K M Huskers leave for Pitt tonight Sooners ploy Missouri in big game Saturday's game of games In the midwest finds Oklahoma go ing against Missouri as the Soon ers will try to stop Pitchin Paul Christman, who has been playing all-American ball this season. Christman completed 12 passes in 25 attempts against NYU Sat urday for 146 yards, while K State, whose passing is not excep tional, completed 5 of 12- aerials against the Sooners for 87 yards Saturday. K-State showed Oklahoma can be scored on as they got 10 points, and would have probably won the game with a last period touch down but for two unfortunate fumbles. Should Missouri win they will have only Kansas to beat for tne Bir Six title. If the Sooners win. the Huskers will have a chance to tie for the crown by beating Oklahoma.

The first two teams were In sweat clothes, and watched the third string line along with six backs go against a combination of fourth stringers and freshmen us ing Pitt plays in a scrimmage.

Dale Bradley, ex-Bethany High flash was impersonating Dick Cas siano for the opposition, while Don Rubottom who is being held out this year, was also doing a lot of offensive work. After the scrimmage ended, Jones called all his men together and ran three teams through a short dummy pass drill. Hermie Rohrig, who is still suffering from a charleyhorse, was in there chucking passes, though. The workout wss finished by 5:45, as the Huskers got off early after taking an unusually tough Monday drill. Meanwhile word from Pitt indi cates that the Panthers are look ing for a kicker, as quarterback Ben Kish and fullback Ernie Bon elli are out for the season. They're the two best punters on the squad, and third string fullback Frank Goodell and sub half Bob Thurbon, who caught the game winning pass against Carnegie Tech are the punters left. Mike Sekela will take Kish's place at quarterback, while Ted Konetsky, injured tackle, will be replaced bv Jack Benz. Bowser still has a good starting lineup but is worried about his reserve strength. Pitt's passing strength may give Nebraska trouble. They have scored 16 touchdowns, eight of them from passes. Narick, who heads the passers, has completed 21 of 39 tosses for 268 yards, while Dick Cassiano has a mark of 18 out of 40 for 243 yardage. Cas siano has accounted for 713 other yards on rushing, passes received kick returns and interceptions. THE MILITARY BALL New Arrivals!

Third Floor m if s by June Bierbower. "Pity Pitt," the Huskers' slogan the last time they went back to Pittsburgh seems to be the general tone of the news stories coming out of Panther Hollow concerning the Pitt team. Granted that a team can't lose five regulars and still be pretty powerful, some of the moaning might be a little exaggerated. Kish and Bonelli, who are both out of the Husker game, had been doing the punting, so now there seems to be no punter in sight un less Bob Thurbon replaces Emu Narick at halfback or unless Frank Gooddell comes in at full back to replace a superior player. The Panthers, tho, will probably find someonce who can kick them pretty capably this fellow Thur bon may be the one. He caught that game-winning pass against Carnegie Tech, and they can use him very well in the backfield as Narick's replacement even tho the latter is a fine passer. Dick Cas siano and Edgar Jones can toss them from the other halfback po' sition pretty capably, Cassiano's passing accomplishments bein nearly as great as Narick's this year. Seven men have been game cap tains for the Huskers this year George Seemann, Bob Ramey Sam Schwartzkopf, Ad Dobson, Jack Ashburn, Bill Herrmann George Porter. Last week if you read this col umn one day, you may have come to a part which concerned the Huskers seniors, but which didn'i make much sense because it was inaccurate, and also because couple of lines had been left out. Thing is that four of those seven started out as frosh four years ago, and that just two of them were freshmen three years ago. Seemann, Ramey, Schwartzkopf and Herrmann were the first four, while Ashburn and Porter started in together in 1936. Dobson, tho, didn't miss it by far, because he started the semester before Ash burn and Portei and got in two spring practices instead of one.
