternoon in the 880 as he had
more company than he could stand
in the person of one Barrett of
Oklahoma. The day before in the
preliminaries, Gahan of Oklahoma
beat the Tiger but it was evident
that he was just putting .forth
enough effort to qualify.
Harwin Dawson, Nebraska's ace
broad jumper, was hard put to it
to keep Nebraska in second place
even after it was certain that the
Huskers would not be able to cap
ture the first spot. He finally
turned in a jump of 23' feet
inches to beat out Inch of Missouri.
The annual Home Economics tea

uate students along with other

son, Bitner, Jean Danielson, Qui
senberry, L. K. Stott, A. E. Bara
ger, and Altina Tullis.
ond. Putman set his record in
1930.
John Munski, much vaunted
Missouri sophomore middle dis
tance man, proved to be a dis
appointment. He was supposed
either to break or come very close
to Glenn Cunningham's mile rec
ord of 4:14.3, set up in 1932. He
had been under this mark several
times this season and was shooting
for a new mark. Instead he was
almost nine seconds over, finish
ing first in 4:23.2. In the half
mile, which he was also doped to
win, he finished second to Bar
rett of Oklahoma, who did the
distance in 1:53.8.
Eldon Frank chalked up 14
points to take individual scoring
honors. Nebraska's only entry in
the hurdles, he copped first in both
the high and low barriers. He
was second to Waldram in the
javelin, with a heave of 190 feet
4 inches. Approaching the last of
the low hurdles, Frank lost step
and sprained a ligament in his
leg.
Three men of the Husker squad
were competing in their last meet.
Another was on the sidelines with
a badly sprained shoulder which
kept him out of the meet.
Gish on Sidelines.
Gish's absence probably cost Ne
braska the crown. He has been one
of the conference's leading hur
dlers, and finished either first or
second in all dual meets this year.
Had he run, he could probably
have accounted for eight points,
which would have been enough to
push the Huskers up into first
place, two points ahead of Mis
souri.
Elmer Dohrmann faile ' in his
attempt to win his twelfth major
letter, as he was shut out in the
javelin. Dohrmann has received
"N's" for three years in football,
basketball ami baseball, and was
after his third in track. He has
been troubled with a sore throwing
arm since the California baseball
game.
Bob Simmons revenged himself
for an early season defeat in the
440 by Thim Finley of Oklahoma
by nosing out the Sooner in this
event, and in doing so he came
within two-tenths of a second of
the conference record, negotiating
the distance in 48.8, the best time
he has ever run.
M. U. Takes Early Lead.
Missouri took an early lead, and
was 12 points ahead of the Husk
ers with only six events left to go.
Frank s victory in the low hurdles,
in which the Tigers were shut out,
put Nebraska out in the lead, 40
to 39. Missouri came back with a
second, good for four tallies, in the
mile relay, in which the Husker
squad ran sixth. Both teams failed
to score in the pole vault, which
was divided among Iowa State,
K-State and Kansas.
The Tigers clinched the meet by
placing three men in the final
event, the broad jump, which was
taken by Harwin Dawson with a
leap of 23 feet 8 inches. Irick
of Missouri was second, Klamm
third and Slayton fifth, giving the
Tigers eight points to Nebraska's
five and making the final score
read: Missouri 51, Nebraska 45.
First places were evenly divided
among five teams, Iowa State be
ing the only team failing to regis
ter a single first. Nebraska led
with four, one by Simmons, two
by Frank, and one by Harwin
Dawson. Missouri, Oklahoma, Kaiv
sas State and Kansas had three
firsts apiece. There was a tie for
first between Bird of Kansas and
Ebright of Kansas State. The
best Iowa State could do was a
tie for third and fourth in the
pole vault. Byers and Sargent,
both Cyclones, cleared 12 feet 8
inches in the pole vault.

BiVIN FOUNDATION MAKES
ESSAY CONTEST AWARDS
Three Women Receive Prizes
In Annual Psychological
Writing Compet.
Three prizes for outstanding
papers dealing with some phase
of the relationship of emotion to
the mental health of the child were
awarded by a University of Ne
braska committee representing the
George Davis Bivin Foundation,
which institution made prize
money available this year in sev
eral schools over the country.
In the graduate division the first
prize was split because of the ex
cellence of the two following pa
pers: "Speech Problems and Con
structive Methods for Use with
Children" by Lucile Cypreansen,
Lincoln, who has been particularly
interested in speech correction
work, and "A Preliminary Inves
tigation of a Scale to Measure Self
Reliance in Pre-School Children"
written by Mrs. Ada Petrea Jor
gensen, Lincoln, of the psychology
department. Both winners received
a cash award of $20.
In the undergraduate competi
tion, a first prize of $15 was given
to Dorothy D. Nuetzman, Lincoln
senior in the agriculture college,
who submitted a paper on "A
Study of the Resistant Behavior
of Young Children."

Robert Wal
dram, lived up
to advance notices by heaving flic
spear out for a new record of 209

one and one-half inches to the old
mark of 208 feet, 11 inches set by
Paul Harrington of Kansas in
1934.
Mitchell Wins 2-Mile.
Running his last race in college
competition, Charley Mitchell, of
K-State, barely edged out his
teammate, Hofsess, to win the

mark held by Ray Putman of
Iowa State by one-tenth of a sec-
