There will be a day of reckon
ing in all football rivalries, and
one of these days is coming up
Saturday when the Huskers and
the Hoosiers get together for an
afternoon of gridiron activity at
Memorial stadium.
For the past three years the In
diana club has poured topheavy
defeats on the war-weakened
Huskers. In 1943 Bo McMillin's
ball team trounced Nebraska 54
to 13, in '44 the count was 54 to 0
and last year the Scarlet got 14
and again Indiana collected 54
points.
Hence Bernie Masterson's ball
players will be out to try for a
bit of revenge. Nebraska may

not win, but you can bet that the
score will be nothing like the
scores of the past three years.
Prior to the war the Indiana
Nebraska scries had produced
some thrilling - battles and the
Huskers had the edge three wins
to two before untried teen agers
took over the pigskin spotlight.
This year finds the two teams
similar in a number of respects, j
Each has won two games and both
have been beaten by Iowa by the
same number of touchdowns. In
juries will hamper both clubs to
morrow, the Hosiers' Pete Pihos
being unable ,toi devote full time
to his fullback! duties and the
Huskers' Sam jVacanti being un
able to sling his pases with the
desired effect. ;
36,000 Expected.
The 36,000 fans who are ex
pected to jam Memorial stadium
for the game will be watching
Ben Raimondi, the Indiana passer
who ranks first in the nation.
As an added attraction, Raimon
di will be presented with the A. A.
Ruzzulo trophy, given annually to
the outstanding athlete of Italian
ancestry. Governor Dwight Gris
wold will be on hand for the cer
emony. The ceremony will be nothing
new to one Husker, for Sam Va
canti received the honor a few
seasons ago for his work with
Purdue.
UN Has Top Average.
Although the Nebraska team
has won two and lost two this
season, it leads all other Big Six
squads in average points per
game. With 60 points in four
games the Huskers have an aver
age of 15 points a game, trailed
by Kansas with 14.6 and' Okla
homa with 14.5. . Indiana has
scored 41 points in five contests
for an average of slightly over
eight points a game.
Indiana has the best of the de
fensive averages .allowing foes
H.2 points a game, whle Ne
braska's opponents have averaged
17 tallies.

BLOOMING TON, Ind. In
diana's football forces, given a
two-week respite from Big Nine
competition, set out today for Lin
coln, Neb., and Saturday's inter
sectional contest with the Univer
sity of Nebraska Cornhuskers.
Best Since '36.
The Hoosier-Husker pigskin
party has been one of the coun
try's best football attractions
since 1936, when Coach Bo Mc
Millin personally arranged this
long-term intersectional rivalry.
McMillin long has been a pop-.
ular figure in the Cornhusker
precincts. As early as 1927, Ne
braska fans were marveling at
the manner in which his under
dog Kansas State elevens bat
tled almost on even terms Ne
braska's perennial Big Six
titlists.
McMillin's Indiana elevens have
become an even greater attrac
tion at Lincoln. The 1937 Hoosiers
drew more spectators than any
team to appear in Nebraska's sta
dium, and the series has presented
chapter after chapter of stirring
football lore. In the inaugural
contest of 1936, Indiana scored
nine points in the first half, Ne
braska tallied 13 points in the last
half, and when the game was
over, Dana Bible, then the Husker
mentor, said: "It was all even
you won the first half and we won
the second half."-
It was not until 1941 that In
diana was able to register a vic
tory, and now the Hoosiers have
won five straight, scoring 54
points in each of the last three
contests.
McMillin has been engaged in
pigskin patchwork all week in an
effort to get Indiana's crippled
eleven up to maximum strength.
Fullbacks Pete Pihos and Harry
(Chick) Jagade, Guards Howard
Brown and Frank Ciolli and Abe
Addams, regular left end, prob
ably wil. be missing from In

Mile Relay Set
As Half Time
Entertainment
Eight of Nebraska University's
prospective quartermilers will
provide halftime entertainment
Saturday at the Nebraska-Indiana
football game.
Early Preview.
Since Indiana is not bringing
a two mile team along with the
football squad, Coach Ed Weir
has decided to send two of his
mile relay teams into action
against each other in an attempt
to get a line on prospects for the
track season which is not too far
off.
Trackman nominated by Weir

Vollertsten, Bill Conner, Fritz
Ware, Harold Kopf, Bill Moore
house, Loyal Hurlbert, and Dick
Young. The eighth member of
the group has not yet been se
lected. Hurlbert 's time of 51.9 seconds
in the 440 the past week has
been one of the more outstanding
performances turned in by a
trackman so far this fall.
Nubbins Meet

The Nebraska Nubbins will go
after their fourth consecutive vic
tory tonight when they meet the
Kansas State B team at Manhat
tan. Coaches Ray Prochaska and Bob
Kahler have named 32 players to

turn engagement between the two
outfits.
Two weeks ago the Husker B

over the Wildkittens in Lincoln.
Quarterback Kay Cleavinger and
Ilhalfback Del Ehret sparked the
K-Staters in that game and will
