For the next couple of weeks now, it's the gravy league
for the Nebraska Cornhuskers. Monday night, the University
Club threw a big dinner with Henry McLemorc of the United
Press as guest speaker.
Next Tuesday, a biff dinner will be thrown for the
Huskers at the Omaha Athletic Club. But can you
blame fans for treating them? They're the toast of the
most right now.
Gopher's most valuable
Most valuable player on the Minnesota squad this year is not
George Franck, Bruce Smith, nor any of the sterling linemen, but ho
is Senior Bob raffrath, quarterback. At least the Gopher grinders so
voted Paffrath as a candidate for the Chicago Tribune's most valuable
Big Ten player award.
All-Big Six team
If we had our way the Big Six conference football team
could be composed of all Nebraska players. But in a few days,
we'll orint our version of a flood representative conference
eleven. The remainder of this column is additional scribbling
by June Bierbower, boss gal in this corner last year
Add column: J. Bierbower
Henry McLemore's Monday night column told the world what
lota of people knew already that the Huskers are an all-Nebraska
team . . . forty players on the squad, and not an out-of-stater among
them ...
We think that's something of a record for a Rose Bowl
team, especially one of recent years . . . and wouldn't the
Huskcr band look swell out there ... the boys have been
working hard all season, and the show they put on Saturday
was something to behold.
And in conclusion . . .
Remembrances-our telling Vike Francis last spring half-jok-Ingly,
half-hopingly, we'd be seeing him in California along about
January 1, 1941 . . . his reply was something to the effect that the
Huskers had a lot of football to do before New Years, and that over
confidence could ruin lots of high hopes. . .
All of which shows that beneath what might look hke -big
talk" of the last few weeks, Vike and the other bowl-conscious
Huskers had their feet pretty well on the ground . . .
nd, In closing, arent things a lot cheerier now than they
were at half-time of the Iowa State garnet

Already the Indian coaches are
consulting charts of Nebraska
formations as Stanford took pre
cautions to get the "lowdown" on
the Huskers when they were being
first considered as a possible op

Bowl.
In another week, the Indians
will be in the midst of mid-term
