of scores. His runs were of 27, 15,
and 18 yards in the first quarter
against the frosh eleven.
In the second quarter, Bob Kah
ler galloped 80 yards and Wayne
Blue plunged thru for 8 yards for
the second team in counting two
more tallies against the frosh.
Hopp ploughs over.
Harry Hopp provided the only
score in the third period when he
ploughed for 2 yards and a touch
down. Hopp scored against the
third team.
In the last quarter, the firsts
took the field again and this time
against the seconds. Allen Zik

half, raced 18 yards for the final
counter.

Luther and his sub, Zikmund,
came up with the majority of the
best running performances, while
Warren A If son was providing good
downfield blocking. Blue was
plunging again with the skill he
exhibited on Saturday.
Two sophomores, Jerry Kathol
and Burdette Wertman, were
holding down the end positions on
the second team, while Bob Lud

now the flankmen on the third
string.
Myers moves up.
Scrappy little Lynn Myers, of
Lincoln, has crowded into the sec

165 sophomore is making up for
his lack In weight by his speed
and fire. He's on the Bob Meh

In Monday's workouts, the
Huskers spent the day on the In
side by hearing chalk talks and
viewing motion pictures of last
year's games. Rain and a soggy
field under foot kept the Nebraska
eleven under the stadium.

Tom Stidham, Greek Indian

have two regulars and nine sub

with a strong list of sophomores.
Needless to say, the sophs will
