This Saturday Memorial stadi
um will be the scene of the sec
end annual Varsity-Alumni foot
ball game, which is one of the
features of the All-Sports Day.
The game will start at 1:30
p. m., and it should be a thriller
from the opening kickoff to the
final gun. Coach Glassford Is go
ing to employ a four-platoon
system instead of the usual two
platoon system. The four pla
toons will consist of two offensive
units and two defensive units. If
the same spring squad is still
around next fall, he plans to use
this four platjon system against
the University's opponents.
This game will climax spring
training, which will end next
Wednesday. Spring training was
previously scheduled to last til
. a week from Saturday.
Coach Glassford explained the
shortened drills, by stating: "The
squad has been faithful at prac
tice and worked hard."
When asked about the current
freshmen players Glassford said,
"The Freshmen have pleased us.
They are willing and they are
working hard at it"
Good Ball Game,
"It will be a good ball game.
The Alumni has a lot of experi
ence, which will be a good test
for our boys.
"The big problem with the
Varsity, is the lack of experi
ence. They need a lot of work.
We haven't got the polish yet,
but we expected to show a great
deal of improvement by next
fall."
The boys have been working
hard, and have been putting a
lot of effort into it"
Starters
While Glassford will employ
all four platoons, he stated that
he would wait until Saturday to
decide which unit would get the
starting position.
He said, "They are all well
matched and all will see plenty
pf action."
Tickets for AH-Sports Day can
be purchased from any "N men,
the ticket booth in the Union or
at the Coliseum. Besides the foot
ball game, the ticket will also
admit the purchaser to a track

Kansas and Nebraska and a

Information on
Softball Asked
By Sports Staff
The Daily Nebraskan Sports de
partment is asking- the help of
the University's intramural par
ticipants again. This request is
directed to those interested in
their softbaU teams.
Due to the inability to obtain
full information concerning the
softball contests played each
night merely by referring to the
scorebooks, the sports staff is
asking for such information from
the teams themselves.
Because of the hundred and
one different ways a Softball
coorebook is kept and because of
the many tames when
be available
a complete
tent scorer will not
for all the contests,
story cannot be obtained by tak-
jng information from the official
scorebooks.
Complete Coverare
A complete coverage of the
pring sport is the aim of the
sports staff in making this re
quest. The winning teams will
undoubtedly want to see that
their victory is written up in the
paper each day and so their co
operation in this matter will
greatly help.
This is what we want you to
do. Each day, a small article
should be submitted by the win
ning team on the game. This ar
ticle should contain the score by

teams, including the winning and

would also be appreciated.
These articles should be
"brought to the sports desk any
afternoon.
Simple Scorinr Method
All the games will not be cov
ered this way, however, and so a
special plea is entered to all
tcoren in all the contests.
AH experienced scorers should
continue to score the contests in
liis usual way, but this simple!

Howie Pollet, who has been a
St. Louis Cardinal holdout since
early season, signed a contract
with Owner Fred Saigh after a
7'i minute conference.
Manager Marty Marion smoothed
the way for the signing.
Saigh had previously announced
that he did not want Pollet on
his team and would put out every
efforttotrade him. Pollet an-
swered that this was the est
news be had heard all spring." ,
about the situation after the con
ference. Saigh asserted that it "took us
about 7 minutes to get to
gether." Marion and Pollet had dis
cussed the problem of the pitch'
ers contract before they went in
Saigh's hotel room.
The hostile remarks between
Saigh and Pollet in the news
papers last week followed pub
lication of a story which quoted
Pollet as saying his record last
year was a result of the injury
riddled club.
He won 20 games in 1MB but
only won 14 games while losing
13 last season.
The southpaw said be would
need a lot of conditioning but
that he would not force himself
and risk injuring his arm.

Stay Unbeaten
The Betas, keeping their un

viously unbeaten Student Union,

Squad Games
To date the teams has been
restricted to a couple of intra
squad games and on the whole,
the results were encouraging. The
keystone combination of Jensen
at short and Reynolds on second
looks very strong.
Reynolds around the second
base sack has made much im
provement in his play. Difficul
ties with the important double
play which he had in earlier ses
sions appear to be ironed out. His
ability to get rid of the ball
quickly for the twin kill will be
an effective defensive weapon.
The pitching department has
had little opportunity to show its
stuff, so a question mark remains
here.
Al Benjamin, a big righthander
from Michigan, has looked very
imnressive during his brief hurl
ing performances. The Michigan
lad, after suffering from a rag
arm. came up with a good fast
ball and a back-breaking cure.
Top Checkers
With Benjaman, McCoormick,
and Kopf as the top chuckers,
and Mulling, Bunsen and Ander
sen as potential comers, the
mound staff offers a great deal
of possibility.
Bob Lohrenberg will likely
gather in the back-stopping
berth. Sharpe is inclined to go
along with his hitting and re
