Season's Opener
A sport that increases in fan
interest yearly will begin tomor
row when Husker splashers invade
Iowa State in the season's opener
in the swim sport. ... It is one
in which the Nebraska institution
is usually strong. . . . The Iowa
State-Nebraska dual clash has an
interesting record. . . . The win
ner of this match is usually the
winner of the conference title.
Consider the Past
According to Iowa State ad
vance publicity, this fact Is
driven home by their statement,
,-yyith the exception of last
Vyear, the winner of this meet
has won the conference meet."
The exception cited by the
Ames institution is something
of a sore point since the Husk
ers thought that they deserved
at least a tie for first.
The Situation
As the meet was going in to its
last event, the score stood with
the Huskers in front of the pack
by two points followed by Iowa
State and Kansas State. . . . Then
came the last race on the schedule
calling for the four man relay. . . .
The Huskers were represented by
! Les Oldfield, Don Hilgert, Roy
Foster and anchored by Bill Ed
, wards.
A Disqualification
Edwards took a lead from
j Hilgert and was striving des
; perately to keep up the fast
1 pace set by comparatively fresh
Roger Adams of the Iowa con
' tingent. ... In maintaining his
j pace, he veered out of his lane
Ao some extent and crowded the
Kitwimmtr next to him over a bit.
J ... He did not bump him or
I run him into the wall but the
referees upon the advice of the
i rival coaches disqualified the
i Huskers on the ground that
f they were out of their lane.
I A Tie
While Edwards did not win the
pvent, he came in second and mi
i ms the disqualification, the Husk
j ers would have pulled out a tie
' for first place. . . . But no points
1 were given the Nebraska splash
! ers in the last event and that was
j enough to allow the K Staters to
.' get second place points and con
! sequently second place in the fi
nal standings. . . . Swim coach
1 Pete Hagelin, now in the army,
was most dishearted since
I he had developed in his own
I words, "One of the best swim

Les Oldfield, junior backstroker, is exhibiting some of his
specialized talent as he churns the waves in anticipation of this
afternoon's meeting at Iowa State. He holds the conference back
stroke record and has never been defeated in college comptition in
the 150 yard backstroke event.
In Last Tabulation . . .
Phi Gams Maintain Lead
In Fraternity I-M Contest

After tabulating the scores of
the first semester activity in intra

260. In third place in the stand
ings is the Farm House with 253

dropped one dual meet before the
Big Six championships and had
dropped the name Iowa State
team in a dual meet in the coli

Potentially dangerous Iowa
State is on the guest list for
Husker cagers tomorrow night at
the coliseum.
The Huskers
are preparing a
royal welcome
for their visi
tors to be un
corked when
the two teams
take the floor.
Ad Lewandow
ski, cage coach,
is a little bored
with the de-
feats handed
his cagers and
so has taken
some measures
that he con
siders neces
sary to change
the existing sit
uation. KKN F.I.SON
Courtesy Journal.
His first switch was Kenny
Elson who replaces John Fitz
gibbon at the forward spot. El
son was one of the bright spots
in the last hiding the Huskers
took down at Kansas State and
his play there merited the pro
motion. The other change was in the
guard department where John
Bottorff, also a sophomore, was
added and Sid Held was moved
to center taking the place of Hart
mann Goetze who has not reached
his peak as yet. Bottorff is strong
on defense and has added points
at the more crucial moments.
At this point in the Big Six bas
ketball proceedings, Nebraska
ranks directly behind the Cyclones
in fourth place. A win over the in
vaders would mean a tie for third
place.

Ames Coach
Eyes Huskers
With Respect
AMES, la., Feb. 4 "We'll know
a lot more after the Nebraska
meet next Friday," is the verdict
of Jack McGuire, youthful coach
of the Iowa State college Bwim
ming team. "The records show
that the winner of that meet in
variably takes the Big Six title
so we'll know how we stand after
Feb. 6.
McGuire expressed neither opti
mism nor pessimism about the re
sults of the 52 to 32 victory over
Carleton in the opening meet of
the year.
"Some things were good," he
said, "others not sdgood." The ad
dition of Lincoln Stewart has been
a help. If Bill Bosworth can get
into shape then we definitely will
be stronger."
Both Bosworth and Stewart re
ported less than two weeks ago.
