Play 0 0 Tic
On Mud Field
Playing on the rain soaked col
iseum grounds, the Nubbins and
University or Nebraska Fresh
men battled to scoreless deadlock
Thursday afternoon.
Coach Pop Klein's Junior Husk
ers, running in two separate units,
clicked in the early stages of the
game and marched to the varsity
13 five yard line, but lost the ball
on downs as the Nubbins forward
wall stiffened.
The muddy gridiron forced both
clubs to resort to straight-away
running tactics and darkness mil
lified any scoring opportunities
via the aerial route.

Halfbacks Jerry Ferguson and
Don Bloom paced the Frosh's
early period drive with assist
ance from Fullback Walt Spell-
man and Quarterback Dutch
Meyer.

service with the Nubbins, but
sparked the B team thru the sec
ond half of play. '

hind the effective running of the
speedy Harry McGinnis -controlled
the play thruout the third canto,
but couldn't muster a scoring
thrust.

After recovering a blocked punt
late in the fourth period, Spell
man's long pass carried to the
Nubbins' 18 yard line. The ad
vance was thrown in reverse,
however, by a hard charging B
line.

Harrington and Bob Farner, and
Guard Bill Kimball turned in the
strong line performances for the
Nubbins while Meginnis, Hale and

Revised Lineup.
Coach Bud Wilkinson of Okla
homa, disgusted by his team's 20-7
losing performance against T.C.U.
last week, is working with a re
vised lineup that includes only
three players who started the
opening game of the season. Quar
terback Jack Mitchell and Tackles
Wade Walker and Bill Morris are
on the injured list with Walker a
doubtful starter against the Cy
clones. Kansas State, struggling under
the nation's longest losing streak
for a major football team, 22
games, will journey to Lawrence
Saturday to play the Kansas Jay
hawks. It was against the Jay
hawks that Kansas State won its
last Big Six football game in No
vember of 1944.
However, Coach George Sauer's
Jayhawks aren't taking the pend
ing battle too lightly. But by vir
tue of its undefeated but twice
tied record and the presence of
Halfback Ray Evans, Kansas is
favored to win by three or more
touchdowns.
