Hear ye, all you critics!!! Here's an idea this corner would
like to try: we are asking for letters or notes of criticism in
regards to the makeup and nature of news content on these
pport pages of the DAILY.
4IIuskcr glamour boys'
The University Daily Kansan went over-board for the
lluskcrs, granting five places on its conference team. . . Alfson,
iUther, Forrey Behm, Fred Preston, and Harry IIopp were on
the Jayhaker first eleven. . . Royal Kahler, Eddie Sehwartz
kopf, Vike Francis, and Hemic Rohrig (named captain) were
second team choices. . .
In addition, the Kansan went a bit further and
named an All-Big Six Glamour team. . . Behm and
Alfson again, along with Center Freddie Meier and
George "Bus" Knight were picked on this "pretty
boy" lineup. . . Ah, bliss. . .
Minnesota survey
In a student poll conducted on the Minnesota campus re-
ccnty, the Gopher under-graduates voted in favor of the Viking
football team appearing in the Rose Bowl. . . The vote stood
64. 8 percent for participation in Pasadena on New Year'
day. . .
In the Kansas State Collegian, only two Corn
huskers were placed on its All-Big Six eleven. . . Those
two were Butch Luther and Warren Alfson. . . Three
players, incidentally, were from the Wildcat school
and also Oklahoma. . .
Husker attendance
Nebraska gridders played to. one more home crowd this sea
son in comparison to 1 0:19 and still gained only 13,000 fans
over last year. . . A year ago, the lluskcrs played to 120,000 in
four home games, while 1M,000 fans viewed the Scarlet foot
ballers at home this fall. . .
Excuses for this are the cold weather and the fact
that both Pittsburgh and Minnesota, Nebraska's great
intersectional rivals, were played on foreign fields. . .

A drink has to be good
to be enjoyed millions of
times a day by peoole the
world over in every walk
of life. Coca-Cola is one of
those good things whose
quality stands out. You
welcome its taste and its
after-sense of refreshment.

Leading the
Scarlet cagers
will be Don
Fitz, senior
guard - for

Jackson high
athlete, who is
one of the
standout b a s
k e t b a 1 lers in
the Big Six COACH BROWNE
conference. journal.
Towering Al Randall, six-foot
seven-inch center, will be the
other probable senior in the start
ing five tomorrow night. The ex
Omaha South cage star is count
ing on this, his last, season to
show the stuff that has long been
expected of him.
Held stands out.
The other Husker stalwart is
Sid Held, rangy guard and junior,
who was one of the best sopho
more stars on the maples last year
in the Big Six loop. Six-foot four
inch Held is very adept at taking
the ball off the
bankboards and
can be counted
on for a goodly
number of points
per game.
The other for
ward spot will
probably be
filled by Hart

Sophomore at guard?
The open guard spot will likely
be filled by a sophomore. John
Thompson, Jackson high alum,
and Max Young, Bethany high
graduate, are the leading candi
dates for the fifth spot on the
starting five. Thompson is a short
and stocky guard but has good
defensive ability, while Young has
hcicht and a good scoring eye.
Others that will press the first
five heavily are Johnny Hay, Lin
coln junior; Ted Greene, York
sophomore ; Bobby B r a m s o n,
Omaha soph; John Fitzgibbon,
Tobias first year man; and veter
ans Lyle King, Chuck Vacanti,
Lcs Livingston, Bob Garey, Don
