THE DAILY NEBRASKAN
Freshmen Gridmen Close Season's
Work of Training Varsity Elevens
By Douflaa Tlmmarmaa
The yearling football artists turned
In their equipment Thursday,
thereby ending the 1926 season as
far as they are concerned. Their
record merits praise and complimen
tary remarks. Not only have they
placed their one contest in the vic
tory column, but also they have been
a large factor in the training of the
Varsity for both their major and
minor games.
Starting with a squad of eighty
candidates the freshman, although
dwindling in numbers as practices
wore on, offered formidable resis
tance to the Varsity regulars. Night
after night they appeared to take all
that was sent against them by the
regulars. Such cooperation on the
part of the yearlings had much to
do with the various Varsity successes
this fall. Bearg soon recognized the
worth of the younsters and situated
them on the south field, ready for
his. call.
With the Kansas Aggie game al
ways in sight, the yearlings went on
for over a month doing those things
which were needed to condition the
Varsity. As the time for their tus
sle drew near, they redoubled their
vigor and acquired the famous Ne
braska spirit to aid them in defeat
ing the strong Kaggie eleven. Play
ing an alert game, they took advan
tage of the numerous Aggie breaks
and won 23 to 15.
Many of the squad then proceeded
to lay back on their laurels and the
next practice night witnessed an ab
breviated squad reported to Coach
"Choppy" Rhodes. But his call for
more men was answered with great
spirit, and ensuing nights found an
appreciable increase in the number
on hand.
Regular sessions and the Kaggie
game brought before coaches and
fans the possibilities for future Corn
husker teams. After all a team can
not remain great without an abun
dant supply of new material con
stantly coming in; and that Nebras
ka has.
The linemen were numerous and
efficient. It is extremely hard to
pick the outstanding performers.
Usually they lined up with Toms and
Lewandowski at the wing positions,
Munn and either Richards or Jeffries
tackles, Ray, Craig and Broadstone
playing guards, and Case holding
down the pivot positions. Prucka
and Rodman, ends; Morgan, Eno and
Bushee tackles and guards; and Lem
cue, center participated in numer
ous contests and gave the regulars
plenty of opposition.
From the brilliant array of back
field stars, one finds a problem in
selecting the luminaries. Sloan and
Witte called signals in the majority
of the games with Miller being the
gene-al nany times. McBride, Sloan
and Roll got the call at half and Far
ley was practically unopposed for
the fullback berth. As a defensive
player he was par-excellence in the
backing and bolstering of the line.
Work in All Weatkera
From the observations obtained by
witnessing the yearlings work-out
through good and bad weather, the
writer selected a first or "A" team.
This lineup would place the follow
ing in regular berths; Toms and
Lewandowski at ends. Toms is
lengthy and a pass-snatcher of abil
ity while "Lew" is valuable princi
pally as- a wonderful defensive play
er. Munn, who corresponds to
Monte's shadow, along with Richards,
Pawnee City giant, get the tackle
positions. The guards are as dif
ficult as any to select, but Ray, 210
scarlet thatched youngster, and Craig
from Ag college win the laurels,
Case, a regular pastimer, receives the
center berth, but Lemcue's play in
the Kansas Aggie game is worthy
of honorable mention.
In the backfield, Elkins stands out
as the premier quarterback. His work
in the Kaggie game was heady and
aggressive. McBride at right half
and Sloan playing left half are the
stars of the backfield quartet. In
the art of line-plunging and broken-
field running, McBride has no rival
and should file a formidable bid for
a Varsity position next year. Like
wise, Sloan of Verdon is performing
in worthy style, his ability to grasp
passes from any angle being an im
portant factor in the freshman of
fense. Farley at full is a steady
and efficient member of the back
field company.
This seasons team is a worthy re
presentative of Nebraska football
Combining a light, speedy backfield
and a fast but heavy line, the year
lings can claim one of the most
powerful elevens in freshman foot
ball history. Good wishes for sue
cess on the Varsity next year are
extended to those who so regularly
came out for practice.

