Friday, November 7, 1947 THE DAILY NEBRASKAN PAGE 3 IHIusEseirs' OSally For KO Eleven Bucking a cold, sharp wind that swept the Memorial Stadium practice grounds Thursday night, the Nebraska Cornhuskers went about final drills in a businesslike fashion as they eyed the Kansas Jayhawk battle Saturday afternoon. Coach Bernie Masterson drilled his Husker charges once again with stress on pass defense. The Nubbins filled the air with footballs while running from KU formations. In spite of the fact that Ne braska has not lost a home game to the invading Jayhawks, Coach George Sauer's Mt. Oread charges are tabbed a two-touchdown fa vorite to snap the jinx and virtu ally eliminate the Huskers from further Big Six title considera tion. But the Huskers have not con ceded victory. Instead they only point to last year when the high riding Kansans were rocked 16-14 by an underdog Husker eleven on Lawrence soil. The Huskers have placed hopes for a Homecoming win on the sturdy, hard-churning legs of Jim Myers. Myers was moved to a starting assignment Monday to add power to the Husker offensive machine. Jacupke at Guard. Another new face in the Ne braska starting lineup will be that of Gerald Jacupke, 201-pound guard, who replaced Gene Wil kins in the first team line. Ja cupke's outstanding reserve per formances earned him the start ing berth. Only other advantage in addi tion to the home win jinx that the Huskers hold over the Jay hawks is in the weight statistics. Tony Blazine's linemen, with an average of 214, -give the Nebras kans a team average of 199 while the lighter Kansahs tip the Fair banks at a mere 186-pound aver age. In spite of the weight disadvan tage the Kansas eleven paces the Big Six in every defensive depart ment while ranking fourth na tionally in total defensive. They also rank sixth in rushing de fensive. Biff Six Choices. Five all-Big Six choices dot the Kansas roster in the persons of Capt. Ray Evans, halfback; Otto Schnellbacher and Dave Schmidt, ends; Don Fambrough, guard, and KU's place-kicking expert, and Lynne McNutt, quarterback. Evans, a triple-threat great vot ed by many as Kansas' greatest athlete, sparks the Jayhawk ma chine that has rolled over Iowa State and Kansas State and bat tled Oklahoma to a deadlock. The Husker starting lineup In cludes: Jack Pesek and Ralph Damkroger, ends; Charlie Toogood and Carl Samuelson, tackles; Fred Lorenz and Jacupke, guards; Capt.
