and third teams yesterday lied
Mentor Jones very much since
these same groups floundered
about In Wednesday's rehearsal.
Nary a score did the varsity re
serves get from the freshmen yes
terday, the first stringers having
obtained the 12 points.

Fred Shirey, cleared the way for j
the varsity's first touchdown as
Quarterback Howell had to plunge
a scant 3 yards to the pay terri
tory. Johnny Richardson's con
version kick was blocked.
Harris Andrews broke loose on
a 15 yard trek to give the varsity
its second tally and a 12-0 lead.
The varsity did not attempt to
make the extra point, and gave
the sphere to the freshmen.
Leading by two touchdowns, the
first stringers were taken out and
replaced by the second varsity
squad. It was against this club
that the inexperienced, but rugged,
yearlings obtained their touch
down as Overstake took a pass
from Jackson. Preston skirted
right end for the freshmen's sev
enth point.
Biff Jones Incensed.
Incensed over the playing of the
second team, Mentor Jones threw
in his third varsity outfit to see
what it could do against the ram
pant frosh. The third stringers,
however, fared no better than
their predecessors, and offered lit
tle in the way of playing which
would cause any preceptor to
smile.
For the first time in many
weeks, a team had a punt blocked
yesterday. Fred Shirey, burly var
sity tackle, broke thru the line
and smothered one of thr fmsh
squad's punts.
Winds Aid Punters.
High winds aided mint pi a In
getting off long spirals. Howell
ana Anciieson have been showing
up best in the kicking department
and will undoubtedly do plenty of
booting for the varsity in its '37
encounters. Adna Dobson, a
tackle from Lincoln, and Johnny
Richardson, end from Eau Claire,
Wis., have been showing skill in
placekicking.
Tomorrow afternoon at 2 p. m.
at Memorial stadium, the varsity
will tangle with the frosh in a 40
minute battle. Admission to the
contest has been set at 25 cents.
Preceding the varsity-frosh mix,
the six man grid squads of Ches
ter and Nehawka high schools will
put on a game. This fracas is
booked to get underway at 1 p. m.
BASKETS WILL REPLACE
LOCKERS IN COLISEUM
New System Will Decrease
Thefts, Provide Extra
Storage Space.
The lockers have been removed
from the boy's locker room in the
coliseum and baskets have been
j substituted. While the student is
I engaged In sports the baskets are
j checked with the clerk.
I Reasons given for removing the
j lockers are to prevent petty thiev
ing, facilitate cleaning, provide ex
tra space for ping-pong tables,
; and easier control of university
' towels.
j For nearly four years the bas
ket system has been used by the
varsity football team and has been
so successful that John K. Selleck
decided to install the system in tne
I locker room for swlming, tennis,
boxing, and wrestling students.
I Little cost was entailed in the
1 exchange as the lockers were sold
' to high schools and individuals,
j nearly defraying the cost of bas
1 kets.

To Kim or not to Run
Long-buried hopes for a repub
lican return to power are being
revived, with the democratic split
and the admitted concern of the
administration over lost party sup
port. Plans for a mid-term repub
lican convention are in the air.
Local and state leaders are op
posed, but a poll of 11,000 officers
of republican clubs and other party
organizations show 94 percent in
favor. Former President Hoover's
secretary says that "Hoover is not
a candidate" for the next presi
dential nomination and "has said
so a dozen times." Hoover's stand
is apparently somewhat different.
He Is quoted as being heartily in
favor of an off-year convention,
and to have said that "any man
who says he doesn't want to be
president is untruthful to start
with." Apparently, the former
chief executive has aspirations,
and opposition from party chief
tains will not be enough to deter
him from making a try for top
position.
President Ughls Polio
Himself a sufferer from infantile
paralysis for 16 years, President
Roosevelt is instigating a national
foundation to direct and unify the
fight against the disease which has
cost the lives of a large number
of persons. Studies of medical
aids, measures for making victims
economically independent, and an
extensive educational campaign
are being provided. To the admin
istration for a really worthy proj
ect go the plaudits of a grateful
people in afflicted areas.
Clergy Stages Sil-Doun
Moses in his ten mandates for
human behavior neglected to insert
a "Thou shalt not stage a sit-down
strike" item. And so Rev. Mr. Al
well of Philadelphia has his wife
and daughter in the parsonage,
from which they refuse to move,
while the minister instigates a
move, or rather a refusal to move,
in protest against non-payment of
hack wages. His wife anil daugh
ter are stationed in the parsonage
ami refuse to move, while the min
ister goes looking for a new posi
tion. Recourse to an all-church pie
supper and basket lunch has been
made, at which members sought
amicable settlement, but to no
avail. The Rev. Mr. Alwcll is will
ing to help his erring people to
see the light, but It's up to them
to pay for the fixtures.

