Spring drills were resumed yes
terday afternoon and will continue
until April 20. The gridders had
better get down to serious work
again if they expect to make up
for the inferior performance that
they put on just before vacation.
Nebraska weather has played
havoc with coaches and players
and lias cut down outdoor work
outs to a minimum. It has been
Nebraska policy the last several
years not to extend the practice
period the number of days that
they were forced inside even tho
the conference agrecme.it gives
leeway for this.
Major Jones and the coaching-
staff feel that a prolonged spring
practice causes unrest among
gridders; that therefore it is best
to quit in the specified time, rain
or shine. Anyhow the farmers are
benefitted.
Dr. John "Jock" Bain Suther
land, ex-Pittsburgh university
football coach, sarcastically ex
pressed his opinion of the new
I'itt athletic program at a testi
monial dinner given in his honor
at Pittsburgh Tuesday evening.
The gist of his talk was that
he could see no place "in this
city (Pittsburgh) of dynamic
poetry" for the "verse of daffo
dils and pink sunsets and milky
moonlight and anemic idealism."
The "old master" can't seem to
reconcile himself to the fact that
Pittsburgh, under Chancellor John
G, Bowman, will suddenly de
emphasize away athletics in favor
of more intellectual pursuits for
which universities are primarily
founded.
Lack of outdoor practice has
proved disastrous to Nebraska's
traveling ba.Tcball team. Had the
Huskers been given as much time
to sharpen their batting eyes and
get the feel of the diamond as
their southern arid western op
ponents, they would have fared
much better than they have. Back
home playing against teams of the
conference and midwest, who have
faced the same conditions, redeem
ing themselves should not be dif
ficult. Lack of material is not
lxthering the diamondcers this
season as in previous years.

firsts in outdoor track
Opening its outdoor track sea
son against Kansas at Lawrence
last Friday afternoon, Nebraska
fell before the superior strength
of the Kansans 72-59 despite the
valiant efforts of Bob Simmons,
senior quartermiler.
Simmoii3 won the 220 yard low
hurdles, the 440 yard dash, and
came from behind in the anchor
lap of the mile relay to give the
Huskers this last event. Bob was
spiked by a fellow teammate as
he received the baton in the event,
and his wound, tho not serious,
may keep him out of the Minne
sota meet Saturday.
Wright takes sprints.
Copping two other Nebraska
firsts was Lloyd Wright who cap
tured both sprint events. Paul
Owen earned his initial win of his
varsity career in the half mile, as
he nosed out Ernie Klann of Kan
sas in a last second spurt.
Harwin Dawson and Edsel Wib
bels contributed Nebraska's other
first places with Dawson copping
the broad jump and Wibbels his
specialty, the discus.
Chief loss to the Huskers came
in the shot siut where Chester
Friedland of Kansas beat Bob
Bills and Edsel Wibbels with a
heave of only 45 feet l'.i inches.

NYAaids 13

87,886 receive checks
during 1938-39 period
WASHINGTON, D. C. (I.P.)
The College and Graduate Aid
program of the National Youth
administration for 1938-39, It was
nnnounccd here by Administrator
Aubrey Williams, is reaching
13 1-2 percent more youths than
during the preceding academic
year.
Colleges and universities were
assigned quotas of students on the
basis of 9.3 percent of the total
number of resident undergraduate
and graduate students, 16 to 24
years of age inclusive, enrolled as
of October 1, 1936.
For the current academic year
1933-1939, the national student
quota is 87,886, as compared with
a student quota of 75,993 during
the year 1937-1938.
College students may not re
ceive more than an average of
$15.00 per month and graduate
students are restricted to an av
erage of $30.00 per month. How
over, because tho applications for
Student Aid far exceed the num
bcr who can receive assistance,
the average payment has been
reduced in order to assist as many
students as possible.
In November, 1938, preliminary
figures show that NYA paid an
average wage of $12.11 to 112.984
college and graduate students. The
average wage of the undergrad
uates was $11.94, while that of the
graduate students was $17.98.
The total allotment of College
and Graduate Aid funds for the
academic year iu.tii-;i!J amounts
to $11,838,555.

Baseball team'
meets defeat !
i
Husker barnstorming
trip brings five losses j
Victory has eluded the grasp of
Nebraska's barnstorming baseball
team who have up to date lost all
five of their scheduled games.
Arizona was the first nemesis of
the Huskers, sweeping the three
game series with wins of 6-1, b-3,
and 10-3. From Tuscon the Ne
braska nine traveled to San Fran
cisco only to see victory elude
their grasp as they lost to St.
Mary's 9 to 3.
San Jose handed the Huskers
theii next setback on Tuesday jn
a hotly contested game which the
Scarlet and Cream dropped 8 to 7.
Del Harris and Dow Wilson led
the Husker hitters, but even their
brilliant play could not save the
ship. Too little outdoor practice
sealed Nebraska's doom against
the westerners who have been out
doors all spring.
