OUT FOR YEAR Nebraska's

State game last Saturday, will

mainder of the season with a

Girl's Swimming Club.
The Girl's Swimming club will

MU; Costello Out
With a mounting iniurv list a sputtering Nebraska
grid machine continued preparations Wednesday night for
the Big Six showdown test with Coach Don- Faurot's "T"
tutored Tigers at Columbia Saturday.
Coach Bernie Masterson dipped
into the Nubbins' ranks onpe again
to bolster his injury weakened
varsity aggregation. Two of Coach
Ray DeBolt's "B" gridders were
called up to replace Center Bob
Costello, lost for the remainder of
the campaign because of a chipped
vertebrae in the small of his back
suffered in the K-State fracas
last week.
Unger, ration Up.
Hubert Unger, 185-pound cen
er, was called up as insurance to
support Tom Novak and former
Nubbins Bob Mullen. Guard Bob
Patton was promoted to the var
sity to fill Costello's shoes in the

Another team is needed to com
plete the faculty bowling league
according to an announcement
from Dr. V. W. Lapp, in charge
of the inter-college leagues for
faculty.
Any faculty member wishing to
bowl can be placed on a team if
they contact Dr. Lapp, Ext. 21,
this week.

department.
Another shift to strengthen the
center position saw Francis Man
dula moved to that post from his
guard spot.
Master6on's charges went
through a light but lengthy work
out Wednesday. Particular empha
sis was placed on offensive ma
neuvers. A third team unit ran
from Missouri formations to give
the first two varsity squads de
fc ive practice.
Iron Man Role.
Little Joe Partington, who has
been used sparingly to date, may
be back in his 1946 iron man role
doubling as a quarterback and
center replacement. Partington
will take over Costello's line back
ing chores. And should Dick
Thompson's knee not hold up and
Del Wiegand require relief, Par
tington will see service directing
the "T". ,
The first team lineup saw only
one change from the group that
started the lasttwo contests. Alex
Cochrane was running at left end
in Ralph Damkroger's spot. Dam
kroger's availability for the Mis
souri game is doubtful. Bob Ack
erman was running in Cletus
Fischer's right halfback spot while
the MU game captain was in a late
class.

Zing! . ; ; and the damage is done.
A bullet . . . intended for game . ; . pierces
an exposed telephone cable.
Instantly, hundreds of wires are open io
the ruinous effects of moisture.
Instantly, too, nitrogen gas . ; . stored in
the cable under pressure . : : begins its slow
escape, keeping dangerous moisture out.
And, as the gas pressure falls, a small con
tact closes and an alarm is sounded in a
Bell Telephone tc6troom many miles away;
Through mathematical plotting the break
is readily located and, within minutes, an
emergency crew is on its way. Repairs are
frequently made before telephone service
is interrupted.
This alarm system is but one of countless
expedients all of which reflect the initiative
and ingenuity of Bell System personnel . . :
men who find highly interesting and re
warding careers in an ever growing business.