parades through the city Wednesday
night and Thursday morning. "We
are including several concert num
bers in the repertoire in case the
band has an opportunity to do any
thing of the kind," stated Maaske
Saturday afternoon. "We will prob
ably go on the field between the
halves of the game and work out the
formations 'N' and 'W," he said.
The band will have for its own
use, a special car and tourist sleeper,
both of which were well decorated
with Nebraska pennants. Unless the
alumni have made other arrange
ments these cars will be used as the
headquarters while in the city. Four
officers of the band are in direct
charge of the organization during
the entire trip. They are: Captain
Maaske ; First Lieutenant R. V. Hoag
land; Second Lieutenant Thomar
Maxwell and Second Lieutenant
Mumford.
Those men making the trip are:
Professor Quick, Barnes, Elder,
Klotz, Houchen, Hoagland, Hierson,
Yoder, D. McCormick, Vertiska,
Yordy, Burdick, Conant, Cadwal
lader, Lotspeich, Battles, Elwell,
Laing, Schick, Wiren, Maaske, Mil
ler, Whitaker, Mumford, Maxwell,
Eklund, Hanuelesicz, Beck, Ley and
Kenworthy.

"Blue" Howell, line-plunger, who
entered the game yesterday after
early season injuries had kept him
out of tussles, and who scored the
first touchdown for Nebraska in the
Saturday battle. Nebraska owes her
collection of first downs in the game
largely to this smashing line-plunger.

FORMERLY ARMSTRONGS
Import Shop
By Lou Hill
Yes the artist got his idea from
an "imported" dog-that's all the
dog has to do with what wTe have
to say, except as he is an English
looking pup it helps carry out the
idea of our Import Shop, where
most everything shown, or con
cealed is imported.
Ben Simon & Sons, Import Shop,
by Lou Hill, is a source from
which you can secure a world of
information on "what to wear
and when to wear it," in addition
the cases are full of the "wherewith-all
for all occasions.
Oxford Clothes and Lou Hill are
synonymous among University
of Nebraska men. Lou makes
more clothes for them than any
other tailor in Lincoln.
If "Oxfords" are a little strong
Lou has a great line of distinctly
Collegiate Clothes at S35 and
$40.

SECRETARIES
HOLD MEETING
Alumni Secretaries Form Sec
tion of National
Association
Preliminary organization of a Mis
souri Valley section of the Associa
tion of Alumni Secretaries was ef
fected at a recent meeting in Kan
sas City of alumni secretaries or
representatives of Oklahoma Univer
sity, Missouri University, Kansas Uni
versity, Kansas State Agricultural
College, Drake University, and the
University of Nebraska.
Presidents and alumni secretaries
or representatives of all collegiate in
stitutions in ' Oklahoma, Missouri,
Kansas, Iowa (except the University
of Iowa, which is associated with in
stitutions in the 'Big Ten' group),
and Nebraska will be invited to a sec
ond meeting in Kansas City early in
February. A number of men prom
inent in the educational world, in
cluding Glenn Frank, noted president
of the University of Wisconsin, have
been invited to speak at this meet
ing, which is to be devoted to a con
sideration of the fundamental prob
lems of education and alumni influ
ence rather than to matters of rout
ine method.
Harold F. Holtz, alumni secretary
of the University of Nebraska, at
tended the meeting in Kansas City.
"Because of the dominance of East
ern colleges in the national associa
tion and the difficulties of travelling
long distances to attend meetings,
alumni secretaries in this section
have long felt the need for some sort
of an organization," he said. The
association is not to be confined to
institutions in the Missouri Valley
athletic conference, but an effort will
be made to get all schools in this
area interested, according to Mr.
Holtz.
An official blazer has been intro
duced at McGill University. They are
of scarlet flannel and trimmed with
silk braid.
