Horace brought me Jn an ex
amination paper a little while ego,
beaming from ear to ear, with his
big 85 that he got in a Psych 181
exam. Well, Horace Is pretty well
satisfied with himself, now that
he's stayed eligible for any extra-curricular
activities.
He wants to know now Just how
it Is football players can (ipend
so much time playing football and
still get good grades. Well, Hor
ace, the football players can't play
football unless they do stay eligi
ble, which mean that they must
be UP in 12 hours of work in
school.
"Gee Whiz," said Horace. "What
, if a guy only takes 12 hours, and
if he goes down in one, then he
can't play." Horace received an
affirmative nod and looked wor
ried. "Well," he said, "I sure hope
all o fthose 120 some freshman
of Lew's stay eligible. It'd be a
shame to have to have them
drop out of football now just
when Lew's been getting them
primed to shove Pittsburgh and
Oklahoma plays down the var
sity's neck."
Yes, little Horace is sure wor
ried about that football team's
staying eligible. Eligibility trou
bles forever haunt the coaches of
the nation's best teams.
Locker room notices keep
plugging away at the players,
telling them they must be eligi
ble to play football. And Ne
braska, like every other Impor
tant school, expects its athletes
to study.
After Horace's worries were
calmed by telling him that most
men on the varsity are smart
enough to know that they have to
stay eligible, he dozed off soundly
and started to dream of Saturday
afternoon, when he expects the
Huskers to flash their best while
taking Oklahoma.
Some day, just for the fun of it,
the Biffer's multifarious squad of
football managers, numbering
some humptillion, ought to get to
gether and tussle among them
selves In a good hot scrimmage.
They wouldn't mind it, for from
3 to 6 every evening of practice,
they get out on the field, run atfer
footballs that bound off the field
and over the fence, and do a darn
good job of keeping equipment
from getting lost.
They heed the call of ledahii ted
pliryers after scrimmages by lug
ging heavy baskets of wuter bot
tles halfway across the field, at
the same time making sure the
bottles are filled, seeing that no
stray bottles lounge around the
field ready to slice up the varsity,
and in general, taking care of the
boys when anything conies up.
The- most pleasure thev get is
throwing the football around
while. Thev sacrifice hours of
studv. and rn'obablv all wish thev i
were big enough to go out lor the
squad... and even it they arc not
. . . it's only fair to them to say
Ihey are a quite important pa i t" of
the football machinery.

Sophomore Plays 'Doc'
To Lewandowski Boys
Ankle-wrapper deluxe, muscle
massager supreme, and all-round
freshman squad "doc'' is Frank
"Bucky" Prime, red headed sopho
more, who handles the injuries,
bruises, sprains, and miscellaneous
malhappenings to freshman Coach
Adolph Lewandowski's big group
of Freshman footballers, who num
bered some 128 at the beginning
of Iho year.
"Bucky" estimates that he
winds some 600 to 700 yards of
two inch tape per week around the
ankles, wrists, and legs of his
'boys." Besides his duties as gen
eral manager and trainer, he seees
that the sore spots are fixed up
by operating the heat lamp in the
frosh locker room, he Is careful
to see that the steam baths arc
not run Incorrectly, and is the
"First Aid Kit" to the whole fresh
man squad when It comes to small
cuts and lacerations.
The red head also helps Lew in
checking role, which is a job in
Itself.
When asked what the best part
of his job was, he nochnlantly re
plied, "Collecting the pay check,
of course." The toughest part of
his job is of course, "The work
connected with it."
Mooching cigarettes is a favorite
habit of Mr. Prime's who never
has much trouble. However, Bucky
is always obliging upon requests
. . . if he has cigarettes ... to

Prime is 20, a second semester

Huskers Are
'In the Bag'
Says Sooner Campus,
Counting Unborn Chick
Reports from Norman, Okl
have it that Coach Tom Stidham
is having trouble with overconfi
dence on the Sooner campus.
Sooner students seem to have
the idea that Nebraska will be a
soft touch, having lost to Iowa
State ,and tied with Indiana. Play
ers on the high flying Oklahoma
squad are not of this same opin
ion however, realizing that the
Huskers Improvement has been re-
j markfihle ,and that the Nebras
i kans are pointing for the Sooners.
Estimations of the crowd ex-
pected in the Sooner stadium Sat
; urday have reached 20,000, which
i If fulfilled, will be a new record
! In Oklahoma history for home
games.
I Stidham has not yet picked his
i starting lineup for the Saturday

At P'esont,
the Bitter has the
same bunch that started the In-
diiunn game on his first string, and
they will probably remain there as
the starting lineup this week end.
Huskers have been working
hard, faced with the fact that if
they lose Saturday, their Big Six
record will be the worst of any
Nebraska team since 1930 in con
ference. Last week they faced the
chance of losing their third
straight for the first time in 39
years, and broke the jinx by tying
Indiana.

