THE DAILY NEBRASKAN
THE BIG SIX
HAS GONE GIDDY.
Upsets Move
Experts to Chas,
But Fans Like 'Em.
By ARNOLD LEVIN.
The Big: Six this full is one mad
massy jumble. Percentage and win
and losa columns change with such
rapid gyration that the unsuspect
ing fan Is left quite giddy.
Before the conference venures
swung into battle array, Nebraska
was generally conceded top spot
with the defending K-Staters next
berth. Oklahoma followed, then
possibly Kansas, Iowa State, and
Missouri in order.
But the guys who scratched all
this out on paper last September
are scratching their heads in per
plexity with the start of Novem
ber. The critics saw a very straight
laced affair, but missed the cor
ners and curves that make inter
collegiate football the fascinating,
Interesting thing it is.
Upsets started when Kansas
State and Nebraska tied. They
, took another step toward messing
things up when Iowa State, sup
posedly with its best team in
eleven years, tied Missouri, and the
Hunkers romped Biff Jones et al,
19-0. They hit the absolute peak
when Kansas knocked off Kansas
State.
What's going to happen next?
Scribes are laying low. Nobody
wants to take a chance.
Nebraska should end Missouri's
undefeated record at Columbia.
But the Boy Faurot's team has
come up magnificently, and a tiger
with the smell of fresh blood In its
nostrils Is hard to stop especially
on Its own hunting grounds. They
held the Cyclones on the latter's
homecoming last Saturday, and
they're geared up for the Scarlet
Iowa State wasn't too easy for
Nebraska to lick. Missouri can be
an awfully big hurdle.
In the only other conference
game Kansas vs. Oklahoma at
Norman the odds would go Soon-er-ward
were it not for that last
K. U. victory. Oklahoma should
have too much, but Kansas, with
all her regulars in suit for the
first time last weekend, showed
that 'she had plenty too. The Red
lands will turn out en masse to
watch Biff Jones Is very popular,
and a victory would leave the
Sooners with a chance.
Biff Jones' 1935 Sooner bunch is
composed, . in the aggregate, of
sophomores. Which means that
the Biffer isn't confining his ac
tivities to this season, but is tak
ing a long glance ahead. He'll be
in Soonerland two more years un
der the present arrangement
That'll leave him as seniors the
boys he's got as sophomores now.
Combine what the Biffer can put
across in the way of football for
two years, a nice lot of sturdy,
willing young men. and what's the
conclusion? Right you are Okla
homa is going out after a title one
of these days and every harbinger
points to success.
Three sophs have been doing
some pretty capable work for

