Friday, November 15, 1946 THE DAILY NEBRASKAN fH 0J5 IKE ED DOEhitLDTEiT Br George Miller The gridiron season is nearing the end. but a number or lm portant games are on tap this Saturday. Here a few opinions on some of the biggest battles: Nebraska vs. Iowa State After a week's layoff the Huskers should be ready to tear into the Cyclones. Since a win is neces sary if the Scarlet is to fly near the top of the Big Six, Bernie's boys will be taking no chances. The Ames combination will be trying hard, for it is the last game of the season for the Cy clones. With this in mind, a two touchdown edge is all we give Nebraska. Oklahoma vs. Missouri This is the game that holds the key to the loop championship. A Mis souri win would assure the Tig ers of no less than a tie,, but the Sooners will be primed for this one and should edge out a nar row victory. Kansas vs. Kansas State Tra ditional battles such as this often embarrass the experts. The K-Staters will be throwing every thing they've got at the Jayhawks, but with Red Hogan back to team with Ray Evans, the KU eleven is too powerful. Illinois vs. Ohio State One of the day's closest contests, this cru cial Big Nine engagement will eliminate one of the teams from the loop chase. Although the Buckeyes have been coming fast recently, the Illini get this vote. Minnesota vs. Iowa Compara tive scores don't mean a thing here, for the Gophers have a better mark against Nebraska. However on Saturday they'll be playing an alert bunch of Hawk eyes and the men of Dr. Eddie Anderson appear to be the stronger of the two teams. Michigan vs. Wisconsin Since the Badgers could not get by Iowa, there is little reason to be lieve that they will be success ful against the power-lajden Wolverines. Notre Dame vs. Northwestern An upset loss to Indiana will have the Wildcats fighting mad. But it will do them no good against the mighty Irish who will probably let down but should still have enough punch to subdue North western. Army vs. Penn Poor Red Blaik! His Cadets get another toughie this week and the Quak- Wi'-l',"1" T'llfTHHIHMMiPllllllllli'inif 11 J ers will be set to do what Notre Dame failed to accomplish Blanchard and Davis are the dif ference but not by much. Yale vs. Princeton They're playing top-flight football in the Ivy League this year and these two are a pair" of the best in the East, with Yale getting the nod. Georgia vs. Auburn The Bull dogs get an easy victory iri their quest for victory No. 8. North Carolina vs. Wake For est A tie is not unexpected here, since the Deacons have a strong defense, but the Tarheels have Charlie Justice and thus a slight edge. Texas ' vs. Texas Christian Dana Bible's Longhorns are not out of the Southwestern race and will keep their hopes alive with a win over the Horned Frags. Texas A. & M. vs. Rice The Ag gies cannot be taken too lightly after their win over SMU, but the Owls are stubborn about giving in to a conference foe and ought to subdue the College Sta tion outfit. Arkansas vs. Southern Metho dist It is a topsy-turvy race in the southwest and SMU is liable to break loose but we like the Razorbacks. UCLA vs. Montana A breather for the Bruins before their all important clash with USC. A win by as much as the Uclans wish. Attention , Cagcrs Any basketball players who have been cut from the squad are asked to report to the var sity dressing room immediately to pick up any personal equip ment they may have left there. Ames Students Form '630' Club To Improve IS AMES, la. The "630 Club" was born on the Iowa State campus during November with the pledge to see "that our school may right fully take its place in athletics among similar colleges and uni versities in the mid-west." Student-organized and student manned, the 630 Club, so named because of Oklahoma's 63-0 win over the Cyclones, is circulating a petition on the campus with the following points: (1). Provision for a man on the athletic staff whose job shall In clude the following duties: (a) work with the faculty on athletes' schedules, (b) reviewing of all applications for admission of ath letes (c) supervising scouting trips to high schools, (d) acceptance of all team invitations that would be advantageous to the college, (e) obtaining Job preferences for ath letes. (2) . Provision of an alumni scholarship fund to be adminis tered by the college to be award ed for outstanding achievement in athletics. (3) . Provision of an active alumni association to contact high school athlcttes. (4) . Provision of a place for members of the football team to live and eat as a group. (5) . Establishment of a physical education department for men. (6) . Improvement of student faculty relations concerning ath letics. (7) . Provision of a sufficient number of coaches, thus enabling head roaches to devote their time to their particular fields. Betas Win Fourth Place in Football Beta Theta Pi defeated Sigma Phi Epsilon the hard way Wed nesday night. With just one sec ond to play and trailing, 0-2, the Betas took time out. It was a long chance even though the ball was resting on the Sig Eps' 10-yard line. Then, on the final play of the game, Justin Berger faded back and threw a direct pass to Dake Novotny, who held on to it long enough to register the winning points. A Sig Ep player finally stole it out of his hands, but the touchdown was good. Thus the Betas won fourth place in the round-robin playoff to de termine points . ' for organized houses. Neither team had scored until the final period when the Sig Eps registered two precious points on a safety. FRIDAY, NOV. 15 COLLEGE NIGHT ; j'l!

