A.A.U. officials, meeting in
Washington Friilay decided that
Lincoln would he the site of Uie
1939 outdoor track and field cham
pionship competition. Huskcr
land's foremost rival bidder was
San Francisco, whirh wanted to
stage the event in conjunction with
its World Fair.
Maybe the A. A. IT. heads
thought the fair would detract
from the importance and prestige
o( the meet, that perhaps people
would consider the meet only a bit
of the whole fair. In Lincoln, it's
the whole show with no competi
tion from anything hundreds of
milea around.
Next Tuesday will find some
250 Nebraska hif;h school senior
football players making the
rounds of Lincoln. The Lincoln
Junior Chamber of Commerce, in
staging its annual All-State High
School Football rally docs a great
service to the University. Those
high school football players who
perhaps realize they care for noth
ing but football see a little more
of the University, even though the
g't-together is primarily a foot
ball bull-session.
They learn, or they should, that
there is lot to the univer
sity besides football. Some of them
nalize that they must also get an
education If they want to go to
tollege, that football alone won't
to that for them.
Even though no trips to Morrill
ll or other arailemic cloisters
ire included on the program for
Tuesday, these boys still will not
be able to miss seeing thousands
of students going to classes, not
"Jinking about football, but think
er oout getting iher educations.
Football here is In reality, some
"MS extra-curricular, and not the
fnme function of the university.

exacting schedule this year.
Of the five lettermen last year,
only two are returning for compe
tition. Don Glass is not in school
this semester, Pete Kriescher will
not compete this year due to n
heavy class schedule, and Bill
Leask will not be eligible to com
pete after the first semester as he
will have the requirements for his
degree fulfilled. This leaves only
Hoy Proffitt and Gains Cadwell re

Able replacements from last

Don Seidel, who placed in the
meet; and Berl Kaufman, a new
man this year.

ready for competition is Ed Big

izes in the flying rings and tumb
ling. Injuries Bother Squads.

gymnasts already includes meets
here with the University of Minne
sota and the University of Iowa:
meets away with the University of
Colorado and Colorado State col
lege of education; and participa
tion In the Rocky Mountain A. A.
U. championships.
Of the team members who are
working out, Hoy Proffitt, who
participates in the flying rings,
parallel bars, tumbling, and the
side horse, has shown the most
promise. He has been on the side
lines the past week with a wrist
and arm injury sustained in a fall
from the rinc,s, hut will be in suit
again early this week.
Others who have shown up well
and the events they participate i"

Committee Sets Scene
Of Track, Field Event
In Memorial Stadium
The track and field committee
of the National A. A. U. at its
meeting in Washington Friilay
awarded the outdoor track and
field meet for 1939 to Lincoln. The
meet, which will be held at
Memorial stadium on the univer
sity campus was given to Lincoln
in preference to San Francisco
who sought it thru Fresno State
college as an attraction for its
World's fair.
The indoor championships were
retained by New York, the
women's outdoor track and field
went to the Connecticut associa
tion, the basketball tournament to
Denver for the fifth straight year,
and the boxing championship meet
to San Francisco.
The record committee at their
meeting recommended that Glenn
Cunningham's startling time of
4:04.4 in the mile be accepted as
an American record. .Because it
has received the backing of the
committee, its general acceptance
by the convention as a whole is
regarded as a mere formality..
For the second time the track
and field committee defeated a
proposal to supplant the metric
system now used with the linear
system of measurement.
