rt&ile.v and Meilena were at half
on the second squad, with Hecht pet

quarter and Crites, tTack man, at
fullback. Joe Weir and Collins held
down the ends, Scholtz and Miller,
tackles Swearingen and Gross at
Wnstounal, center. Kase
was put in as tackle later and showed
well.
Reealar Score.
Bloodgood and Dailcy pot away for
the best gains of the evening for their
respective terra. The regulars, after
considerable pounding: and much
work managed to put the ball over
the line.
Coach Dawson is working a num
ber of men at kicking. Eloodgood,
Weir, Locke, A. Mandery and Daile.y
are showing tip well as kickers and
from this group a reliable punter
should be developed.
Dawson was still enforcing the ab
solute secrecy edict. Newspaper men,
barred from the field Monday night,
were re-admitted Tuesday.
A number of plays are now being
developed for use against the Illini
and any other teams where they may
come in bandy. Nothing particular
ly in the style of a surprise is in
cluded. The gaps left by graduation last
year are going to be bard to fill.
Hubka and Ogden look like the pro
bable selections for guard. Hutchin
son and Captain Weir will almost un
doubtedly be back at center and
tackle, respectively, and Rhodes and
Robertson of last year's squad should
work at nds.
Give Possible Lineup.
In the backfield, A. Mandery and
Locke sbould work wall, with Dailey
and Mielent ready to step in and
take their places. Doug Myers, shot
putter and the only beavy man in
the backfield, should land the full
back berth, with bis team-mate at
Beatrice high school, Bloodgood, at
quarterback.
Orders for tickets for Comhusker
borne games have been coming in
fast, John Selleck, business agent, re
stated Tuesday. The offer to bigh
schools to admit their students at half
price bas met with a fine reception.
Orders are coming in daily. Among
the new schools ordering blocks of
tickets are Omaha, Columbus, TJni
versity Place, Fremont and Seward.
These orders are filled in the same
manner as all others, the best tickets
remaining being sent out. Orders I
must be on high school stationery and
must be countersigned by the super- j
intendent or principal of the school.
The stadium is now about half sold !
out for the Illinois game. The ticket j
sale has been unusually beavy and !
a capacity crowd is expected to fill
the Memorial Stadium when the Hus
lcers and the Illini come on the field.

"CHOPPY" RHODES
John "Choppy" Rhodes and R. R.
Robertson, ends from last year's
Comhusker team, are two of the all-
too-few regulars returning for the
1924 machine. Both men showed p
well in the 192S season and are x-
pected to go big again this year. If
the other candidates for the team

there would be little difficulty in
building a formidable team. Rhodes

year. Robertson received little no

ability at the wing position soon
gained bim recognition.
competition in the Missouri Valley
conference. From the reserves of
last year be bas O. H. Wilson, J. L.
Mildrexter, and A. W. Butcher, all
letter men and a number of second-
string backs.
Freshman ball-luggers of 1923,
however, probably will be drawn
heavily npon to fill up the backfield
forces. Owen Cochrane bas been
worked consistently at quarterback
and looks to be a '"find" as a triple
threat man. E. E. Feathers, full
back, C. N. Brion, S. A. Herren,
and Russell Hoffman, halfbacks,
have shown as likely candidates for
first team honors during tha prelim
inary practice.
Avoirdupois in the line some
thing lacking in Wildcat squads of
recent years will be furnished by
half a dozen sophomores who scale
around the 200-pound mark. Letter
men on the squad of line candidates
include Captain Lyle Munn and A. H.
Doolen, ends; J. W. Ballard, tackle;
R. V. Hutton, guard; and B. C. Har
ter and W. W. Perham, centers.
Prominent among the heavyweight
sophomore aspirants for places in the
forward wall are Orris Armantrout,
Si Tombaugh, E E Russell, F. F.
Scott, Theodore Guthrie, Glenn An
derson, and R. E. McRcynolds.

FOUR SQUADS REPORT
TO COACH OWEN FRANK
With freshman football prospects
at Nebraska the ongnwsi in yeans
Husker coaches look forward to the
development of clever freshman
eleven before many weeks nave
passed. Yearling candidates this fall
include numerous former bigh school
crid stars as well as several smaller
college performers and state confer
ence (rrid artists, tt would not be
at all bard to produce an eleven con
sisting entirely of all-state college
and all-state high school players.
Coach Owen Frank was in charge
of the first X-ear men last evening
being assisted by Racely, member of
Dawson's Varsity staff, Ross McGlas-
son, former Husker player, and
Coach Dick Newman of Hastings
high. Four full squads reported in
their rude equipment Tuesday af
ternoon and nearly as many candi
dates remain unequipped. It is like
ly that the entire freshman crew will
be issued better moleskins by next
week. No scrimmage work will be
undertaken until the entire squad is
equipped.
The quartet of freshmen teams
which reported yesterday afternoon
were put to work learning signals
and plays used by Illinois. Provid
ing the freshmen are fully equipped
by next week they will probably be
pitted against the Varsity using Ill
ini formations. The Big Ten un
balanced line formations were taught
the yearlings during the Tuesday
workout and various other Illinois
trick plays will be executed this af-?
temoon.
Among the latest assets to the
Husker green performers is R. A.
Randel's brother to the renowned
"Stiffy" Randels former all-Valley
end aid pilot of the Kansas Aggies
several years ago. Randels has en
rolled in the University this fall and,
tipping the beam around the 200
pound mark, should be seen in ac
tion under freshmen colors.
