Baseballers see studios,
'Frisco fair while on trip
Nebraska's opening home baseball game, with Iowa Stale,
was rained out yesterday, and, weather permitting, the boys
will go at it this nfternon in a double header at Muny park, to
begin at 3 o'clock.
The games have been moved from the university fields,
the clay on the new diamond being too sticky for use until it
completely dries. No admission will be charged provided the
games arc played.
Rube Denning and Lloyd Schmadeke, Coach Wilbur
Knight's ace moundsmen, will do pitching duties for the Husk
ers' while Dean Drury and Stan Swandahl will divide the
work for Lelioy Timm's Cyclones.
Coach Wilbur Knight and his
14 baseball players arrived in Lin

their western trip, with interesting
tales about Arizona, California and
Colorado.
They said that the team was
pleasantly entertained in Tucson
by the Arizona baseball squad, be
ing taken thru the mountains on
Wednesday, the first day in Tuc
aon. That night they had dinner
at various fraternities. "Rube
Denning, while the team remained
in Tucson, drove to Mexico with
Carl Alexis, son of Joseph Alexis,
head of Nebraska's German de
partment. See Hollywood.
Early Saturday morning the
team reached Los Angeles. In
Hollywood, the group was given
passes to go thru the Twentieth
Century Fox studios. They saw
several nets of Sonja Heine's new
picture, and viewed Janet Gay
nor's, Mae West's and Shirley
Temple's wonderful homes. They
ate their lunch at the famous
Brown Derby and visited the Palo
mar that evening.
Sunday, at 3:30 a. m.. seven of
the players, Horak, Tegtmcier,
Denning, Moates, Brune, Schmode
and Harris attended the Easter
sunrise services in the famous
Hollywood Bowl.
Sunday afternoon the coach and
all the players, except Schmode
and Denning, watched Chester
Morris and Glenda Ferrell perform
in the Silver Theater broadcast.
"Rube" and Alvin spent the aft

Maybe this supposed "feminine"
influence in Nebraska athletics
isn't so bad after all. Nebraska's
only victory on its western trip
was at California.
Reason? Well, since all good
gals, like Cornhuskers, stick to
gether, our theory is that it's the
four Nebraska coeds who watched
the Huskers play that day. Pat I
Pope, lbs Waugh, Tess Casady,
and Helen Tovanda who were at
tending the national WAA con
vention at Berkeley were there to
cheer the Huskers on to victory.
The Daily Cal mentioned them in
its write up of the game.
Helen Kovanda and Elnora
Sprague saw the Huskers lose to
St. Marys but I guess we should
not say anything about that.
Today marks the opening of the
baseball season both major
league and Big Six so far as Ne
braska is concerned. Since every
rag in the country has announced
it's selections for winners we'll be
different and not say anything ex
cept that it will probably be the
Yankees again in the American,
and that it will probably not be
the Phillies in the National.
Although it's doubtful that the
weather will clear up enough to
permit the Huskers to play Ames
this afternoon at Muny, we'll put
in our say for the baseball team
now. They're a better team than
the record indicates they showed
they had the stuff in beating Cali
fornia s good team 10-3 in which
Nebraska made nary an error, and
in which the Bears got only six
hits off pitcher Lloyd Schmadeke,
accounting for all their runs with
homers.
The double loss to Colorado can
be at least partly accounted for by
the fact that Wilbur Knight used
reserve pitchers, holding Sch
madeke and Denning, his two
best, for work against Iowa State.
Bob West, sophomore Indian
backfield star of Oklahoma, won
the O. U. Oklahoma Aggie javelin
throw with a 184 foot toss....
which would go very far toward
giving him a second in the Big

Five Greek, three barb
league set for action
Schedules for play in intramural
softball, opening of which had
been set for yesterday, have been
announced, with 26 teams in five
fraternity leagues and 18 teams
in three barb leagues ready to go.
Three games in League 5, the
six team fraternity league, were
rained out yesterday, and it is
likely that there will be little or
no baseball played this week, be
cause of the sticky condition of
the day on the new athletic field
caused by the rain.
Barbs may begin Wednesday.
Barb competition, with games
also scheduled for the new ath
letic field, has been set to start
Wednesday, but their games may
also be postponed because of bad
l forbid my daughter to play
hockey!7 writes 1913 mother
3Y JOSEPHINE RUBNIT2.
Mothers of 1913 were afraid to
send their daughters to college for
fear that they would participate
in such "rowdyish games" as
hockey, according to the Nov. 1,
1913 edition of the DAILY NE
BRASKA N, preserved in the scrap
book of the A. W. S. board.
"Every Monday, Wednesday,
and Friday morning sees a long
line of bloomer-clad girls with
hockey sticks, running around the
corner and down the slope lead
ing from the girls' gymnasium in
the armory building to the foot
ball field," an article publishedin
the Lincoln STAR says.
Hockey is last straw.
One mother wrote most in
dignantly when her daughter
asked permission to play hockey,
"Hockey is the last straw. If the
young women are required to
cavort on a football field in bloom
ers to earn a college diploma, bet
ter go without it."
"We mothers spend years of
endeavor to train our girls to be
gentle women of culture, conser
vatism and refinement, only to
have the work of years' painstak

Nebraska women also partici
pated in track and had the honor
of holding two world records in
girls' track athletics, the Nov. 1,
1915, edition of the DAIL NE
BRASKAN reports.
Woman's sphere broadens.
The records were the pole vault
record of 6 feet 3 inches won by
Miss Eva Fisk and the 40 yard
hurdles, won by Miss Florence
Simmons in 7 1-5 seconds. The ar
ticle indicates that women were
awarded letters and that the
"women's sphere has broadened in
universities to include athletics
along with intellectual activities."

There will be an important meet
ing of Pershing Rifles tonight at
5 o'clock. All members are urged
to turn out.
