Battle of Debate
Team Reported in
Debater's Annual
They've got to be good to see
their stuff in print. For the sec
ond consecutive yera, the univer
sity debate team has had at least
one of its battles reported word by
word in the University Debater's
Annual. This year it was the
Kansas State-Nebraska conflict of
Jan. 8.
One reason why the Husker ar
guers were particularly good at
this particular debate: The sub
ject concerned the AAA, and the
team had just completed a tour of
open forum debates in Iowa, where
the audience took part in posi
debate discussions.
Harold Soderlund and Herbert
Kaplan are the speakers who will
go down in history as the authors
of the two speeches bn the ques
tionResolved: That the Agricul
tural Adjustment Administration
of the federal government should
be abandoned after the crop sea
son of 1935.
This year Prof. H. A. White, de
bate coach, expects a large num
ber of university men to turn out
early in November, perhaps en
couraged with the hope of similar
honors.

Scintillate in Yearling Backfield.
By Dick Kunzman.
Ed Wcii-'s freshmen will have to do a lot of improving
before the even battle which they will give the varsity by the
first of November becomes a reality instead of a dubious proph
ecy. When Coach Bible's lads had finished with them Saturday
afternoon on the Memorial stadium playground the scoreboard
read Varsity 34, Freshmen 0." O

blackshirts who left the field Sat
urday after the annual Intraschool
struggle had made a definitely bet
ter showing than those who went
to the showers in the practice
scrimmage Wednesday evening.
But the four or five thousand spec
tators who snuggled under the sta
dium balconies and watched the
freshmen ahutout, felt that Coach
Bible's warriors will still be a dif
ficult team to lick in November
for the freshmen, at least.
Varsity Shifts Into High.
Shooting thru a touchdown in
each of the first two quarters and
three in the third, the Scarlet and
Cream warriors found the new
coming gridders, except for an oc
casional sally which brought well
won applause from the crowd, a
comparatively easy party to crash.
Featuring some nice ball handling
and running by Lloyd Cardwell,
Bob Benson, Jack Dodd and Toby
Eldridge, the varsity backfield
shifted into the highest gear so far
this season. The lateral passing at
tack, usually the most effective
weapon of the Biblemen, function
ed only spasmodically in the first
half, and end line charges account
ing for most of the yardage com
pilation. The "get rid of it quick"
combination worked to better ad
vantage in the last period, even the
freshies catching the disease and
working a first down or two with
it.
Jerry LaNoue, injured in Wed
nesday's scrimmage, did not get
into the game, which probably
kept the losers from getting a
worse licking.
Varsity Line Dull.
But while LaNoue's ball carry
ing pals were more than holding
up their end, the linemen fell down
on the job. Considering that the
line opposing them was about as
experienced as a minister in a
night club, the varsity front fence
fell down noticeebly from the ped
estal of improvement which had
been built up for them earlier in
the season. It lacked the up and at
em' sparkle of the frosh wall,
which held the varsity to no gains
on fieveral occasions in the third
quarter.
Callihan, Andreson and Tucker
were the names to remember in
the vearline backfield. All dis
played an excellent kicking ability,
and when the ball went any place
against the varsity it was usually
one of the three 4 who took it, or
helped take it there.
Charlie Brock did the best work
in the losers' line, but Bob Mills at
end was all that could be desired
of an inexperienced flankman
Bcrnle Scherer did about the
best job of catching Henry Bauer'o
floaters of any of the wingmen.
Paul Amen snagged a 50-yard
heave from Jack Dodd in the third
Quarter, and Elmer Dohrmann
completed a number of cremtable
lateral jugglings in tne rounn, dui
both Dohrmann and McDonald
missed flyers that they should
have terminated in touchdowns.
Noticeable in the last half was
Marv Plock, Llnocln high sopho
more who is playing his second
term on the first year team, Plock
and Mills dished out some satisfy
ing lateral exchanges before the
final gun and the former ran rings
around the veteran line twice be
fore finally being stopped.
Francis kicked off for the vars
ity, sending a 65-yard spinner
down the field to Hoffman, who
returned it to his own 19-yard
stripe. The prep graduates couldn't
do anything with the ball ana An
dreson kicked from his 10-yard
line to the varsity 44. Benson,
Cardwell. and Francis blasted
their way thru to the 2-yard door
steD and Benson took it over for
the first tally of the afternoon
Francis kicked coal, making the
count 7 to 0.
Two New Combinations.
Two new combinations manned
the breaches in the second quarter,
Coach Bible putting McDonald and
Hale at ends, Mehring at center,
Holmbeck and Ellis at tackle, Mc
Ginnis and Glenn at guards, and
Howell, Douglas, Eldridge, and
Dodd in the transportation depart
ment. Ed Weir's new line roll call
had Shindo and Richards, ends;
Elliot and McPherson, tackles; and
Shrike and Sauer, guards. Charley
Brock. Columbus all-state center
for two years, stayed at his post
tion, while the backfield enlist
ment3 were Saunders and Long at
half. Tucker at quarter, and
Phelps at full.
A kicking splurge paved the
way for the next varsity counter,
Douglas and Tucker getting off
some nice spirals in the middle
arena. Ralph Eldridge, stopped in
his tracks on Tuckers last boot,
got vengeance on the next play.
Sweeping right end from his own
27-yard line he got as far as the
frosh 20-yard sector, when he was
tackled, and. fumbling, KnocKea
the ball to Jack Dodd, who con
tinued over the line. The total
yardage was 73 yards, the longest
gain of the afternoon. Kianage s
kick was no good, and the first
year team looked a 13 to 0 margin
in the eye.

