i s "I ii six DAILY NEBHASKAN FKIDAY, FEBKUAKY 10, 1939 Ames opens N U home swim season M (j vi 1 i : i , 1 ! 9L by June Bierbower Nebraska fans will see two of last year's Big Six swimming champs in action today as Eugene Armstrong and Captain George Haldeman perform for the Iowa State Cyclones. Haldeman, breast stroke champion and record hold er, has already bettered the mark he set last season in the confer ence meet. The Cyclones, who will be fa vored to win over Nebraska by virtue of a defeat of Gustavus Adolphus, conquerors of the Husk ers, will probably go on to win the Big Six meet here three weeks hence. Missouri doesn't have a team, while Kansas, Kansas State and Oklahoma have never pre sented sufficient strength to figure in the championship. The Sooners, tho, have built up swimming in terest down in Norman because of their new pool, and might come thru with a surprise or two. Huskers fans will see for the first time Ted Legate, sprint star, and Ralph Worden, diver, sopho mores who figured prominently in Nebraska scoring on the recent Minnesota trip. Iowa State has a new diver, LeRoy Carr, and sophomore 60 yard freestyler, Roger Adams, who have been fig uratively burning up the water for the Cyclones, so we shall see what we shall see. In tomorrow night's wrestling match, there's one thing certain, and that is that Iowa State, after Wednesday night's developments, will come into the meet with plenty of respect for the Huskers . . . Jim Knight's opponent, Ray Stone, is from Fort Dodge, home of All American Ed Bock, and from Ames publicity reports, he's about as tough as Bock . . . Knight, whose victory Wednesday gave him 115'2 points, looks well nigh invincible in this branch of the bushes, though. Harwin Dawson, despite prev ious reports, will be in Saturday's track meet against Kansas, altho he won't compete in his specialty, the broad jump. Dawson will en ter the 60 and the low hurdles. Return of Bob Morris to track wars should feature the Meet to morrow. Bob, you'll remember, was state high mile record holder until Gilbert Dodds broke his rec ord two years ago, and has an other year of competition. Illness kept him out last year, but Mor ris is bac k in shape now, and altho he is In medical school at Omaha, has been doing outside road work with boxer Bob Venner to keep in trim. Nebraska's first gymnastic meet will give Huskers a Jook at one of this section's best gym teams, the Minnesota Gophers, who boast a Big Ten champion, and a national collegiate runnemp. Incidentally, the first home triangular gymnas tic meet In history for Nebraska Is coming up soon. Colorado, Iowa U. and the Huskers will compete. Camp assignments made by military department Summer camp assignments for the regular army officers have been announced by the military department. On duty at Fort Crook, which opens July 15 for in fantry students, will be Majors J. U. Ayotte, J. A. Shaw and S. J. Meyers. Fort Riley, Kas., opening on July 22, will be the destination of field artillery and engineering students, with MaJ. W. 'R. Thllip and Capt. R. E. Cruse attending.
