big boost.

Brown Palace and Sigma Al

Theta Xi Wins
Still in League III, Theta Xi
took the measure of Pioneer
House, winning two out of three.
The victory gives the Theta Xi's
.a 6-12 mark, one game above
Pioneer House's 8-13 record. Zeta
Beta Tau holds down the caller
postiion with a record of 1 wtn
and 17 losses.
Phi Delta Theta forged into
the lead in Iague I, copping

and 15-9. The ATO's were also
defeated two out of three by
Sigma Nu, the scores being 15-9,
15-13, and 715. The losses
dropped the ATO's Into a last
place tie with Phi Gamma Delta.
The Fijis lost two out of three
to Sigma Alpha Epsilon. The
ecores were 15-9, 13-15, and
15-10. The win upped the Sig
Alphs Into a third place tie with
Sigma Nu. The Sigma Nu's, first
last week, ran into an improved
Delta Upsilon team, and failed to
win a game. The scores were
15-7, 15-2, and 15-2 in favor of
the DlTs. The victory moved the
DU's into second place.
Sis EPS Share
Sigma Phi Epsilon still rides
atop League II standings, but
finds itself sharing the lead this
week wtih Phi Kappa Psi. The
Sig Eps demolished a Beta Theta
Pi team, 15-1, 15-6, and 15-6
while the Phi Psi's gained a for-
Chisox Want
pO&ScifGQtJ
The Chicago White Sox want
x-Indian Manager Lou Bou
dreau. The lowly Chisox an
nounced today that they would
offer Botidreau a salary of $45,
600 to Join the club as a reserve'
lnfielder or pinch hitter for 1951.
"If Boudreau consents," said
General Manager Frank Lane,
W think he will be worth that
much to us next year. If he is
waived out of the majors, he will
get his unconditional release. But
t least, we want to huddle With
bim anrf get a chance to offer
to pay three-fourths or his Cleve
land salary to obtain him."
Unde the waiver rule, a vet
eran ot ten years or more cannot
take more than a 25 percent cut
in salary. Boudreau's reported
pay at Cleveland was $60,000 to
$65,000 yearly.
The Indians have filed for an
unconditional waiver on the star
shortstop who has a standing
offer to join the athletic staff
feit win over Delta Tau Delta.
The Delts dropped two out of
three to Beta Sigma Psi and find
themselves in a fifth place tie
with the Beta's. The scores of
the Beta Sig-Delt game were
15-6, 10-15, and 15-0. The Beta
Sigs also dropped Sigma Chi two
out of three, winning by scores of
14-16, 15-11, and 15-12. The
victories enabled the Beta Sigs
to remain in third place in league
standings.
The Sigma Chi's also dropped
three to Alpha Gamma Rho by
scores of 15-8, 15,6, and 15-7.
Sigma Chi thus inhabits the cel
lar spot.
Limited Action
League V saw limited action
last week, 'most teams having
completed their schedules. How
ever, three games were played,
ell three affecting the playoff
picture.
Crnhusker Coop assured itself
of a playoff spot with two vic
tories, both being two out of
three wins, one over the Euro
peans and the other over Ne
braska Coop. The scores of the
Cornhusker Coop-Europeans
match were 14-6, 15-0, and 15-9.
Agafnst Nebraska Coop the
scores were 15-13, 5-15, and 15-6.
The double win boosted Corn
husker Coop into second place
in league standings. Europeans
remain in sixth place, one game
ahead of last place Nebraska
Coop.
Presby House saw the most
action in League IV, winning two
out of three from Methodist
House and Newman Club, and
losing three to Ag YMCA by for
feit. Presbys defeated the Meth
odists 15-4, 11-15, and 15-4. The
scores of the Newman Club game
were 15-13, 15-0, and 7-15 in
favor of Presby House. The 4-5
record for this week's play left
Presby House in fourth place, as
suring them of a planoff spot.
Last Place
Methodfst House is in last place

eleven losses. Lutheran Student

In an unconditional waiver,
the price is a token fee of $1
a concession to a ten year player.
Boudreau would have five days
to make rp his mind after the
waivers have cleared to accept
offers. Automatically, he would
become a free agent by refusing
an offer and could then sell him
self as a player if he fails to land
a managerial job.

