Bowles Back
Return of Don Bowles to the
University of Nebraska track and
field camp was the brightest news
to Mentor Ed Weir Monday.
A quartermile letterman, Bowles
gives the Huskers needed strength
in the middle distance races. He
returns from a recent marriage
and a brief honeymoon.
Maybe l-State.
"Unless we soon hear definitely
from Kansas State in regard to
our May 1 duel, we are going to
accept an invitation to meet Iowa
State on the same date," an
nounced Weir.
Weir indicated that the Cyclone
cindermen are anxious to engage
the Huskers and May 1 is the
only suitable date.
Al Zikmund, top Scarlet sprin
ter, leaped 22-2 into the indoor
broad jump pit to provide the
top performance of the day. Lack
of broad jump performers has been
a headache to Weir.
Eisenhart Out.
Another reportee was Ki Eisen
hart, junior weight tosser. Eisen
hart worked out with Vic Schleich,
Husker shot put star, since How
ard Debus, all-round performer,
was working.
"As plans stand now, we'll leave
for Stillwater Friday morning,"
said Weir in regard to the ap
proaching triangular with Okla
home and Oklahoma A. & M.
start for Simpson.
Freshmen make up the majority
of both teams, with Ken Luther at
first base, Dick Wright, second
base, Chuck Gradoville at third
base and Jack Runyan at short
stop. At the catching post is Gene
Phelps. In the field are Vern Lu
ther, right; Dayle Klett, center,
and Jim Sears, left.

Drake's high jumping sensa

standing performers entered in
the forth-coming Drake relays.
Jerry broke the Texas relay
record with a jump of 6-7J4

Donovan will furnish plenty
of competition for Nebraska's

Life is Monotonous ...
That Rreon-eyoil monster, ilubhed envy, creeps into our
Underwood as we scan the spring sports accounls in Hip Ten
s(nd liip Six collegiate news organs.
Daily accounts file into this office from Jimmy Overmeyer,
sports editor of the Indiana Daily Student, concern the ex
ploits of the Cincinnati Reds. Indiana university is the site
chosen this term for the National league team's spring- train
ing grounds.
We scan daily reports in the Daily Minnesotan about the
Gopher exploits on gridiron, diamond, cinders, tennis courts
and golf links. And then we turn to the twofold (1ra-k and
intvamurals) interests wc have to cover here. No football, no
golf, no tennis, no baseball life is monotonous.

Any credit directed toward the smooth-functioning Univer
sity of Nebraska intramural program can be accredited di
rectly to the honorable Thomas Brogan. director, and his sub
ordinates, Tat Boyle and Bob Oritzfeld.
Brogan, brother of trackster Jim, is an amiable law college
senior and former Tilden high halfmile pride. Between ver
bal repartee with Rollie Horncy and Boyle, "Brog" keeps busy
with the thousand duties detailed to an intramural director.
Level-headed Mr. Brogan possesess a sense of fairness which
has settled more than one hot inter-fraternity dispute.
Carrot-topped Pat Boyle handles a large chunk of the re
fereeing bulk beside shooting some of the top yarns aired
around the I-M office. Gritzfeld wears a "deep sea helm ut"
while officiating that does absolutely nothing for his Barry
more profile. "Keeps the hair from my blinkers," he explains.

"It seems rather foolish, as
fall is concerned. Virtually every man turning out can ex

the grid squad) won. t help any.
"California coaches have been aiguing strenuously for
a conference divided into two divsions like the baseball and
cage loops. Such proposals have a lot of sense in them it 1001
ball teams can be formed, but the fundamental point is just
what khid of teams can be organized this fall.

Kansas State and Kansas Uni

schools, that are not having spring
football practice. All the other
schools are doing more than going
thru the motion in preparing for
the 1943 football campaign, such
as it will be under war-time con

taken spring practices seriously.

It is business as usual on the
other four campuses, though.
Henry Shenk. former Jayhawk
