EDGE OH WEIGHT
Nebraska Outweighs Tigers
By Two-pound Margin
On Each Man
Nnhraska has the weight advan
tage on Missouri but Coach Bear?
is not trusting to that advantage to
mean anything in the Tiger-Husker
clash at Columbia this Saturday. The
Nebraska e)ven had a big advantage
over Iowa State, outweighing the
nvrlona team 16 pounds to the man
toiriTr Innk at the score, it
vuw
appears that the two football elevens
were fairly evenly matched.
Line up for. Saturday:
Missouri pos. Nebraska
Farr . Lee
Lucas t Richards
Drumm g Holm
Morgan c James
Miller g McMullen
Smith t Randels
Gibson Lawson
Flamank q Brown
Diemund h Presnell
Clark h Howell
Mehrie f Oehlrich
Tiger Lin Heavy
This is the probable line up for
the Missouri-Nebraska game Satur
day although there may be some
changes made in the Husker lineup
before then. The average weight of
Miziou's line is 196 pounds while
that of Nebraska is 192. The average
weight of the Tiger backfield is 166,
Nebraska 178. The average weight of
the Husker eleven is 186 and Mis
souri 184, giving the Cornhusker
squad a 2-pound advantage.
It is the line that looks as if it
needs attention after the Cyclone
Husker game last week and it is in
this department that Nebraska falls
behind in weight against Missouri.
If Nebraska has the usual fight that
is characteristic of Husker elevens
it need not worry about being out
weighted by the Bengals, though.
Bine Howell, hard hitting hall
back on the Husker squad, was back
in the moleskins again last night aft
er resting up for two days. Howell's
injured rib is coming along in fine
shape and the injury list in the Corn
husker camp is now reduced to a
minimum. Bearg put the squad
' through a hard scrimmi'w last night
' with the freshmen.
Ends Are Drilled
The novel idea worked out by the
. coaching staff of giving the f rosh
Missouri sweaters made the scrim
mage more realistic. Presnell was
getting off some good punts and get
ting thsr ends down on the punts is
. ! the one big idea that Benrjr js trying
i to get across to his warriors. Bearg
trained his ends on getting down on
the punt and the kickoff and yet the
flashy Johnny Miller returned sev
eral long ones in Saturday's game
last week, bringing one back into
the Husker territory for 35 yards.
Taking a look back into the past
the record books show that Nebraska
and Missouri first tangled on the
football field in 1892 when the Hus
kers took a 6 to 0 victory from the
Mizzou eleven. In 1899 the Tiger el
even annexed its first victory from
Nebraska, winning the game 11 to 0.
It was not until 1925 that Missouri
could beat the Cornhuskers in foot
ball again, and they repeated in 1026.
It has been two years since Ne
br tka has taken the count of Coach
Gwinn Henry's Tiger eleven and the
contest on the Tiger's home field
Saturday will have a lot to do In pre
dicting a Missouri Valley football
champion for 1927. The Mizzou elev
en took the Kansas Aggies into camp
last week and Nebraska did likewise
to the Iowa State eleven.

IN THE VALLEY
By JACK ELLIOTT
Although the dope backet favort
the Mizzou Tiger in Saturday's all-
important clash, Gwinn Henry can
never say as be did when asked about
the Kansas Aggie-Missouri game,
"They never have beaten me have
tby?" For up until juit two year
ago, the Husker eleven would taie
the count from Missouri nearly every
season. But dope i with the Tiger
this year and it claims to have the
Nebraska jinx. Let's go Cornhuskers
and break the Tiger jinx.
October 8 will be a big day for
Kansas University as that is the date
set for the Wisconsin-Kansas clash
at Lawrence. Five hundred rooters
from the University of Wisconsin
will accompany the team to the Jay-
hawker state. The interest in this
game has worked up to such a great
extent that the merchants of Law
rence have decided to close their
stores. As has been the custom in
extent that the merchants of Law
will have eats for the parading stu
dents and after the bon-fire there
will be a wild rush for the free
shows, the Daily Kansas predicts.
The Wichita Beacon at Wichita,
Kansas, took a wise crack at the Big
Six when they suggested editorially
the name "Kimona" for the new con
ference to be formed with the with
drawal of the six schools from the
Missouri Valley. The name is derived
from the initials of the six schools:
Kansas, Iowa, Missouri, Oklahoma,
Nebraska and Kansas Aggies.
The outlook for the Missouri game
at Columbia is everything but bright
with the two stellar Husker half
backs nursing injuries received in the
Cyclone game, while the Tiger eleven
came through the Kansas Aggie clash
in perfect shape without an injury.
The Mizzou aggregation will be re
inforced with Clark back in the game
against Nebraska. Clark is the out-
tanding Tiger back and was on the
bench during the Aggie game Bet
Couch I razg's worries do not stop at
just having two of his best backs on
the injury list. The gloom darkens
as Bearg looks around for an avail
able punter. Presnell's weak ankle
puts the punting department in the
Husker camp as a minus quantity.
Although Glenn worked out in the
practice session last night his work
was ineffective as the result of the
bruised member. Blue was in the
togs last night for the first time
since the clash Saturday and did very
little work in scrimmage.
Combined with the above-men
tioned injuries nearly every member
of the squad is suffering f .ra a co'd.
Today is the last practice session be-
fore the Huskier squad will entrain
for the lair of the Mizzou Tiger for
the crucial Missouri Valley clash of
the seasoa. Eyes of all sport critics
and coaches in the Valley will focus
on the Missouri-Nebraska clash at
Columbia in an attempt to pick out
an early season Valley champion.
On paper Nebraska has the dope in
its favor but on the practice field it
all goes the way of the Tiger en

