In Saturday Tilt
PASSING GAME EXPECTED
Howell and Brown Suffering
From Injuries Received
! In Tiger Clash
I The Grinnell-Ncbraska game at
Memorial Stadium field Saturday will
be handled by Coach Bearg's re
serves according to word received
from the Husker mentor last night.
Bill Bronson will be calling signals
against the Pioneer eleven and Bearg
has a combination of two different
backfields that he intends to use
naiuck wic wiauua, UUh III
starting backfield is not known. The
backfield material the Nebraska
coach b considering is "Dutch'
Witte for one of the halfback posi
tions, with "Bud" McBride, Harold
Peaker, Clair Sloan or Victor Beck
for the remaining three positions in
the Husker backfield.
Sconds Show Up Well
The second string has been show
ing up in the practice sessions and
handles the passing attack that the
Husker coaches are drilling in like a
team of veterans. Two touchdowns
were scored on the Varsity eleven
Wednesday evening during the prac
tice scrimmage.
With either Sloan or Witte in the
Husker backfield the punting de
partment la considerably slrenglu
ened. Sloan and Wrtte are both con
sistent punters and Sloan is develop
ing into a good pass beaver for the
reserves. Bearg has shifted "Bud''
McBride to quarter. The Lincoln
high school star was barking signals
for the second string backs last night
on the practice field and may appear
in the new role as quarter in the
Husker-Pioneer game Saturday.
Peaker Works At Quarter
Harold Peaker was also in the
quarterback position last night dur
ing practice and wQl be in Saturday's
game. Passing will be one of the
main offensive cogs in Bearg's Scar
let machine against the Grinnell
eleven. The Iowa team will also
have a passing attack to launch
against the Nebraskans.
"Blue" Howell, who has been
carrying a bad side injury since the
Iowa State game is showing rapid
improvement and may see service in
the game this week. Bearg does not
intend to use many of his regular
eleven but plans to save them for the
crucial clash with Syracuse, October
29. Captain "Jug" Brown will be
the second backfield man who will
not play Saturday against GrinneD.
The Husker captain received an in
jured back in the Tiger game and the
coaching staff will give him a com
plete rest before the eastern game.
Earl Johnson will not handle the
Grinnell-Nebraska game but the job
as referee will be handled by Pete
Welch of Des Moines.
