First meeting on tlie gridiron
between Nebraska and Oklahoma
was Nov. 23, 1912, and the scene
was Lincoln and the final score
read 13 to 9 in favor of the Corn
huskers. Bennie Owens, the: first
coach to stress the use of the for
ward pass, directed the Sooners
while the Scarlet featurd a smash
ing game with Jumbo Stiehm
holding the coaching reins.
Oklahoma scored first with a 34
yard pass to Welath setting the
utage for a scoring play. Halligan
smashed during the second half
to tie the score and went over
again in the third period for the
winning touchdown, Courtright's
20 yard placekick accounting for
the other Oklahoma points.
The next game was the 1919
contest played in Omaha which
resulted in a 7 to 7 tie. Nebraska
was not in the Missouri conference
In 1920 and Oklahoma won the
title.
Lyman Shine.
Game in 1921, therefore, packed
plenty of interest and altho the
game was played on a rain soaked
field the Cornhuskers won 44 to 0.
Pete Preston was the backfield
daziler with "Link" Lyman (Ne
braska line coach i and Pucelik
shining in the line. Preston scored
three tallies on runs of 20, 50 and
65 yards.
Nebraska made its first trip to
Norman in 1922 and rolled up 22
first downs in winning 29 to 7,
altho Oklahoma led 7 to 6 at the
end of the first quarter. Weller
featured in the line.
Oklahoma drew the honor of
playing the first game in Memor
ial stadium and a crowd of 15,000
turned out to see Nebraska win
24 to 0 in 1923. Doug Meyers re
covered a fumble and ran 90 yards
to one of the touchdowns.
The Sooners won their first
victory in 1924, winning 14 to 7.
A Nebraska kick was blocked and
Woodall recovered and ran for a
touchdown after two minutes of
play.
Husker Win in '25.
Nebraska worked Rhodes and
Avard Mandery across for the
touchdowns which beat the Soon
ers 12 to 0 in 1925. The teams
didn't meet again until 1928 when
a record crowd of 25,000 at Nor
man saw Nebraska run away with
a 44 to 6 victory. The Sooners put
up a better fight than the score
indicated, the Huskers being "hot"
that afternoon.
The 1929 game at Lincoln
brought a 13 to 13 tie. Nebraska
had built its attack around Sloan,
who was unable to start. The
Huskers shot Farley across for
two touchdowns and the Sooners
worked a pass for one during the
first quarter.
Second Sooner victory came in
1930 when a fine Oklahoma team
headed by Bus Mills won 20 to 7
at Norman. George Henry Sauer
ran 47 yards for one touchdown
and then intercepted a pass and
ran 70 yards for the fourth period
touchdown which beat Oklahoma
13 to 0 at Lincoln in 1931.
Nebraska won the 1932 Big Six
title by beating the Sooners 5 to 0
at. Norman. Bernie Masterson
placekicked from the 15 yard line
in the third quarter and a wild
snap back brought a safety in
the fourth quarter.
Score on Kickoff.
The Huskers won a wild 18 to 7
game in 1933, when Boswell scored
in the first few seconds when Dun
lap failed to cpver the kickoff in
the end zone. Jack Miller scored
the other touchdown after a 72
yard offensive march and Sauer
placekicked from the 11 yard line.
Dunlap scored the solitary Sooner
score.
Nebraska won a tough 6 to 0
game in 1934 with Cardwell and
Francis featuring in a touchdown
march in the final quarter. Fran
cis went over for the tally. Meier's
line play stood out.
Last year, Coach Bible's Red
shirts won a 19 to 0 victory with
Lloyd Cardwell in the starring
role. Cardwell scored two touch
downs and a pass from Howell to
Scherer resulted in the third
counter. LaNoue in the backfield
and Shirey in the line were outstanding.
GREEK COUNCIL
(Continued from Page 1.)
Ing our support to Byrle Shuck, the
bar candidate for junior class pres
ident. 2. Class organization:
During last year's Progres
sive administration, junior and
senior class organizations were a
farce. In fact, the duties which
they have performed during their
stay in office have not been suf
ficient to warrant the holding of
an election.
