SQUAD WORKS ON
AERIAL GAME IN
Nine Men on Temporary Sick
List Get Only Light
Warming Up.
VARSITY DRUBS FROSH
No Serious Injuries From
Mizzou Battle, Except
O'Brien, Tackle.
Handicapped by. blight injuries
received at Missouri last week, the
Cornhuslters turned to serious
preparations for the Iowa game in
practice Tuesday afternoon. With
nine men on the bad list Coach
Bible turned his attention to the
remainder of the squad and &:nt
them thru a long passing workout,
Bauer. Elv. Justice. McPherson
Koster, Kilbourne, Rhea. Joy and
Sauer did not suit up last night
but spent the evening in light
warminr up exercises. These men
are due 10 be in shape by Satur
day, and the majority of them will
.start.
Going up against the freshman
team, the Huskers had fair success
with their passes and running
plays. The team that took he
lield aerainst the vearlinsrs was
made up of Nesmith and Milne,
encis; Bishop, Adam ana Holmbeck
.alternating at guard; Hulbert and
.Schmitt. tackles: CampDell, cen
ter; with Roby, Miller, Paul, and
Penny in the backfield. Petz was
used "at the end position part of
the time and Brown, Staab and
Boswell were given a lot of work
in the backtield.
Passes Get Attention.
The Nebraska pass defense
which had such a hard time stop
ping the aerial attack of the Mis
souri Tigers will be given atten
tion this week as will the passing
offense which has not functioned
properly at any time this year.
The number of men battered
and bruised as a result cf the hard
contest of last week is larger than
at any time this year. There were
no serious injuries, however, with
the exception of O'Brien. This
Omaha tackle may not get back
in shape in time to see action
against the Hawkejes.
Advance ticket sales point to a
larger crowd this Saturday than
;t any home game this season. In
spite of the poor showing made
by the Hawkeyes up to the present
lime, they are bringing a team to
Nebraska that is in the best shape
that it has been this year.
Coach Joe Lehman, nubbins
coach, is whipping his crew into
shape fcr a tougn game with tne
Kearney Normal school. Last week
ICearney overwhelmed the Colo
rado School of Mines. Coach Leh
man has not as yet picked his men
to make the Kearney trip.

These thtee Hawkeye warriors promise to figure largely in the
battle which Iowa will wage against Coach Bible's Cornhusker grld
sters Saturday. Graham, quarterback, will probably get the signal
calling job. Case, at center, is a good passer and accounts for his
share of tackles in the center of the line. Hickman is the boy who
put it over the Huskers at Iowa City last year. Ho .scored the only
touchdown of the game for Iowa in the Hawkeye victory over George
Washington last Saturday.
AMES STORY TELLS
Work of New Iowa State
Coach Described in
News Dispatch.
AMES, la., Oct. 30
of man is this fellow
What kind
George F.
Veenker?
Iowa State college students, still
glowing over the victory achieved
last Saturday by the veenner
coached team are busy asking this
question this week. They find thai
they like the answers.
They iind tnat George, veenner
a sturdily though far from heav
ily constructed man. about thirty
five years old and about 5 feet 10
inches tall is a man for whom his
players would cheerfully walk
through fire. They tmd him
sharply critical on the football
field, yet able to temper his criti
cism with the kind of humor that
often drives harder than anger
would. They are coming to know
him as an exacting taskmaster
tho be is anytning but a slave
driver: they are realizing that in
their new coach the Cyclones have
a football psychologist and a foot
ball strategist.
Veenker believes in fundamen
tals. "We spend half our time,
during piactice on the elements of
football," " one oC the squad re
marked the other day. "Here it is
the middle of the season, yet' he
sent us against the bucking ma
chine this week. He doesn't believe
it's enough to tell us about charg
ing and blocking and tackling and
following the bail at the start of
the season, and then to forget it.
He keeps us at it. And I guess it
shows in our games."
Ask any Iowa State rooter who
saw the Iowa State team outplay
and outgame Missouri Saturday
whether it shows!
Doesn't Overwork Team.
Again: "He works us plenty
hard,' said this man. "While we're
out there we keep everlastingly at
it. But we haven't been on the field
later than 5:45 yet -none of these
three and four hour practices. As
a result, we don't get fed up with
it it's easy to keep up the old
fight."
Veonker on the practice Held has
his own methods of making his in
structions felt. An end in scrim
mage fails to turn back the oppos
ing oall carrier.
"The sideline's a better tackier
than you are," Veenker tells him.
A 'back running interference
fails to move fast enough, gets in
the ball carrier's wav.
"Get out of here," Veenker grins.
"Try your kind of football with the
third team."
A linesman misses a tackle.
"I guess you don't understand,''
Veenker says sadly. "The idea is
to stop the fellow with the ball."
Spurs Men On.
On paper such remarks may
sound sarcastic. On the field,
said as Veenker says them, they're
good-natured they're pointed,
and they never fail to spur the men
to greater efforts.
The coach is a football psychol
ogist. Early in the season he was
heard to remark that he hoped to
build up confidence in his men:
"By the time of the Missouri
game," he said, "I'm going to Eend.
them out there believing that they
can even lick Ankeny high school."
The eagerness of the 20-or-so men
on the squad is evidence enough
that he has inspired the confidence
he desires. He held such veterans
as Nolte, Nagel and Bob Smith out
of the Missouri game until they
were "r'arin' to go," and when they
did get in there was no stopping
them.
Furnishes Plenty of Plays.
He believes in a well -equipped
team, too. He has given his eleven
a wide variety of "scoring plays"
the type of play to be used but
once in a game, and to use with a
perfection of execution that makes
it ft sure ground-gainer if sot a
touchodwn play. The variation on
the old Michigan "Statue of Lib
erty play" which completely fooled
Missouri and scored the Cyclone's
second touchdon was one of Satur
ciny'a pxarnrlps; the end-around
play which beat Simpson was an
other. As they find out about this Yel-

