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.
Tom Novak, center; Myers and
Cletus Fischer, halfbacks; Dale
Adams, fullback, and Dick
Thompson, quarterback.

KU gridders, All Big Six selec

other All-Big Six choice, Cap
tain Ray Evans, the George

Pair Circuit
Games Slated
For .Week End
Two conference games are
slated for this week-end with
Nebraska meeting Kansas and
Oklahoma going against Kansas
State. Missouri and Iowa State
travel Outside the loop to tangle
with Duke and Drake, respec
tively. The second largest home crowd
in Cornhusker football history,
30,000, is expected to watch un
defeated, but twice-tied, Kansas
meet the Nebraska Cornhuskers
Saturday. Coach George Sauer's
Jayhawks will try to turn a
trick never before accomplished
by a Kansas university team in a
long time defeat Nebraska on its
home field.
In the Husker camp, Coach
Bernie Masterson shifted Half
back Jim Myers and Guard Ger
ald Jacupke to the starting elevn.
The Jayhawks ran against Ne
braska . plays Wednesday, and
Sauer declared his squad in good
shape. The Kansans will leave
for Lincoln Friday noon.
Oklahoma, holder of one of the
two ties with Kansas, will have
Fullback Eddie Davis and Center
John Rapacz in the lineup against
Kansas State Saturday. The pair
have been absent a week because
of injuries. Kansas State Mentor
Sam Francis did not hold his
usual Wednesday scrimmage be
cause of excess injuries in the
past two games. Regular Fullback
Jim Stehley and sub-Fullback
Kenny Johnston will be sidelined
Saturday by injuries.
Missouri Coach Don Faurot
named 36 men who will make
the trip to Durham, N. C, for
the Duke contest. Ed Quirk, in
jured Tiger fullback, returned to
duty Wednesday and was in
cluded on the traveling squad.
Bus Entsminger did not suffer a
fractured cheek bone in the Ne
braska gcime as was originally
feared and will be ready to go
in the quarterback spot. The
first game of the new Missouri
Duke series will be the Blue
Devils' Homecoming battle.

Behind this giant plow train, burying a new
transcontinental telephone cable, there's a story
of typical teamwork by Western Electric in help
ing the Bell Telephone Companies to give you
faster, even better service.
As the supply member of the Bell Telephone
team, Western Electric is producing the coaxial
cable which can carry 1800 telephone messages
at once can transmit television network pro
grams, too. Complex machines designed by
Western Electric engineers are turning out this
cable mile after mile to keep the plow trains
pushing forward on schedule.
Ever since 1882, Western Electric has been an in
tegral part of Bell Telephone service helping to
make it the world's best at the lowest possible cost.