Garbed in Foe's Jerseys, Freshmen
Battle Stubbornly with
Varsity Regulars
Eleven yearling gridmen, garbed In
Missouri jerseys, put up a stubborn
battle against the Varsity team Tues
day afternoon on Stadium field. Pass
ing from punt formation featured the
freshman attack.
The regular Varsity lineup opposed
the youngsters, while they themselves
were shifted and jerked quite fre
quently. As a counter attraction,
two freshmen elevens tangled on the
South stadium field.
Broadstone, who received a brok
en nose a few nights ago, appeared on
the field wearing a nose protector
and served on a tackle berth through
out the scrimmage. Nelson, small
halfback, gets the call regularly the
last few nights and shows ability in
the ball lugging department
"Blue" Howell and Ted James
served as kickoff men for the year
lings. Previous efforts by Long and
Frahm were not too successful, so a
draft on the Varsity's kicking supply
was deemed necessary..
Famous Coach
Declares Size
Not Essential
New York, Oct 4. Football is
rapidly becoming a game for the lit
tle man as well as the "bifc fellow,"
according to William W. (Bill) Rop
er, Princeton's famous coach, whose
book, "Football Today and Tomor
row," will be published tomorrow by
Duffield and Company of this city.
The notion that a player must be
husky to excel at the game is no
longer borne out by the facts, he
asserts.
"Small men all over the country
are making big reputations," Roper
declares in his book. "Size or build ;
as a necessary factor in football is
being discarded.
"The little fellow is compelled to
face great odds. This has sharpened
and developed his competitive in
stinct Things don't come quite so
easy for him. This means harder
work and therefore greater develop
ment. He must use every resource,
and this means that his timing is of
ten better and surer and there is less
waste in everything he does.
"The tall, rangy fellow has a long
er stride, but he doesn't get there
any quicker, or get any more revolu
tions per minute, as an engineer
would say, than the little fellow.
"Invariably the crowd is with the
game little fellow. For, after all he
exemplifies the courage and spirit
that warms the heart of the specta
tor. "The utility of the brainy little
fellow is appreciated by the modern
football coach who realizes that intel
ligence, skill and speed can be con
densed into a small wiry body. And
gray matter is not determined by
bulging muscles and deep chests."

The method of operation of the

Approximately1 800 students have left
books in this ' exchange, the amount
of books totaling considerably over
2500.
The amount of money taken in
from book sales totals over $1800.
All these transactions represent a
total saving to the students of over
$1000. An illustration of the cheap
cost of operating is shown by a $2.00
book which was sold three times at &
loss to the owner of only 35 cents,
including the commission paid the Y.

circulated through the exchange. The
only limit to the service of the stu

The exchange is maintaining this

students who desire to economize on
the cost of books.

HARES PROYB TOO
FAST FOR HOUNDS
Eighty Take Part in First Chase Held
at Nebraska; Sneathen and
Dexter Elude Pack
Eighty men competed in the first
hare and hound chase conducted by
Coach Henry F. Schulte. The event
was considered a success, considering
the fact that all the runners did not
have a complete understanding of
the rules of the chase.
Sneathen, Phi Delta Theta, and
Dexter, Theta Chi, acted in the role
of the "hares." They successfully
eluded the "hounds," thereby scoring
ten points each for their respective
fraternities. Sneathen was a middle
distance man on the freshman track
squad of last year. Dexter, fresh
man cross country man of last sea
son, was a member of the Theta Chi
cross country team, inter-fraternity
champions of last season.
Etherton, first of the "hounds" to
finish, competed for Group III. Jan
uelwisz, Phi Kappa, and James, Al
pha Theta Chi, finished second and
third respectively.
Next Chase Tuesday
The next chase will run off next
Tuesday afternoon at 4:30 o'clock.
If there is any change in the date it
will be announced in the Daily Ne
braskan. Ail men are urged to
bring cars if possible so there will be
plenty of transportation for taking
the runners from the stadium to the
course.
A complete compilation of the
standings of the groups and frater
nities was impossible last night. Sev
eral contestants placed who were in
eligible for competition. Varsity men
are ineligible for competition. A
check-up on the number of runners
competing for each fraternity or
group was also lacking, which will af
fect the final standings.
A list of the first twenty "hounds"
finishing follows with the points
earned by each man.