Bob Mehring, and Johnny Howell

at tackle, Mehring at center-guard,
and Howell has been calling sig

NEBRASKA COACHES FEAR TIGER AIR ATTACK
Freshman Gridders Shoved
Machine on Defense; Bauer May Start at
Quarterback Against Missouri.
Tn the middle of a chilly, bristling wind that turned into a
driving rain as the session closed, Dana Bible's Cornhuskers
Wednesday evening banged their way head-on through the last
heavy workout before the invasion of Don Faurot's Tiger den
this Saturday. Heavy sweat cloaks were Dame Fashion's pre-
. a.- lala inrkAri fY- ' -"
eively and defensively, through Ed
Weir's freshman platoons.
There wasn't any stopping of
the two varsity bands which threw
passes and laterals from all sides
and in all directions on the play
ing field. Likewise, the alternat
ing squads on defense did every
thing but push the freshmen
through the board wall enclosing
the practice tundra; but the aerial
maneuvers down below were the
treat of the afternoon.
Inasmuch as Don Faurot, al
though ill with influenze and han
dicapped in conducting the affairs
of his Missouri grldttis patients, is
expected to unleash much the
same sort of an aeroplane bat
talion as brought down a 6-6 tie
with Iowa State, Coach Bible is
planning to meet fire with fire,
and if the Huskers don't win the
Columbia fray this week end it
won't be because they threw too
few passes.
With the flipping arms of Sam
Francis, Johnnie Howell, and Har
ris Andrews hitting the mark on
deadly long range shots, two var
sity attacking elevens sped to
touchdown after touchdown
against the prep grads. On the
first eleven were Les McDonald
and Bernie Scherer, ends; Fred
Shirey and Harold Holmbeck,
tackles; Ladas Hubka and John
nie Williams, guards; Bob Mehr
ing, center; and Sam Francis,
Jerry Lanoue, Lloyd Cardwell, and
Johnnie Howell, backs. The sec
ond lineup comprised Paul Morri
son at center; Gus Peters and Ken
McGinnia at guard; Ted Doyle and
Bill Doherty, tackles; John Rich
ardson and Paul Amen, ends; and
Ron Douglas, Bob Benson, Toby
Eldridge, and Art Ball in the
backfield.
Coach Bible gave the works to
both sauads all afternoon, shoot
ing them through plays and as
signments and scrimmage with
rapid fire action. Yet they
skimmed through both offensive
and defensive duty with an ease
and lightness that may have been
immediately due to the bracing
weather, or to the presence of
George Saucr as referee, or some
thing else, but at all events bodes
ill for Missouri, even though Don
Faurot hasn't been beaten for
thirty games.
Lloyd Cardwell especially was
tearing up the sod, living up to
his Wild Horse reputation with
zooming end runs across the slip
pery field. The Seward mustang
tore along with a characteristic
happy-go-lucky grin that wouldn't
come off even when he was run
ning and zigzagging at top speed,
except on one occasion when a
frosh tackier caught him un
awares and brought him to earth
unexpectedly.
Both teams, however, both first
string and replacement, were click
ing with a well-oiled precision that
bespoke a fighting, spirited deter
mination on the Husker credit
book when they take their ac
counts to Columbia Saturday for
auditing. Faurot used more than

S40 en against the Cyclones, and
Coach Bible gave quite as much
attention to the resrve unit as to
the regulars, preparing a resruit
lineup to man the breaches if Mis
souri starts covering the field with
substitutes.
Jack Dodd, Gothenburg, Art
Ball, and Harris Andrews, Beat
rice, came in for a sizeable hand
ful of plaudits in the backfield.
All sophomore ball trundlers they
have been advancing rapidly in
the past week or two, and are
slated for action in the Missouri
game. Dodd played in the Okla
homa walkaway a few minutes,
but was retired in favor of a taller
man when the Sooners started fir
ing passes with reckless abandon
in the last quarter.
Harris, who wields about the
longest firing arm on the Husker
passing squad, was throwing them
60 and 70 yards with a wind at
his back, which Les McDonald
and Bernie Scherer just missed
contacting. Dodd and Ball were
turning in excellent jobs of lug
ging the hogs-hide all afternoon,
Dodd also playing an effective
blocking game.
Bauer Does His Share.
Announcement came from the
Husker training department Wed
nesday that Henry Bauer's
sprained ankle was not sprained
after all, but had a chipped bone,
which is worse. The medical staff
opined, however, that Chief would
be able to play Saturday despite
the injury, sustained in the Minne
sota game.
The regular Nebraska quarter
back was on the field in trench
coat and heavy jacket Wednesday,
discarding them early in the prac
tice to heave passes at McDonald
and Sherer and Elmer Dohrmann.
Chief completed nine in a row for
substantial gains before retiring in
favor of his ankle.
If Bauer is unable to make the
grade by Saturday, the quarter
back duties will fall upon sopho
more Johnnie Howell, who for
merly called the signals only when
Chief wasn't available, but has de
veloped into a threat in himself.
He has done the major portion of
the calling since Bauer was in
jured, and if Bauer's ankle doesn't
heal will be almost on a par with
him by the end of the season.
Coach Bible announced that
eight of the varsity players would
be loaned the B squad, which tack
les Wesleyan this Friday night
Those who will assist Lawrence
Ely in fUling the depleted B ranks
are Bill Doherty and Ted Doyle,
tackles; Gus ePters and Pat Glenn,
guards; Leland Hale, end; and Art
Ball. Allen Turner, and Harris
Andrews, backs. The Husker men
tor also announced that some of
the players would be available to
make the Columbia trip. The squad
which will probably be cut to 28
men, will leave Lincoln Friday
evening at 7 o'clock, and arrive
back in Lincoln Sunday morning
at 10:15.

