That Doghouse Gag Has Basis In Fact Hewitt, a fullback until two ago, got the highball sign when Ed Nyden received orders to concentrate on his scholastic work. Wally McDowell, halfback from Hardy, will do the same. Even though the change is only temporary, Coach Presnell is achieving what he wants. The Huskers, for the most part, are learning two assignments apiece. If the weather man co-operates to any extent, four additional scrimmages are on the books before the spring final drill, which is dated for Saturday, April 11.

Tigers Tire of Newsom; Shift Him to Senators AKELAND, March Louis (Buck) Newsom, the loquacious baseball pitcher, will do his talking now from Washington, where the competition from congress may be stiffer, but no doubt all the more fun for Buck. The Detroit Tigers, who matched Newsom in stubbornness over sa ary, if not in the art of discussion, sold the swashbuckling, 34- year-old right-hander to the Washington Senators last night and wrote off their last major holdout problem.

Unthinkable people who sneer at Williams should be season, during which Buck lost 20 games and won 12. In going to Washington, the veteran twirler strengthened his position as one of gypsies.

The game's historians say that Newsom has played with 15 teams since he broke into pro ball in 1928 with Raleigh, N. C. He was with Washington once before and the Tigers secured him from the St. Louis Browns in the 12-player swap of 1939. Finishing that season with Detroit as a 20- game winner, he then enjoyed his greatest year in 1940, climaxed by world series heroics.

There was talk here today that Newsom might not stay long with Washington. The Senators were said to be hopeful of trading him to the Browns for Third-baseman Harlond Clift. If that happens, Buck will be serving the Browns for a third time. He had pitched for them before going to Washington in 1935.

Two More Minor Ball Loops Decide Fold Up DURHAM, N. March 31 (INS) With two more minor baseball leagues counted among the war casualties, the number that will take the field this spring has been reduced to 31. President W. G. Bramham of the National Association of Professional Baseball Leagues announced that the Cotton States and the Ohio State leagues will not operate this year and that their players, who have not been disposed of previously, will become free agents.

The Cotton States league is composed of teams in Arkansas, Louisiana and Mississippi and is a class circuit.

Joseph, Mo. Looking Over In State High Circles By PAUL DINNIS. I IT one thing, another. First, it was the war emergency which directly affected athletic circles in Nebraska high schools by taking coach after coach into the service and causing an acute shortage of sports tutors. Now, in direct results are beginning to show.

Several coaches have been called to positions in other states to handle better-paying jobs. Latest loss is that of Charles H. Toms, Ogallala mentor who has resigned his position to handle the coaching chores at Kent high school, Kent, Ohio. Toms leaves next week-end to take over the job immediately. Pay of coaches, and, for that matter, all teachers, long has been a among Nebraska educators.

In ttys case, Toms reportedly is to receive a salary of $2,700 per year, almost twice the total he was accorded at Ogallala. HE man who is to be high school coach at Cairo, next year already has come in for his share of good-natured ribbing. He has assured the Cairo townspeople that he will right into the setup and get things on the right foundation early. The newly elected coach is Victor B. Pigg, present coach at Haigler.

Pigg has told Cairo authorities that he plans to move to his new location as soon as school is over, and will do farm work in that vicinity in order to become acquainted with his proteges-to- be. Needless to say, the plans of on a have made a big hit at Cairo. A RABID hotspot of basketball is the small town of Plymouth, Neb. People from miles around came to back the lads who had one of the best records of any team in the state last season Now the Plymouth Commercial club is sponsoring a dance April NEW YORK, March Louis, as was his wont, made his second meeting with Abe Simon just a synopsis of the first and after watching his condensed version, you have an idea of what kind of a fighter it will take to beat the champion. He'll be a sort of composite gent, with Billy speed, Max punch, durability and a six-shooter in each hand.

If Louis could be blindfolded, it might help to make it even, too. The amazing Mr. Simon again demonstrated that sheer size and strength and courage and durability enough. It must be a monotonous for Louis to keep replaying the same courses, although he probably gets some satisfaction in lowering his score each time. He practically made a hole-in-one when he met Buddy Baer the second time.

The talk now is that Louis and Conn will play a return engagement in June. But it is a little early yet to figure definitely on the match. After all, both Louis and Conn are in the army, and they go in to continue their routine business of fist fighting. It is doubtful if the army itself knows three months in advance where its men will be. He Likes Tough.

If the match does materialize, it will be a natural, although there is no reason to believe that Louis again better his score.

The Beavers should be versatile, inasmuch as each backfield player will be required to learn all four assignments, and each lineman will have to know a position on both sides of the line. Glenn Presnell, coach of the Huskers, need anyone to tell him about this versatility business.

By using both the single wing and T-formation, the Cornhuskers now have multiple assignments in learning one position. Just the same, when they finish their careers under Presnell, each is going to know plenty of football. 17 in honor of Coach Allen fine team Beatrice has announced its 1942 football schedule, adding a new team to the list of opponents New team is Auburn, which will open the schedule Sept.