Because of these conditions,
our candidates have pledged them
selves to fill their positions with
responsibility, and to do all in their
power toward instilling a spirit of
class unity into both of the upper
classes. This faction's class of
ficers, during their administration
two year ago, took steps to ac
complish these ends, but this year's
Progressive officers have com
pletely and neglectfully failed to
make any effort to further these
accomplishments. The election of
other officers is firmly advocated
to aid in the work of organiza
tion, and to give as many as pos
sible an active interest in the
classes.
3. Spoils system:
We firmly condemn the spoils
Fystem which has been used dur
ing the past year under Progres
sive officers in the allotment of
political plums. Our candidates
will not be bound by any party
ties and will be free to make their
appointments solely on the basis
of merit and not on political af
filiation. In this way, we will put
Into office vigorous men who will
work with the welfare of the school
at the bottom of all their actions
Instead of personal and fraternal
gain as their main motives.
4. Recall:
We propose a stringent sys
tem of recall to hold over the
heads of all lax officers and which
will abolish the present state of
lethargy prevalent in the student
government.
5. Social improvements:
Insofar as the present admin
istration has been unable to se
cure nationally known orchestras
for major social functions, we will
do all in our power to remedy this
unhappy situation.
We will work for the abolition
of antiquated and out-of-date mica
pertaining to social functions
which have prevailed on the cam
pus in spite of objections from the
students.
We advocatt a greater num
ber of all-university parties at
which unaffiliated as well as Greek
students can take advantage of
the superior orchestras that can
be selected.
6. University publicity:
Observing that the Nebraska
campus is virtually unknown In
many parts of the country, we will
organise junior and senior pub
licity committees whose work will
be to put tiis university in its
proper place in the eateem of the
collegiate world.
7. In order to accomplish the
ends which have been set forth
In the foregoing planks, we can
guarantee that the men who have
been placed on the ballot aa Inde
pendent candidates will take action
to do all within their capacitiei
toward the promotion of the pro
gram which has r.een set forth.
They will also retain an open
mind towards any proposals which
may come up and prove to be
of special interest to the student
bodv of the Universitv of Ne
braska. VOTE INDEPENDENT!
PROGRESSIVES
(Continued from Page 1.)
the pending project may become a
reality in the immediate future.
3. We sincerely believe that the
student publicity service that was
conceived by Progressive adminis
trators, and which has already
done much in increusing the pres
tige of the University of Nebraska,
should be expanded even further
than at present.
4. We should seek permission to
secure out of state orchestras for
any university parties whether
public or private.
5. The organization of the jun
ior and senior classes, unheard of
until two very capable Progressive
class presidents took office last
year, will be continued for the
current year. The plan of admin
istration is at present being con
sidered by the student council.
6. We pledge ourselves to give
our whole-hearted support to the
student council in its attempt to
clean up campus politics, which
were so under-hindedly carried on
following the inauguration of the
Greek council before last spring's
campus election.
Progressive candidates pledge
themselves 1o carry out this plat
form to a successful end.

"As We See 'Em"
by
Morris Lipp
The dope bucket was kicked
around plenty this past weekend
with upset following upset in a
clay of football comedy and trag
edy. "Clipper" Smith's "small but
mighty" band of Raiders put the
skids under Pitt'a national (and
city) title hopes with a thrilling
72 yard dash by a substitute
back. Duquesne won over the
Panthers 7 to 0.
After watching h i s golden
Gophers trample Michigan by a
mere 26 to 0 score and tie Notre
Dame's record of 20 consecutive
grid wins, Bernie Bierman still
thought his boys were "a trifle
worn out from that tough Ne
braska game." Poor Bierman.
Larry Kelley, headline-seeking
Yale captain, dropkicked a fum
ble to a vantage point, enabling
the sons of Eli to beat the Navy'a
midshipmen 7 to 0.
In the Big Six conference,
the boys must have been play
ing the form sheets, at both
Missouri and Kansas State took
it on the chin. Marquette's
Geupe touchdown twins beat
Wes Fry's lads 13 to 0, while
the Mizzou Wildoata dropped
their tilt to Michigan State 13
to 0.