Fifteen Day Excursion to

An undersized squad of Corn

by a schedule of twenty blue rib

slate is a fifteen day excursion to
the west coast, and ten big six con
ference tilts.
Thus far only fifty-odd suits
have been checked out, in com
parison to the hundred of this time
last year. Coach W. H. Browne
stresses the fact that freshmen,
especially, should utilize the pre
season workouts in order that a
smooth functioning quintet may
be formed to oppose the varsity.
All frosh not out for football are
urged to report. Uniforms may be
acquired in the coliseum dressing
room.
Two Week Trip.
The two week trip to the sunny
shores of the Pacific is an extra
incentive to cage aspirants. While
en route, Nebraska will pause long
enough to wage basketball wars
with University of Wyoming. Brig

of Utah, St. Mary's College, Stan

Denver. The journey west will be
terminated by the two games
played in San Francisco. A pair
of games with the University of
Kansas should be about as tough
as boarding house steak. No mat

new union building. The campaign
quickly received the endorsement
of the student body, as well as Ne

assistance in securing a PWA

Long a favorite idea of the
Alumni Association, which greatly
realized the need of a common
center of student interest as well
as an instrument of class organ
ization, alumni members threw
their support behind the cam
paign, assisting student leaders in
organizing the drive. The associa

the task of raising funds to fur

Administration Backing.
After encouragement was re
ceived from the administration
nnri Rnnrd of Ree-ents. the council
began a three months' drive for
petition signers, wmcn resuuea w
over sixty per cent, or three thou
rpHstered students asking
for the building, and pledging a
small registration lee wmcn woum
be collected over a period of time
to repay the federal loan.
Plans for new ouiiorngs were
drawn up by a Lincoln architect,
with provisions for study rooms,
reception lounges, party ballroom,
dining rooms and fountain, offices
for campus publications and clubs,
alumni offices, library facilities
and reading rooms, university -x
headquarters, and facilities for
other activities. The cost of the
building, $300,000, was to be fi
nanced by the government loan, a
larre nortion of which was an out
right building grant.
Need Arises.
Need for such a building was
emphasized among unaffUiated
groups, which have few accommo
dations now. A place to hold din
ners, parties, meet friends, enter
tain guests, and to make new
acquaintances does not exist for a
majority of Nebraska students.
Tbere is no common denominator,
it was declared, for student inter
ests at Nebraska. Leaders also
pointed out that organized groups
could take advantage of its facul
ties for parties, studying and rec
reation. Continuation of the campaign
was promised at the time of the
loan denial by Irving HiU, presi
dent of the student council. Both
political parties, particularly the
one now in power, again placed the
issue prominently in their fall elec
tion platforms. Recent agitation in
student pulses concerning lack of
barb organization and need of bet
ter housing facilities have all
pointed to a union building as a
solution. Thus enthusiasm is again
developing, this time obviously for
a final encounter with the last re
maining obstacle preventing suc

Intramural Champions Beat
Runners Up 13 to iz in
Extra Session.
That Acacia is the 1935 intra
mural touch football champion was
decided after they played off the
10.12 tie with Siema Alpha Epsi-
lon yesterday to win 13-12. Acacia
tied the final game up Tuesday by
slipping over a toucnaown in me
last thirty seconds. Two quarters
were played yesterday in an at
tempt to determine the winner,
iir. ax neither team scored each
was given six downs and the one

one point.
Not until the last team had
taken their downs was the cham
pion decided, for both played thru
two preliminary quarters with
neither gaining an advantage.
Sigma Alpha Epsllon took their
six downs first only to throw them
away in incomplete passes. After
four fruitless tries, Acacia man
aged to complete a five yard pass
to end the conflict.
Acacia elected to defend the
north goal, giving them the bene

Smith. Acacia completed a twenty

dropped two attempts. As the first
quarter ended they made a desper

they had the wind. Dick Smith"
sent the whole Acacia team down
the field while he threw them a
long pass. It went over the Intend

down by a S. A. E. man just as the
period ended.
It began to rain Ice as Acacia
took their last chance. The ball
was too slippery to pass, anJ
