nothing better than to sweep the
fall sports titles, but will have a
tough battle against Farm House,

thought to be the Btiffest league,
though Norm Davis, a fine back

sweat clothes but worked out.
Francis was running with the
first string backfield last night,
indicating that he will likely start
against the Tigers.
Drill pleases.
The line and backfield drilled
apart last night, with the backs
running through an extensive pass
drill. Later the backs were going
through their assignments in
dummy formation in running
plays. Their pass drill was click
ing, and the Huskers may fill the
air with footballs this week, giv
ing Paul Christman plenty of com
petition. The Huskers were also
working on defensive passing and
hope to spoil Christman's high
percentage of completed passes,
Line Coach Lyman gave his for
ward wall candidates a stiff going

ber 10.

Bob Therien, center, all of Lin
coln; Irv Yaffe, forward, and Al
Randall, center, both from Omaha,
and f forward Frank Tallman, Cres-
ton, la., are the returning veter
ans. Grant Thomas, a regular last
year, and a two year letterman
may be out because of a weak
heart.
Frosh good.
One of the best freshii. n crews
in quite a while is coming up to
the varsity ranks. There are
Hartmann Goetze, St. Joseph, Mo.;
Bob Carey, Sid Held, John Hay,
Lyle King, Ray Rhoades, all of
Lincoln; Don Pollock, Fremont;
Les Livingston. Hastings, and
Charley Vananti, Omaha.
Bruce Duncan, Broken Bow, and

Duncan, who are starting their
final year, may crash into the

Baseball team lacks pitchers;
eight lettermen bolster squad
By Don Pollock.
"Baseball prospects for 1940 are
much improved and with eight let
termen returning we should have
a better season this spring than
last," says head baseball coach
Wilbur Kniftht.
Fall practice closed last Friday
after a month of workouts, and
was disappointing because of ad
verse weather conditions and gen
erally poor attendance at the
workouts. Coach Knight's diamond
hopes did not accomplish as much
as he had anticipated for those
reasons.
Of the 28 varsity men and 9
freshmen checking out equipment
the average attendance was gen
erally 10 to 15 men. Workouts
consisted mainly of hitting and
fielding drills and occasional prac
tice games were played when the
weather and attendance made
playing possible.
Lack pitchers.
Pitching is the weak spot on the
squad as none of the returning let
termen are chuckers. Oscar Tegt-
Boand's estimation. Michigan is
in the AP's runnerup spot, and
in seventh place in Azzi Ratem.
Notre Dame high.
Notre Dame, which Azzi Ratem
puts second, Is in fourth place
in the AP rankings, while Boand
rates Tulane fourth.
Next in line in the Azzi Ratem
standings come North Carolina,
Texas A. & M., Michigan, South'
ern Cal, Nebraska, Tennessee, Du
quesnc, Ohio State, UCLA, Ken
tucky and Duke,
mcier, letterman in the outfield,
and Harry Truscott, who are both
right handers and Bob Garey, a
southpaw, did the pitching this
fall. Sid Held, Lincoln, outstand
ing sophomore prospect did not re
port but is expected to be in suit
in the spiing.
The experienced varsity men are
Dow Wilson, Dow City, Iowa, sec
ond baseman; Bernie LaMaster,
Elm Creek, shoilstop; Oscar Tegt
meler, Burchard, third baseman
and outfielder; Frank Rubino. Lin

By June Blerbower
Jim Starmer along with the
twins Orf and Orf have been
catching most of Paul Christman's
passes this year, but there's an
other Mlssouran, Stillman Rouse
by name who Is no slouch at that
work. Last year Rouse a 195
pounder came in as a sub, and
turned in a fine pass catching
performance as Mlzzou drove to
their winning touchdown. An un
fortunate accident came Rouse's
way early this season when he
bought a detective thriller to fur
nish his literature on the trip to
Ohio State. The stories seemed to
affect him, because that night be
had a rip-roarin' nightmare, and
when he woke up he found he
had cut his hand badly in the
train window which he broke as
he struck at some of the dream
criminals.
Injury department: Harold La
har of Oklahoma will be out for
two weeks because of a leg injury
he picked up in the annual Sooner
Oklahoma A. & M. melee... Orv
Matthews' condition is the source
of conflicting reports. . .some say
he's okeh now... others that he'll
be out two weeks... Dick Fuller
ton, Pitt's center, is out for the
season with a brain concussion he
suffered in the Fordham game.
Two nifty pass-catching ends go
against each other today in the
Farm House-Eeta battle... Don
Fitz, Husker basketball star has
scored most of the farmers' touch
downs this year on passes from
John Fitzgibbon, while Sid Held
will be in there for the Beta s . . .
catching them from Bud Tallman,
Husker eager. . .Held, a sopho
more, is slated for a starter's posi
tion on the basketball team at
guard alongside Fitz this year...
he was an allstate end at Lincoln
high... Fitz was an outstanding
end for Jackson.
Virginia U. has a first string
back, Bill Dudley, who is 17 years
old... Nile Kmnick has completed
just 17 of 50 passes, but nine of
them have gone for Iowa Hawk
eye touchdowns this year... four
have been intercepted. . .probably
the fastest man in college football
is Mozelle Ellerbe, Tuskegee In
stitute's great sprinter. . .the col
ored boy gave up football last
year, but since the Olympics look
pretty far away, he decided to play
again. .. Ralph Huffman and Mel
vin Seelye, K-State tackle and
back respectively played at Fort
Scott Junior college. . .this is their
last year at Manhattan. .. Byron
Potter, Sooner backfield star, had
three years at Kemper, so this is
his first, last and only year with
the Oklahoma football team
Don Pollom, KU's star frosh back,
holds the national high school rec
ord in the 220 low hurdle event
. . . he's from Topeka . . . D. X. Bible
must be building circulation down
at Texas. . .27,000 saw his Long
horns beat Rice Saturday and that
big a crowd Is unusual to say the
least in the southwest.
