Arrow shirts rate tops with two out of every three
college men. There's plenty of college spirit in their
snappy patterns and new spring colors. And you'll
have lots of choice in collar models, too, from button
down oxfords to wide-spread broadcloths. Mitoga
tailored and Sanforized labeled (fabric shrinkage
less than 1). If you intend to break some hearts,
you'll need some Arrows! '

Coaches Entertain
When the coaches entertain,
they do a good job . . . Tuesday,
to introduce Elmer "Gus" Holm to
Lincoln sports writers, the rest of
the coaching staff did the honors
. . . Holm impressed me in several
ways . . . First he has maintained
the trim of an athlete and dis
played a keen interest in all
phases of the sports world ... He
is approximately six feet in height
and weighs in the 200 pound
neighborhood ... He has dark,
somewhat curly hair and a pleas
ing personality . . . Yes, it looks
like we will get on well with Ne
braska's new line coach.
Biff Recalls-
In NeWYork, Major Biff Jones
is still using the word "our" in re
ferring to Nebraska and "that
team" when speaking about the
West Point grid team . . . Biff in
dicated in an interview that he
would be back to teach Nebraska
students the art of football when
the war was over ... He expressed
confidence in the present staff set
up at Nebraska as "an effective
organization."
Oklahoma Starts Early
The Sooners have been berating
the Iowa State cage quint with
caustic comments of direct aim at
the Ames institution . . . Coach
Louis Menze could not quite un
derstand the reason for the attack
and so queried Bruce Drake, the
Sooner coach, about it . . . Drake
was ready with the answer and
cive it to him . . . "We're not mad
at Iowa State but we're iust Ret
ting in a little practice before
Kansas U. comes to town, late
(bis month." This battle looks like
a natural and if the Sooners have
a pep rally before the game, other
guests might appear . . . Turn
about if fair play or something
along that line.

Creighton was the team that
