well convinced of their talents and

ballots for them htey undoubtedly

AllV.on, is fiureiitly running in
eighth place with the National
ballot at !H),);,K votes, as Herman,
"the barrel" sits in tenth position
with 119,382. Nebraska fans, let's
get behind these four boys with
bushels of ballots and reward them
for their three years of hard
fought competition under the Scar
let and Cream colors with berths
on the 1941 All-Star lineup. It
will be the first time in the history
of the contest that four boys from
one school have dominated the pro
gram. Wibbels may do it.
Magic and manpower constitute
a combination of strength rarely
found in any human being, even
an Aryan, but when they are dis
covered to be working haid-in-hand
for the good of one individual
the world usually sees a new
champion of some kind. In this
case these two mysterious forces
seem to be working for advance
ment of the sporting realm's dis
cus record held by Indiana's
Archie Harris. Casual remarks of
a year and a half ago that a cer
tain 21 year old Comhusker
twirler would fling the platter to
an all time high arc becoming
more numerous as well as trace
able now. "N" man Ed Wibbels
seems to be the man foremost in
the minds of all forecasters to
shatter Archie's existing feat of
171 feet.
Edscl's colossal heave of 16G is
only 8 feet short now. All the
while the mystery of his magic
and manpower are growing and
helping him in his easy workouts
behind the stadium walls. The
exercise this summer have been
none too strenuous, but only con
sistent, in that several times the
old plate has sailed to distances
of 1G0 feet with not too much ef
fort applied. Ed's magic lies in the
speed of his complicated windup,
which working in coordination
with the manpower found in his
massive shoulders and arms, will
someday within the next two or
three years catapult the old disc
to a distance somewhere on the
other side of 174 feet, and the
name of Ed Wibbels along with it.
World series dope.
By word of the mouth of that
doctor of forecasters, that dean of
predictors at thetender age of 19,
that czar of Sixteenth street prog
nisticators, Jim "Sugar" Roberts
fearlessly asserts that the Yanks
and the Dodgers will lock horns
next autumn in the world series.
With the heavy artillery guided
by that sage of baseball, oj Mc
Carthy, bringing another pennant
home. Eor the sake of argument,
Mr. Roberts can be reached at the
625 No. 16th, phone 2-4988, any
hour after 8 p. m. daily.
