Science hall. Head Coach Fred
Dawson and his ctaff will take
charge of the team on Friday,
September 15, the first day that
the Valley rules allow the
coach to assume direction of
the gridsters.
With twenty letter men and as
many promising freshmen of last
year fighting for positions on the
1922 Cornhuske r gridiron machine,
prospects for a victorious eleven have
never been better in the history of
the Husker institution. Head Coach
Dawson and his staff of coaches will
take charge of the men Friday, Sep
tember 15, and regular practice will
start at that time.
Between twenty and thirty men are
working out on the drill field every
night under the direction of Captain
"Chick" Hartley. The workouts con
sist largely of kicking practice and
forward passing. A feature of these
workouts has been the turnout of al
most all the veterans, a condition
which can probably be explained by
the fact that competition for places
on the team will be intense, and the
belief that no man has a cinch.
Coach Dawson is expected to have
some difficulty in filling the gaps left
by the graduation of Captain Clar
ence Swanson, John Pucelik, and
Floyd Wright. The places of these
stars will be hard to fill, but with

The return of Henry Dnssett and
Fred Thomsen, letter men on the 1920
team, hns given Scarlet and Cream
stock another boost. Thomsen played
halfback on the team two years ago.
His work at ripping through the line
and around the end was sensational,
and Husker followers are hailing his
return with glee. Thomsen may work
on one of -the ends this year, as he Is
fast on liis feet and a demon at the
forward passing game. Bassett, tip
ping the scales at 19S pounds, is
lineman of unusual ability, and is ex
pected to fill one of the gaps on the
line.
A fierce battle for positions in the
backfield is promised. Pete Preston
regular quarterback last year, has
Lewellen and Russell snapping at his
heels. There will be no less than six
candidates for the halfback positions
this year. Dave Noble, whose work
last year earned him a place on one
of Kckersell's all-western teams, is
back, and in better shape than ever,
The DeWitz brothers, Herb and Rufus
have been working out throughout the
summer, and are in excellent condl
tion. Dewey Hoy, a two-year man,
has toughened up considerably during
the summer and is faster on his feet
Big Red Layton is expected to report
in a few days. Lewellen, a punter of
unusual ability, may also play at
half.
Hartley In Training.
Captain "Chick Hartley," whose line
plunging at Pittsburgh last year
gained him nation-wide praise, will
hold down his old place as fullback.
Hartley has been in training all sum
mer, and is in fine fettle. Hartman,
letter man last year, will also be
out for the fullback position.
The struggle for births on the line
promises to eb a battle royal At the
ends, Leo Sherer, regular enr last
year, Klempke, and Thomsen, letter
men, will ontest with McAllister, Lev

Dawson Reviews
For the Coming
By Fred T. Dawson.
"Our Nebraska football team made
a pretty good record last year, and
we are naturally quite proud of it.
We hope that the high school stn
dents throughout the state, also, are
proud of it and we want the Nebraska
high school athletes all to feel that
their goal in football is to make the
Cornhusker team. 1 want to impress
on both our own students and the in
coming high school athletes that here
at Neraska we do eerything in our
power to bring cut the best there is in
each player. We want our boys to
realize that whatever we are able to
do is accomplished through good,
hard work. Kvery candidate for the
team is given careful attention; play
ers are developed gradually and ac
cording to their individual ability. We
try to be patient with everybody and
to understand what each man needs
to bring him out. Very few of our
foot hall players come to us already
made; the vast majority are devel
oped hero in college.
But there is always a tendency, after
a winning season, for overconfidence
to creep in on all sides a tendency
for people to take things for granted;
to assume that all we have to do is to
go out and play football and well win.
Thats overconfidence; we don't want
any of it at Nebraska. Overconfi
cause when you are overconfident you
fail to take advantage of all your
