Six Huskers
Will Compete
In Iowa Meet
. . . At Des Moines
The University of Nebraska has
entered a six man squad in the
35th annual Drake Relays, sched
uled for Des Moines Friday and
Saturday.
The men
named by
Coach Ed Weir
to wear Husker
colors at Drake
are Dean Kratz,
Big Six indoor
440 and 880
champion; Dick
Miller, confer
ence indoor co
champ in the
pole vault;
Norvall Barker,
freshman hurd
ler; Buzz Hollins and Lowell An
derson, weight performers, and
Dick Petty, high jumper.
Kratz appears to be Nebraska's
best bet, running in the 440 yard
dash in which he has registered
times under 50 secqnds. The other
live named by weir will be mak
ing their initial outdoor appear
ance in Husker togs. I1 but An
derson, however, were rpembers of
the Scarlet indoor squad during
the past season.
Weir knows little about the
chances of his charges r.t Drake.
The quality of the competition the
Huskers must face is pretty much
an unknown quantity, and in addi
tion rainy weather has kept the
Weirmen from working outdoors
in preparation for the Des Moines
carnival.
With UN relay teams out due
to Weir's manpower shortage,
Husker entries will be confined to
individual events

FUN
BY ELEANOR KNOLL.
Hats off to the SDTs for their
attempts to move up in the volley
ball ladder tournament. They were
trimmed by the Thetas with a
score ot 53 to 40; they were beaten
by the AOPis with a closer score
two point win. Maybe the third
challenge will be a charm. With
spunk like that, victory just has
to come sooner or later.

Leap Year
(Continued from Page 1.)
to agree word for word with what
her man is glowing about, and her
vocabulary consists mostly of
"Yes," "Not really," and "You're
so right." It's not exactly cricket,
but she never fails to get what she
wants, believe me!!
The "keep asking me until I'm
in the mood" gal works in just the
opposite way, but her results are
almost as good. She starts out by
saying no, and continues to say
"no" until the man is almost at
the end of his rope, and then she
says "yes" so fast, he hasn't a
chance. She plans her campaign
by first tearing down man's great
est pride, his ego. And since every
man has an overwhelming one,
you can probably understand her
results.
"Hurt Hannie" is the most de
ceitful of the whole group. At
every chance, she sheds a quiet
tear or two, that is trained to slip
demurely down her cheek, and
then she assumes the long suffer
ing, martyr role. She will pout,
cry, or even scream, not so de
murely, if she thinks it will at
tract attention. So the man is al
fays forced to bog her pardon, fall
on his knees, and even bank his
head on the floor to persuade her
to forgive him. Some men even go
so far as asking the girl to marry
him, and so our story ends with
another -sucker making his final
bid for happiness, laden with that
ball and chain so familiar to mar
ried people.
Leap year brings out all these
different types of girls, and they
seem fully aware of their unlim
ited advantages.
