Thursday, November 4, 1948 THE DAILY NEBRASKAN PAGE 3 BsutdiwaAmstii. BY HAROLD flBRAMSON Few Husker fans realize the rebuilding process Nebraska's football squad is going through. While other teams have been building their football stock Ne braska has been resting on its laurels. Fans virtually expected the Nebraska team to wipe Kanass off the field several weeks ago. Yet, we wonder how many fans realize the rebuilding that has been going on in such schools as Kansas, Oklahoma, Missouri and Iowa State. While. Nebraska teams were rollectins: championships through the pre-war years these teams were slowly building. Came the war and Cornhusker stock look an unexpected drop as players were called to war. Now Coach Potsy Clark and his coaching staff are beginning the long rebuilding process. This year's freshman squad is one of the finest since before the war and a great many hopes are be ing based on Top Klein's frosh. Potsy has taken one big step towards putting Nebraska back on top. He is Riving many young players valuable experience by sending them into contests against lop opposition. Everyone realizes thai Nebraska is potentially dangerous and Big Seven squads have always respected the lluskers! Let's rehash a couple of Ne braska's past victories and glance at the 1925 grid season. The Huskcrs' first game was against Illinois and the "Gallop ing Ghost," Red Grange was boxed beautifully by the Ne braska squad- Grange was never tible to make a getaway and the ball game resulted in a stunnina 14-0 defeat for the lllmi. The touchdowns were made by Ne braska's Dailey, one on a 40-yard runback of a kickoff and the other on a 35-yard run following an intercepted pass. In the final game of the season wiih Notre name, a strong Irish team was tlio.oughly beaten and held scoreless. Rhodes tallied on a run at the beginning of the game. A completed pass from Brown to Mandery. followed by a 3?-yard run brought another touchdown and furlher humilia ' lion was added when Capt. E. Weir kicked a 25-yard field goal. Ed Vvcir who is now track coach at the university made the All America team for the second con secutive year. Nebraska's 41 year span in col lege football has seen the llusk ers take the championship 22 times. This includes victories in 1907, '10. '11, '12, '13, '14, '15, '16, '17. '21, '22, '23, '26 before the Big Six conference was organ ized. DTDTromices Sigma Nu 22-0 Delta Tau Delta romped over Sigma Nu Wednesday afternoon 22-0 in an Intramural playoff game at Ag college. Jim Sharp led the Delt offense pitching passes for all of. the DTD touchdowns. Snarp figured in the first counter when he tossed a pass to Ray Van Norman for pay dirt. The Delt's got an easy two points when Sigma Nu attempted a pass n their own end zone. The pass was no good. Sharp flipped another pass to Harold Breetzke in the waning minutes of the first half for a T. D. Sigma Nu almost had a touch down when they marched 50 yards for a score only to have the play called back because of a backfieid in motion penalty. Mel Engler galloped five yards for the Dclts final touchdown. Engler caught a sharp pass and did some fine broken field run ning to score.

Freshman Cage Squad Begins Fall Workout s Frosh Coach Tony Sharpe has been working with 6fl cagors daily on the coliseum courts. Opening drills have been con cerned mainly with fundamentals and conditioning work. The large turnout has been broken up into two practice ses sions in order that more individual attention may be given to the boys. Group 1 meets from 3 to 4:20 and group 2 from 4:20 to 5:30. This is also designed to give can didates with 3 o'clock classes a chance to try out. The rosier includes many prep stars. Jack Deffenbauph was a standout forward on the Lincoln high state champs of 1946, and is a top prospect on this year's fresh man team. From Omaha prep circles come Ed Akromis from South, Subby Ruma from Omaha Central, one of the top scorers in the intercity league last year, and Tom Mosiman of Omaha Tech.

The varsity squad worked of fensive plays against a six man line. Clark had Phil Young, Bill Mueller, Del Wicgand and Frank Collopy running in the first siring backfieid. Wiegand was having a tough lime becoming adjusted to a new noscguard. The ace passer broke his nose last week. Potsy juRgled a few of the po sitions on the first string line.