turn as the season progresses. By
the last of October such trivialities
as unemployment and new deals
mi,, ovist or thev may not. wno
cares? We're playing football! By
Thanksgiving, it's mark of poor
citizenship ana Bimm
punishable offense if you don t
have an All-America selection of
your own. On New Year's Day
most of the English speaking
world takes time out and stands
hv tn reverent silence for two
hours while twenty-two young men
play tag in the Rose Bowl.
And yet, it's hard to understand
whv football continues to occupy
its place as one oi me,
most popular of sports.
It's not hard from the stand
point of the fan. There's probably
more glamour, excitement and
pure thrill packed into a promi
nent Saturday afternoon battle
than in any other branch of ath
letics. But why the young men who
set off the fireworks continue to
do so is a source of perpetual won-
It was about 1740 when Sir
Thomas Paine philosophized to the
effect that "Bowling is to be ab
orted of entirely, as la football,
which is a brutal contest, and of
fensively abusive." We" don't know
anything about bowling, but the
lnstv vounc males of the two cen
turies since have failed to heed his
preachment in regard to looic-au,
and so our thirty-thousand seated
stadiums are still being enlarged
Perhaps the English philosopher
was a little too araenr. in nis con
Hemnntion. He was an active poli
tiriHTv nerharjR the standards of
that calling influenced his view
point in other matters. But grant
ri that football is not quite as
dane-erous as a World war or a po
litlcal brawl there is still much to
be said for Sir Toms criticism. It
is a rough game and a scrappy
one. When eleven athletes, well
muscled, well instructed, and in the
nink of condition, make up their
minds to go some place, and the
eleven other similar athletes make
up their minds just as definitely to
stop them, there's going to be trou
ble somewhere.
Nor does leathsr armor help
very much wbtn twenty-one huge
fellows in a hurry to arrive at the
same spot at the same time, and
you happen to be the spot. And
even when there's only' one oppo
nent charging toward you at full
speed, especially if he happens to
be a 200 pound, 10 second fullback
spurred on by forty or fifty thou
sand voices pleading for a touch
down, the three things which
might happen to you are noneof
them fun.
