The Weachors crowd closed in. A
special cordon of police stormed
the field. Driving the crowd before
it. A few of the more cnthusias
tice swung from the goal posts,
pitting their strength against that
of the solid set foundations.
Scarlet jerseys lay on the
ground where they had been fell
cd, or had thrown themselves. By
a miracle, a fateful turn of the
kaleidoscopic natural wheel of for
tune, a certain tie game had been
turned into defeat. Dejection
swept the Cornhuskers faces,
their chance for unmatched glory
snatched from them.
But mighty as Minnesota was
in victory her nineteenth consec
utive triumph Nebraska was
mightier in defeat. Twice the
Cornhuskers were backed to their
goal line twice the ponderous
fast, fiercely charging Gophers
were outcharged, outplayed, driv
en back. The second time was
but a few moments before the
winning touchdown was scored.
Injured Sam Francis, suffering a
badly twisted ankle, ended the
threat by intercepting a pass over
his goal line. A few seconds later,
supported by two team mates, he
hobbled from the gridiron.
Cornhuskers Outplayed.
The Cornhuskers were out
downed, out yarded, all the statis
tics pointed to Minnesota superi
ority. But the 5.000 Nebraska
fans who aggressively strode their
way in to Minnesota's scenic sta
dium will not admit that their
team was outplayed. Superior in

power, yes; but the Gophers did
not match the Cornhusker spirit.
Nebraska played an almost per
fect defensive game against seem
ingly insurmountable odds. Twice
in the first half, twice later in
the game the Cornhuskers stub
bornly halted Gopher touchdown
marches. On three specific oc
casions they took to the air to
drive Minnesota back . on her
haunches, and came within inches
of scoring.
When the Minnesota-Nebraska
game of 1936 is rehashed by his
torians the recorders must write
that the Cornhusker team which
was edged in the final minute of
play was one of the greatest ever
to grace a gridiron under the scar
let banner. And its game wT.h
Minnesota must be labeled as one
of the real "thrillers'' of the year.

finest veretebrate collections from
the early Pleistocene in the coun
try. Among the largest bones re
covered were those of mastodons,
and the smallest, fossil frog and
mice skeltons. Another of the
more interesting finds was the
bones of a giant camel, which is
considerable larger than that of a
present day camel. Several jaws
and parts of giant beavers as large
as Shetland ponies, are also prize
possessions of the 1936 summer
party.
In all. more than five tons of
bones have been shipped to Lincoln
frc-ti both the Broadwater and
Crawford sites. The university had
another field party in the vicinity
of Marsland under the supervision
of Grayson Meade, accompanied
by Walter Stolle of Lincoln and
Harry Tourtelott of North Platte.
In Schutzs crew were K. L.
Blue of Lincoln; Thompson M.
Stout of Lewellen; Frank Crabil
of Red Cloud; Gordon Graham of
Scottsbluff; David Abbott of Den

Kerl of West Point, and Fred
Schall of Princeton.

OF TRACKSTER POSTS
Record in Try-Outs Give Men
Starting Berths on Cross
Country Cinder Team.
Wilson Andrews, junior from
Ponca, and Fred Matteson, senior
hailing from Sutton .assured them
selves of starting berths on the
Cornhusker cross country track
team by finishing first anil sec
ond, respectively, in tryout trials
held Thursday at Memorial Sta
dium. These marathon men, along
.h three others yet to be select
ed, will represent Nebraska in the
two-mile run against Kansas State
here, Oct. 17. Those who attend
the Nebraska-Indiana grid war
fare will be given a rare treat, as
this transcountry clash between
the Wildcats and Coach Henry
Schulte's delegates will be staged
between the halves of that game.
Competing against, six other
sterling tracksters, Matteson in
itiated the race by setting the pace
for the first mile, then relinquished
this duty to his brilliant team
mate, Andrews, for the last four
laps. With a closing sprint of 40
yards, Andrews was clocked at
10:07, while Matteson was record
ed at 10:19. Both of these re
sults appeased Coach Schulte, hut
both runners promised their in
structor that they would turn in
more creditable times in the dual
against Mentor Ward Haylett's
Aggies.
v rea rvocn, up ana coming
sopnomore, lead two other class
mates, Art Hendrickson and Paul
Owens, by virtue of his running
the event in 10:43. Hendrickson
was timed at 11:10 and Owens at
11:19, which were good results for
performers who have not been
practicing as long as their more
seasoned varsity competitors, Mat
teson and Andrews.
The status quo of Bob Morris,
half-miler, is still problematical.
Bob's chances of participating in
the impending embroglio lie in the
hands of his physician. Should
Morris receive consent from his
doctor to take part in track meets,
much worry will be liberated from
Pa Schulte's mind as Bob is
counted on heavily to help the
Huskers topple the highly touted
Haylett-instructed charges.
Another varsity track letter
winner. Bob West, did not re
hearse in the test trials. However,
"Pa" has soaring hopes that West
will come out and practice, with
the ultimate consequence that he
may earn a place on the cross
country squad.
It is superfluos to say that the
Aggies are doped to trip the
Huskers. Track seers do not fore
cast a Cornhusker victory over
the Kansas State clique. The
wearers of the scarlet and cream
know that they are not conceded
much of a chance in vanquishing
the Wildcast, and so they are
working that much harder to re
verse the picked victors.
Win or lose, Coach Schulte's
lads will make the meet anything
but a cinch for the visitors. You
know, there is such a thing as
fooling the soothsayers. Who
knows, maybe the Nebraska men
will do just that trick.
