gest that any Acbraska team has
ever tackled.
Games with Illinois, Northwest
em, Grinnell, Ames, South Dakota,
Oklahoma and Notre Dame are m
included in the schedule. The bas
ket ball season will probably start
December 10 with a practice game
in Lincoln?
On December ITand 18, Coach
Schissler hopes to schedule semi
practice battles with some nearby
college'. On December 26, the Corn
, husker squad of 12 member will
leave for Urbana, 111., where they
will go into training' with the I Hi
,v nois university team for nearly a
week.
To Play Illinois.
Nebraska and Illinois will mix in
regular games on the Urbana floor,
January 1 and 3. Then, it is planned
to take the team to Valparaiso, 111..
for gatues on January 4 and S. Coach

,with some other-teams in Illinois
for January 6 and then meet North
western at Evanston the following
day. j
Returning to Lincoln, the Ne
braska" quintet will play Grinnell,
January 14 and IS. The following
week-end. South Dakota will come
here for two games on Friday and
Sr.turday evenings. Oklahoma will
journey to Nebraska for two games

journey to Iowa for four games.
Tfie Cornhuskers will play at Ames
on February 9 and 10 and at Grin
nell on the o days following.
Notre Dame will make its annual
trip west the following week, nieet
,, itig the Nebraska team on the local

ka had no trouble in trouncing the
Catholic basket tqssers last year.
Meet Ames at Lincoln.
February 25 and 26 are open at
present. During tournament week,
the Ames quintet will travel to Lin
coln and do battle with the Corn
huskers basket-flippers on March 4
and 5.
With seven of last year's letter
nen back, four regulars and three
substitutes, Coach Schissler should
have little difficulty in building up a
team that will rival the victorious
- .-Nebraska team of last year. -
Bekins, the speedy center, should
be as good as ever again this year.
"Bek" wonva reputation of bis ac
I curate tosing fitld goals and free
throws andf his regularity in getting
tipoffs. This is Bekins' second year
of basket ball at the state univer
sityl . ' x
Capt. Russell Bailey js a speedy
guard who will fill one of the posi
tions near the opponents' goals' very
well. He will not have the assist
ance of his running mate, Schellen
berg, who graduated last spring.
Smith and Patty, two former
Omaha High school stars, are ex
pected to feature at the forward posi
, tions.-' They will be backed up by
Jungmeyer, a substitute center and
forward last year. Pickett, who
flayed forward part of the time last
year, has filled his qunta of years
at the sport and cannot play this
year.
Monte Munn at Guard.
Bob Russell, who showed consid
erable promise toward the end of
last season is in South America and
will not .be back to play until the
second semester begins, February 1.
Monte Munn, a substitute at cen
ter, and guard, will play this
, year." The big foot ball guard is
' fast and should make a favorable
showing. Dick Newman, also a
foot, ball man, will be fut for a
guard position. He was a 'Substitute
last year.
A jyimber of last- year's fresh
men will try for plices. Hartley,
halfback on the foot ball team, is a
fast man on the basket ball floor and
plays well at almost any position.
Mung,er, Carmen and Warren are all
promising prospects,
t Dobish, who played on the fresh
man team, has developed consider
able speed and weight since last
year and will rt a chance to show
his basket ball ability. Kohl and
Baleau are prospecrs from last year's
. yearlings.
Coach Schissler lost several prom
ising men when they followed Coach
Tommy Mills, to Beloit. Paynter,
who ' played substitute on the team
last year, Maxwell, Gardner and
Clyde Smith, freshman players, went
"with the former Creighton coach.

European cycling stars, inctuding
Oscar Egg of Switzerland, Orlando
Piani of Italy, Bob Spears and six
Belgians, arrived here today. They

