    THE DAILY NEBRASKAN
SPECULATE AS TO
ROCKNE'S PLANS
Notre Dame Coach Has Habit
of Starting Second String
Men.
Cornhuskera are wondering wheth
er Knute Rockne will have the necg
sary nerve to start his second string
team against the Husk era. So far
this method has proved very success
ful and it is probable that it will be
followed.
There is a psychological twist to
this matter of starting the reserves
that probably has had something to
do with Notre Dame's success. A
team that has battled with a reserve
team for a quarter and has been un
able to get anywhere worth mention
ing is likely to become discouraged
when the real team is sent in.
In spite of this talk about a "sec
ond team" there is probably little dif
ference between the Rockne regulars
and the reserves. Any reserve team
that can hold some of the leading
elevens in the country on even terms
is not to be taken lightly. Usually the
first string has not done a great deal
better than the reserves.
Clatter of Upset Dope Buckets
Resounds Through Gridiron Worldl
The clatter of tipped-over dope
buckets re-echoed from wall to wall
in a dozen football stadiums after
victor and vanquished had withdrawn
from battle scarred gridirons last
Saturday. Teams favored to win by
substantial margins went down to de
feat, or were barely able to avert dis
aster at the hands of teams that from
all indications were of inferior
strength.
Due to their flawless record up to
this time, coupled with the brilliant
performances of "Red" Grange, the
21-to-21 tie to which Illinois was held
by Coach Stagg's Chicago eleven,
stands out as the biggest upset of
the day. At one time the Chicago-
ans led the Zuppke eleven 21 to 7,
but the work of Grange served to
pile up enough points to allow Illi
nois to emerge from the battle with
a tie score. The Illini are still in
the race for the Big Ten champion
ship, although Chicago is also unde
feated in the conference.
On the coast Washington Univer
sity succeeded in holding the Cali
fornia eleven to a 7-to-7 tie, in a
game played on a rain-soaked field.
Another point in. using the re-1 The Golden Bears scored first in the
serves is to save the regulars. Rock
re's first team men are light and
fast. They are prone to grow leg
weary if used for an entire game
Then the snap is gone and the of
fense has lost its power.
Rockne wants to beat Nebraska,
naturally, but he wants to win this
year more than ever. Nebraska has
smeared an otherwise perfect record
for the last two years and this has
naturally somewhat annoyed Rockne.
Whether he will start his second
team and trust to psychology, hoping
that the seconds can hold the Husk
ers, is problematical. If the Husk
ers should smash through the re
serves and pile up a lead that could
not be overcome, Rockne would prob
ably curse the day that he ever heard
of psychology.
third quarter, but the Washington
team launched an aerial attack that
took the ball over the goal line. It
was the third time in four years that
the Californians have been tied. In
the same period of years they have
never suffered a defeat.
The defeat of Southern California
at the hands of St. Mary's was very
much of an upset, as the Methodists
had shown a great deal of strength
against California last week holding
them to a 6-to-0 count.
In the east Princeton, playing a
wonderful brand of football crushed
the Harvard team 34 to 0. It was
the worst defeat Harvard has ever
suffered. They were completely out
classed by the Princeton Tigers
and the crowd of 55,000 people who
packed the Harvard stadium, saw
Notre Dame Line Is Quite Competent
Despite Rockne9 s First Predictions
By Ed Morrow
(Sports Editor Nebraskan.)
Having discussed the Notre Dame
backfield, the line might now be giv
en a little attention. This line, from
all reports, is indeed deserving of
more than a little attention. A light
forward wall, that has stopped the
heavy linemen of half a dozen good
teams, is something to ponder over.
Knute Rockne moaned in his usual
mournful key this fall that he "didn't
have a line." Teams that have
played against the inefficient line of
Mr. Rockne's may be inclined to be
lieve that he was spoofing.
As usual Mr. Rockne has a pair of
ends who have managed to get along
this far without being imposed upon.
Rockne was an end himself and he
seems to have learned the art of
teaching the other boys something
about the assignment.
His tackles, "Rip" Miller and Wei
bel, have caused moro or less annoy
ance to opposing backs who cherished
the mistaken idea that they were
easy to plunge through. The Army,
Princeton, Georgia Tech and Wiscon
sin found that these young gentle
men are reasonably capable.
The bulwark of the center of the
line is Walsh, center and captain,
who has shown a striking leaning
toward making this year's ail-American.
Perhaps even the exclusive Mr.
