Preparations for the Mizzou
fame hit a snag Monday at the
husker football camp with the
gloomy tidings that Quarterback
Johnny Howell had been removed
to the Lincoln

of an aggra

signal caller is
expected to be ready for the Tiger
battle by Thursday.
The report mat union .vienravy,
Husker fullback injured Oct. 2 in
the hectic Minnesota battle, was
showing great improvement
brought cheer to his colleagues and
coaches. Removal of a blood clot
last week has aided greatly in
speeding his recovery.
Practice Indoors.
Rain drove the Cornhusker grid-
men under the east stadium yes
terday, and Coach Biff Jov.es sent
them thru a short workout on of
fense and defense plays. Follow
ing the rehearsal, the Huskers
were shown pictures of last year's
Nebraska-Missouri grid fight at
Columbia.
A change was noted In the first
strine lineup yesterday as Adna
Dobson was stationed at Loweii
English'3 guard berth. English
game captain for the Sooner con
test, turned up with an abdominal
injury and looked on as his team
mates went thru their paces.
The Biffer had Amen and Rich
ardson, ends; Doyle and Shirey,
tackles; Mehrlng and Dobson,
guards; Brock, center; Andreson,
quarterback; Doltd and Andrews,
halfbacks, and Callihan, fullback,
on the No. 1 varsity.
Orchids to Callihan.
Orchids are due Fullback Bill
Callihan for his consistent playing
in the Sooner game. Without i
doubt, he was the outstanding per
former on the. rectangle that day.
Undaunted bv the mire, Callihan
toted the ball 13 times and covered
77 yards for an average of almost
six yards per attempt. The Grand
Island husky accounted tor uie
five first downs earned by the
Jonesmen.
As far as the local sports
scriveners are concerned, Callihan
is no longer knokn as Wild Bill
but as Iron Bill. He played the
full 60 minutes in both the Iowa
State and Oklahoma games.
19,310 See Game.
An official checkup shows that
19,310 persons weathered the rain
Saturday to see the Sooners and
Huskers" battle to a scoreless dead
lock. Prior to the onset of incle
ment weather last Friday, a crowd
of more than 32,000 was expected
to witness the fracas.
Officials for the Nebraska-Missouri
game at Columbia this Sat
urday are Ira Carrithcrs, Illinois,
referee; F. E- Dennie, Brown, um
nire: John Wulf. Kansas, linesman,
and Parke Carroll, Rockhurst,