Cambridge High school of Cam

the state last Thursday when it de
feated the Commerce High team of
Omaha in a championship game, 10
to 0. The OmahanS"journeyed to
Cambridge doped to bring back the
title.
Walter Eckersall
Selects All-Star Team
(Continued From I'age One.)
good advantage to shake off tacklers
and vasyfKcient with the stiff arm.
On defense he sized up plays quick
ly and directed his team to the dan
ger point.
Steketee of Michigan is awarded
the other half back position. While
not as sensational as the Ohioan,
the Wolverine proved a reliable ball
carrier and the best punter in the
conference. Although his punt in the
Ohio game may have cost Michigan
a chance ot a tie, the tault rested
with' the rightside of the Wolverine
line.
In addition to being reliable in ad
vancing the ball on either end runs
or off tackle smashes, Steketee was a
dependable field coal kicker. This
ability was shown in the Minnesota
contest, when he booted the oval
between the posts for the only score
of the game. He is heVvy and fast
for his weight. His defensive quali
fications match up with his offen
sive ability. '
Ralph Fletcher of Illinois is one
of the best field goal kickers in the
country, but his other qualifications
are not the equal of otlter backs.
Glen Devine of Iowa, Grausnick of
Northwestern, Elliott of Wisconsin,
and Williams of Indiana were among
other conference half, backs of the4
first water.
Crangle of Illinois should be the
unanimous choice of all critics for
the fullback position. What this
great player lacked in offensive abil
ity he more than made up , for in
defensive play. He probably ranks
with Tom Hammond of Michigan
and Marc Catlin of Chicago in this
department. The Illinois player,
weighing more than 190 pounds, hit
the line so hard that he frequently
made ground when opposition was
met. He also was a reliable man
it the interferences, and was of great
assistance in breaking up an oppo
nent's forward pass attack.
Sundt ot'Wisconsiivwas Crangle's
nearest approach. Ekbcrg of Minne
sota, who played a sterling game at
pnr hetore lie was smitea to iuu-
bnrk was another ereat plaver. Nel
son of Michigan, Willaman of Ohio
and Hanisch of Chicago were arrfong
other leading players in the position

On several occasions offensive teams

keep him out of the plays. Being

The other tactile position is
awarded to McGuire of Chicago. It
will b recalled that the Maroon

rinnl factor iu the line. II ! broke

Scott of Wisconsin. Goetz of
Michigan. Huffman of Ohio, Te

due played strong games ai me posi
tion all season, as did Risley of
Indiana.
Penfield.for Guard Post. '
Cant. Graham Bfcnfield of North
western is awarded the left guard
nosition. This nlaver was one of
the pain reasons for the Purple's
success this year. He played
strong defensive ajd offensive game

ins his teammates to greater effort's,
He was seldom kept out of a play.
TVin n'Vior cruarrl nosition is Pivcn
to Tierncv of Minnesota. Although
this player was member of a weak
team, few gains were made through
him. He alwavs commanded re
spect of opponents and a few gener
als elected to waste a down by send
ihc a play at him. .
Taylor of Ohio State played an ag
gressive frame all season, but had the
fault of leaving his position to soon.
This fault should be rectified next
year, when he should be among the
leading forwards of the west. ilcLaw
of Indiana. Hartong of Chicago, and
Brader of Wisconsin played a strong
game all year. .
v Depler Best of Finje Centers.
Captain Depler of Illinois is given
the pivot position, although closely
pressed by Buiige of Wisconsin and
Nemecek of Onjo State. The Illi

The Cambridge High eleven fin
ished the 1920 season without a de
feat tacked to its record. Besides
winning the state championship, the
team won the title of its section of
the state in easy fashion. Tho'mpson,
Ellingson and Rodwell were placed
on The Omaha Bee's all-star first
Commerce Gridsters
On All-Star Team
(Continued From Face One.)
Speicher, Bloodgood proved reliable
at all times and seldom failed to gain
ground when called upon to carry
the pigskin.
The fullbcak berth was awarded
to Meyers of Beatrice High, for his
ability at puncturing the line and off
tackle dives. He can pick holes andJ
knows whar hs do when he finds one.
Yechout of Commerce gave the
Beatrice gridster a close race (or the
first team and therefore -was placed
on the second team. The, Commerce
warrior played a steady game all sea
son and was one, of the best ground
gainers for the Commercial team
Tryba of Columbus was selected
on the second team for his line
plunging, open field rurning and
kicking. In Vryba, Speicher and
Yechout, the second squad has a
backfield that would give the first
string warriors plenty of trouble if
the two aggregations ever collided.
Speicher was chosen to do the punt
ing for the second team, while Ma
honey was picked as the booter, for
the first eleven.
Captain of Second Team.
Speicher is chosen captain of the
second team. He uses good judg
ment in placing his kicks and sev
eral times this year he called sig
nals when his team was in danger
and successfully steered his team
mates from the shadows of their goal
line. One of his chief assets is his
kicking ability. He kicked 31 con
secutive goals without a miss.
Rodwell, the speedy Cambridge
skipper, was almost the unanimous
choice for the position at quarter-i
back on the all-state first team. He
was pressed for his berth by Cam
ero of Commerce. The Caibridge
pilot is fast, handles his team well
and flips the oval fast and with ac
curacy. Camero is placed on the
second team and deserves the pilot's
job. He is fast, and can pass fairly
well.
Rokusek of Commerce and Elling
son -o.f Cambridge were selected for
the ends. These two wingmen are
speedy in closing in on punts and
are good tacklers. Carrol of Cam
bridge and Hansen of Commerce
were the choice of the coaches and
officials for the end positions On the
sbcond squad.
The tackles on the first squad
were awarded to Hepperlin of Bea
trice and Thompson of Cambridge
because of their steady playing all
season. The gridsters are good
tacklers and know how to break up
forward passes. Fackard of Lincoln
and Galloway of Omaha Central
landed on the second tean at
tackle. The Lincoln warrior is a
good linesman and plays the de
fensive and offensive formations well
as any high school player in the
state. The latter, while a marked
man in any game, is deserving of a
place on the second aggregation be
cause of his ability to break up plays
and tackle.
Krasne Lands Berth.
Kranse of Commerce was the unan
imous choice for guard on the firs'
team. This beefy Commercial w
rior was &ne of the main factor'.
Commerce's line and his sma?!
attack easily won him a berth on
team. Tschudy of Columbus
tips the beam at 170 pounds, '
heady player and good at brea
up plays and tackling.
Kase ot West .Point and llz'
of Commerce were picked or. '

