Just in case you wonder who
make up the 1941 Nebraska swim
ming squad that is getting so
much deserved credit, the DAILY
presents a thumb-nail sketch of
each of nine swimmers.
Ralph Worden is a two year
senior major lettcrman from Alli
ance. Competes in the diving
event and has been defeated once
this season by a team mate. Held
the Big Six diving title in 1939.
His best point record this year in
dual competition is 120 points
against Oklahoma.
Bill Edwards is a junior letter
man from Lincoln and is the indi
vidual high scorer so far this-season
and last season also. Bill
competes in the 50 free, 100 and
the 400 relay, which helps to roll
up a 60 point total this season.
Has been defeated once in the 50
by Yeo of Kansas and in the 100
by Adams of Iowa State. Best
times in the two events are :24.5
and :55.9
Foster improves
Le Roy Foster is a junior minor
lettcrman from Lincoln and com
petes in the 200 yard brcaststroke
event besides swimming breast on
the 300 yard medley relay '.earn.
Thus far Roy has not shown ail
that he is capable, but showed im
provement when beating out Kan
sas last Friday in his specialty.
Les Oldfield is a sophomore
from Lincoln who is slated to
crack every record in the books
concerning the 150 backstroke
before hanging up his suit Thus
far this season, Les has second
place in number of points scored.
He set a new school record and
has bettered the Big Six mark
every time he has swum this sea
son. He also swims on the 300
relay besides the 400 relay. His
best time this season is 1:44.6 or
2.9 seconds under the Big Six
mark.
Ilibrert beaten once
Don Hilgert is another sopho
more from Lincoln and is a big
reason why Nebraska is unde
feated. He stars in the 220 and
440 free style and has been beaten
only once in each event by Stover
and Lemer of Kansas State. All
of his times this season have been
low and he is third high in total
points scored. He also anchors
the 400 relay.
Ky Rohman is also a sophomore
from Lincoln, but has been ham
pored due to sickness this season.
Ky competes in the 150 yard back
stroke and swims the free style
events in some cases. He has
taken second to Oldfield in sev
eral meets.
Hull a tod diver
Cliff Lambert is a sophomore
from Lincoln and in the words of
Coach Hagelin "has made more
progress this year than any other
two folio vs on the team." Cliff
did not compete in high school
and Grinnell was his first race
against competition where he
came in third in the 220. He also
competes in the 440.
Bill Hull is a sophomore from
Fairbury and holds the distinction
of being the only sophomore to
ever get one win from teammate
Worden in diving. Bill has shown
Edwards lias eye on two firsts . . .

Nebraska 50 and 100 yard free stylers. In addition to his specialty

Cornliusker vs. DAILY

. . at 4 p. m. today
Frosh cagers in

Husker-Jay game
Nebraska's crack frosh basket
ball squad will give another pre
view to next year's cage team
when they do battle again in an
intra-squad game, Saturday night,
in the coliseum as a wamup at
traction to the Husker-Jayhawk
tussle.
The Red and the White squads
have each a victory over the other
in games thus far. Saturday's fray
marks the championship game be
tween the two frosh teams.
The game will start at 6:30 and
will last until about 7:30. It will

"Wildcat" and will probably run
rampant since the DAILY will at
tempt to bottle the "Wildcat."
"Stalwart Stewart" the Cornhusk
er center will round out the first
line of deefnse and this trio is one
of the most fearful front lines to
ever appear on the Coliseum
floor.
Fireball Forke" the "forty
pointer'' will be at his regular
right guard post, and "Roving
Rundin," a fine floor man will
start in the back court with Forke.
"Click Royal," "Eat-em-up Fd
holm," and "Crasher Calhoun" will
see service in the second arid third
quarters. (Assuming of course
that the DAILY will need to play
quarters in order to get their
wind.) Early predictions accord
ing to bookmakers indicate at
least a 40 point victory for the
Cornhuskers.

coliseiim maples the Cornhusker
Yearbookies meet the DAILY
quintet in one of the outstanding
basketball games of the week in
the Capital City.
The coliseum record of 7,200
persons, set in 1937, will un doubt -
constant improvement and will be
good for at least a second in the
conference meet on Saturday.
Tom 'Woods is the last member
of the team and is a sophomore
from Lincoln. He competes in
both relays and in the 50. So far
this season he does not appear to
have hit his stride but has cut
down his times all along.

asm continues to run high. The
coaches of both fives have been
holding secret sessions this past
week.
Coaches Weirich and Russol of
the Yearbook quintet have not re
vealed their carefully laid
strategic plans but it is expected
that they will "shoot the works
from the opening gun."
The Nebraskan workouts have
been confined to the Union base
ment gymnasium the past week,
and one scout reported that the
DAILY will put at least two men
on "Wildcat McDermott" who is
the leading exponent of the "soft
touch" shot.
