Pomona College out in Cali
fornia lays claim to the smartest
college basketball team in the
country. Seven members of the
squad of nine have won a total of
$3,390 in scholarships and special
awards real scholastic awards,
too, and not athletic free rides.
Dave Bell, senior center on the
team, has never paid a cent of tui
tion, his prizes, scholarships, etc.
amounting to a cool $1,350. Bell
last spring won the most prized
award on the campus a $250
award to the most outstanding
junior man. He's president of the
interfraternity council, too.
Jack Merritt, a little All Amer
ican in football, and a javelin
thrower in track, won a memorial
physics awa,rd of $350, and has
won $160 worth of other prizes.
Merritt, Pomona's coach's son, is
president of the senior class.,
Forwards I Crawford Thompson
and Dave Newhall, and Guard
John Dixon, each have won ;$150
prizes. Newhall is president of the
campus ski club. Then, trailing a
little, comes Robert Nicholl. He
once won $30 in an English examination.
Frosh track men
perform today
Dual meets to replace
tri-color competition
Initial freshman track meet of
the year will be held Friday after
noon, according to Head Coach Ed
Weir. The opening event is slated
to get under way at 4 p. m.
In place of the tricolor meets
formerly used for the incoming
track men, Weir will have only
two squads. He hopes that thi3
system will provide more well bal
anced competition. He plans to
have six entrants for each event
from each team.
The Husker coach is in dire need
for more freshman track aspi
rants. "I am sure that there is
more first year material in school
than has reported to me," he
stated. "I realize that it is rather
early for a track meet, but I feel
that that is the only way to get
the new men started. All equip
ment will be furnished to anyone
who wants to come out for track,
and any perfoi-mer who . shows
ability will be placed on one of the
dual-color teams."
Eugene "Red" Littler, red head
ed flash from Mitchell, is the most
promising of the freshman, said
Weir. He has turned in outstanding
times in the 50, 250 and 440 yard
dashes.

N U matmen tackle
strong Illinois team
The Husker mat team makes its
first home appearance of the sea
son tomorrow afternoon when it
faces the powerful Illinois aggre
gation. The Illini, undefeated so
far this year, are one of the strong
est wrestling teams of the coun
try. The meet will start at 3 p. m.
Coached by H. E. (Hek) Kenny,
Illinois placed second high, as a
team in the National Collegiate
meet last' spring. That Kenny's
team is not much weaker than
last year's outfit, is shown by it's
string of victories this year.
Iowa State, with a veteran squad
which trimmed the Minnesota
powerhouse 19-9, fell easy victim
to Illinois, scoring only three
points to 23 for the Illini. Coach
Kenny's team also scored an easy
victory over Iowa State Teachers,
conquerors of Cornell. Cornell, in
turn, dropped the Huskers 13 to
IOV2 in Nebraska's recent inva
sion of Iowa. Illinois is described
by Husker Coach Jerry Adam as
"one of the best teams ever to ap
pear in the Coliseum."
Jim Knight, mainstay of the
Huskers for the past three years
and undefeated in his six matches
so far this year, will captain the
Nebraska team. Deustchman, run
nerup in the nationals last year
and also undefeated this year, will
lead the Illini.
What promises to be the most
exciting match of the whole meet
is the one in which 128 pound
Knight will attempt to stretch his
victory string to seven straight.
Petry, Knight's opponent, also has
won all his matches this year and
will be out for his sixth consecu
tive win. Deustchman, who will
grapple at either 135 or 145 pounds
will meet either Bill Luke or Lee
Clare in another thriller.
Most of Nebraska's hopes lay in
the lower weights, where are tho
leading scorers of the Huskers mat
team. Kuska, Knight, Luke and
Clare have been the most out
standing Nebraska performers this
year. George Seeman, heavy
weight, looked good in holding
Wilbur Nead, of Iowa U. to a de
cision, thus breaking Nead's string
of seven successive falls. He will
be pitted against Sikich of Illinois.
Admission charges have been
set at 35 cents or a student activ
ity or knothole ticket.
The probable lineups for tomor
row's meet:
121 pounds: Kuska, Nebraska, Kellman,
Illinois
128 pounds: Knight, Nebraska, Petry. '
Illinois. ; ! .
136 pounds: Luke or Clare, Nebraska,

nois. 165 pounds: Fidler, Nebraska. Leverlck,