Major "Biff" Jones allowed his
reserves plenty of rope in the
Jayhawk-Sooner game. That rope
and fifteen minutes of the first
Oklahoma team hung the hapless
Kansana 14 to 0 in the only fray
carrying with it Big Six titular
hopes.
Army scouted the Harvard men
for 30 minutes and then sent out
the heavy artillery. Army had
no trouble in winning 38 to 7.
The boys In the "crying
room" who played the parlays
had a tough enough afternoon,
but the Texas A. & M. boys
added another gallon of tears
when for the first time since
1924 they beat Texas Christian
18 to 7 in the aouthwest's stel
lar grid attraction. That makes
three straight thia year for
Texas A. & M.
Wally Wadef coach of the one
time famed Crimson Tide of Ala
bama brought his Duke Blue
Devils thru to a victory over the
previously unbeaten Georgia Tech
squad w'ith a 19 to 7 score.
On the far west coast Southern
California's record was blotted
with a scoreless stalemate with
Washington State. Washington,'
west coast leader, took Oregon
State 19 to 7 in another west
coast game.
A real upset occurred when
Lynn Waldorf's Northwestern
team eked out a 14 to 13 win over
Francis Schmidt's Ohio Staters, to
continue the Northwestern win
ning streak.
Incidentally, your forecaster,
along with Grantland Rice, Red
Grange, Bill Corum, Davis Walsh,
and Henry McLemore, missed
a-plenty of last week's games, but
comparisons reveal that nearly
every prediction expert missed
about the same games. Our per
centage of the 24 selections was
a mere 72, as compared with 89
percent and 82 percent in previous
weeks.
ME EASY
ASSIGNMENT AFTER
Coach Ely's 'B' Men Lauded
For Fine Showing in
Plainsman Tilt.
With the Nebraska Wesleyan
game of last Friday now a thing
of the past, Coach Lewrence Ely
ordered his Nubbins to relax yes
terday and invited them to join
Mentor Dana X. Bible's varsity in
watching movies of Saturday s
Nebraska-Indiana grid contest.
The Husker reserves looked
grandiose in their 35 to 6 victory
over the Plainsmen. The line func
tioned to the utmost satisfaction of
the coach, while the secondary
worked with a few intermittent
flaws. The aerial phase more than
brought good results, two of the
five scores coming via the ozone
route.
Latent vis in the forward wall
of the "B" squad was also taken to
light in the. Wesleyan fray. Perry
Franks, Rolyne Bosehult, Kenneth
Shindo, Asher Brown and Lloyd
Grimm made things lugubrious for
would-be Methodist line smashers.
In the backfield, Marvin Plock,
Bill Callihan and Thurston Phelps
handled their assignments in a
commendabb fashion.
Incidentally, in last Friday's
game all attempts for extra points
were successful which is a token
that the kicking department of the
reserves is very dependable. Also
nary a "B" punt was smothered,
while Jack Mercier, end, charged
in and snowed under one of the
visitor's kicks.
Two more engagements remain
on the "B" schedule Midland, at
Fremont, Oct. 30, and Doane at
Crete, Nov. 20. The win over
Coach George Farley's Plainsmen
was the second consecutive tri
umph for the Nubbins this year,
Kearney being downed 26-2 a few
weeks back to become the initial
prey.
8,500 PROGRAMS SOLD
AT SATURDAY'S GAME
Dr. L. G. Johnson, graduate
from the college of dentistry in
1935, who served an internship at
Forsyth Institute the past year, is
presenting dental health education
as well as administering dental
services to school children in the
rural districts in Virginia. The
work is being done under the di
rection of the government with the
approval of the state dental society.
Editor Petz Announces
Ratio Approximately as
Last Season.
Approximately 8,500 football
programs, "Tales of the Cornhusk
ers," were sold to Nebraska and
Indiana fans last Saturday after
noon. This is a ratio of about one
program to three admissions, not
including student and knothole
tickets, according to Harold Petz,
intramural athletics director.
