THREE PLAYS MAKE SCORES Long Runs by Bergman, Recov ered Fumble and Forward Pass Net Twenty Points. PLENTY OF ROUGH STUFF By FRED S. HUNTER. Lincoln. Nov. 30. (Special.) Lug ging enough weight to tunnel a hole through the Rocky Mountains with out even shedding a couple of drops of perspiration, eleven husky brutes from Notre Dam. invaded Lincoln this afternoon and trampled all over the Crnhuskers of old Nebraska. The score was 20 to 0. And thus did the Hoosiers get revenge for the mussing they received one year ago at the hands of the rude Mr. G. Chamber lain, late lamented and departed from our midst. Three plays gave Notre Dame the combat. In the opening quarter Bergman made a forty-five yard run for a touchdown. In the third quarter Baujan snapped up a Nebraska fum ble and scampered twenty yards for a touchdown and in the final period Miller and Bergman worked a for ward pass for a fifty-five yard gain, netting a touchdown. Miller Dootea two goals following the touchdowns, making the total count of the outrage ZO to 0. Simply Outclassed. The Cornhuskers were simply out classed. It was a case of too much of the "goods." Doc Stewart's pets were outweighed about seventeen pounds to the man. When the Hoosiers trotted out onto the field one would have thought that Jess Willard. Frank Gotch, Hackenschmidt and Jeffries were on the squad. And when they lined up against the Corn huskers every Nebraska rooter in the stands offered a silent prayer. But not only did the Hoosiers have the advantage in weight, but they had the advantage in speed, in interfer ence, in driving power, in virility, in forvard passing, in punting, in rough stulf and in almost everything else. The Nebraska line alone held its own. And those seven Cornhuskcr lads on the line played foot ball. If their mates in the backficld had played the indies in 111c imlkikiu iihu ukiycu iiic same brand of ball we might be chrouicaling another story. But they (lulu t. Rhodes and Riddell. I he Husker line was a regular stone wall. It stopped those ava- lanche-likc drives of Harper's men seemingly before they got started and time and again Rhodes, Riddell and Show broken through to down hostile chargers for large losses. The NebrasVa line was outweighed twen ty pounds to the man at least, but we're here to state it played its op ponents right off their feet. To Rhodes, Riddell, Shaw and Cameron must go most of the glory, especially to Rhodes and Riddell. If it hadn't been for those lads there is no telling what score Notre Dame might have piled up. It was up to Rhodes and Riddell to stop any end runs Notre Dame started and Notre Dame started a few with the .fleet foot edBergman, Cofall, Phelan and Miller lugging the pigskin. Three times Bergman escaped the ends. And every time he got away for a long run because the Nebraska secondary defense was powerless to stop him. Those were the only three times he got away. Rhodes and Riddell stopped him every other time. Cofall never did get away and neither did Phelan or Miller. Cameron- Blocks Kick. Shaw also put up a great defensive game, as did Cameron. Time and again it was Shaw who broke through and checked vicious Notre Dame line drives before they got to the line of scrimmage. His play at right tackle reminded one of the days Vice Halli- gan used to smash up everything that came inward his side of the line. Cam- n,n saved three ooints for Nebraska by blocking an attempted place kick from the nrteen-yara nuc. i But while the Nebraska line played its great foot ball, the back fiield was a woefully impotent affair. It had a; chanc. to win that game, but passed ': FATHER HP i- ,s,THEft-OOT v -J mooT J VfJaz: ' x ( TM V Smdl Easily, 20 to 0; ers Are Outclal "l.

Caley recovered the fumble, but he - was thrown for a loss and the ball went to the oppo sition on downs. The Huskersi played Haryer's men to a standstill in the second quar ter. They were showing the same kind of fight they did against Iowa in this period. The line was in every play, busting up everything that Notre Dame had. And tley kept the Catholice from getting near the goal line. Fumble Is Costly. But a fumble ill the third quarter ruined Nebraska's chances. Nebraska had the ball on its own twenty-yard line and started to hike it up the field. But somebody in the backneld funv i , , , -,, : , .

But no matter who funi- bled, somebody did and that was enough. Baujan snapped up the oval ' and outsprinted the Huskers in a race to the goal line. Miller kicked the i goal. Score: Notre Dame, 13; Ne- braska, u. The final Hoosier count was marked up in the final quarter. For half the period Nebraska held its own, due to the superb work of the line. But later the secondary defense made another slip. And that slip gave the enemy another touchdown. Miller hurled a thirty-yard forward pass to Bergman, who snared it out of the air and raced twenty-five more yards for a touchdown. The game was a pretty one to watch even though the tidings were sad to Nebraska supporters. Notre Dame ex hibited its same wonderful interfer ence and its same snappy, gingery plays. They worked the forward pass nicely and Bergman provided the thrills with his long runs. Rhodes, Riddell and Shaw, with their great tackles, also gave the root ers something to cheer about. Conflict Is Rough. The conflict was an exceedingly rough one. There was a lot of dirty work. In the first quarter Bachman, big Notre Dame guard, was banished from the game for getting too frisky. All throuhgthe game slugging, knee ing, elbowing and the like was evi dent. Notre Dame men challenged Huskers to personal combat, Huskers challenged 'Notre Dame men. The Huskers might have emerged victor- I ious it tney naa gone into tne game witli brass knucks or some other sim jar weapon of war, for they couldn't ; compete at the rough stuff with the nusKics num umwud.
