After watching alma mater deflate the Lincoln Cen
tral boys and listening to the wonderful results of the
Gopher-Husker tilt, we'd say football really came into its
own this last weekend.
The scores of other ball games indicated though that
I it was best for the young nephew
to have our crystal ball to break
into a hundred pieces. Any
woman willing to give lessons in
the art cf intuition will find
some veiy needy prospects
around the Daily Nebraskan
sports desk. Or perhaps intuition
is no good for forecasting foot
ball games.
Coach Bill Glassforcfs squad
came out of the Minnesota fracas
in top shape. There were the us
ual bruises but no serious in
juries were sustained. Safety
man Ron Clark got a badly
bruised hand but will be ready to
go against Colorado.
Glassford 's chief criticism cf
the Minnesota game centered
around the defense. He said that
the tackling still isn't as far along
as it should be. The pass defense
was another black eye on the
Husker showing. He was dissatis

spent the rest cf the game fight
ing off Newman assaults.
In the opening period Bob
Shuler faded back and hit Bex
Xnowles in the end zone for the
first score. A pass from Bill Mun

extra point
In the same stanza, the whole
Presby line broke tisrough to
block a Catholic punt and Gary
Jonelyn scooped up the ball and
ran cn-er for the second Presby
touchdown. This time Mundell
passed to Norm Sothan for the
extra point
The Newman Club centered
their attacks in the third and
fourth periods against the Presby ',
reserves.

In the third quarter a Newman
pass from McCurdy to Neil

the Catholic did not wore.

By Bill Mondell
Sports Kditor, Dailr fenkM
Hats off to Bill Glassford and his fighting Corn
huskers. That's the sentiment of every football follower
on the campus today. Because of their scrappy footballers,
the students of NU can hold their heads high once again,
when someone asks them how their football team is doing
this year.
For the first time in ten years the mighty Gophers
of Minnesota have fallen before the onslaught of a Husker
grid machine. And what's more, for the first time in 48
years, they have fallen to Nebraska in Minneapolis. It's
been a mighty long drouth, but now it's over.
The 32 points amassed by the Cornhuskers in Minne
apolis Saturday are by far the most markers made by any
Nebraska football team against the Gophers in the history
of their many meetings which stretches back over 50
years. Fourteen was the previous high. The Huskers made
that in their last win back in 1940..
Sophomore Bobby Reynolds added considerably to
his already large total of yards rushing in the game Sat

day with 98 yards to his credit. The averages of the Daily Ne-

Only five backs carried the ball for the Huskers j lower and lower over last week's
Saturday which makes it appear as though it was a pretty ! series of upsets. The averages
select backfield. Minnesota gave the ball to ten Gophers
in hopes of finding a couple that could consistently dent
the Husker defense.
Reynolds, Mueller, Fran Nagle, Ron Clark, and Bill
Wingender were the Scarlet five.
Nagle was the only Cornhusker throwing the leather
during the afternoon, too, while six Gophers tried their
hands at the aerials. Nagle averaged over five yards per
flip.
Two Huskers handled the punting for Nebraska,
Reynolds toeing the ball seven times and Wingender once.
Two Gophers comprised the Minnesota kicking staff, also.
Reynolds average of 38.6 was tops for the afternoon.
Both teams had four receivers for their passers.
Wingender, Reynolds, Larry Carney, and Gerry Ferguson
were the NU pass catchers. Wicgender's 32 j-ards in re
ceptions was the high mark in that department.
The two teams were penalized only 65 yards during
the game, the Gophers 35 and the Cornhuskers 30.

.500.
Upsets such as Purdue over
Notre Dame and Wisconsin over
Illinois were missed by all nine
experts.
Bob Eeichenbach and Jerry
Warren came through the hectic
afternoon with seven out of ten,
identical to their last week's
scores. Both lead the pack now
with .700.
In third place now is Bill Mun
dell wiih an average of .650.
Mundell correctly doped out only
six last Saturday.
Three men. Bob Banks. Chuck
Burmeister, and Frank Jacobs
are tied for fourth with a .600
percentage. Burmeister and Ja
cobs missed four last week while
Banks dropped five.

Futcher Leads
Theta Chi to
12-7 Victory
John Futcher passed the Theta
Chi's to a breathtaking 12-7 vic
tory over Pioneer House Monday
night in intramural grid compe
tition. With only five minutes remain
ing in the contest and Pioneer
leading by a 7-0, count, Futcher
opened his spectacular barrage.
Hitting Dale Link, Jim Burkhard
and Dwaine Van Pelt at will,
Futcher directed the Chi's to the
Pioneer 8 yard line. From here
he sent a perfect pass Into the
arms of Link and the Theta Chi
cheering squad had their first
opportunity to yell.
Their happiness was cut shorW
however, as the try for point re
sulted in a fumble, but Futcher
was not through yet

playing safe with their on point
margin, decided to pass and ft

Theta Chi's ball on the Pioneer

Futcher again took control and
fired the game leading touch
down to the arms of T.jnV,
There was no scoring in the
first half although both teams
drove to within striking distance.
The winners had the first op
portunity for points but bogged
down on the Pioneer 13.
Pioneer drove even closer and
reached the Chi nine-yard line,
but this attack fizzled just before
the half.
The Pioneer men jumped to an
early second half lead when Bob
Dwehus shot a four-yard pass to
Jim Spease and Spease outran
the Chi secondary for 68 yards
and a touchdown. Jack BusscU
passed to Wes Beery for the
point
are Jack Cohen and Dick Ford.
Both split 5-5 last week.
Rounding out the nine experts
is Rod Biggs who let six get
away from him last Saturday. His
current average is .500.
Pick-of-the-week last week
went to Jerry Warren and Frank
Jacobs with their selection of
Tennessee over Duke. The other
seven fared badly on this one.
Other sticklers for the prognos
ticators last Saturday were as
follows: Four picked Kansas
State and were beaten, three
picke Pennsylvania and saw that
turn sour, and four tabbed UCLA
the winner and saw Washington
dash their hopes.

To 19-0 Win
Pi Kappa Phi roared to its
third straight victory Monday
night by crushing Acacia, 19-0.
. Behind the passing of Warren
Sheffield and some fine catches
by Bill Odman and Jack O'Neill,
the Pi Kaps were never in very
serious trouble although the Aca
cians gave them some hectic mo
ments. The Masons attacked first
when early in the game, Floyd
Goff blocked a Pi Kap punt and
ran at to their eight yard line
From there the Acacia men ad
vanced it to the two in three
plays. A determined try for the
score on the fourth try resulted
in a tumble and the Pi Kaps
took over.
The first play advanced the
ball to the five and then on sec
ond down, Sheffield burled a
long one that O'Neill gathered in
on the 45 and dashed the rest of
the way to the goal A Sheffield
to Odman flip made the score
7-0.

The Acacia boys tried igain
and this time drove to the Pi
Kappa Phi six yard line before
bogging down. The Pi Kaps got
tbe ball out of trouble and the
Acacwts started again. This time
their drive m-as really cut short
as Odman icier tented a pass and
high-tailed st nearly 50 yards for
another Pi Kap score.
The third quarter was a see
saw affair that saw m-jtber side
able to move the ball much past
mid-field, but the victors, had
one more burst left in them.
They drove to the Acacia five
yard marker with only one min
ute remaining and Host the ball
on downs. Acacia tried a pass
and it was good for three. An
other pass was incomplete but the
third went into the arms of a Pi
Kap defender.
With only atf onds remaining,
Sheffield again flipped it into the
end xone lor the final score.
