Singing th blues, Huskcr track coach Ed Weir moaned Wednes day afternoon as injuries and in eligibility cut into the cinder squad. Wayne Blue, shot putter, and Hurdler Bob Kahler are out of competition for the remainder of the neason. Blue failed to make the scholastic hurdles, while Kahler pulled a muscle going over a regulation hurdle. Bus Knight, javelin thrower who reported after spring football, is not yet ready for meet throwing. Harold Scott, pole vaulter, is in eligible, and Hurdler-High Jumper Ralph King is bothered by an ear infection. Weir figures that the loss of Blue and Kahler alone can raise an awful havoc. Counting on them in the Minnesota meet and in a few weeks in the Big Six meet for 15 points. Weir now figures that those 15 points will be added to the scores of Nebraska oppo nents. King's 'ear bothers him, but he will make the trip to the Twin Cities. The team will leave for the triangular with Minnesota and Wisconsin Friday evening by train. Hcmswortli saves nctmcn from shutout James Hemswotth won his match to save Nebraska from a shutout as the Minnesota tennis team defeated the Huskers 8-1 at the Lincoln Tennis club yesterday afternoon.

These are Ted Husing picking.? for the 67th annual Kentucky Derby which will be run at Church ill Downs, in Louisville, Ky., next Saturday. Huslng will cover the color and highlights of the classic before and after the race for the Columbia Broadcasting company, while Clem McCarthy, veteran turf expert, will 'call" the actual running of the race. Husing has quite a remarkable record as a Derby picker, as he has covered eight Churchill Downs classics and his selections have yet to finish out of the money. Three came first, three were sec ond, one was third, and the eighth was scratched.

Taking another game and ap parently winning their league were the ATO's who edged out a neat Sigma Chi team to the score of 2 to 1. Landslide of the competition came when the Kappa Sigs turned in a score of 14 to 6 over a Delta Sigma Phi nine. A powerful Sigma Phi Epsilon team downed a former league threat, Sigma Nu, decisively when they completed nine innings on the long end of a 6 to 1 score. Zeta Beta Tau continued their victory march when the Acacia squad went down 7 to 5 before the heavy hitting Zebe batters. Theta XI loomed as one of the better teams when they down the Phi Psi nine to the tune of 10-2 to provide the second biggest drubbing of the day. Sigma Alpha Mu and Sigma Alpha Epsilon won from Chi Phi and Delta Theta Phi by forfeits. Score of the Delta Tau Delta Alpha Sigma Phi tilt could not be obtained. X I 1 Ml MM ties do things for you.

That Luster will be more or less of an old hand at this deceDtion stuff is apparent when he runs over a tew of his personal obser- vatl0ns- His idea of a good defensive team is the Chicago Bears, whom, as we in Nebraska know, use that "T" formation. On this point, the "Snorte" says, "Of course, their great personnel helped make it, but you can't get around the fact that their "T" formation spreads you out, and that they had men who could hit fast and hard through your widened and weak- ened middle." speaking on Columbia and their system of deception, Luster re marked, "Columbia would spend their first 40 minutes on the field practicing hiding the ball. Their two tailbacks play almost side by side and they polished their stuff over and over again. I watched several of their morning workouts and those boys spent almost all of their time handling that ball." Although Luster's new system at Oklahoma is built upon ball concealment, the Sooner coach points out that deception consists of far more than just hiding the ball. "The deception most missed by the average spectator is the ball carrier's skill in setting up his blocks after the center has thrown him the ball and it is in plain sight of everybody in the stadium, under his arm," Luster claims. Luster says that Oklahoma's offense this autumn should 3 When You Think of SPORTING GOODS xatv'Vvxyy funnier Think of .,v,J-;rr !SSi3, Cm fl -T 8J TT 1 , 1 iiu&Kcr& uig looms as champ golfer By Roland Finley. 1938-39.
