Husker hopes for a victory over
Indiana Saturday are probably
not as shallow as many persons
believe. True it Is that Indiana
has a heavy team, studded with
veterans ... a team that held
Ohio Stale to a one touchdown
victory, also, which has not tasted
the glory of victory this year.
The Hoostcrs want to win this
game for many obvious reasons
They haven't won from the Husk
ers in the past two games, losing
both by slim margins after cany
ins off statistical victories. They
haven t won this year and don't
entertain any notions of losing
Heir third straight.
but Nebraska also wants to win,
for obvious reasons. The Husk
ers haven't won this year, and
neither do they entertain any
notions of a third straight loss.
They want to wipe out the in
glorious defeat by Jim Ycagrr'a
upsetting Iowa State club. They
want to show that they can play
the brand of football which has
ranked them among the top half
dozen tfams in the nation during
the past few years ... so don't
sell them short.
Big Six laurels will be as big a
job this year for the Huskers to
take care of as will winning their
intersectional contests. Okln
h o m a, in dead earnest, has
perched itself at the top of the
valley teams by virtue of vic
tories over Rice and Texas, bowl
ing the latter over in methodical
fashion Saturday, 13 to 0. The
Huskers journey to Norman the
week after the Indiana game
where probably the Big Six title
question will bo practically set
tled. If the Sooners beat Ne
braska without much trouble, thty
should win the conference crown
easily.
If the Huskers trip the Okla
homa forces, then they, the Soon
ers, ana Iowa State's Cyclones are
very liable to end in h three way
tie, providing the Sooners trip the
Cyclones . . . however, no amount
of figuring will lead us to any
definite result. Nebraska is capa
ble of knocking off its four re
maining opponents ... so is Okla
homa, but the Cyclones are a
question, even though they
squeezed out a win over the
Huskers.
Conch Wilbur Knight, Husker
baseball tutor, reports that 31 men
have been reporting to his fall
practice sessions quite regularly.
A few fall games will be played
within squad numbers before the
practices end to determine just
what ratings new stock should be
given in preparation of Spring
games . . . theres' one thing that
seems sure. With a little student
support, and aided by fall prac
tice, Nebraska's baseballers will
turn in a better record next year
than this last season . . . and you
can bet on It.

Husker Squad Faces
Second Hurdle in Big

With only two more days of real
work left before the Indiana game
Saturday, Biff Jones' yesterday
pushed his Huskers thru their
hardest work so far thia week, lln-
" Ing up two full
s? v
P J aJt
elevens against
frosh teams;
teams, one on
offense and the
other working
defensive post
tions.
The first
string, lined up
against Adolpli

Indiana offen
sive aquad
stopped the
frosh cold on
most of their
wjmi.n m niNHUti.Mi plays, allowing
'Lincoln Journal, a couple to Flip
thru the line for gains of 4 and
yards. The yearlings completed
two passes Into the flat which
would have been good for at least
15 or 20 yards, but were unsuc
cessful on all the rest.
Later, this eleven switched and
took the offensive against the
frosh, with the Major giving them
the hall at various yard markers,
checking up on the quarterbacklng
used at different stages or a game
One drive, where the Major placed
the ball on the frosh ten, took
four nlavs before the redshirts
could push leh ball across.

Hub Monsky, frosh guard, piled

sition, working his 19(1 pounds
with the ficht and acillty of a
panther. Blocked out by two men
at times, ho would arch over back
wards and grab the ball carrier
cominjr thru his spot. The varsity's
touchdown was scored after he
was taken out of the lineup, with
Fob Luther twisting thru the line
for the score.
The eleven men composing this
varsitv team were:

Another aquad, working on of
fense against another frosh team
consisted of the following men:
Ends, Ashburn and Shindo:
tackles, Sehwarttkopf and Goetow-
skl; guards, Klunl and Dohson;
renter, Meier; backs, Knight,
Thompson, Andreson and Sim'
mons.
Aided by nice blocking, Knight
twisted thru the frosh secondary
several times for gains that would
have been touchdowns in a reg'

All in all, the aquad la In pretty
fair physical condition, has been
laboring hard to overcome mis
takes committed during the first
two games and It out for the

