Renaissance?
It just doesn't seem natural
this business of Nebraska be
ing an all-sports elalmaitt to the
ash can prize of the Nig Six
conference.'
4Hho there has possibly been
less state yard conversation in
downtown Lincoln concerning
Cornhusker athletics, the vil
lage wolves are not snapping
at whatever it is the wolves
snap at. Instead Cornhuskers
followers seem to retain a plac
id outlook on the entire situa
tion and dismiss the matter
with: "AVell, it's war time,
isn't it?"
It may be war time, our ath
letes may be falling before the
manpower axe but other Big
Six schools face the identical
difficulties. Outside of the hue
of grandeur Pfcog Allen and
Kansas have cast over the Big
Six basketball horizon in past
years, there are no traditions
greater than Cornhusker domi
nance over leagr track and
gridiron fields.
These opening paragraphs
are dedicated to a faculty mem
ber who demands to know
"just what has happened to
our sports." Mr. Faculty Mem
ber also requests a solution for
the situation.
When results of the Husker
(25 23) Missouri (7813) cin
der duel finally came thru Sat
urday nijrht, too late to make
the Kag deadline, we awoke to
full realization of the situation.
A summary of the KU mass
acre earlier in the evening con
vinced us that:
1. Nebraska is going to
start losing its current star
prep performers to nearby state
universities. It has been the re
nowned NU athletic reputation
lhat has kept prize Husker
prcpslers from migrating in the
past.
2. A "rejuvenation" cam
paign, even inface of war diffi
culties seems to be in order.
Contact the prep athletes at
least, show them what we have,
and convince them that Ne
braska University is the only
school in the country. Even if
these athletes are called to serv
ice before they have chance to
matriculate here, they'll always
come back after the war.
Instead of bemoaning our
track situation, our athletic-inclined
males "should search their
ranks for cinder talent. "We
know of enough inactive track
talent in school to collectively
account for nt least ten points
per dual meet.
4. A concentration in the fu
ture on grasping the basketball
talent which filters to state col
lege dubs, Creighton, and out
slate schools. "I)c-emphasiza-tion"
of basketball in the past
has been a discredit to two fine
coaches Harold Browne and
Ad Lewandowski.
If Thog Allen ever treks thru
desert territory, the good
"Doc" hacl best recruit a cara
van of wnter trucks to take the
trek with him. .

over the league.
Jay followers, however, remem
ber a year ago when Phog's lads
filled the same position. Then
came weak Iowa State to tip the
Jays straight into a league tie
with Oklahoma.
Oklahoma tipped Iowa State
twice last week to remain within
a fray of leading Jayhawkers.
Nebraska's weary cagers, down
hearted after three consecutive
league defeats, rested yesterday.

"Missouri was definitely as pow'

we can scrap up enough points in
crticifll events we may bounce

Missouri for the first time last

"The war hasn't hit the Tigers
yet with their athletes in the
Naval reserve V-7 and the coach

tinued, in regard to Tiger man

Nebraska's strength was con
centrated in the shot put at Col

of the 1942-43 Sooner basketball
season will occur here March 1,
and, Oklahoma fana still remem
ber the 1941 Nebraska - Sooner
fracas.
Oklahoma recalls with a shudder
Nebraska's rallying ability. Back
in 1941 at Norman, Oklahoma led
Nebraska 37-17 with only ten
minutes left to play but was blown
off the boards by a blistering
Cornhusker recovery that saw the
Scarlet nipping the Sooners 43-42
when Young hit a long one-hander
in the final two seconds.
The Cornhuskers are making
their eallant fight this season
with almost a veteran array, sen
iors Max Young, John Thompson
and John Fitzgibbon and Juniors
John Bottoiff, Kenneth Elson and
Robert Heinzelman.
Free Thowing.

I-M basketball moves into the
third night of play this evening
with nine class "A" games on the
docket.
Four of the nine tussels should
be placed on your "must see" list.
They are as follows: Phi Gamma
Delta vs. SAE, Beta Theta Pi vs.
Sigma Phi Epsilon, ATO vs. Phi
Delta Theta, and DU vs. AGR.
All of these contests will have
an influence on changes in the
standings especially the ATO-
Phi Delt clash.
Anv outsider glancing at the
class "B" scores in last Friday s
rag" would have thought they
were a list of baseball and foot
ball results. In the baseball like
scores, the ATO's won a pitchers
battle over the Beta Sigs 7-4 and
the DU's took a slugfest from the
Farm House 12-4.
The Phi Delts won a 13-7 affair
from the Sig Nu's and the Delta
Sigs kicked two extra points for
a 14-12 decision over the SAEs in
the gridiron scores.

The Don James that led the
ATO's to their win over the Phi
Psi's is the same Don James that
led Falls City to a second place in
trie state tourney a couple of weeks
ago. Don was awarded a place on
the first all-state team that year
and is not to be confused with
Birdie" James, the other ATO Don
James.

Minnesota Team
MINNEAPOLIS, Feb. 15.
Should Minnesota win the Big Ten
rockey championship this winter,
it isn't going to be any surprise to
the members of the Gopher team,
because they have the "Champion
ship Kid" on their side.
He is Bob "Cue Ball" Graiziger,
versatile wing and defenseman.
Being on title-winning teams is
nothing new to Graiziger, and he
hopes to be on another one after
a few more games. Back in high
school, the Gopher hockey tcm's
co-captain played on six Twin City
championship outfits.
He rotated at both wing and
center on a great St. Paul Wash
ington six that went undefeated
for two consecutive years. In the
1938-39 season, Washington won
23 out of 24 games, being tied
only by Minneapolis West in a
pre-season game. And for two
straight years, Graiziger was the
leading scorer in the St. Paul high
school league,
Sweden's most famous conserva
tive student society, the Heimdal

adopted a change in regulations
according to which nazi sympa
