As Play Ends
The final playoffs in the IM
bowline; program will take place
Dec. 13 at 4 o'clock on the Lin
coln Bowling Alleys. The top two
teams in each of the three fra
terni'y leagues will participate in
play to determine the overall
chamnion.
Alpha Tau Omega, winner of
League I; Sigma Nu. champion of
League II; and Beta Sigma Psi,
atop League III. will play off for
the first, second, and third posi
tions, liecause of a tie .in League
II for second place between Delta
Tau Doltu and Sigma Alpha Epsi
lon there will actually be four
teams competing for fourth, fifth,
and sixth places.
The team turning in the high
est team score, either Delta Tau
Delta or Sigma Alpha Epsilon,
will have automatic possession of
second place in League II and
their score will be entered against
those of Kappa Sigma and Phi
ivappa rsi, runner-up teams in
Leagues I and III, respectively.
Total team scores for the five-
man teams will determine the
places and awarding of Jack JBest

power, a force to be reokoned
with on the national sports front.
We are aware that thru some
unfortunate statements and ac
tions during the season this year's
Cornhusker football team was
not an overwhelmingly successful
enterprise either on or off the
gridiron.
However the signs at the end of
the season pointed toward an im
provement on the field and with
such an improvement we believe
that the off-field relationships
will also improve. Nebraska teams
prior to the war were not in the
habit of losing more than two or
three games per season, and dur
ing the war years all usual stand
ards of criticism were laid aside.
Now that normal times in the
athletic world seem to be on the
way back, it is probably an in
ability to become accustomed to
seasons such as the one just con
cluded that has produced lack of
harmony between Nebraska and
its non-conference opponents.
True, it is hard to reconcile
one's self to a losing ball team
after being associated wholly with
winners and that is something of
the situation which prevails in
connection with Coach Bernie
Mastersoir.

be assigned to Alpha Tau Omega,
Sigma Nu, and Beta Sigma Psi.

nine will be reserved for the sec

turned in week after week.
League play was marked by the
fine way in whioh the program

by the fine brand of sportsman

A Gift
That Endures
A PHOTOGRAPHIC-PORTRAIT is a source o!
much pleasure to one's friends. As a token of
affection and remembrance, it is certain to be
appreciated. And when done by Townsend,
it is certain to be artistic and distinctive.

their football relations with Ne-
uraska, were represented by ath
letic directors and head coaches.
We hope the athletic department
has confidence in its ability "to
continue athletic relations with
schools so popular with Husker
fans, schools such as Minnesota
and Indiana. Such confidence
must be present for athletic de
partment actions certainly do not
indicate any awareness of a crisis.
Another rumor has been tracked
down in the vicinity of the Union.
It's something about a big fight
in the Union ballroom on Monday,
Dec. 16th. Two great fighters will
be there, and, in addition, John
Carson, the magician, will per
form a few bills of magic.
Who's gonna win the big bat

all the answers, be at the Union
