77 candidates
report as grid
drills open
Footballers run plays
beneath east stadium;
practice lasts six weeks
Seventy-seven grid hopefuls
made their 1939 debut yesterday
afternoon as the six weeks spring
practice got underway in the east
stadium.
h Coach Biff Jones put his charges
through a rigorous drill with the
heavy medicine ball before going
Into the fundamentals of the game.
y After a half hour of tossing the
' big pill around the Biffer took the
boys into closed session for a short
talk, and then dividing the squad
Into two teams, ran them through
a lengthy play-practice period to
brush them up on their play rou
tine.
Biff tests speed.
Testing the relative speed of his
gridders Major Jones ran them,
four or five at a time, 50 yards
Time for the distance varied be'
tween 5.7 and 6.1 seconds. This
of course was not an accurate
measure but close enough to give
an idea of the speed that can be
expected in the squad next fall.
Roy "Link" Lyman and Glenn
Presnell were the other members
of the coaching staff putting the
candidates through their paces.
Bill Pfeiff joined the coaching
staff as he put team members
through their setting up exercises.
W. H. Browne and Ed Weir, along
with Adolph Lewandowski, will
join the coaching crew as soon as
basketball and indoor track finish,
this week end.
Forms opposing teams.
For practice purposes the squad

called Harvard and the other Yale.

plater in the week.

Trvniphr Missouri and Kansas
play what is probably the most
important Big Six basketball
game of the season, and just as a
special attraction, were puiung
forth our choiceMissouri.
That seems to be a pretty popu
lar choice, what with- the Timers
playing at home, but Kansas' 59
to 45 victory over Oklahoma isn't
to be sneezed over, even tho the
Jayhawks had to extent tnem
selves for a three point win over
Nebraska two weeks ago at Law
rence, while the Tigers had an
easv time at Lincoln the follow
ing Saturday night.
Capt. John Lobsiger or Missouri,
who, in our humble opinion is as
good a player as there is in the
league, will, as usual, be carrying
the Tiger's main burden. Lobsiger,
steadiest player on the team, looks
like a cinch for all Big Six hon
ors, and if Clay Cooper or one of
the other Tiger forwards get hot
on those jump shots which spelled
the Huskers' doom, Missouri looks
like the winner.
New Yorkers are touting An
thony Maloney, Gotham high
school runner, as a second Leslie
MacMitchell.
Bob Kahler returns
to NU track squad
Return of Bob Kahler to the
Husker track squad bolstered the
morale of the group and insure:
the Nebraska tracksters of nn
even chance to retain their indoor
track laurels.
Bob was declared ineligible
early in the week but has ironed
out his scholastic difficulties and
will be ready to enter the meet
this week end. He runs both the
high and low hurdles, enters the
high lump, and is the top scorer
on the Nebraska squad.