Courtesy Lincoln Journal,
JIM LEVENDUSKY oper
ated with the first string d
fensive unit in drills Wednes
day after his fine showing
against Kansas State.
It was work, work, work for
the Nebraska Cornhuskers Wed
nesday night as Coach Bill Glass
ford hurried them along in
preparation for the Iowa State
Cyclones which invade Lincoln
Saturday for the 1950 home
finale.
As was expected, the Husker
defensive men drew the brunt
of the load during the afternoon
drill. And pass defense was par
ticularly on the Scarlet agenda.
With passing Willy Weeks ex
pected to throw more passes
than have ever been seen in
Memorial Stadium Saturday,
Coach Glassf ord realizes that his
men must overcome this one'big
weakness.
Seeing action on the defensive
line-up during ihe practice "were
George Paynich and George Pro
chaska at the ends, Charley Too
good and Ed Husmann at the
tackles, and Don Boll and Carl
Brasee in the guard positions.
Backing up the line were Bob
Mullen and Bob Levendusky, the
halfbacks were Kay Curtis and
Ron Clark ' and Bob Reynolds
was at the safety slot.
Also seeing considerable action
were Bill Maxe, Tom Harper,
Rex Hoy, Dick Goll, Jim God
frey, and Dick Goeglein in the
line and Verl Scott and Hyle
Thibault backing up. Don Bloom
saw duty at the halfback posi
tion. Levendusky "moved up 'to 'the
number one unit during the
drills replacing Verl Scott.
Levendusky turned in a spec
tacular performance during the
short time he played against
Kansas State. That was his first
appearance for the Cornhuskers.
Reynolds Holds Third in
Motional Rushing; Near 2nd
Bobby Reynolds continued his
hold on the number three posi
tion and neared the number two
spot among the nation's leading
ball carriers in the rushing de
partment this week. His 141 yards
against the Kansas State Wildcats
last Saturday boosted his season
total to 1,151 yards which is only
61 yards behind second place
Johnny Bright from Drake.
Wilford White of Arizona State
of Tempe is still leading the
pack with 1,272 yards, only 121
yards ahead of Bobby.
Reynolds- will have a fine
chance to move into second place
this week, because Bright's sea
son has been completed.
Bright, however, is leading the
total offense column which takes
both passing and rushing yard
age. Bright's total of 2,400 is a
new national record eclipsing the
old mark set by Frankie Sink
wich of Georgia in -1942.
Rates 12th
Reynolds rates 12th in the total
offense in the nation with only
42 yards by passing to add tq his
rushing total.
Bill Weeks of Iowa State, who
will be leading the attack again
the Huskers this Saturday, also
rates high in national figures. He
is fourth in passing and also
fourth in total offense.
Back in the the rushing de
partment, although Reynolds is
pressing for second position, he
cannot relax and hope to keep
among the top three. Bob Smith,
Texas A & M fullback, roared to
297 yards in A & M's victory over
Southern Methodist last Satur
day. That total boosted his yard
age to date to 1.124, only 27 yards
behind Reynolds.
Smith's performance is termed
the greatest ever performed
against a major opponent.

HYLE THIBAULT . .. was.
praised by Husker coaches for
fine performance on defense
in last Saturday's tussle with
K-State.
Punting plays also on tap for
the defenders. With a double
safety, something new to Husker
football this year, the varsity
worked on blocking in an effort
to spring the punt receiver loose.
Ron Clark and Bob Reynolds
formed the double safety post.
Both men are slated to perform
on both offense and defense
against the Cyclones as is Char
ley Toogood at tackle.
The Huskers climbed to second
in the nation in the rushing de
partment after last week's per
formance. The Scarlet offense
has now an average of 351.3
yards per game only six yards
per game behind first place Ari
bona State of Tempe. The Husk
ers replaced Princeton in the
number two slot this week. The
easterners have a per game aver
age of 345.6 yards.
The Big Seven had three out
fits in the top 15 teams of the
country in rushing. Kansas
ranks as the number five team
with an average of 300.8 yards
and Oklahoma is the tenth team
with an average of 280.6 yards.
Nebraska is the number four
team in total offense "with 438.7
yards ranking behind Arizona
State, Princeton, and Loyola of
California. In this department,
Oklahoma is ninth and Kansas
13th.
Princeton's all-victorious out
fit leads the nation in scoring
with 31.4 points per game. The
Huskers have averaged 30.0
points per contest.