cause of their hard playing all

Taken as a whole these two teams
would give any two squads of grid

Strict Rulings
Keep Wisconsin
Boxing Straight
Unlucky the Fighter. Who At
tempts to Buck Commission
In Badger State; Mujt
Keep Sport Clean.
V
For a number of years boxing has
been legal in Wisconsin, and, judg
ing by conversation with one of the
leaders of the sport there, it is going
to remain legal unless unforeseen ac
tion is taken to knock the present
law off the statute books. The rea-
son it is going to remain legal is
- -. :-, ---- - --j j
because those who control the sport
have been successful in keeping it
clean and they absolutely refuse to
reduce in the sligtest degree the
strict methods which were adopted
long ago.
It is the boxing commission which
iy deserving of all credit for what
jras Tlappened in the Badger state.
The commission has been responsi
bly for the clean nature of the sport
in the past, and the men who form
the commission will continue to rule
with a strict hand in order to keep
boxing as it should be. At the
head of this commission is Walter
Liginger, a man who knows sport
and by sport we mean not alone
boxing, but many other Unes ot ath
letic endeavor.
Liginger, as chairman of the is-
consin boxing commission, is tne
man who has done much to gain the
name of the iron ruler of boxintr.
He has been the head and shoulders
of boxing ever since the' game be
came lawful in the state, and his
methods have at times brought him
plenty of criticism.
It seenw that -Jfney" (we place
quotation marks here because those
to whom we refer consist of just
two classes of men interested in the
glove sport) do ,not believe m dis
cipline, and do not think that boxing
should be ruled with an iron hand
to keep it clean. y
The only trouble that Liginger
and the men who form the com
mission have had to contend with
has been mads by boxers and their
managers, acording to Liginger. He
says that this trouble never would
have cropped up, if the glove wield
ers and their managers followed the
laws as laid down by the stile and
the commission. When efforts were
made to override the powers in con
trol there was trouble.
That is the situation as it appears
in Wisconsin today. When one con
siders the success boxing has at
tained in Milwaukee," where the big
auditorium probably the finest spot
for the sport in the world is located
and in Kenosha, it is really remark
able that the sport goes along so
well without encountering greater
difficulties. It is not often that the
"comish" gets mixed in a jam with
fellows who take exception to the
rulings by Chairman Ligmgcr. But
when there is a jam it is a lead
pipe c'nch that there is going to be
a winner, and that winner will be
the body which rules the sport.

"Mully" to Leave Central High
Dr. Harold R. Mulligan; head
coach at Central High school, will
resign his position at the end of this
school year to take un aetive practice
of medicine. Mulligan has been
connected with the school since
1915, when he came here as coach
from Lincoln High school.
Mulligan is a graduate of Be

In 1915 his debating team won the

In 1910 and 1917 Mulligan pro
duced the best of foot ball teams that
ever renresented Central Hfrrh. The
teams won the Missouri Valley
championship both years.
1 he batket ball teams of 191Z and
1918 were of championship caliber.
His teams were runner-up for the
state title in these years. In 1916