Another change cropped up in the Nebraska starting lineup as the Huskers prepared to go onto the field Saturday against Iowa State in the final game before Lincoln fa as. Jack Pesek, husky Ravenna right end, suffered a leg injury in practice and Alex Cochrane, agile Ord wingman, will take over the starting spot against the Cy clopes. Pesek thus joins Tom Novak, Eddie Schwartzkopf, Sam Va canti and Ed Nyden on the in jured list, although Vacanti will probably see some duty at the quarterback position. Utility backfield man Frank Collopy missed the first few prac tice sessions this week and will be used sparingly against Mike Michalske's gridders. Nubbins Advance. In a move to bolster line strength, Coach Bernie Master son has moved three players from the Nubbins squad to the varsity roster. Left end Jim McWilliams of Scottsbluff, right end Ralph Damkroger of DeWitt and right tackle Oscar Mussman of Desh ler were the B squad members who joined Jerry Jacupke, an earlier advancement, on the var sity team. Freshman Coach Pop Klein, who scouted the Cyclones, warned the UN defenders about the hard running of right half Bill Chaun cey, one of the unsung aces on the Ames outfit. Along with Dick Howard ,a speedy breakaway runner, and passer Ron Norman, Cnauncey makes a starting Iowa State backfield a dangerous combination. The Huskers will be seeking revenge for defeats suffered at the hands of the Cyclones for the past three years, the longest win ning streak the visitors have ever compiled. In overall competition Nebraska has won 31, lost eight and tied one against the Iowa Staters. Cyclone Rollinger Leads Nation In Field Goals AMES, Iowa. Harle Rollinger, long kicking Iowa State end, tops the nation in number of field goals this year. His total of three gives him the individual lead and permits Iowa State to top all col leges in the team division. Rollinger counted once against Northwestern and twice against Iowa Teachers. UN Two Milers Run Saturday At Loop Meet With hopes of pulling an upset victory in the Big Six confer ence two-mile race Saturday, Coach Ed Weir and five of his top. runners departed today for Norman. Okla. Making the trip for the Corn huskers are Bobby Ginn, Don Morrison, Jim Martin, Phil My ers, and Harold Kopf. Nebraska's ace two-miler, Bobby Ginn, has been cast in the role of individual favorite, along with two men from the University of Kansas, Harold Moore and Earl Jones. Until this past week when Jones bettered his mark, Ginn had run the fastest two miles in the conference with a time of 9:59.1. DEC . SOl, -All m s. DEC0X It's the first of the month -every few days. The first few Hays of the month were once a lime of feverish activity for tele phone accounting personnel. In that abort period millions of telephone hills' bad to be prepared, checked and mailed. But the Bell Sy6lcm accounting staff, seckhig to level off this work peak, found a practical solution. It's called "rotation hilling." Now in our accounting departments, a new month begins every few days. Account are divided into six or more even groups, each with a different bill ing date. This spreads the work evenly and eliminates the old lat-t-iuinute rush. This special problem, solved by tele phone accountants, is typical of those which often confront management in the many branches of our business. They present a stimulating challenge to the young men with initiative and imagina tion who will find just such practical solutions . . . young men w ho find teleph ony an exciting and rewarding career.
