Patrons of this summer's na
tional A. A. U track champion
ships which will be held In Lincoln
should be treated to a battle royal
in the shot put what with Elmer
Hackney of Kansas State, Bill
Watson of Michigan and Francis
Ryan of Columbia as three of the
leading contenders.
Hack beat Watson in the Ill
inois Relays, but his best toss, 51-6
Isn't as good as the 51-8 3-8 Wat
son got in setting a new Big Ten
indoor record last Saturday. Ryan,
meanwhile, has bettered 51 feet
this year, and is considered by
easterners as a sure shot for the
national collegiate championship
this year.
Another easterner, Danny Tay
lor, has transferred from Boston
College to New York U., and does
better than 50 feet, although that
won't have much of a chance to
show up what with about a dozen
other shot putters in the country
doing that well. Oddity of it all is
that no American, since the one
and only Sam Francis, has been
the leading shot putter in the
world. Hans Woelke, uie German
who was No. 1 man at the last
Olympics, is still around, and had
the best cut in the world last
year, but Sam, at the time he
turned professional, was probably
the world's best shot putter, and
seemed to be only hitting his stride
when he ended his amateur career,
Woelke, best in the world
present, is in a class by himself
in Germany, but 50 foot shot put
ters, and, even more so, 48 foot
shot putters, are a dime a doze
in this country. It's much the sam
situation as existed in tennis when
Fred Perry was dominating thing
England had the best tenn
player in the world, but if
series of matches had been ar
ranged by the ten or twenty best
Americans and the ten or twenty
best Englishmen, the States' boys
would have won, hands down.
Tsk, tsk, ex-Husker
football stars turn
to basketball court
Nebraska U. football greats
have turned to basketball, for the
week, at least. This week sees
Lloyd Cardwell, Sam Francis,
Chaley Brock, Bernie Scherer and
Bill Callihan in exhibition games.
Oppose crack pro team.
Iast night the boys opposed the
New York Shamrocks, a crack
professional team at Columbus,
Brock's home town. The game was
sponsored b ythe milk and health
fund, featured such Shamrock
stars as Edgar "Chief" Rankin,
Columbus Indian, and Tick Deh-
ner, Illinois captain and all Big
Ten center this year. Friday night
the ex-Huskers play in Grand
Island.
The Husker crew boasts a
wealth of ability. Francis was con
sidered a better basketball than
football player when he was an all
stater in Kansas. Cardy was one
of the best centers in the state
during his high school career.
Charley led Columbus to the state
championship five years ago rs he
was named all state center, and
Scherer was at one time a member
of the Husker basketball squad.
Callihan scored 12 points against
a powerful Nebraska freshman
team In a game recently.

Lilncsirccn get
attention in
grid practice
Team moves outside
again; Braasch fills in
for injured Prochaska
Back into the open after being
rained in Saturday, Biff Jones put
his grldders thru a stiff two hour
practice session on the practice
field yesterday afternoon.
Linemen received the bulk of
the attention as the huskies grunt
ed and shoved as they dug into
their blocking assignments under
the watchful eyes of Link Lyman,
Bill Pfeiff, Paul Amen and Bob
Mills.
The brunt of the work fell on
the shoulders of the ends and
tackles as Paul Amen, former
Husker wingman and now assist
ant end coach gave his protege's
pointers. Standouts among the
flankmen were Bob Kahler, Bob
Ludwig, George Seeman, Glenn
Schluckebier, and Don Waddick.
Ray Prochaska watched the work
out from the sidelines because of
an injured ankle.
After the initial drills the team
divided into the Harvard and Yale
squads and ran thru the already
familiar plays. Passing received
its share of stress with Hermie
Rohrig, Harry Hopp, George Por
ter, John Sandall, Jack Vincent
and Donald Rubottom flipping the
oval with better than usual early
season accuracy.
Personnel of the Yale and Har
vard squads remained almost the
same as has been the case, the
only changes being that Vernon
Braasch was filling the injured
Ray Prochaska's end position, and
John Sandall filling in at Hermie
Rohrig's backfield spot on the
Harvard squad. Hermie was hav
ing a little trouble with a minor
leg injury.
Wegner takes 46
second fall in Ag meet
145 pound Don Wegner pinned
his opponent in 46 seconds last
