DAILY NEBRASKAN Wednesday, February 10, 1943 6 By Norris Anderson (Sports Editor) tRJW-'------ - CvTl, I (' t ' I V ,s v I v , ) v v. us Wtimmm i -ft :Jl Jubt a President Roosevelt keeps Undersecretary Sumner Wells about white house premises for minor duties, so doesn't the almie;htyiCan.san Phog Allen retain the services of Chuck Kllio'tt as direction of the KU sports news service, better known as the P. P. P. (Phog's Private Press.) Statements denouncing "glandular giants," unimportance of football, and how Oklahoma got Tucker have in the past flown from Phog's oral cavity via Chuck's Corona to every newspaper in the nation. Once every blue Monday a release not concerning: Mr. Al len slips out of Mount Oread. This being blue Tuesday Chuck ships sis a "synopsis" of Dr. Allen's star performer, Charley Black. "Aire 21, wt. 108, ht. C 4." Junior letterman '42, Charlie attended Highland Park high school in Topeka for three years before transferring to Southwest high of Kansas City where his coach was Mel Bishop. lie was eligible only his second se mester at Southwest because of his transferring, but he was a sensation. As a result he was enticed to attend University of Wisconsin. After his freshman year there his parents moved t. Lawrence -and Charlie started in at K. U. He was a member of the If'tl freshman team which was labeled the best in K. U. basketball history (Ray Evans, Don Etti tiger, Jack Ballard. Paul Turner, and Black). " As a sophomore last year he started out in a blare of glory with 2f points against Oklahoma in his first Big Six game. lie went ahes-d to average 12.8 points a game in conference play which placed him second to Ralph Miller (Kansas) in full-season scoring. Up made every all-Big Six team either as for ward or guard last year. This year he had a little trouble with his attitude and was dropped from the squad but is back now, better than ever. "Coach 'Phog' Allen rates him as the 'best man I've ever coached.' He is one of the finest natural athlees ever to come to the tin i voiv.it y. He can shoot any kind of a shot with uncan ny acriirr.acy from a one-hand push shot to a one-hand swing attempt to a two-hand overhead try or an orthodox set shot. II is long arms make him invaluable at blocking shots on the defensive. This ability has caused Allen to play Black at for yard on the offensive. lie is the greatest offensive threat on the team and will spearhead the Jayhawk attack. He is ma joring in physical education, enlisted in the army air corps re serve, and is the only married man on the team." Task of covering Mr. Black will undoubtedly- fall to Moxic Young, top defensive Dusker. Young's height and aggressive play, plus a reassuring air of steadiness, constantly draw him the thankless job of covering the foe's top offensive performer. Three additional Max Young's may be required to stop three other Jayhawks who constantly find the meshes.. Guard Ray Evans (average 10 per game), Forward Otto Schnellbacher (10.3), and Euescher 9.8) require considerable defensive atten tion. Conditioning, Experience Needed for UN Track Squad . . . Mizzou Saturday BY HENRY FtSHBACK. Spike professor, Ed Weir, wait ing patiently for news to trickle thru concerning the Missouri-Kansas State cinder gathering, whipped his scant Scarlet track crew thru conditioning drills last night Weir toiled by the pole vault pit a good part of the afternoon, tak ing pains in rounding slow-conditioning Howie Debus into shape. Debus, out on the cinders for the first time during the week, was active at the pit and the shot put ring. His mark in shoving the iron ball carried out around the 46-foot mark. Weir hopes he'll be ready to supplement Schleich in the weight event Saturday and also figure prominently in pole vault competition. There he placed Becond in the conference meet last Spring. 48-Foot Put. Schleich hefted the iron pellet out close to the 48-foot mark while Eisenhart rounded out the weight performance with several enable efforts in brief drills yesterday. Nebraska's chances of slicing into the. Missouri point total Sat urday depend much on several newcomers, according to Weir. Uhrlstenson and Tallmen are counted in the hurdles and Hazard In the sprints. Veteran Al Brown leads a brace of middle distance men In Jim Brogan, Paul Johrde, Bowles, and others. urewn, tops of the group, whipped thru a 2:02.1 ' 880-yard grind performance recently. James Vaults. Peterson in the broad jump; James, far behind Debus in the pole vault, and Abbott a 6-foot high-jumper complete the unit that Weir indicates he'll throw against Missouri "Petring, high-Jumper, sprinter, and broad jumper, has been slow rounding into shape and with Zik round, won't be ready until the Kansas State tussle," said the Cornhusker hnd'nnn. casting an- c1- gloomy Siiadow over Husker Interfraternity Basketball Schedule 1942-43 "A" League 1 League Phi Gamma Delta Bct Tneta p , Sigma Alpha Mu Beta Sigma Psl Zeta Beta Tau Farm House Sigma Alpha Epsilon Sigma Chi Dalta Tau Delta Sigma Phi Epsilon Delta Sigma Pi League 3 League 4 Alpha Tau Omega De,ta Upsilon Phi Kappa Psi Theta Xl Sigma Nu Kappa Sigma Xi Psi Phi Alpha Sigma Phi Phi Delta Theta Alpha Gamma Rho League 1 Date Time Phi Gamma Delta vs. Zeta Beta Tau 2-11-43 7:30 Sigma Alpha Epsilon vs. Delta Sigma Pi 2-11-43 8:00 Delta Tau Delta to.
