With
Well, now that the Minnesota fracas is over, and forgotten (we
hope), Coach Ad Lewandowski has the Indiana game to look forward
to. Indiana, like Minnesota, is another tough outfit. The Hoosiers
are packed full of scoring power and have a line that is almost
impossible to penetrate, as the Wildcats of Northwestern found out.
The Northwestern boys found it tough going against Indiana, and as
the Wildcats will be one of the top ten teams of the nation this year,
the Huskers will have it pretty rough next Saturday.
Last Friday, we, meaning me, had one of the finest columns we
had ever, or probably ever will write, written. Boy, did I lay it on
thick. I mentioned what a dandy football player Joe Kessler was,
and how he reminded me so much of Bullet Brown, the old Nebraska
great. I ought to know, because Bullet was my coach through three
tempestuous years of high school football. Well, all of that was
knocked in the head. Junked, or garbaged as it were, they had a
lot of advertising, and that has a better priority than this column
any day. But, to get back to the subject. I still think that Joe Kessler
is a fine football player, but that makes no difference, as Mr. Kessler
has been declared ineligible because he didn't have the required
hours last term.
Wealso had a lot of football predictions doped out last week,
but I suppose that it is just as well that we didn't run those, although
our average is not as bad as a lot of the dopesters. If I can dig up
the old Oulja Board out of the basement Bob Lienert and I will have
some more of them this coming Friday.
The erratic 1943 football season is starting to take on a little
shape. This coming Saturday should loom large in the final outcom
ings of the season. Some of the most powerful teams are matched,
and a couple of the games should decide who is going to be the
victor in what league. The Michigan-Notre Dame game, from all
outlooks, should provide an early season National Football Champion.
These teams 'have been picked as the two top contenders, and the
winner of the Ann Arbor tilt, all calculating right, should go through
to the end. But, as we have said before, this is a screwy season,
and anything is liable to happen. Just keep your eyes open, hang
onto your hat, and don't make any bets.
Hliuisker Sopadl Revamped
With the Indiana game but a
week away, Coach Lewandowski
shook up his starting lineup, and
cleaned house. After viewing the
results of last Saturday's game,
Lewandowski shifted four men
from second, third and fourth
strings, to starting lineup posi
tions. Biggest surprise in the new
lineup was the shifting of Alan
Trant of Omaha, to the left half
back spot on the first unit. Trant,
who was one of the few standouts
in last week's defeat at the hands
of the Gophers of Minnesota, re-

Trouble, trouble, trouble over
this and that seems to be the thing
over WAA way of late. Shoes, for
the freshmen to wear in gym
classes have not come in in huge
numbers in spite of the plea which
appeared Wednesday in the Daily.
The freshmen still need the shoes
and the WAA office will be glad
to act as middleman between
buyer and seller.
Then there is the fact that
the Army haa taken over the
practice fields. It seems that
the girls' phyt. ed. classei want
the fields a few hours every day
and the Army, as always, has a
higher priority. We shall be in
terested to see how things work
out.
Several field hockey enthusiasts
have approached us on the possi
bility of having a field hockey
tournament this fall. They agree
that there will probably be no
more than enough girls for two
teams interested, but the WAA is
willing to sponsor the tournament
for only two teams if necessary.
All girls who play field hockey
and would be interested in play
ing in the tournament should
bring their names to the WAA of
fice. WAA participation points
will be given in this, as well as
all other tournaments.
places Clark Beaver. The same
Alan Trant, was just about left at
home last week as the Huskers
went to Minnesota. He was taken
only after Joe Kessler was de
clared ineligible for the Gopher
tilt.
Tuesday's practice opened with
only light pass and kicking prac
tice, but dummy scrimmage found
other new faces in the Husker first
string line up. Kenneth "Buzz"
Holhns was running at fullback,
replacing big Jim Hansen, who,
after starting against Minnesota,
was moved to the second string.
Two new guards were also work
ing with the first string, Arden
Means of Lincoln, who replaces
Hazard, and Lyle Kops of Bassett,
who filled in the hole left by
Jerry Jacupke. Jacupke was
moved to first string tackle in
place of Bob Patton.
Lewandowski spent Monday and
Tuesday putting his green Husker
squad thru light passing and kick
ing drill. While the boys were
busy working out the kinks from
last weeks tough opener with Min
nesota, Lew took advantage of the
opportunity by showing movies of
the Gopher route. He pointed out,

Basketball Meet Called
All university men wishing
to play on the basketball team
are asked by Coach Ad Lew
andowski to meet in the Tro
phy room of the coliseum at
7:30 Wednesday, Oct. 20.
"Quite naturally we mttde a lot of
mistakes last Saturday, but I think
the boys learned a lot." Ed Wier,
line mentor, hoped to tighten up a
few of the loose spots with new
replacements, before running into
Bo McMillins speedy Hoosier
backs.
Last Saturday, the Hoosiers ran
over a hapless Wabash 52 to 0, and
the previous week, held a strong
Northwestern team 21 to 6. The
Indiana outfit, boasts many fleet
and experienced backs, with sev
eral old-timers back in the lineup.
End Pete Pihos, one of the finest
ends in the country, and Capt.
John Tavener, center, are two of
the mainstays of last year's Hoo
sier team, and freshman back Bob
Hoernhchemeyer makes a formid
able threat to the Cornhuskeis.
Hoernschemeyer played & brilliant
and daxzling game both against
Northwestern and Wabash, and is
expected to be one of the out
standing backs in the nation this
year.
Indiana's probable starting line
up, will consist mainly of fresh
men, augmented b yPete Pihos and
Tavner.
The team is as follows: Frank
Hoppe, left end, 168; Joe Sowinski,
left tackle, 190; J. Coffee, left
guard, 195; John Tavner, center,
195; Bob Rabensburg, right guard,
168; Jesse McCunne, right tackle,
189; Pete Pihos, right end, 192;
Chet Sanders, quarterback. 185;
Bob Hoernschemeyer, left half
back, 177; Don Mangold, right
halfback, 160; and John Cannady,
fullback, 190.