Ratio of sales to admission has
been, this year, about the same as
last year. The weather conditions,
and the familiarity of the players
with the fans have much to do with
the sales.
A snappy, four color novelty
cover in a king of spades design
with a Cornhusker and a Tiger
player worked in. will adorn the
program for the Missouri-Nebraska
homecoming game. It prom
ises to be one of the most attrac
tive ever. In addition, there will
be the latest picture of the Senior
band in their new scarlet and
cream uniforms, and the Junior
band's picture.
The revenue from program sales
goes to the athletic department
and is used to help support wrest
ling and other non-supporting
sports. Men that sell in the stad
ium are selected by Harold Petz,
intramurals' director, from appli
cations made to him.
HUSKERS illEET UP
WITH STRONG FOE
M WEEKEND TILT
Forgetting Gopher, Hoosirr Games.. Cornhuki'i Get
Down to Work for Crucial Game Willi
kRilT Jones' Sooners.
Crucial game on Nebraska's re
maining grid slate will be Satur
day's contest with Oklahoma at
norman, and for this reason "post
mortem" talk on the Minnesota
and Indiana games is banned in
the Husker hangout.
"It'll be just too bad for Ne
braska if the squad and fans per
sist in rehashing the Minnesota
and Indiana games, especially if
we spot Oklahoma nine noints like
we did to the Hoosiers," declared
Coach Browne who scouted the
Sooners last week. "Oklahoma is
plenty dangerous this year and it
will be hot clown in Norman," he
added.
Oklahoma. incidentally. beat
Kansas 14 to 0, but the size of the
score is of little import. Coach
Browne saw the regular Sooners
play about one quarter while the
reserves were on the field for the
rest of the afternoon.
"There is no doubt," Coach
Browne stated, "but that Okla
homa is pointing for Nebraska.
They have size, speed, experience,
and good kicking and passing. Bill
Breeden is the important cog in
their backfield machinery. He
weighs over TOO pounds and stands
six feet two."
Oklahoma's Sooners. always
dangerous on their own lot and
ever so dangerous this year, have
had four games ot their season
played. They opened against Tulsa
and tied them. The Sooners were
victorious over Colorado and were
tied 7-up by Texas. Last week's
14-0 win over the Jay hawkers was
only a trial game for the Sooner
reserves.
One factor that stands highly in
Oklahoma's favor is the Oklahoma
heat that lingers thru mid-October
as if it were August. That makes
it difficult to the Cornhuskers who
have been having ideal football
weather for the past few weeks.
Naturally the Sooners are accli
matized to this heat, and the fact
that the Sooners are to play in
their home pasture bodes addi
tional evil for the Hufkers.
Nebraska's Cornhuskers and Ok
lahoma's Sooners now stand tied
for Big Six laurels and Saturday's
embroglio will more than likely
tell the story of who wins the con
ference title this year. Oklahoma,
like all the other circuit elevens,
would rather win from the Hus
kers than win all tne games on
their respective slates.
Coach Dana X. Bible started off
Monday's practice session with a
skull lesson with the quarter
hacks. F.d Weir showed the slow
motion pictures of the Hoosier
Husker game, while Nebraska's
coaching staff pointed out errors
committed by the huskers. A light
workout of limbering up exercises,
passing, punting and group work
was about all the Huskers did
Monday.
Coach Browne was busy with
Ed Weir's yearlings showing them
Sooner formations so that the
varsity can see Tuesday what the
Oklnhomans have to offer. On
W ednesday the Huskers will srim
mage in their usual midweek
niixup. On Thursday' Nebraska's
work will be polished up find on
Friday a secret signal drill will
be heid. The squad leaves late Fri
day and returns here Sunday.
No serious game injuries were
repotted to Trainer Cornell Mon
day, but it is a cinch that the
thirty brilliant minutes that Ram
Francis put in Saturday didn't
help to heal his ar.kle injury. If
you noticed closely, Francis was
taped to the knees Saturday to
prevent, any possible injuries.