Waddy Young, Oklahoma's star
end, was the only senior in the
Sooners' starting line against Kan
sas Saturday. Jim Thomas, regu
lar guard, who was out of the
lineup with an
injury, is the
ot h e r third
year man in
what is consid
e r e d O. U.'s
strongest line.
Two sopho
mores, Justin
Bowers,
tackles, an, I
Cliff Speegle,
have made' the
HERM ROHFU& starting lineup,
Lincnln Journal, while end John
Shirk, tackle Gil Duggan, and
guards Harry Stevenson and Jerry
Bolton regulars in Thomas's ab
senceare juniors. So it looks as
though tough will be an anemic
adjective for the Sooners again
next year.
The Daily Kansan, wnicn, as u
admits, is not entirely unpreju
diced, picked Charley Warren, K.
U. center, as the outstanding line-,
man on the field Saturday, despite
the presence of some highly touted
Oklahomans on the other side of
the line.
The Jayhawks, according to
columnist Bill Fitzgerald, found
Young's end wasn't invincil:'
making several good gains around
him. That will be good news to
Husker followers, for Young has
been made out to be something of
a backfield eating ogre in reports
of his play against opposing backs,
especially passes.
Ends Shirk and Young will have
very large handfuls of business
Saturday afternoon if Hugh Mc
Cullough punts to the two Husker
safety men, Hermie Rohrig and
Marv Plock, who are just about
as good as they come at that re
turning business.
Marv has been out most ot the
year, and might surprise someone
Saturday. His absence from the
Husker lineup hasn't been pub
licized much because of the grand
way in which Hermie has taken
over, but when he gets in there, he
may run a few boys ragged. From
the looks of the weather now, he
and Jack Dodd won't be handi
capped by a slippery footing as
they were lust year, and 'it will
take some hustling to stop the
dazzle boys.
Rohrig. by the wiy, isn't the
first German boy to wear that
number 25, as most of the not so
old timers will remomlK'r. Last
Dutch flyer to sprout it was one
George Henry Sailer, about whom
no more has to be said.
Saner was a great player from
the day he set foot on the Husker
gridiron, and Herm is stalling just
i like him
a full Hedged varsity
performer in his early sophomore
days. By 1940, when both he and
his sophomore line have two years
under their belts, more than a few
teams will be running to some
pretty rugged cover.
To get back to the present, tho,
which Is much more pressing, al
beit a little less rdsy:
The Huskers, if their defense
continues to improve, can hold
Oklahoma, whose forte this year
is more along defensive than of
fensive lines. That would leave it
up to the Husker attack, and if
it can get the downfield blocking
It lacked at times against In
diana and Iowa State the Sooners'
jig might be up.
Skeleton Comes
Out of Closet
At Tea Party
Adam, the art department's new
skeleton, will be guest of honor
this afternoon at 4 o'clock nt a
tea sponsored by Delta Phi Delta,
art fraternity. The affair hns been
called both to celebrate Adam's
coming-out and to bid farewell to
Charles, who h resigned tho nn-
Sltlon of chief skeleton in the de
partment after many years of
faithful service, in which time he
lms held a unique place in the
neart of every prospective artist.
It is believed that Charles is
leaving his post because of ill
neann ior ne nas suuereci me loss
of several ribs, vertebrae, toes,
fingers, et cetera, as the result of
much rough hnndling and vigorous
counting by students of anatomy
during the past decades.
All fine arts department mem
bers are invited to attend the cele
bration in room 309 of Morrill hull.

Huskers Strengthen Defense
Phi Delfs
Reach Finals
Championship Battle
With Sig Eps Today
Phi Delta Theta gained the in
tramural touchfootball finals yes
terday afternoon when they took a
nip and tuck tussle from the Betas
2 to 0, by virtue o f safety in the
third quarter. The Phi Delts will
meet the Sig Eps in the finals this
afternoon at 5 o'clock in what
promises to be a hard fought
game. Altho the game is regarded
as a tossup, any edge ljiust be
given to the Sig Eps, who have
consistently run up large scores
on their opponents. This may not
prove to be a decisive factor be
cause neither team has met the
same opponents and the Phi Delts 1
have shown strength both orf of- j
fense and the defense.
The Phi Delt. margin came in
the third period when the Betas
were thrown for a 14 yard loss to
their one yard line by virtue of a
fumble. An attempted punt was
blocked by Phi Delt Elani and was
recovered in the end zone by the
Betas for a safety. The game was
evenly contested thruout but the
Phi Delts made the most serious
bid In the third quarter when they
advanced to tne Beta 2 yard line :
where the Betas held. For the 1
winners, lineman Flam was a con-1
stant thorn in the Betas' side while '
King, end. nnd Ryan, back, also
came thru with some nifty work, i
For the Betas, Souders and Sid

Sooner Hopes Saturday
Nebraska hopes for a cross
country victory are much improved
by the development of Del Moore
and Al Kuper last Saturday. Moore
ran the race 32 seconds faster than
he ever ran before. Kuper was 12
seconds ahead of any time he had
made this year. John Brownlee,
second in the Big Six race tast
year, is working out and will make
the trip. Lee Butler and Jim
Knight, both of whom ran iast
Saturday, are out with bad feet.
Oklahoma will run Gahan, How
ell, C. Lochmer, McKinney and
McCarty against the Huskers. So
far the Sooner team has had a
fair season.
Track Coach Ed Weir is work
ing out with 75 men so far, and
wants as many out as possible to
take advantage of the good ,
weather. He predicts there should
be almost a month of running
weather left for the bnys to get
in shape for the coming indooi
