Squad to face opener
minus veteran; time
tests set for Saturday
With only nine school days re
maining before the opening dual
meet, Head Coach Ed Weir will
hold track time trials this Satur
day afternoon on the indoor track,
starting at 2 p. m. Kansas U. will
journey to the Husker indoor
track Saturday, Feb. 11, to open
the season.
The cinder squad has already
suffered a serious loss. Harwin
Dawson, veteran dash man and
broad jumper, and one of three
returning Big Six winners, punea
thA ligaments in his left knee, and
will likely be out ot tne Droaa

any performer who wishes to re

To net back to the subject, there
i talk about Pitt's joining the Big
Ten ,altho It's true the Panthers
are signed full for football mru
1942, and Jimmy Hagan has de
nied any Intention of wanting to
get into the league. Moreover,
Notre Dame has been following
Big Ten rules, regulations and rig
ggamarole to quite an extent for
some time.
You never can tell. tho. Maybe
Chicago does want to drop out of
the Big Ten, and maybe Pitt
wanted to get In. Anyhoo, tor
those Husker well wishers who
would like to see the Huskers in
the Western Conference Purity
Parade, there's Pitt loomina UD to
confront Nebraska, just like it
does on the second Saturday in
November when everyone around
nere is naving Hose bowi delu
sions. All thinirs considered, tho. it
does look like Pitt won't be in the
Big Ten not soon, anyway and
it lnnkq fiirMiprmnre like the nro-
fessional policy of Panther Hollow
has about seen Its day.
The Husker athletic depart
ment's sponsorship of an invita
tional high school baseball tourna
ment should be another boost to
Nebraska baseball at Nebraska
U in particular. First boost, of
course, is the new university dia
mond which now enables Husker
baseball teams to pratcice on the
campus, which brings the games
to where campusites may come to
see them without straining their
poor selves by walking one terrible
long half mile out to muny, and
which should make a freshman
team possible.
Legion baseball, especially in the
last few years, has made a rapid
rise in the state, and with the
nifty records in the last two years
of the Omaha McDevitts and Lin
