to Jack Hyland
for only touchdown
By Paul Dinnis.
Beta Theta Pi yesterday after
noon bagged the fraternity intra
mural football crown, downing a
classy Farm House team 6-0 in

land proved to
be the man-of-the
- moment,
taking a pass
from Bud Tall
man to score
the only marker
of the game.
The touch
down came
Bhortly after the
last half got
under way. The
Betas kicked
off over the
goal line. Farm
House tried a
pass on the
JACK HYLANO
first Play, but Journal and Star.
Sid Held intercepted it and got
back to the Farmer's 4 before
being chased out of bounds. Tall
man was trapped for a loss when
he couldn't spot a receiver, but
Bud made everything ok. on the
next play with the touchdown toss
to H viand. Hcld'a kick for extra
point was wide.
Betas dominate play
The Betas dominated the play
the rest of the way, although the
Farmers penetrated enemy tcrri
tory late in the game, getting a
first down on the Beta 10. iiyianu
intercepted a Don Fitz pass to halt
the rally. Held then got off a long
punt which put the Farmers on
their own 5 yard line as the game
ended.

D. X.Biblecalls
his team 'girls';
they win game
D. X. Bible, former Nebraska
coach, and now head man at Texas
U., was a fine psychologist, as
witness the following clipping
taken from the Reader s Digest,
telling of an incident which hap
pened when Bible coached at
Texas A. & M. before coming to
N. U.
"After being outplayed during
the first half of a football game
members of Texas A. & M. col
lege sat dejectedly around the
locker rooms waiting for a tongue
lashing from their coach, Dana X.
Bible. He entered on the signal
of the second half, looked around
r at each player, and turned to the
door. Then he paused, looked back
and said: "Well, girls, shall we
go? They won the game.

Biff Jones and Wes Fry were
Impressed by each othor's back-
kield men ... Biff said Kent Duwe
was the hardest hitting back the
Huskers have faced this year. . .
Fry says Herm Rohrig is one ol
the best he's ever seen . . . Dow
Wilson, Husker second baseman
was quite a track and field ath
lete in his high school days at
San Mateo, California. . .his 9.S
mark in the 75 yard highs stood
for four years until last spring in
the tough P. A. L. league. . .at the
same meet at which he set that
record Wilson high-jumped 5-8
to win that event, and tied for
second in the pole vault as he
did 11-6.
A member of the Kansas State
Collegian staff says that if they'd
only move the goal posts in to the
20 yard line, the K-State team
would go to the Rose Bowl . . . Kent
Duwe averaged slightly over five
yards a try ort-the 21 times he
earned the ball Saturday against
the Huskers but made both the
fumbles that gave Nebraska op
portunities for two touchdowns..
an exact count shows that Notre
Dame has won two 1 point vic
tories, two by field goals, and
one by one touchdown.
Clavelle Holden In the Univer
sity Daily Kansan:
"Time after time Nebraska
stole the ball from the Wildcats.
The Cornhuskers are past mas
ters of the ball tackling art.
And when the pigskin got away
from an Aggie ball carrier's
hands you could bet that a crimson-jerieyed
Nebraskan would
be in possession of it when they
unpiled"... Evidently then C. E.
McBride of the K-City Star, who
was wondering what Nebraska
would do for scores if Missouri
didn't fumble as much as It
State, needn't worry further...
the Huskers can just yank a ball
out of the Tigers' arms when
they feel like scoring a touch
down Saturday.
Note to football fans: There's
going to be a double feature at
traction at the Union ballroom
tonight as the rally for the Miz
zou game will be held after the
showing of the K-State game pic
tures, which themselves should be
interesting. There was much com
mcnt about the Baylor game being
boresome, but the Kansas State
game, altho not close, didn t get
uninteresting, because the Wild
cats kept giving the impression
that they were capable of doing
something even tho they didn t,
while the Bears couldn't even give
an impression.
Among the names put on the
Beta Gamma Sigma plague for
outstanding scholarship in bizad
college were Forrest Behm and
George Abel... Behm won a Wil
liam Gold key as a freshman and
has been on the university honor
lists during his two years in
school. . .Abel was in the upper
10 percent of his freshman class
last year.
Mizzou football roster lists
twenty lettermen this year
Twenty lettermen are listed on
the Missouri roster which will
face Nebraska this weekend at
Columbia,' among them being
Capt. Ken Haas and junior Paul
Chri3tman, both of whom were
put on several all Big Six teams
last year.
Christman, star passer, who
beat the Huskers last year, heads
a fleet of veteran backs, others
of whwri are Clay Cooper, Bob
Faurot, Jim Starmer, Jerry Noto
witr, Clarence Hydron and Myron
Counsil.
Cunningham stars
Bill Cunningham, who was out
last year with a broken bone in
his leg, is playing his first year
with the Tigers, and is one of

