Jack Best Race
NU Tradition
For 19 Years
Jack Best, Nebraska trainer
around the turn of the century,
has been a part of the intramural
system since 1930 altho he was
never directly connected with the
intramural program.
In recognition of the beloved old
trainer, the I. M. department
originated the Jack Best su
premacy trophy. To the organiza
tion securing the largest number
of all-year points, the trophy was
awarded. The award became the
permanent possession of the or
ganization winning it.
The first trophy was won in
1930 by Tau Kappa Epsilon. The
winners since 1930 are as follows:
CAPTAIN Ralph Damkroger, DeWitt end, will be acting captain
in the Husker's opening game with South Dakota next Saturday.
Damkroger Named to Lead
Huskers in Opening Tilt
210 pound end Ralph Dam
kroger, DeWitt. has been named
to captain the Cornhuskers in the
first game of the 1949 football
schedule.
Damkroger will lead Coach
Bill Glassford's men against
South Dakota next Saturday at
Memorial Stadium.
Ralph has the unique distinc
tion of never playing high school
football before coming to Ne
braska U. He lettered three years
in basketball and track and four
years in softball but never
played on the gridiron since De
Witt never fielded a football
team.
One other honor the big two
year letterman holds is that of
scoring two touchdowns against
Minnesota. In 1947 Damkroger
caught two touchdown passes in
the Gopher game.
Damkroger and his mates
might have a little trouble tel
ling the opposition from their
own team next Saturday. Since
the Dakotans have only one set
of jerseys and they are red, the
Huskers will wear white shirts,
ordinarily worn on the road.
Rich Reese is latest member of
the squad to be forced to quit
because of injuries. Rich, Omaha
sophomore tackle, suffered a
broken ankle in scrimmage Tues
day night.
Footballers on the doubtful
list of Saturday's game are Bob
Schneider, Nebraska City end,
Cecil Voils, Lincoln end, Don
Strasheim, Kimball fullback, and
Virg Adle, North Platte tackle.
Charlie Toogood, tackle from
North Platte suffered a lip lac
eration Saturday but will prob
able play next week-end.

Patterson's Defending Mat Champs
Bolstered With Eleven Letterinen
Eleven lettermen from Coach
Pat Patterson's defending Big
Seven wrestling champions will
be representing Nebraska on the
mats again this year.
Patterson has five individual
weight class champions returning
for 1949-50 competition. Herb
Reese, Omaha footballer, won
third place honors at last year's
National Collegiate tourney in the
176 pound weight division. He
also was conference champ at that
weight.
Other conference champions re
turning are Bob Yambor, 121
pounds; Mickey Sparano, 136
pounds; Mike DiBiase, heavy
weight, and Lou Caniglia, 114
pounds'.
Six more lettermen will be back.
They are the following: H. Gilli
land, 136 pounds; Bob Russel, 145
pounds: Al Johnson, 155 pounds;
Earl Schneider, 165 pounds; Don
Strasheim, 165 pounds, and J.
Scharf.
Ed Lane, 145 pounds, leads the
group of outstanding sophomores
that won numerals as frosh last
year. Lane won the Copple tro
phy, awarded to the outstanding
freshman wrestler, last year.
Don Rauh, Rich Reese, Wells
Obrian and Don Vermillion are
the other sophomore hopefuls.
Coach Patterson is very inter
ested in all men not out for other
sports at the present time. All
men interested in wrestling should
report to him in the Coliseum. The
team is starting out easy. They
practice three times a week, main
ly on fundamentals.
The coach doesn't feel that
wrestling in Nebraska is up to
the standard that he would like it
to be He hopes another Big
Seven championship for Nebraska
is in the offing. Only a few
schools in the state now have
wrestling as one of their major
sports.

Own Version
Of Bell Tower
Soon University of Nebraska
students will be scurrying to and
from classes to the tune of chimes
playing from the new Mueller
Caiillion tower.
For classgoers at Kansas State
however, it will be the same old
story for the 83rd year.
Yes, for 83 years down at Man
hattan the changes of classes has
been tolled out on a bell hanging
in the tower of Anderson hall.
The bell was cast in 1861, at a
cost of $175. It was given as a
donation to Bluemont Central
college originally, but was trans
ferred to Kansas State in 1876.
Weighing 213 pounds, the pro
ject of moving the bell from its
original perch in ah old barn to
Anderson hall was quite a prob
lem in 1882. The feat was played
up highly by local newspapers at
the time