of the two best blocks made in
the Big Six games Saturday. Sure
and begorra, they were made by
John "Shanty Hogan" of Missouri
while protecting a Tiger passer,
and by Bill Callihan, who cut down
Doe of Iowa State on Paul Amcn's
touchdown sprint.
tallihan Doyle, Mcllravy. .
Callihan isn't the only Irish
name on the Nebraska roster.
There is Ted Doyle, big tackle,
and injured Eldon Mcllravy. (If
any other Husker feels he deserves
a niche among the thus honored,
notify the Nebraskan office, and
due ciedit will be given). Okla
homa, Nebraska's week end op
ponent, lists Hugh MoCullough, Gt!
Duggan and Hcd McCarty. The
original Fighting Irish, Notre
Dame, have a bumper crop of real
Irish this year in O Reilly, Mcuor
mick, Horan, Sweeney, two Mur-
nhvs. two CcCartys and several
others.
Dave O'Brien of Texas Christian
has stepped into Sammy Baugh's
shoes, and the Texans are saying
he's better than Sammy. Mike
Hearn is Fordham's backfield
flash, and John McLaughry, jr., Is
practically a one man team at
Brown, while westerner are boost
ing Phil Dougherty, Santa Clara
center for all-American honors,
Kavanaugh and O'Mara.
In the south, Kavanaugh, Lout
siana State atar, snared an enem
fumble and ran the entire length
of the gridiron to score. O'Mara is
Dunes star fullback.
Big Ten teams present their
share of Iruhers. Iowa has two
Gallaghers, Earle Luby is a tacki
at Michigan and Bob Fitzgeraln
captains Chicago. Jack Ryan is
sophomore star at Northwestern,
wht re "Machine Gun" Jack Mc-
Girn and an O'Leary hang out
Wisconsin lists O Bnen, Murray
Stiahan and Kinney.
Creighton has a pair in Joh.i
Leahy and Onier Kelly, while St
Louis U. boasts of Dennis and Bill
Cochrane, both halfbacks.
This is by no means a complete
list, but just a sample to indicate
that the Irish seem to be back in
their old glory once more.
Oklahoma threw a monkey
wrench into the Big Six football
machine bv holding the highly
aunted Coi nhuskcrs to a scoreless
tie last Saturday at Memorial
stadium." As things now stand,
the race for league honors is a
wide-open affair.
Last Saturday's joust with the
Jonesmen was the first conference
test for Coach Tom Stidham's
Sooners. The Oklahomans possess
wins over Rice and Texas and
have dropped a verdict to Tulsa.
Coach But Jones Huskers
scalped the Cyclones, 20-7, for
their initial conference triumph.
However, the deadlock with Okla
homa places the Cornhuskers' '30
diadem in jeopardy as Kansas
clowned Iowa State Saturday for
its first conference win by a 11-6
measure.
Race in Jumble.
Two weekends back, Mentor Don
Faurot's Mizzou lads punished
Kansas State, 14-7, for their first
conference victory. Statistics di
vulge that Nebraska, Kansas and
Missouri have each one Big Six
triumph under their belts, leaving
the race in a jumble.
Bad tidings for conference
brethren came from Manhattan,
Kas., last Saturday as Kansas
State pushed aside the potent Mar-
NEBRASKA

quette eleven, 13-0. However, the
K-Staters have a stain on their
conference record as they dropped
a 14-7 count to Missouri.
Huzzahs galonc ran rampant on
the Mount Oread campus last
weekend as Coach Adrian Lind
sey's Kansas team won its first
Bie Six test In two years. The
.lavhawkers defeated the Iowa
State men, 13-6.
Tigers Lose, 2-0.
At Columbia, Mo., Missouri al
lowed Its sophomore back, Porter
Robb, to become trapped behind
his own goal for a safety, which
gave Michigan State a 2-0 'win
over the Tigers.
Two league tests are on tap for
this Saturday as Nebraska faces
Missouri at Columbia and Kansas
confronts Oklahoma at Norman.
Last, season Nebraska turned back
Mizzou 20-0, while Oklahoma van
quished K. U., 14-0.
Kansas State and Iowa State
are booked to get a taste of non-
conference competition Saturday.
K-State takes a jaunt to Omaha
to tangle with Coach Marchmont
Schwartz's Creighton Bluejays in
the first meeting between the two
schools. Iowa State will scrap
with Drake at Des Moines. The
Cyclones reversed the Bulldogs
last year by a 21-7 score.

