A great deal of interest in this year's carnival, traditionally one of the outstanding events of its kind in the nation, has been evi denced by the preliminary corre spondence and inquiries which have been coming into the offices of the athletic department here.

JACK Gunther in his UP column states, "...The USC-UCLA clash might go to Minneapolis or Lincoln, Neb. The question, of course, is whether the alien teams would draw so far from home..." The statement was concluding a suggested proposal to shift the coast games to the midwest to escape the 5,000 limit on athletic crowds. . . It seems that some of the sport critics on either coast think that it would be a good idea to transfer half way inland and that way the games could play before larger crowds. FIRST effect of the placing of a limit on crowds was noticed at Stanford . . . Clark Shaughessy, Cinderella coach of the Indians, fail ed to renew his contract and signed at Maryland. . .At his new job he will be shaking down an estimated $9,000 per year and there will be no limit upon the crowds witnessing his team in action. . .It was Coach Shaugnessy who pulled Stanford out of their football recession (new deal term) and put them into the Rose Bowl in 1940... That was the year that Kmetovic and company put the Huskers out of commission ...He could have asked his own terms that year. CONSIDERING Gunther's remark concerning drawing power of the teams away from home, it is our opinion tht such an arrange ment would not fare too badly... At least there would undoubtedly be enough over the 5,000 limit to pay the coast schools to send their teams into the wild and wooly interior. . .If the Husker institution were selected, 35 to 38,000 would be the top limit here but even 15,000 over the prescribed limit would make the proposal a paying one. . .Football would be on tap nearly every week end. . .Minnesota and Pittsburgh are both scheduled to perform on the Cornhusker sod besides the coast teams: this would insure good crowds con sistently. . .And another thing it would definitely set the midwest up as the high lands of intercollegiate football, a place which it now holds in reality but not in name. EUGENE "Red" Littler definitely proved that he would wind up his senior year in a blaze of glory, provided he can maintain and strengthen a pace which he set on Monday evening. . .Working out on the stadium track in the great cut of doors, Red stepped off a 100 yard dash in 09.8 seconds and he had not given everything to do that ...A performance of those proportions merits special mention since it is so early in the season. . .The Texas relays are to be held this week end bringing together the best from the the country over down in Austin. NEWTON Copple, Husker wrestler, left this morning for the National Intercollegiate Wrestling tournament to be held in East Lansing, Michigan. . .He accompanied the Kansas State' coach and his entry, Porter. . .Porter and Copple are the best in the conference, grabbing a co-title in the 145 pound division during the regular dual season... The two drew in their match for the first time in eleven matches that the K-Stater had not won.

Red Littler, Bobby Ginn, Harold Hurt and company will open out door activity April 11 when Minne sota invades the Scarlet oval for a duel meet.
