By Gene Sherman
Coach Glenn Presnell sent his Husker proteges through a hotly
contested scrimmage under an equally hot sun yesterday afternoon at
Memorial Stadium practice field in preparation for the September
26th invasion of Iowa! After the Husker mentor's final whistle had
blown, the Red clad eleven was holding on to a scant lead of 27-21.
The winners struck early when they tallied a touchdown on a
60-yard sustained drive. Dale Bradley and Marv Athey took turns in
carrying the pigskin to the six-yard stripe where Bradley then took
the ball over for a score. Vic Schleich then place-kicked the extra
point.
A few minutes later the "A" team was again on the march, but
their threat was stopped when Howard Debus fumbled on the five
yard line. Harold Hungerford then punted out of danger to his
38 yard marker. On the first play Fred Matheny passed to Ki Eisen
hart, who raced down the sidelines untouched for another marker.
Schleich again converted to make the score read 14-0.
Buckley Scores.
The green shuts then found pay dirt for the first time when
Newman Buckley intercepted one of Roy Long's parses and returned
it 40 yards for a touchdown. The
score was then boosted to 14-7 on
Ed Murphy's conversion.
A rejuvenated Red shirted team
then took over the ball on the
irtidfield stripe and immediately
went over for their third score
of the afternoon. "Tut" McKee
carried the ball from the 45 yard
line to the 22 yard marker to
put the ball in scoring position.
Hopp and Long took turns in
carrying the ball to the three-yard
line. Wally Hopp then scored on
a line buck. Roy Long's place
kick made the score 21-7.
Dale Bradley then became the
high scorer of the afternoon when
he scored his second touchdown
of the scrimmage. He scored

from the one-yard line to climax
a sustained drive of 50 yards.
Thompson Passfes.
Dick Thompson, "the smallest
man on the squad, was then 'in
serted as the tail-back for the
green shirts. Thompson then
filled the air with passes to bring
the seconds into "A" team terri
tory. Thompson then completed
a heave to Henry Reichel, who
took the ball on the "A" 35 yard
line and evaded many red shirts
for a touchdown. Bob McNutt,
who had previously seen action
with the Red shirts, place kicked
the 14th point.
With playing time running out,
the losers were successful in
scoring again when Randall Salis
bury plunged over from the one.
Bob McNutt again gave the in
dication that he can be counted
on for points after touchdown
when he made good his second
conversion in a row.
Allen Zikmund did not see ac
tion due to an injured rib, but
the showing of Marv Athey, who
started in Zikmund's position, was
very encouraging. The work of
Ki Eisenhart and Wally Hopp also
brought smiles of satisfaction to
the few spectators who witnessed
the scrimmage.

for the Las Vegas gunnery school

"Machine Gun Pete" to "Petricia."

Fashion Decrees
Every Well-dressed Frosh
Must Wear Cap or Beanie
Fashion decrees that every
well-dressed freshman man and
coed on the campus wear the scar
let and cream cap with the num
erals '46. Of long standing tradi
tion is the custom that every
frosh lad be adorned with this
first-year insignia, but coeds of
the class of '46 will be the first
group to be generally outfitted
with the "beanie" bonnet.
Official freshmen caps will be
sold at the coliseum during regis
tration Monday, Tuesday and
Wednesday by Mortar Board at
tired in their' black caps and
gowns and by Innocents in their
scarlet capes.
Await First Snow.
Bob Schlater, Innocent in
charge of the cap s-ale, reports
that as usual freshmen will wear
the caps every day until the an
nual freshman-sophomore tug-of-war
held at one of the home foot
ball games or until the first snow
fall if the frosh do not win their
contest with the yearlings.
Mortar Board Marge Bruning,
head of the distribution of the
"beanies" for freshmen girls says
that the caps will look fine with
any coiffure and are just the thing
It's Tradition!
for the new defense hair-does now
in vogue.
Caps sell for fifty cents and
upon payment to either a Mortar
Board or an Innocent freshmen
will be given cards which are to
be taken to Ben Simon & Sons
store where they will be ex
changed for the insignias.
Mortar Boards Meet.
Freshmen girls were to wear
their class caps last year but these
arrived so late that only a few
were sold. Mortar Boards will
meet soon to determine some date
or event to terminate the wearing
of the "beanies".
So freshmen girls, you may have
the typical sweater and skirt with
saddle shoes and fellows you may
have a new jute, pardon, zoot suit
but you can't look like a typical
collegiate unless your costume is
completed with the scarlet and
cream.
During the first four months
of 1940, the province of Quebec,
Canada, produced 387,542 fine
ounces of silver.
Fitzroy Davis has written what
critics call a "quasi-noval," Quicksilver.