Tlght contests were the rule
yesterday afternoon as touch-football
teams In League IV and V
completed their schedules, leaving
only a few postponed games to be
played.
After the dust had cleared, Phi
Delta Theta had won the chain
plonship of League IV by defeating
the A T. O.'s 12-0 and. the Delts
had won the chance to meet the
Delts had won the chance to meet
the Sig Alphs in a playoff by de
feating the latter team 1-0 in an
extra period. The Phi Sig Z. B. T.
tilt was postponed but will have
no bearing on the standing of the
Phi Delta in League IV.
Owen, Ryan and Abel were the
leaders in the spirited attack of
the Phi Delts which netted touch
downs in the second and third
quarters. At the same time the
Phi Delt defense held up to hold
off A. T. O. scoring threats. For
the losers, the work of Davis was
outstanding.
The Sig Alphs, with a chance to
clinch the championship of League
V, went down to defeat in an ex
tra period to the Delts 1-0. This
win gave the Delts a tie with the
Sig Alphs, and will necessitate a
playoff. Both teams played evenly
thruout, the only serious scoring
threat coming in the second quar
ter when the Delts advanced to
the S. A. E. 15 yard line. Out
standing for the victors were Dow
Wilson and Bob Smith while the
work of Bruce Duncan and John
Keating was best for the Sig
Alphs.
In the other League V tilt, the
Phi Psis scored a touchdown in
the first quarter and a safety on
a blocked punt in the third period
to defeat the Kappa Sigs, 9-0.
Baker and Schwartz for the win
ners and Mack and Van Buskirk
for the Kappa Sigs shone in this
game. In a postponed game the
Sigma Nus' defeated Sigma Alpha
Mu, 16-0.
Jim Henderson, sage of Iowa
State, writing in the Ames student
newspaper, presumably in an ef
fort to stem over optimism on the
Cyclones' part, states that Ne
braska may be the weakest Big
Six team Iowa State will face.
If he's speaking of the team
the Cyclones met Saturday, he
may be right, for as some million
and one sports gabbers have writ
ten and said, the Huskers pimply
didn't have the old savvy that Roes
with experience and they didn't
look so hot.
It's a fair warning to the Staters,
for they probably will meet lengue
teams who will be better than the
Huskers were. However, we
wouldn't advise Nebraska's Big
Six opponents to be to base their
hopes on the Huskers' play Satur
day. We don't mean to toss sour
grapes at the fine play of the
Iowa State team Saturday, hut we
just have a hunch that some of the
boys who are soiling Nebraska
short now will be doing some rue
ful regretting before Thanksgiv
ing.
Altho most of the headlines
around other Big Six schools have
been extolling some hot shot soph
omore backs -all except Hermie
Rohrig, it seems, it looks as tho
most of the boys who are getting
national recognition are linemen
and veteran backs.
With the old all star bug be
ginning to buzz once more, we'll
fall in line for a day, too. There s
the Huskers' Charley Brock, who
Is playing All American ball at
center even tho Nebraska has lost
its first "two. Ed Bock of Iowa
State is the best guard in the con
ference and among the best in the
country, while Oklahoma's two
ends, VVaddv Young and John
Shirk; who happens to be Big Six
discus champ on the side, have '
been making life pretty unbear
able for passers in the southwest,
among them Ernie Lain, who is i
combatting some extra avoirdu
pois as well as opposing lines.
Four veteran backs in the con
ferenee, namely Jack Dodd. El
mer Hackney of Kansas State,
Max Replogle of Kansas, and
Everett Kischer of whom you may
have heard, are still pretty much
the class of the midlands. Dodd
has scored on long runs against
every big opponent of the Huskers
in the last two years, and his 90
yards against Minnesota didn't
hurt anything. Northwestern by
its own admission, didn't stop
Hackney, and thought he was All
American timber. Replogle. one of
the best backs appearing in Lin
coln last year, is again sparkling
the Kansas team, while Kischer's
play 'against the Huskers placed
him in the A.P.'s list of Saturday's
heroes.
Wilbur Moore, the Mlnnesotan
whom a number of Nebraskans re
member, has averaged 7.6 yards
every time he's carried the ball
this season... Ted Doyle suffered
a broken arm In Sunday's Pittsburgh-Brooklyn
tilt .
Do athletes burn out? '
Your neighbor probably will
confirm your personal opinion that
they do. Certainly, you reason,
after years of intensive training
and competition In high school and
college an athlete faces life after

spent, his est gone and his health
Impaired permanently.
Why, yon probably know of a
case back home where a basket
bnll player who was all-state in
1933 died a couple of years later.
And your friend remembers an
other story very much the same.
But actually the statement that
athletics burns one out or affects
his health, is false. So says Sid
Robinson, Indiana's cross-country
coach, who returned this summer
from Harvard's physiological 'at
oratories. Robinson was granted
a two-year leave of absence from
hi University teaching duties to
work for the Ph. D. degree at the
Cambridge, Mass., educational in

Brown. England's middle distance
champion.
It was found that these men,
when performing exhausting work
on a motordriven treadmill, had
super-normal capacities for oxvgen
consumption. Lash, for instance,
is capable of absorbing 81 ruble
centimeters of oxvgen per Kilo
gram of body weight, as rnrnpnrc-i
to the average non-athletic man'
47 cubic centimeters at Lash's ago
of 24. Thus Lash has an oxygen
consumption of almost twice hat
which you possess.
Heart Well Developed.
The great power of oxygen In
take which Lash and his spiked
shoe brothers possess comes prin
cipally from a superior develop
ment of the heart which is nblt
to supply the tissues with a larger
volume of blood each minute.
Training intensely strengthens the
heart so it can allow Increased
oxygen consumption. Thus an
athlete can enter life after college
with an advantage over his fellow
student as far as staying power
goes.
In performing exhausting work,
these athletes attain about the
saint.' maximal heart rates 1'M

Since the athlete's heart beats m
tho same rate as the nnn-alhletc s

more efficient in each beat.

sent in by the Biffer to help utern
