PROSPECTS NOT SO ROSY &6RNHUSKER8 SHOW UP POOR IN YESTERDAY'S PRACTICE SUBSTITUTE BACKS ARE NOT GOOD Scrub Ends Distinguish Themselves In Twenty Minutes' Play When Varsity Makes Only One Touchdown. With but two more days loft for practice before the big contest, things do not look' quite so rosy as Coach Cole and his helpers might wiBh. The work of the varsity so far this week has not tieeh at all satisfactory. The1 men are still slow in getting off and are not showing as much ginger hs might be wished. In yesterday8 scrimmage at Nebras ka flold the best tho varsity could do was to make one touchdown on tho scrubs In about twenty minutes of scrimmage. The scrub ends, especial ly. distinguished themselves by break ing through and spilling somo of tho varsity plays' In their very inception. . Of course the fact must be taken Into account that not all the varsity men were in tho scrimmage and what wore there were fearful of receiving Injuries. 8ubs 8how Up Poor. One disappointing feature of this weok's work 1b the failure of tho sub stitute back field to come up to ex pectations. Elliott at full, however, put up the best game of the season last night and hopes are entertained that' If necessary ho may be able to fill this position satisfactorily in tho Kansas game. Sturtzonegger Is tho only substitute back field man who Is showing -any real knbwledge of the game. He Is pretty light, but can be counted on to give a good account of himself when called on Saturday. With the" exception of these two num. NoDraskaTwill have to'gb into the game Saturday with 'one set of backs. Bentloy has about fully recovered from his injuries received In the "Minnesota game, but, Colo is not taking any chances. Pranck is being regularly drilled at quarter and Magor switched from dnd to right half. This will leave Chaunor-and. Johnson as ends jind In no-way weaken 'the team In this re "specC With such a switch Cole can materially Increase his back field strength. Over an hour, was dovotod ,to scrim mage work and in perfecting tho var sity defense in yesterday's practice. - Special attention was given to puriting, getting down oh punts, and lino hold ing' in punt formation. " In 'last Satu'r day'a.cbntest -some of Nebraska's punts camodarigorously near being blocked, n-'lnpoinVtancoan attempted place kickac't'ually was blocked. v ' fcoltjjer Temple nor Pranck appeared in'yesterday's- scrimmage,- and Several otbjSr 'men iw.ere given '"but a, short ses sion Of Hard .work.

Some of these were tried, out against fthe scrubs yesterday with moderate success. Of, course the scrubs were onto the varsity signals anil knew just how to break, up trio plays.

The first team was sent In against Wash- &&.'.& Mfe-MSSf :'. BEAT burn last Saturday, with tho result that several of tho Kansas stars are now nursing bruises. Since the Minnesota-Chicago game the Kansas coaches have also began to sit up and take notice. Thoy romomber that Ne braska held Minnesota to a' 14 to 0 Bcoro at Omaha two woeks ago, end that 20 to 6 score at, Minneapolis last Saturday looks rather ominous. Tho scrubs go to Sioux City Satur day to tako on Mprningsldo. It Is even money ,that there will bd a surprise for in the Mornlngsldo camp before the game is ended. So far the names of tho players have not been published, but will probably bo published "tomor" row. UNION LIT8 MEET FRIDAV NIGHT. Regular Weekly Meeting; to Be Held In Temple at 8:15 p. m.