Weir Will Call Upon Six
Full Elevens During
Varsity Game.
The starting Freshmen lineup
for the varsity-frosh game next
Saturday remained in a muddle
yesterday with yearlings four and
five deep in most positions still
making a strong bid for the honor.
Six complete teams of Freshmen
will be lined up for the starting
lineup, according to Ed Weir,
head freshman coach. "We plan to
use practically all of the men
against the varsity," Weir de
clared. This will give the fresh
man coaching staff a chance to
determine what their charges can
do under fire.
The No. 1 aggregation which
will probably take the field is;
Prochaska and Hann, ends; Wilson
and Gauger, tackles; Muskln and
Lomax, guards; Meier, center;
Hopp, quarterback; Knight and
Newton, halfbacks, and Wlbbels,
fullback. Making particularly no
ticeable bids for posts on this
eleven are Thompson, tackle, who
may replace Gauger, and Le Roy
Farmer, halfback, who has been
giving Newton a run for his spot.
Prsdicts Ragged Offense.
Weir said that the frosh are ex
pected to be pretty ragged on of
fense. Due to the inexperience of
the players and the short notice
they were given to perfect Minne
sota plays, the frosh will undoubt
edly resort to a great deal of punt
ing and will use a minimum of
running plays. Weir did not state
whether or not the frosh would do
much passing.
Bus Knight and Vike Francis
are rated as the best kickers on
the freshman squad and will do
most of the punting. However, be
cause of the number of players
who will see action, other pros
pective punters may show up dur
ing the game. Weir and his staff
are confining their energies to the
perfection of this phase of the
game.
No Frosh Punts Blocked.
"In the past two games the
frosh have played against the var
sity, not a single Frosh punt has
been blocked and the boys are out
to keep this record," declared
Weir.
During the past two days, the
Freshmen have had little chance
to improve their game. Head
Coach Lawrence "Biff" Jones has
been using them as "live bait" for
much needed tackling practice on
the part of the varsity.
The entire frosh squad will as'
semble at the stadium this after
noon for the taking of group
pictures.
"I Went to Europe to Relax,
Not Analyze," Asserts Scott
(Continued from Page 1.)
tics and economics brought back
by visitors to the continent. A per
son can still go to Europe for
recreation and enjoyment of the
interesting places it has to offer,
without forcing himself almost
overnight to become an observer
and interpreter of international
events and embroglios, he empha
sized.
Sails on Queen Mary,
Dr. Scott and his wife went over
on the Queen Mary the latter part
of August, spent the entire month
traveling through the continent
getting a general impression of
the scenery and people and re
turned to America on the Nor
mandie the first cf September.
"Lack of money need not keep
anyone from seeing Europe," Mr.
Scott said. "Cost of travel after
you once get across is lower than
in the United States, that is if you
do not demand American travel
ing standards. If you don't mind
crowding into a compartment with
perhaps a dozen perspiring, gar
licy Italians and their livestock,
and if you can endure bumping
and jolting on the hard wooden
benches, you can travel very
cheaply by going third class rail
road." He rated the cost of travel
lowest in Italy, where the govern
ment quotes half-rate on railway
fares to foreigners to encourage
the tourist trade. Germany and
France were next low, with Eng
land the most expensive.
Visit Paris Exposition.
The Scotta spent some time at
the Paris exposition and w'ere par
ticularly Impressed with the beauty
of the Seine, which at night is il
luminated by colored lights placed
on the river bottom. The Russian
building on the exposition grounds
was significant to Dr. Scott, who
found it "seemingly indicative of
a happy, Joyful outlook for the
new Russian era."
Relating some of his travel ex
periences, Dr. Scott recalled that
the nearest he ever came to the
war situation In Europe was in
Mainz, a city of 75,000, where he
and Mrs. Scott got off a Rhine
river steamer right in the middle
of the German war games.
In Air Raid.
"We had Just entered a taxi
when the sirens screeched out the
approach of an 'enemy' air raid.
Officers sprang up everywhere
clearing the streets of traffic and
shooing the people into the bomb
cellars. In about half an hour the
air squadron appeared and
'Domnccr uie city while the defend
ers manipulated anti-aircraft
equipment. It was great sport for
us, dodging and twisting thru
streets and alley-ways, but It was
even more fun for the taxi driver.
He had a fare!"

That freshman eleven that there
has been so much chatter about
has finally filed across the stadium
scales and their weights were a
Uttle disappointing to the gridiron
lobbyists. Instead of that 195
pound average in the backfield, the
yearlings weighed in at a slight
180 pound average with their line
trailblazers outweighing them only
5 pounds to the man.
Of course, such an average was
calculated from the short dozen
who have been hitting the turf
most regularly in practice. With
the array of players cheeked out,
Ed Wler could line up a hunch that,
could belittle Barniim and Bailey's
elephant department, but we're
afraid that their licking power
wouldn't exceed lolly pops. These
fellows whose weights we have are
fast and have the disposition of
runaway army tanks.
One coincident concerning the
scale readings of the yearlings is
that three of the four backfield
men weigh in at an identical 173
pounds. The trio are Newton,
Knight, and Hopp.
Minnesota Heavy.
While we are stealing the
thunder of the weights and meas
ures department, we may as well
go on and recite our faint knowl
edge of the bulks of those Min
nesota goblins. As this pillar in
tercepts the dope, the Nordics have
and end to end average of 199
pounds, a backfield average of
189, and Nebraska nein nein. The
Huskers are a bit on the fealhor
side In the backfield and the line
not so enormous, since only three
of the alleged "giants" weigh over
200 pounds.
Of course, as the Biff or re
marked, weight in statistics is
only "paper weight." It's the man
that can hit the hardest and the
longest, who is big.
How About Husker Defense.
With Oct. 2 and the Biermen
Gophers only two weeks away
there has been plenty of brain
racking, to figure out what cut
the leaks in the Scarlet defense.
Day before yesterday Harry Hopp
of Hastings tore thru a full team
of red shirts for a touchdown,
and several times since the rela
tively inexperienced frosh have
reeled off some good gains.
