McDonald, Douglas Catch
Howell's Flips for
Needed Scores.
By Morris Lipp.
Surmounting a nine point lead
that the Hoosiers tallied in the
first half, Coach Dana X. Bible's
Cornhuskers came back in the
last two quarters to score two
touchdowns by passes to win 13 to
9. Over 33,000 fans jammed Me
morial stadium to watch the Husk
ers fight it out with the Hoosiers
Saturday.
"There were two games today,"
Coach Bible told pressmen after
the game. Indiana won the first
one and we won the second."
And that just about tells the
entire story of the contest. The
Cornhuskers lacked the scoring
punch thruout the first half, while
the inspired Hoosiers did what
they pleased during the first two
quarters, including the scoring of
a field goal and a touchdown.
Huffman Played Great.
Led by their great quarterback,
Vernon Huffman, who plays as if
he were Jay Berwanger (ex-Chicago)
and Red Gray (Oregon
State) combined, Indiana swept
down the Memorial Stadium field
in 9 minutes and five first downs
to score three points. George Mil
ler, Hoosier center, made the con
version. Huffman passed and ran In the
second quarter until the Hoosiers
were ready to put the ball over
for a touchdown. Nelson Beasley,
one of the Big Ten's finest ends,
got in the clear and Huffman
heaved him a perfect pass that re
sulted in the Indiana tally. Les
McDonald broke thru to block Mil
ler's attempted placekick.
Half-time Pep Talk.
What Coach Bible told the Corn-
husker's during half-time will
probably never be known, but his
talk must have turned the tide.
Not only that, but Ftamblin' Sam
Francis, Nebraska's fullback who
suffered a leg injury in the game
against Minnesota, started at full
back in the third quarter, to re
vive the lagging Cornhusker spirit.
Sam's appear
ance in the
Husker lineup
brought pro
longed cheers
from the multi
tude and a new
attitude toward
the Hoosiers by
the members of
the Nebraska
eleven. More
than likeiy, the
Hoosiers didn't
rare for Sam's
appearance, as
ne was largely SAM PRANCIS
responsible for from unrn Journal
the Indiana downfall. In short,
Francis proved to be Nebraska's
"sparkplug."
Francis Leads Offense.
Nebraska's offense began to
click as soon as Francis returned
the Hoosier kickoff to the Ne
braska 31. Francis faked, gave
the ball to Cnrdwell who in turn
lateralled to Powel bringing the
bull to the Nebraska 4S. Cardwell
went around end for nine and then
hit the line for a first down while
the crowd roared its approval.
A series of line plays involving
Cnrdwell, Francis and Douglas
brought the ball into scoring terri
tory, but a pass from Francis to
Indiana took the ball on their
own 25.
Huffman, Fowler and Norton,
Indiana backs, took turns at try
ing to probe into the Husker line,
but each one of them met a stone
wall. Fowler was forced to punt
and Nebraska took the ball on
their own 45.
Douglas made a yard at center.
Howell took the ball from Francis
and skirted Indiana's left end to
advance the ball from Indiana's
46 to their 30. Francis's pass to
McDonald was good for 16 yards.
Francis and Cardwell made several
more yards in line plays. Howell
tossed a perfect forward to Mc
Donald who was in the end zone
for Nebraska's first touchdown of
tthe tilt. Francis placekicked the
extra point with Howell holding.
Cardwell Breaks Loose.
The Cornhuskers kept forcing
the Hoosiers back in the latter part
of the third quarter, while Huff
man attempted all sorts of plays
against the Huskers. Taking the
ball from their own 40, the Bible
men staged another touchdown
drive. Francis did most of the
ball lugging here and brought the
ball to the Indiana 23.
In the opening plays of the final
quarto, Cardwell advanced the ball
to the Indiana 10 in a nicely exe
cuted lateral play. Three line
smashes by Francis netted 5
yards. Howell once more faded
back to pass and dropped one into
Douglas' outstretched arms for the
tally. Francis' attempted place
kick was no good.
Indiana Aerial Attack.
A Husker lead was the incentive
for an aerial attack by the Hoosiers
with Huffman doing the passing.
Huffman attemped pass after pass,
but few were completed. Kender
dine was Indiana's best pass re
ceiver who managed to snag sev
eral. Last few minutes of the game
saw most of the action in midfield.
Whenever the Indians got -possession
of the ball, they attempted to
pass. When the Huskers had it,
they played safe and killed time
with running plays.
Upon being congratulated for
the fine showing of his team,
Coach "Bo" McMillin accepted the
well wishers' sayings, but contin
ually muttered about the strategic
errors his Hoosiers committed, es
pecially in reference to being
"sucked in" on pas defense.
Coach Bible thought that Ken
derline, Captain Dal Sasso and
Huffman were Indiana's best men,
and rightly so. Huffman gave a
great performance as the Hoosier
field general and No. 1 ball car
rier, while Dal Sasso's line play

All Huskers Starred.
For Nebraska every man was a
star in his position. McDonald and
Dohrman handled their flank posi
tions admirably well. Shirey and
Doyle plugged the tackle berths.
Game Captain Douglas' blocking
and ball-running are deserving of
much praise, while Johnny How
ell's quarterbacking and passing
were virtually flawless. Cardwell,
as usual, played a brilliant game,
getting away in his own inimitable
style for long and needed Husker
gains. Harris Andrews, who
started at left half, gave a good
account ot himself din ing the first
half.
