When the Nebraska and the Kan
sas State Wildcats meet on the
gridiron Saturday afternoon at
Manhattan it will be a battle be
tween two Big Seven teams look
ing for victory number one in the
1955 campaign.
The Wildcats lost their first two
outings to the University of Wyom
ing and the University of Iowa on
successive weeks, while the Husk
ers were dumped by Hawaii and
Woody Hayes's powerful Ohio State
Buckeyes, ranked in the top ten
nationally.

Glassford is having at Nebraska
lack of depth.
20 Numeral Winners
Mertes has 20 lettermen left
over from the team which won
seven and lost only three last year.
This included a victory over the
Huskers at Lincoln. Some posi
tions though, are exceptionally
thin such as the halfback posts
where only two lettermen reported
in the original squad of 60 candi
dates. Only the tackle and guard
positions seem set in depth.
Glassford also is having his
troubles. He is trying desperately
this week to get a little more
depth on the Cornhusker squad,

day and some of these for only a

Job At NBC Radio
Leo Durocher, after 30 years of
baseball, has taken an executive
job with NBC radio. He will not
be a regular broadcaster, but will
arrange for sports talent on other
programs.
Durocher resigned Saturday
from his manager's post for the
New York Giants. His salary in
that slot was reported in the $60,

K-State Figured Rough
Glassford stated early this week
that the Huskers must improve
before Saturday if they are to de
feat the Wildcats.
The : lasT time the Huskers M!K,S,,VeJeW
vaded Manhattan's Memorial Stad
ium, in 1953, they were soundly
beaten 27 to 0. Then as is now the
case they had just returned from
a terrific battle with another Big
Ten team; the University of Illi
nois. Just what will happen this
week end is p toss-up and spirit
may spell the difference who will
win.
Barring practice injuries the
University of Nebraska should
have their full squad ready for
the Saturday contest which is the
initial conference test for each
team.
Willie Greenlaw, halfback, from
Portland, Me., is currently leading
the Husker backs with a 5.3 aver
age on 12 carries. He also has com
pleted five out of six passes, in
cluding four for four against Ohio
State. Rex Fischer and Harry
Johnson are both averaging 5.1
yards.
Fischer, Butherus, and McWil
liams are the leading pass receiv
ers after two contests.
Managers Needed
Managers are urgently needed
by both the basketball and the foot
ball teams. All boys Including
freshmen are eligible and should
report either to Jerry Bush at the
Coliseum or at the field house to
the football staff.

For Husker grid mentor Bill Glassford this year's schedule seems
to me the roughest of them all.
Not only must he Drenare hLs Cornhuskers for ten of the roughest
vnipcunun wciwccii mc jmvb aim emus ul nis coucnuig acuity us voiceu
by many "loyal" Nebraskans, sports scribes included.
But for Glassford, who has found the perfect role of taking most
everything with a grain of salt, Saturdays continue to roll around once
a week, no matter how hard the writers may protest. And it can be
easily noted that as the Huskers improve, outstate dissension tapers
off and surely enough the thousands of fans who renounced the Huskers
after their upsetting opener will once again say "That's OUR team"
after a creditable performance such as last Saturday. As a matter of
fact it seems to be a policy with most journalists to voice one opinion
before the tilt and afterwards reverse it in order to retain neutrality.
But to Bill Glassford Saturdays still are here to stay.
Iron Men Can't Hold Up
The Huskers have been working mostly on their depth this week
in preparation for their first loop competition at K. State. Last Satur
day 24 men shared the brunt of the Buckeye attack and held up quite
creditably. But with eight games to go depth is a must.
Those first 24 Huskers look pretty sound but from there on the
weakness begins to show. This was the outlook taken at the Husker
camp as the first two elevens took it easy Monday and let the bench
strength improve as they scrimmaged. What the subs lack in experi
ence they can make up in spirit and a combined effort is going to be
needed for a successful season.
Injury May Hamper
The Huskers were dealt a reeling blow Tuesday as first string
guard and key to the Husker forward wall Jim Murphy broke his leg
during a scrimmage. After the announcement that Murphy was out for
the season it was also announced that letterman end George Mink, just
out of the service, will miss the Kansas State game but will enter the
Husker workouts next week.
One way the Nebraskans are solving their depth problem and the
problem of spirit is the fierce competition that is going on for positions
on the squad. The biggest contest is between Bog Berguin and Doran
Post for the center slot. Each have
the nod last week.
So, ell in all, Saturday's fray can either make or break the Ne
braskans. If they fall back into their opening showing they may never
again catch their stride. But with hopes for a winning year they must
keep their standard of play up to the caliber of last week.