Camp may take off his reading glass
es and look far enough across the
Alleghenies to see Walsh.
Hard luck has handicapped the
Notre Dame star so far this season.
A broken hand received early in the
season has kept him out of one or
two games. He played against Wis
consin, however, and he will undoubt
edly be in good condition to tackle
the Huskers. Centers who have
played against Walsh may have won
dered what he would be like if he
were in shape,
while Captain Ed Weir, whose play
ing has verged on the ail-American
quality, is at the other tackle. Weir
had been bothered by injuries most
of the season and his work has not
been up to standard. Against Col
gate, when he was in good shape, he
played so well that the New York
boys finally detailed three men to
take him out. Molzen, also has
been in poor condition due to injur
ies and has been given only light
work for the past week. Neither will
be in top shape Saturday.
Rob Roy Robertson, an end who is
good enough on defense to cause any
football player to lose a night's sleep,
will be at one end. Robertson has
shown an unfortunate lack of ability
to catch a ball, however, and adds
little to the threat of the team on
offense. Collins, who is stationed at
the left wing, is also a fine end.
Collins is able to catch a football
without the aid of a basket in addi
tion to being a fast man down the
field and a genuine obstruction in
the way of plays directed at his end.
Roy Mandery, heavy and fast, and a
good man for the passing game, is
distressingly green. If he knew
enough about football to assist him
greatly on defense he might force
one of the regulars to fight harder
for his job. So far as the ends are
concerned, Nebraska is strong. If
the other linemen were equally cap
able the Huskers would have less to
worry about.
their team wafted aside like a feather
in a high wind.
Rutgers looked better than ever
against Lafayette, a team which
should have given them a hard game.
The Rutgers backs had little trouble
in going through the Lafayette elev.
en, and defeated them decisively 43
to 7. Pennsylvania, undefeated in
the east, had a narrow escape against
the supposedly inferior Georgetown
University team, winning a hard
fought game 3 to 0. In view of the
fact that Lafayette was defeated by
Penn last week by the small margin
of 6 to 3, and were so decisively de.
feated by Rutgers, Rutgers looks like
the real champions in the eastern
sections.
West Virginia schools made a gala
day of the occasion, West Virginia
university tromping on Colgate 84 to
2, and West Virginia Wesleyan de
feating Syracuse 7 to 3 the first
defeat the Orange team has suffered
this year, although they were held to
a 7-to-7 tie by Penn State two weeks
ago.
Another big surprise in Big Ten
circles was the defeat of Ohio State
by Indiana 12 to 7. Ohio State is
quite a problem this year. Against
some teams they have shown surpris
ing strength, and against others they
have looked like a small college team
Three tie games embellish the Ohio
State record so far this season, two
of the tie scores being registered
against strong Big Ten opponents,
Iowa and Chicago.
Notre Dame did just what was ex.
pected of them and won from the
Wisconsin Badgers without being
forced to extend themselves. When
the whistle ended the game, the
Irish first and second team had 38
points to the Badgers 3.
Next week comes the big game
of the season. All eyes will be turn
ed toward the Notre Dame-Nebraska
game, and what will happen on
the South Bend gridiron will un
doubtedly go down in the first pages
of football history. Last year came
the cry, "Who ' will stop Notre
Dame?" The Cornhuskers brought
forth a decisive reply. The fans ask
the same question this year, but
they qualify it by saying, "Who will
stop Notre Dame, if Nebraska does
not?"

Nebraska's line this year has not
measured up to the famous forward
walls of previous years. Lyman,
Pucelik, Berquist, Weller, Peterson,
Day, and the other great linemen
who have caused the bright dreams
of many teams to vanish, are gone.
In their place are men far less ex
perienced and much lighter.
Hutchinson, who has been out of
the game since the Illinois clash, will
probably be back. If he were in
good shape there would be little
doubt that he would give Walsh plen
ty to keep him busy. Hutchinson
scales 191. Wostoupal, who has been
filling in for Hutchinson, has played
very smart football. As Wostoupal
is likely to hold down the center for
at least part of the game it is well
to count on him. Wostoupal has the
weight, but lacks Hutchinson's ag
gressiveness and experience.
Hubka, a 185-pound guard, Van
played a fairly good game, but not
one that would cause the football
critics to become excited. Joe Weir,
the 165-pound running mate of Hub

well last year, has been doing fairly
well this year and may be given a
chance to start against the Irish. Pos
