HUSKER TEAM IS
TALK OF SEASON
(Continued from page 5)
greatest game of the season against
the Irish, and some critics have said
that Nebraska was fit to defeat any
team in the country that day.
Notre Dame scored its lone marker
in the last few minutes of play when
she forward passed her way down
from the middle of the field. In the
second quarter she was on the
Husker eight-yard line and was held
on downs.
The playing of Captain Lewellen
and Dave Noble featured the game
again. Lew's generalship and the
manner in which he handled the team
were largely responsible for the vic
tory. Big Dave's line plunging never
failed. He made both touchdowns,
the first through the line, and the
second when he snagged a pass from
Rufus Dewitz.
The last game on foreign ground
was played with Ames, the Huskers
returning with a 26 to 14 victory.
The game was noticeable for the
number of injuries received. Dave
Noble had been injured in the Notre
Dame game and did not get in the
battle with Ames at all.
The Iowa State touchdowns were
both made by forward passes in the
final period, and it looked bad tor ,
Nebraska for a few minutes. Rob
ertson ran for the first Nebraska
touchdown; the second one was made
by Herb Dewitz after a series of line i
plunges. Rufus Dewitz intercepted
an Ames' pass and ran for a the third
touchdown. Lewellen made the final j
score after catching a pass from ,
Rufus Dewitz. 1
The Cornhuskers entered the hard- j
est game of the season, that with j
Svracuse. in poor condition. Many
of the men had been injured in the
Ames game and had not been in a
real practice since. They fought
with all they had, but that was not
enough and they finally fell before j
Syracuse's mighty team by a score
of 7 to 0.
In the first three quarters, the
Nebraska team showed wonderful j
fight and held the Syracuse eleven, j
Many of the men were carrying in
juries that should have kept them out (
for the rest of the season. They ,
could not stand the strain, however, (
and they finally went down fighting j
in the last,, quarter.
Nebraska completely out-played
the Orangemen in the first half, and
it looked as though Syracuse would
taste of the same medicine fed to
Notre Dame. The Nebraska linemen
threw the Syrause backs for losses
time and again.
The Syracuse touchdown was
made in the final quarter, after the
Orange had marched 80 yards up the
field, by a pass over the goal line.
The defeat of last week has made
Nebraska fighting mad and a victory
over the Kansas Aggies is looked for,
although everyone admits that it will
be a battle from start to finish.

NEBRASKA'S COACHING STAFF
As his able assistants he has had
the sen-ices of Owen Frank who has
had charge of the most of the Dack-.
field work, and Line Coach Schulte.
With this combination, along with
Coach Dawson's personal tutoring,
the squad has developed wonderfully
this year. It will be remembered that
when Nebraska kicked off the first
time this season she had five new men
in the lineup, these men have since
been drilled to be regluars.
Billy Day, ex-captain and former
Missouri Valley center, has been an
assistant line coach this year and it
has been under his personal guidance
that Hutchison and Wostoupal have
become the players they have. Ex
captain Chick Hartley, Missouri
Valley fuliback, has had charge of
the new backfield material this year
and Leo Scherer has been instructing
the ends.
Farley Young, the freshman men
tor, has been largely responsible for
the success of the Husker season in
drilling his freshmen in opponent's
plays and formation. The week pre
teeding a game Farley had his team
drilled to perfection in the plays of
the team Nebraska was to meet that
Saturday and he sent them in scrim
mage against the Huskers using
those plays. Captain Hagen of the
military department has been an able
assistant of Young's with the backfield.
EVERTT CRITES
Ev is a fast halfback. He was a
member of the varsity track squad
and his speed enables him to -cover
football ground in dazzling runs.
He is shifty and tricky in his bll
lugging. He will make a stronger
bid for a regular berth next year.
He is a member of Sigma Phi Epsi
lon and his home is Central City.
MONTE KIFFIN
Kiff is a hard-hitting halfback.
He has not been used this year but
he is drilling hard every night and
learning the ropes. He is a hard
worker and next year will no doubt
be given an opportunity of showing
his stuff. He lives in Lincoln. He
is affiliated with Pi Kappa Phi fraternity.