PTOf C SEATS
Gopher Underclassmen Kick
on Space Allotments
Behind 32-yd. Line.
(By Siterlai Oorrpepondfnt to Nebraiikanl
You have undoubtedly heard of
the war in China, but here's a new
one. Altho it's just a private battle
at the University of Minnesota, it
means plenty to the Minnesotans.
What is it all about? Just a little
matter concerning the student
seating arrangement at the foot
ball games.
It seems that the majority, and
a largo majority, of the students
were not considered when it came
to giving out reserved scats. The
faculty and the ' M men, the let
ter men, were undoubtedly favored.
Their seats are all very conven
iently located on or near the 50
yard line. The general public, too,
seemed to have fared very well by
getting seats anywhere form the
5 to the opposite 30 yard line.
Students Are1 Griped.
Where are the stuifents? Behind
the 32 yard line, and maybe you
think they aren't griped. They hav
a right to be. After all, the stu
dents are the ones who are the
most ardent supporters of the
team. '
This little battle started r'.it
with the students yelling, "We
want better seats!" at a recent
game, and rapid developments
have taken place since then. Dur
ing the last few days, a campus
ublicaiion lias carried several edi
torials which have rightly stirred
up the indignation of the students.
It is hoped that a committee will
be appointed to Investigate the sit
uation, and, with the assured sup
port of the president of the uni
versity, action will be taken to
right the despicable deed done the
students by a committee on tick
ets of the senate committee of
intercollegiate athletics.
University of Chicago May
Resign From Western
Loop Competition.
Murmers are growing in volume
daily as for the second time, the
University of Chicago appears to
be op. the verge of resigning from
the Big Ten Conference, of which
it 'is a charter member. Should
such action be taken, Nebraska
has been nominated as the logical
school to fill the loop vacancy.
No word has come from the
Windy City school substantiating
reports that they will drop from
the conference, but the gtudent
daily has recently sponsored an
editorial campaign in favor of the
measure.
Other schools In the circle
choose Nebraska because of its
strong teams now on the upgrade.
They recognize Biff Jones as a
powerful coach and also acknowl
edge the box office appeal of
Husker teams.
Increasing relations with schools
of the western conference, playing
three Big Ten teams this year,
have helped the Huskers get the
nomination. Loop officials point to
Nebraska as the school with
"ethics and sportsmanship."
Michigan State filed for admis
sion to the Big Ten club, but this
school has little chance of being
chosen since its sister institution,
the University of Michigan, is
already a member.
Nebraska's sensational win over nesola
Nebraska is naturally the first
team to be considered because of
their defeat of Minnesota. In
their three games played so far,
Nebraska has not shown cham
pionship caliber. Their line doc;i
not appear as strong as it is sup
posed to be. Minnesota and Okla
homa both made more total yard
age than did the Huskers. The
only play that could gain ground
against Oklahoma was a spinner,
with Callihan carrying the ball.
The Huskers have two good pass
ers, but two passers and onu
ground gaining man aren't enough.
The standouts in the line are
Brock and Shirey, who have bten
largely responsible for the team's
successes so far this year. It
sounds good to say that Nebraska,
br it. Minnesota, but they beat
them on fumbles, and don't appear
tn he the team to finish the year
umlrfeated.
Minnesota still has a very
good chance of retaining a part
of the title which they have held
for so many years. They were
off form in their first three
games, but finally returned to
shape against Michigan on Sat
urday, and seem ready to go
places at last. Northwestern
and Notre Dame will give Min
nesota their hardest games from
now on, with Northwestern be
ing the most likely to pull an
upset.
Northwestern is also very strong
this year, and may beat Min-
for the second straight
year. They are still undefeated
and untied.
Yale appears to have their best
team in recent years. Their 15 to
7 defeat of Army was very im-
Minnesota this year as well as
their fine showings in the two
past years also figure in their
selection as a memher-elect.
On the other hand, it is doubt
ful if Nebraska, even though : pressive. Clint Frank is as good
chosen, will enter, it was learned ; a leader as Kelley was, and may
yesterday. Only by resignation j lead Yale into the Hose Bowl,
from the Big Six could the Husk-1 Their hardest test is over, and

enssion arose, Coach D. X. Bible I Pittsburgh and Fordham must
nut a f.rni tiihiTn on the entire dis-! have a working agreement of
cussion. As yet, Jones has re
mained noncommittal.
Chicago has been athletically
dropping for years. Not only have
they lost prestige in football, hut
also all of their other sports. The
Illinois school usually has only
enough material for one team, and
no reserves. Thus they emerge
badly battle scarred from their
season. Playing only four confer
ence opponents this year, Chicago
is almost inactive in Big Ten af
fairs even at this point. For this
some sort. For the last tnree
years they have played to score
less ties. Fordham has probably -the
best line in the country and
Pitt has the best attack. There
really isn't much to choose be
tween the two teams, but if the
eastern selection for the Rose
Bowl must be made between
them, Pitt will probably get the
call, because they play a harder
schedule than does Fordham.
It's still a wide open race, tho.
Several of the nation's strongest
reason, their resignation is antici- j teams have lost or been tied, and
may come nacK strong, .oiib
