iVo dream
From out of Oregon comes this
tale of football team that was too
good.
An an Associated Press writer
puts it, "Reed college will be em-
barrassed no longer by the athletic
astutness of Coach William D. Mc
Elroy. "Reed is a school of purest aca
demic ideals. Sports are so de
emphasized that students usually
do their own coaching. Victory for
victory's sake alone is frowned
upon.
"That attitude enabled President
Dexter Keexer to chide other col
leges about "commercialized
sports" until 1939.
"McElroy scandalized Reed that
year by coaching a football team
to an undefeated season. When his
team went through the first half
of last season without a loss, there
was talk of getting another coach.
"The problem was solved yester
day. Reed officials disclosed
quietly that McElroy Had ac
cepted a biology research scholar
ship at Princeton university."
What we wonder, did the stu
dents at Kansas university have to
yell about last year? It appears
to be a question of attitude.
About the prep$ters ...
If vou've been following prep
tracksters over the state this
spring, you can share our opinion
that there are going to be plenty
of existing records moved over
into the nonexisting row, barring
bad weather at Saturdays siaie
track meet.
Prep observers agree that this is
one of the best track years among
the hieh schools durinz the last
decade. The thing can best be
summed up by saying, the only rec
ord reallv safe is the 220 mark of
21.8 established by Phillips of
Omaha Central in 1932. At last
count 92 high schools were already
officially entered in the meet.
With the dual meet Saturday
between Missouri's clndermen and
the Ed Weirmen and the state
high school track meet at the sta
dium Friday and Saturday, this
week-end will be a full one for
track and field enthusiasts. -
Missouri will be battling hard
to set down Nebraska's Big Six
champions this week-end. Mis
souri's Elmer Aussieker gave
warning of competition in the dis
cus and the shot put. The Tiger
ace threw the discus 143 feet, 10
inches in the Saturday meet with
Iowa State, which is just 2 feet.
4 inches under the throw made
by Senator Ray Prochaska at Min
nesota last week-end.
Nebraska's Bobby Ginn had ap
proximately a second better in
half mile time over the week-end
in relation to Marshall Reeve's
mark of Missouri. The latter
toured the 880 in 1:58.2, while
Ginn sped the distance in 1:57.
Dale Garrels, two mile man for
the scarlet and cream, is taking a
senior CAA course test Saturday
afternoon and will answer test
questions for about an hour, go to
the coliseum to run in the two mile
and the mile relay, and then re
turn to finish the quiz.
Race for the state high school
championship should be somewhat
open since Lincoln High, winner
of the meet for the past two
years, will not be a strong con
tender with the loss of players by
graduation and suspension.
Tech High is the leading favor
ite, but Omaha Central, Hastings,
North Plat.c, Scottstluif and Fre
mont should be leaders in the race.
Burwell and Ravenna are leaders
in the early "dope" for the class
"B" competition, being favored
over last year's champion, Osh
kosh. Other strong squads in the
"B" field will be Nelson, Harvard
and Beaver City.
Class "C" should be a contest
between Sutherland and defend
ing champion Callaway.
20 classes visit
Stvift packing plant
To aid girls in recognizing the
important points in purchasing
meat products, arrangements have
been made for the 20 animal hus
bandry classes to visit the Swift
plant at South Omaha tomorrow.

Baseball trade ... ',
The Chicago Cubs announced
ins nipht that thev had traded sec
nnH havman Billv Herman to the
Brooklvn Dodders for an undis
closed amount of money. Right
nnw if we were in Herman s shoes.
we wouldn"t feel a bit bad about a
deal like this. The Dodgers are in
hnt streak that should last
throughout the season and if this
comer ever wanted to pxcn a pen
nant winner and ride with it till
th end. it's now and the Dodgers.
And pennant winners mean more
pocket money for every lad on the
anuad.
The Dodgers should be tickled
Ahnnt the trade too. for Herman is
a steady hitting, consistently good
second baseman. Aye, uie irou- (
