Overheard Monday afternoon
about 3 o'clock outside the north
door of Social Sciences, waa this
short conversation.
Feminine football fans: .."we
need a victory more than Tubbs
does, Charlie."
Charley Brock: .."Yeah."
Whether Tubbs' Iowa Hawkeyes
beat Nebraska Saturday or not
will not Influence the angry ath
letic controlling faction on the
Hawkeye campus. The Hawkeye
mentor's fate has probably been
decided for weeks.
We're not saying that the
board's decision is to fire Tubbs
outright, but if they don't do that,
it will be a surprise.
Tubbs, as many coaches in the
nation, has had just a little too
much tough luck in not having
real material with which to work.
Nebraska put a losing team on
the field this year, too; the howl
ing pack that haunts Tubbs aren't
haunting Biff Jones, only because
most of the wolves In that pack
are waiting for next year. I dare
say that if the Huskers don't have
a lolopalooza season next year,
ihere'll be plenty of howling.
Nebraska speed should tell the
tale at Iowa City Saturday. Iowa,
tremendously heavy but unbelleve-
ably slow has a few good men,
but as a team, hasn't really much
to speak about. The fault doesn't
lie in Mr. Tubbs, but In Iowa's
athletic "environmental influence"
department. Iowa high school kids,
especially those from Siox City,
don't migrate in flocks to the
State University. Drake, Iowa
State, and other state schools get
more than their share.
Young Don Fleming, Creighton
university's sophomore star who
has run opposing defenders dizzy
this season, Is a Sioux City prod
uct. Creighton, in the past, has
always had athletes from Sioux
City. . .Creighton, however, is
probably as good a school as Iowa,
and not all athletes go to the col
lege where athletics are stressed.
Oeighton'a athletic policies arc
rumored to have been altered since
Marchie Schwartz took over on
the Hilltop, but no flagrant in
dictments have been brought
against the Bluejay athletic re
gime as yet, and the future doesn't
prophesy any.

Business Head Refuses
'Scholarship' Claims
Thirty-three Pittsburgh univer
sity freshmen football players re
ceived a shock, and football de
emphasis on Squirrel Hill became
more of a reality Tuesday as John
Weber, business manager at Pitts
burgh, refused "scholarship claims
of the grid stars.
The football yearlings said they
had understood the $300 promisory
notes they had signed would be
"taken care of" by the athletic de
partment, and that the signing of
them was just a formality.
Weber, however, insisted that
scholarships at Pittsburgh for
football men have been abandoned,
and asked for payment of $150,
fees for the first semester.
His promise of extra jobs to
help pay off the notes was not
welcomed by the freshmen, who
said their school work, football
and present jobs left them no time
for anything else.
Money Troubles.
One of the strongest freshmen
tice for their Kiski game Satur
day, but reports from Pittsburgh
say that unless some satisfactory
solution Is found,. Pitt will lose
valuable football material. Players
are embittered at the present
situation, and, altho some have
stated they will remain in school,
several are on the verge of leav
ing. trouble had been hinted earlier
in the season when 18 sophomore
players refused to report because
of "differences" with the Pitt ath
letic department, but relented

Gridiron History

Evolution of Football
The gridiron giants who com
pose today's roster of potential All
Americans would look like pigmies
if they were to be compared to the
players of a half century ago, ac
cording to a book on early foot
ball practices put out recently by
the alumni association of Wesleyan
university entitled "Athletics at
Wesleyan."
In 1881, for example, there were
two halves instead of four quar
ters. If the team winning the toss
chose to take the ball, they could
keep it the full half regardless of
the scores.
To the picture of one team tak
ing the offensive for a full half of
the game add the fact that plays
were given names instead of num
bers. For a center rush the quar
terback might yell "step on foot"
or for a second rush in succession,
he'd tell the center to "rub Block
ings."
With the quarterback calling
the names of the men who were
to be in the play, the signal might
sound like: "Hawkey, Mind, Rub
Stockings. Lively," which is quite
a bit different from the 1938 game
in which the spectators never hear
a play called.
