On Saturday, Kenny participat

Freshman

Hoping to parallel the all-time
high turnout of 148 set a few
years ago, freshman football
coach A. J. Lewandowski re
leased the following information
today concerning freshman

ters are located in the south
end of the east stadium. The

hours at the time of completing
the requirement for the numer
al. have missed a great deal of
practice sessions and on top of
that he will have to play with
a special helmet to protect his
jaw. . . .
In respect to the impression
that Kenny Simmons has made
upon us, it is our hope that this
injury will not keep him from
joining the exclusive group that
wears the block "N."
Love Hall-
( Continued from Page 1.)
on the basis of the pleasure, the
convenience, and the saving of ex
penses that the student receives by
staying here.
The women who live in this hall
are selected on the basis of their
need to economize, their scholar
ship, health, and citizenship. The
sophomores and juniors must have
an average of eighty, while the
freshman women are selected on
their high school record.
Two live in each room on the
second and third floors. On the
ground floor there are seven
kitchens and seven dining rooms.
The women are divided into groups
of six or eight and these groups
cook separately in their own
kitchens.
Room rent is seven dollars a
month per girL Board bill will be
what the students make it since
they will bring food from home
and will do their own cooking.
Each item that a woman contrib
utes must be accredited to her and
the cost of the item established.
This picture alone represents one
of the important problems with
which Mrs. Blievernicht is con
fronted. The board bill is csti mated
at about eight dollars per month
or a total mr-nthly board and
room bill of fifteen dollars.
However, besides paying in
money and in food brought from
home each student must also work
about two hours daily because
they will do all of their own clean-
ine and cooking, mere wui do no
janitors or cooks hired and the
only outside neip win oe me noune
director and one graduate student.
The hall is equipped wltn a
lanre lounee attractively decorat
ed with a large nortn winaow ana
an open fireplace. On the ground
floor is a large recreation room in
which the student may spend a
laree cart of their leisure time.
ExceDt for the finishing wucnes,
Love Memorial Cooperative hall Is
completed. Some twenty freshman
women who will live in me new
structure have already moved In

Gridiron Candidates Engaged
In Varied Summer Activity
By George Abbott.
Getting into condition for the
1841 season, Nebraska's Corn
husker footballers did everything
from fighting grasshoppers, har
vesting and cement shoveling, to
plowing, working on road gangs,
and digging post-holes.
One of the outstanding sopho
more backs, Marvin Athey, spent
his summer building roads for
Chase county while letterman cen
ter Fred Meier worked with a
surveying party way down in
Oklahoma.
Wet Cement Provides Conditioner.
Shoveling wet cement on the
highway between Lincoln and
Seward proved to be a good con
ditioner for two ends, Ed Nyden
and Jerry Kathol, and guard Don
Bottorff. While back Al Zikmund
spent his summer fighting grass
hoppers and riding a plow at Ord,
tiny 6 foot 7 inch end Bert
Gissler chased a plow around up
Scottsbluff way.
Tackle Phil Yakal, in addition
to working in an ice storage plant
also found time to act as a fill
ing station attendant, while his
fellow lineman, Alma's tackle can
didate Joe Byler, did the farm
chores during the week and spent
"most of the Sunday mornings
building up the old forearm on the
ice cream freezer."
Kelly takes to pipes.
Working for his father in the
plumbing business, center Howard
Kelly found time to work out with
another Grand Islander, tackle
Clarence Herndon, who worked at
the Third City's Rest Haven camp.
Two boys working for Uncle
Sam during the summer were
back candidate Ed Hanisch and
back Tubby Hansen. Hanisch
spent the summer in the bomber
plant at Omaha while Hansen
worked with the Federal Bureau
of Reclamation on the Republican
river.
Roy Long mixed with sugar.
Blair's promising candidate for
a backf ield . position, Roy Long,
unloaded sugar at an Omaha
warehouse while Omaha's Gene
Wilkins worked on a farm at At
lantic, Iowa. Another Scottsbluff
lineman, Jerry Hooper, worked for
a hometown wool buyer.
Three more Cornhuskers who
farmed during the summer are
tackle Glen Hennings, back Ken
Simmons and end Jerry Pro-

chaeka. Prochaska, along with
two year lettermen Clarence Hern
don and guard George Abel spent
the first half of the summer in
officers training camp. Another
two year letter man, end Bob Lud
wick also endured the "taps till
revielle" schedule in camp.
Schleich and Blue go literary.
Working on the new library
building, tackle Vic Schleich, and
back Wayne Blue found time to
lean on their shovels now and then
to watch their teammates attend
ing summer school.
In this latter group were tackles
Howard Martig, Phil Bordy, Phil
Yakal, Francis Leik, backs Roy
Long and John Mackey, guards
Les Buckley and Don Bottorf, and
end Ed Nyden.
Looking after the interests of
the Lincoln Star, sophomore guard
Herb von Goetz, back Howard
Debus and Schleich also found
time to work on the stadium field,
while Bob Deviney, guard, spent
some time life guarding in Sioux
City. Working with the U. P., end
Jack Hazen saw his share of
greasewood and buckbrush out in
the wilds of Wyoming.
Two Deliver Power.
Two Cornhuskers in the power
business were, indirectly, back.
Bob Cooper, who put in his time
digging post holes for a telephone
company, and directly, Art Lin
coln, who worked for the North
Platte muny power company.
Back Dale Bradley turned boys'
camp counselor during vacation,
with another back, Wally McDow
ell, also working for the railroads.
All in all, the 1941 edition of
the Jones boys looks like they're
in condition to fill the shoes of
last year's squad which were,
after all, a pretty big, pretty
tough, pair.
University of Minnesota stu
dents are heavier, healthier and
taller than they were a decade
ago, but they have 10 percent
more tooth decay.

Huskers Hold
Stiff Practice
Drill Monday
Period Yesterday Flints
of Coming Scrimmage;
Game Movies Shown
Continuance of drills intended
to perfect offensive power was the
order of the day for the Nebraska
gridders when they stepped out
on the practice field Monday.
Although there was rain yester
day, the powers-that-be of the
Husker football coaching staff did
not let it interfere in any way
with the schedule of practices and
the team had a warm workout
During the morning drill, pie
tures of last ye&r's Iowa State
game were shown, proving to the
skeptics that the season's opener
with the Cyclones has not been
forgotten with all the talk that is
going the rounds about Indiana,
Minnesota and Oklahoma.
Afternoon drill plenty stiff.
A ten minute workout, under
the east stadium concluded the
morning activity. It was in the
afternoon trial that the work was
put on with everything that has
been stressed for the last week
being reviewed with an eye to the
first test that will come any day
now in the form of a scrimmage.
Kick-offs and kick-off returns
started out the stiff afternoon
with a lot of attention being paid
to the variations of plays on the
returns. Passing and pass defense
took most of the second period
with accurate passing being fea
tured. Plays were reviewed and sev
eral new ones added to set side
line quarterbacks to wondering
Just how great an offensive team
Nebraska would put on the field
this year. In the last stanza a
partial scrimmage was held in
which the number one outfit would
take the ball and get blocks on
six defensive players.
What comes today?
This is to practice getting the
primary and fundamental blocks
in order which must be gotten on
nearly every play. AH in all, it
was a practice period that had all
the earmarks of one designed to
ready the 61 pigskin devotees for
a good scrimmage.
