NU Tankers,
I-State Meet
On Saturday
University of Nebraska swim
mers will get the toughest test
off the current campaign Friday
afternoon at the Coliseum pool
when the Iowa State Cyclones,
defending Big Seven conference
champs, invade for a dual meet.
Undefeated in four early sea
son duals, the Huskers will try
to avenge last season's loss to
the Cyclones. Coach Jack Mc
Guire will bring eight point win
ners from the championship ag
gregation to Lincoln.
Record Holder
Leading the list is Roger Watts,
conference record holder in the
220 and 440 free-style events. He
hung up a 2:16.2 standard in the
furlong and a 5:04 mark in the
quartermile during the 1948 meet.
Backing him are two more con
ference kings. Sam Shiffler will
be on hand to show his spring
board wares, while Howard John
son aims to boost his prestige in
the breaststroke.
Other Iowa State point winners
that will be on hand are: Dick
Kullman and Rush Smith, free
style sprinters; Bob Wcyant and
Earl "Jesek, backstrokers; and Ed
Howes in the breaststroke.
Grimm Leads N. IT.
Marvin Grimm, conference 50
and 100-yard free-style king, is
the leading point maker of Hollie
Lepley's Husker aggregation. In
the victories over Kansas, Colo
rado, Colorado State, and Colo
radio A. & M., Grimm has racked
up 39 points.
Other point winners from the
Big Seven meet on hand arc:
Perry Branch, sixth in the 50
yard free-style; Con King, third
in the breastroke; Figg Flagg, sec
ond to Shiffler in the diving; and
Jack Campbell, who swam a leg
on he second place relay team.
Campbell is currently carrying
the burden in the backstroke,
while Branch, Ted Kanamine, and
Sophomore Tom Harley are rack
ing up the points along with
Grimm in the free-style sprints.
Sophs Tops
A pair of sophomores, Bob
F-hclps and Bill Greer are show
ing the way in the breaststroke.
Phelps has been carrying the No.
1 assignment with Greer and King
racking up their share of points.
Sophomore George Hill is the
leading distance man.
One month remains until the
conference meet, so Friday after
noon's meet will offer a preview
of the loops leading squads.

Esref Makes
Initial Hnsker
Track Showing
On July 1, 1947, a young Turk,
Esref Aydin, stepped from a train
in Lincoln.
He came here to run in the Na
tional AAU Track and Field
championships. Esref knew four
English words: "Thank you very
much."
He liked Lincoln and the Uni
versity of Nebraska. He decided
to stay and enroll. That decision
meanj. night and day work to mas
ter a language and become eli
gible. Won Battle
But this week Esref won his
long battle. It was touch and go
on several occasions. He has at
tended the same class two and
three times during the same day
to overcome his terrific handicap
of dealing in a strange tongue.
Esref ran third in the two-mile
against Minnesota last Saturday
night, making his first appearance
in Husker silks.
He holds the Turkish national
record for the mile which he ran
in 4:24.2 in early 1947. He also is
Turkey's record holder at 5,000
meters with a time of 15:18.4.
Aydin has not only burned
plenty of midnight oil over his
books but it has been necessary
for him to largely pay his own
way. To do it he has worked at
many jobs.
Run To Omaha
Esref was t king about his
running to Walter Renter, in
charge of stadium upkeep. Walter
finally said:
"You talk like a guy who could
run to Omaha."
"How far is Omaha?" Esref
asked.
He was told and immediately
began computing the miies into
meters. Then Esref said: "When
the weather clears I'll do it."
Floyd Bottorff, equipment man
ager, warned Renter, "Better not
bet him. For five bucks he'll run
to Omaha."
