Marquette Ends
Drill Sessions

DALLAS. Tex, Dec. 31.-Mar-
quette and Texas Christian Uni
versity tapered off today for their
clash in the Cotton Bowl here
tomorrow.
The Milwaukee football squad
finished heavy work yesterday
with a long and varied drill,
Coach Frank j. Murray first
sending the squad through a
thorough offensive review and
then switching to defensive assign
mentS.
An injury to his neck received
in scrimmage may keep Howard
Hansen, star sophomore tackle,
out of the Marquette lineup,
trainers said today. Roger Lumo
will replace him. Myles Ref
senior center, is an almost certain
starter at one Of the guards. Reif
and Center Bunny Schoemann
are strong against forward passes
and will be counted on to stop
the hurting of "Slingin' Sammy
Baugh.
From Fort Worth where T. C. U.
wound up it's drills yesterday, came
word Coach Dutch Meyer is far
from satisfied with the defensive
work Of the Horned Frogs.

Ed Kurtkyd Star
In Hoyd Victory

For the second year in success
sion, the Georgetown University
basketball team defeated the
Violets of New York University. A
crowd of $4,000 bowling fans saw
the HoyaS come from behind at
Madison Square Garden last night
with five quick goals in the first
10 minutes of play, take the lead,
and then grimly hold on and pro-
tect their edge to the end. The
score .7aS 46 to 40.
Fred Mesmer, coach Of the
Hoyas, sent Ed Kurtkya and Henry
Bertrand into the game in the
first half when New York led by
a score of is to 9. At once the
Hoyas flashed brilliantly and soon
were out in front.
Kurtkya and Murphy were the
leading scorers for the Hoyas,
each accounting for II points.
Petroskey and Shore were active
scorers.
It was a biff-bang game from
the start. Georgetown scored
first, but then New York Univer-
sity rushed back and went to
work, going away from the Wash
ington boys as if they had the
situation well in hand.
MeSmer, however, had the COM
plete answer and he used his re-
serves so wisely that winning
combination was welded together
right on the courts.
The basketball team Of Leland
Stanford came out of the West
and trimmed the BlackbirdS Of
Long Island University. who had
gone undefeated in 43 contests.
Angelo Luisetti, the sensational
forward of the Stanford team,

Award Morris
Sport Trophy

NEW YORK, Dec. 81 G.N.sJ.
It was a foregone conclusion that
either Glenn Morris or Jesse
Owens would receive the James
E. Sullivan Memorial trophy an
nually awarded to the one who
by his performance, example and
influence as an amateur has done
most during the year to advance
the cause of craftsmanship"
Speculation became certainty
today when a tribunal composed
Of outstanding leaders Of sport in
all parts Of the country awarded
the trophy to Morris by a vote
of 1,106 to 1913 for owens.
The closenesS Of the vote and
the fact that the committee in
awarding the trophy stressed the
point that Morris had resisted
all efforts to make him turn pro-
fessional," indicate that Owens
might have received the award
had he not decided to turn pro

Boasts Five

BY FRANK BUCK" ONEILL

The red-clad Huskers Of Uni
versity Of Nebraska, swinging
through the East on one Of the
most interesting trips the Lincoln
boys have ever enjoyed, tackle
Temple University on the basket
ball court in Philadelphia to-
morrow, and then swing into the
Capital for a battle with George
Washington on Saturday night.
The game between the Colonials
and the Corn Belt boys is set for
Tech High Schools spacious gym
nasium.
Nebraska did lot of playing on
the way to the Nations Capital.
They met Loyola at Chicago, and
then dropped into Cleveland to
crimp the aspirations Of Western
Reserve. Canisius College at Bur
falo, st. Thomas at Scranton, and
the Temple game round out the
warm-up schedule for the Huskers.
The Huskers have a young, out
experienced team to throw against
the Colonials on Saturday. w. H.
Browne, Nebraska coach, has let-
ter man for every position, but
the probable lineup against
George Washington will include
only two seniors. In basketball
as in football, the tendency is to
get away from the boys in the
graduating classes.
Parsons Strong Fellow
They seem to play lack-lustre
football or baseball or basketball
as the case may be; seemingly
well pleased with the fact that
they've won their letter, and all
other things being even, have their
place clinched on the team.
One of the men whom the Co
lonials will have to watch from
start to finish is Bob Parsons.
Parsons is a junior and plays
forward or guard with equal abil-
ity. Last year the kid was deSig-
mated as the best sophomore baS-
ketball player in the Big Six Con-
ference. He was a member Of the
State championship prep school
team before matriculating at Ne
braSka. He is a brother Of the
famous bud" Parsons, football
and basketball ace at Nebraska
not very long ago.
Built for the game, Parsons
stands 6 feet 2 inches in height.
Last year he was the high,scoring
guard of the conference, and his
work in early games this year indi-
Gates that he has lost none of his
ability to get that ball through
the hoop.
Floyd Ebaugh, 6 feet 51a inches
in height is center for the HuSkers,
and If there are any little tricks
about the tap-off job that this
boy hasn't mastered, they haven't
come to light recently. For in
stance, in the game against Uni
versity of Montana, Ebaugh was
in action just 18 minutes and
scored 13 points. His great height
gives him an edge of majority 0f
his opponents. One of Ebaugh'S
strong points is his ability to take
the ball off the back boards and
drop it through for points.
Only 6 Feet 4 Inches
And if you think that Ebaugh
Is the only one you will have to
watch, be advised that the Husk-
ers abound in talent. There is
Elmer Dohrmann, a junior who
won glory in Nebraska as being
the frs Nebraska athlete to win
four varsity letters. He is great
basketball player, throws the jave-
lin on the track, plays end on the
football team and is an outfielder
In baseball. In his odd moments
he maintains a high scholastic
standing.
Harry Sorenson, a senior, prob
ably will play one of the guard
positions for at least half of the
game. He is a guy 6 feet 4 inches
and weighs 1914 pounds.

Sheridan County Harvest
Started This Week

Farmers in some parts of Sheri-

combines and binders salvaging
what there is left of once prom
Using crop. The harvest is exces-
lively early due to the long stretch
of drouth and torrid temepra-
ture.
Harvest is on in Dagmar and
the southeastern and southwes-
tern parts of the county. Some
fields are being harvested near
Plentywood.
The first load of new wheat for
the season it is reported, has been
delivered at the elevator at Re-
serve. It weigher 50 pounds to the
bushel and come from a field
which yielded 8 bushels to the acre.
Harvest will not be general in
the county for a copule Of weeks
yet. The farmers are now busy
with haying. There will be a very
short hay crop in the county, and
unless the recent rains produce
forage crops and recover the pas
lures, there will be a very serious
shortage of feed and pasture the
coming winter.