Injured Oklahoman Vets Are
Ready to Start in
K. U. Battle.
EXPECT 15,000 CROWD
NORMAN, Nov. 3. Recovery of
their scoring efficiency and an ap
parently successful hospitalization
of most of their wounded, no one
of whom was reinjured in the con
test against Iowa State, are rea
sons Sooner followers have for ex
pecting a terrific football combat
at Owen field this Saturday when
the ponderous but extremely mo
bile Kansas Jayhawkers entertain
the Sooners before what is ex
pected to be a homecoming throng
of 15,000 people.
Not counting Bill Pansze's
smoothly executed 77-yard return
of an Iowa State punt and Mike
Massad's feat of leaving one Cy
clone tackier prostrate on the turf
as he ran over three of them in
that spectacular 50-yard run with
an intercepted pass, the Sooners
Saturday unleashed an attack that
five times wheeled the leather into
easy scoring distance, only to have
unlucky fumbling, a wild pass and
two placekicks that went awry
preclude tallies, any one of which
would have won the game.
A Better Sooner Offente.
Thi Sooner offense looked bet
ter Saturday than it did in the Ne
braska, Texas and Kansas State
games all put together. Massad
and Dunlap were hitting off the
Ames tackles with stunning im
pact, Captain Warren got off sev
eral of his short hopping runs,
once flitting down to the Ames' 3
yard line after galloping 33 yards
with a lateral from Duulap, and
Pansze showing a suuiprising
aptitude to catch forward passes.
Dunlap's quick punts from short
formation and the blocking of
Watkins, Tee!, Whittington and
Curnutt all .howed that the Okla
homa attack now carries more
point and polish.
Kansas feat of completing eight
of twelve passes for 85 yards
against the Oklahoma Aggies in
dicates that the Jayhawkers will
be formidable in the air as well as
off the ground here Saturday.
Under Coach Bill Hargiss the Jayr
have always been dangerous over
head despite the fact their teami
usually average about 190 pounds
to the man.
Cripples Showed Their Spunk,
Ted Owen, the Sooner trainer,
was drawing satisfaction from the
fact that the seven Sooner cripples,
any one of whom was considered
sufficiently feeble to fall dead if
an enemy player leaned too heav
ily against him, survived the Iowa
State fray.
The game is expectet. to be
fiercely waged as Kansas has lost
three consecutive games and Okla
homa four, although none of them
by decisive margins. . For instance
the Jayhawk defeats were 0-13 to
Kansas State, 0-6 to Nebraska and
7-13 to Oklahoma A. & M., while
Oklahoma's were 0-13 to Nebras
ka, 0-3 to Texas, 0-14 to Kansas
State and 12-13 to Iowa State.

Nebraska! to be met Saturday
at Lincoln, is the first objective of

lessons for the invasion of Husker
domain.
Line Play Improves.
Improved line play, especially at
the tackles and ends, and the first

they have a chance to -upset the
Nebraskans. All of the athletes

Hawkeye ends, chief of whom

turned in their best performance
of the season on defense, but were
much less effective when the team

December 12 With South
Dakota Contest.
FIFTEEN MEN APPEAR
With the opening cage contest
with South Dakota scheduled for
Dec. 12, Coach Black made his

men responded to the initial call.
Of these fifteen there is only one
letter man. this only one being Art
Mauch from Bassett. Bob Lackey,
of Los Angeles, Calif., and Her

considerable action last season.
Outside of these three men, the re
mainder of the candidates were

men making their first bid for
varsity competition were as fol
lows: Walt Henrion, Wichita, Kas.,
Wally Norton, Crete; Kurt Lenser,
Hastings; Charles Scheinost, Greg

fense and fundamentals of hand
ling the ball. The final ten minutes
of the period was spent in the

AMES. Ia. After making his
debut in Bix Six conference circles
both at home and abroad with vic
tories, Coach George F. Veenker,
Monday began laying careful plans
for the invasion Saturday of the
menacing purple powerhouse of
Kansas State.
Back from their win over Okla
homa by a 13 to 12 score, the Cy
clones were inspired as they began
preparations for their biggest test
of the season.
Captain Roger Bowen, Sam Et-
zel and Frank Nolte suffered in
juries in the Sooner game but all
three arc expected to be in good
shape again Saturday when the
Cyclones and K-Aggies battle to
break the three cornered tie in Big
Six flag race.
The reappearance of Warren
Duesenberg in the lineup at Okla
homa after a two week layoff be
cause of injuries proved a big fac
tor in the Iowa State victory. His
defensive work in backing up the
line was little short of sensational.
He made tackle after tackle to
keep the Sooner backs from gain
ing ground.
Saturday's Dad's day contest,
besides featuring two teams unde
feated in conference play, will see
the two high scorers in the Big
Six in action. Dick Grefe, Iowa