advantage of the brisk weather
and held a long workout on Me
morial Stadium field yesterday
afternoon. The Huskers took their
first hard workout of the ween
in prepplng for the Missouri clash
this week-end.
The first eleven was the same
one that ran last night. However,
Burruss and Francis were work
ing out in sweat clothes. The first
eleven was on the defensive in a
light drill -against the second out
fit and the frosh who were run
ning Missouri plays and were
stressing passes and laterals that
the Tigers have used to good ad
vantage so far this season. Sam
Schwartzkopf was taking it easy
tonight, too.
The first team switched to the
offensive later on and were
throwing passes, working fakes,
spinners and reverses. Practice
wound up as Ad Lewandowski's
frosh ran Tiger plays against thi
Husker varsity defense in a
heavy session.
First string.
The first eleven running last
night listed, Scemann and Ash
burn, ends: S. Schwartzkopf and
R, Kahler, tackles; E. Schwartz
kopf and Alfson, guards; Burruss,
center; backs, Luther Petsch,
Rohrig, and Francis. The second
eleven had Preston and Prochaska
at ends, Hcrndon and Behm,
tackles; Abel and M o n s k y,
guards; Ramey, center; DeFruiter,
Dobson, Knight and Hopp in the
backfield.
The squad went through a
heavy scrimmage to wind up the
workout for the evening.
Tuesday evening in the Tiger
lair the scjuad was working mainly
on defense. The Missourians fear
the deep sweeping reverses of the
Nebraska backs, and are attempt
ing to work up a defense that will
stop the Huskers. The Tiger men
tors believe that the Huskers will
not revert to their aerial attack,
but will try to bruise their way
goalward. On the offensive side
Coach Faurot had his two ace
passers, Christman and Gale,
throwing long passes, indicating
that once again the Tigers hope
to outmaneuver the Scarlet.
Line inexperienced.
The Tiger scouts claim that Ne
braska has a line that is still suf
fering from lack of experience, but
that the Scarlet does have eight
backs that are on an equal basis.
The main job will be up to the
Mizzou forward line, which is
supposedly stronger than the
Huskers, but the Missouri for
wards will be in for a long after
noon against Nebraska's "less su
perior" forward line.
The Nebraska squad will leave
Lincoln shortly before midnight
tonight for Booneville, Mo., from
where they will take busses for
the 25-mile trip to the Missouri
field for a Friday workout. After
the drill they will come back to
Booneville to spend Friday night.
After the game, the players will
go by bus to Jefferson City, then
take a train to Lincoln.

As I See It
BY JUNE BIERBOWER
That touchdown Jack Dodd
scored for the St. Louis Gunners
Sunday was the first the Missour
ians had tallied in three games...
and suppose everyone noticed
Charley Brock set up another
Green Bay touchdown by inter
cepting a Sammy Baugh pass and
running 58 yards with it... that
makes about three games in a row
it's happened.
C. E. McBride, writing In the
K-C Star says "The Schwartzkopf
twins, Ed and Sam of Lincoln, are
splendid linemen." The win part is
new to us, but he's right about
their playing ability.
Trustees of Portia college have
changed the name to Coolidge col
lege. There is something to be
said for a Coolidge education.
