pip i!v fipli:
;! By Norris Anderson "-w ' '
(Sports Editor) " V ;
Before delving into any serious chatter, we must herewith
answer this question: 4 What is a shmeegie!" Some twenty
' odd saps wish to know what we meant by the term in yes
terday's eolumn.
A shmeegie is a synonym for cigar. Origination of the
terra can be attributed to a three-way source: namely, Fred
Metheny, Marv Thompson and Herb von Goetz. Herb staunchly
claims he created the term only to see Thompson and Metheny
steal it on the Pitt trip.
Thompson and Metheny claim that a shmeegie is a three-for-nickle
cigar and consequently Herb should be thoroly
familiar with the term.
Another query which should be answered here originated
on the dressing room bulletin board Monday. Upon the board
was the Eisenhart-Long-Hopp-Grubaugh backfield and the
question reigned: "Where did Grubaugh come from?"
Mr. Grubaugh arrived via an emergency condition from
a sub tackle berth. His presence in the No. 1 backfield can be
explained in two sentences. First his 200 pounds will boost
defensive mettle, a trifling item which requires plenty of boost
me prior to battle with the powerhouse Seahawks. Second
Presnell plans to rest injured Dale Bradley, Al Zikmund and
Marv Athey for the Kansas State fracas.
It will be the Yemnants of a stout Husker line against a
three-deep Seahawk eleven, possessing just the correct amount
of seasoning, weight and drive.
Literally book-worms who follow the exploits of Moby Dick
can virtually snap their fingers and find his modern equal
right here in Huskerland.
He's Jack "Rover Boy" Hazen, pass-snatching Scarlet
wingman. Injured against Mizzou, Jack was not slated to make
the big trip to Pitt. A bit of subterfuge by Hazen 's mates,
who figured a regular performer like Jack shouldn't be left
home from the best trip, accounted for Jack's seclusion until
the train arrived in Chicago.
One of the top mysteries to porters on the train was: "Who
slept in berth 8?" A restful Mr. Hazen had reclined there for
ti.e t,vtii'iug, then awoke early next morning to avoid "techni
calities." "Never took a more restful trip in my life," com
mented the stowaway on his return.
Elsewhere on this sheet is printed the all-intramural fra
ternity touch grid team. Behind that team lies a ponderous
amount of thought and concentration by Gene Sherman, our
intramural editor; Tom Brogan, UN intramural spons airecwr,
and Eddie Hall, intramural whistle-tooter.
HKcArvora nf the tnnoh er'u race this term pronounced it
as "best in history." A large measure of that success can be
attributed to the fine teams represented, plus Brogan and the
young men with the whistles.

All-Intramural
Teams Selected
By Officials
BY GENE SHERMAN.
Alpha Tau Omega, Beta Theat
Pi, and Phi Gamma Delta frater
nities each placed two men on the
all I-M team while the AGR's, Sig
ma Nu's, Delta Sigs, Farm House,
and DU'a had to be content with
only one member as the 1942 edi
tion of the Daily Nebraskan all
intramural touch football team
emerged from consensus selection.
Ends were Harold Hunt, ATO,
and Stan Maley, Sigma Nu, both
of whom were chosen because of
their pass catching and blocking
abilities. Hunt's performance in
the title game with the Beta's was
one of the main reasons for the
ATO's winning the championship.
Murray On.
Brick Murray, carrot-thatched
Beta, and Bob Schmer of the Farm
House gained places on the first
team due to their ability to soft
thru the opponents line and stop
enemy backs.
Candidates for the pivot spot
were many. After much consid
eration Francis Hunt was given
the nod over 'Fiji Ed Copple due
to the former's ability-to kick field
goals.
Arnot and Nutzman Lead Back.
A we 1th of backfield material
made the choosing hard for the
first five backs. Bill Arnot, Beta,
and Ned Nutzman, Phi Gam, were
the only men to receive unanimous
choices for their positions. Frank
Wolff, Phi Gam, Bob Minthorne
Farm House, and Dick Luther,
DU, round out the first string
backfield. Below are thumbnail
sketches of members of the first
team:
Harold Hunt Heat's ability to be wMe
awake at all times practically brought the
IIIU title to the ATOs. Hunt tallied eight
of the nine points against the Beta's
the title contest by running back na) In
tercepted pass for a touchdowa and block'
Ing a Beta pant tor a safety.
Bob Schmer This 19 pounder was the
mainHtay of a line that consisted of In
experienced performers. Behmer's best
game was against the Betas la which the
Farm House was only edged oat by a o-u
score:
Francis Hunt Besides having the nail
ties of a good pivot man. Hunt possessed
aa educated right toe that brought the
1942 champs many points after touch
downs.
Brick Murray Aa an around maa on
defense. Hurray made It tough for oppos
Ing linemen. Brick's flghUng spirit was
one of the mala reasons for the Beta's
success.
Stan Maley Maley's piny was featured
by many circus catches of passes. On
defense, Btaa kept his end ef the use
safe from wide end runs.
BUI Arnot Probably the best trlpte-
threater in I-M ball this year. Amot bod
the knack of calling the right play at the
right time.

Injuries Still
Bother Huskers
Injuries continued to be the main
source of worry in the Husker
camp yesterday as Al Zikmund
Dale Bradley, Marv Athey, Ran
dall Salsbury especially nursed
hurts sustained in the last two
battles.
During the light contact drill
Presnell continued to use the
"beef" backfield foresome of
Eisenhart, Long, Grubaugh, and
Hopp. Averaging 193 pounds, the
quartette will run offensively
strictly off double and single wing
formations.
Use of any intricate T forma
tion plays would be nill in face
of the performers' inacquamtance
with their new spots.
