FIRST STRINGERS TALLY Fahrnbruch and Mathis Lead Goalward Drives for Regular Eleven. Spectacular dashes by Fred Murray and Jack Miller stole the show from the first string Wed nesday as this pair of reserve ball carriers dashed thru for two touch downs and a total of 34S yards in thirty-three plays against the freshmen. The workout marked the final scrimmage before the Iowa game. Murray, former Omaha Tech .star, climaxed an afternoon of powerful offensive drives on the part of the varsity with a great ! 95-yard run to a touchdown on the first play after the second team Centered the fray. Twisting away ; from half a dozen tacklcrs, Mur- ray made for the sidelines a la ' Lewi Brown, and sped the rest ' of the distance unhampered to the goal. Overstreet's kick was wide. 1 Starting from the fifty-yard line 2 later, the reserves pushed over a second touchdown on the year I lings.

Ed, a leading figure in Corn husker athletics for a number of seasons and twice captain of Ne braska football teams, started his career at Superior high school where he was an all around star in football, basketball and track. He shone as a backfield performer in football, was an outstanding center in basketball and an all around man in track. Weir won the interscholastic pentathlon title and twice captured all event med als in the high hurdles and once won the pole vault in the big state prep meet.

On the cinder path, Ed hlionc in the hurdles, being one of the greatest timber toppers on the collegiate track during his years of competition After leaving the college halls, Weir kept on with his athletics.

He played end with this club and was a member of the team when it won the title. When Dana X.

Long sprints by Chris Mathis featured the second parade of the first string, the Tecumseh lad plunging over from the 3-yard line on the eleventh play. Pass defense came in for drill at the beginning of Wednesday's ses sion, as it is understood that the Hawks are preparing to launch an air attack on the Cornhuskers Eagle eyed Boswell led his team mates in breaking up Bauer's flips, but Ely, Masterson and Mathis had an active hand in stopping the frosh aerial offensive. Franklin Meier stood out for the second team in batting down the yearling attempts. Bruce Kilbourne got back into the lineup Wednesday after a rather long layoff and took care of an end position in good shape. Kilbourne has been bothered since the Minnesota game with a twisted knee, but his play yesterday indi cated that he is about to return to active duty. Another Nebraska casualty, Corwin Hulbert reported for duty, but his activities consisted largely of limbering up in a track suit. A boil kept Hulbert out of the Kan sas State game last week, and he will probably see most of the Iowa game from the bench. j Ten Survive First Round University Free Throw In the All-University free throw tourney ten men survived the first round held in the coliseum Tues- t-SS DOLLCAI2E ASlOE FOfi A OA OR SO AMD SEE AW toon ecfs aud eiRS at THE. 0WIVEI?5nV HAVt in store, rantiu oj DADS' DAY Qf7 1L " - '-"TJ rfS,!

One of the largest crowds in Ne braska football history will attend the Pittsburgh-Nebraska game at Memorial stadium a week from Saturday, if advance ticket sales are any' criterion. Business Man ager John Selleck declares that about IS, 000 tickets have been sold, with the classic still ten days away. General admission seats available the morning of the game are expected to boost the attend ance to 30,000, which would mean a sellout. Pitt, favored to represent the East at the Rose Bowl this year after blasting Notre Dame from the undefeated class last week, plays University of Pennsylvania at Philadelphia Saturday. Also un defeated, Penn is expected to Rive the Panthers a terrific battle, which would not put Coach Jock Sutherland's men in prime condi tion lor the Husker tilt at Lincoln. Coach Bible's men vowed that thev would avenge themselves thi.s year after taking a 40 to 0 lashing from the Smoky City crew at Pittsburgh in 1931, and the Corn huskers are already pointing for the Pitt team. George Sauer, who injured a thumb in the Minnesota game, will be kept out of the Iowa fray this week for the sole purpose of giving his hand a chance to completely heal. Corwin Hulbert, regular left tackle, is taking things easy awaiting the Panther menace as is Steve Hokuf, who plays such a powerful game at right end. In resuming their annual grid argument with Iowa U. this week, the Cornhuskers find themselves in a breathing spot for Ihe first time this season.

To Award Cup. The Thanksgiving morning re vue last year consisted of ten acts. submitted by fraternities and so rorities on the campus. The Kappa Kappa Gamma-Delta Upsi lon combination musical revue was judged the best act in the revue j and awarded the Magee cup. The I cup will be awarded again this year to the act judged by the au- Uience to be the best entertainment j on the program. The complete program for the rortncoming revue will be an nounced within a few days. Skit applications are being judged by the Klub at the present time, and definite announcement will be ; made made in about a week. Coach D. X. Bibie was wearing a broad smile at the conclusion of Wednesday's practice. His second string ball carriers had finally ex ploded, and with such devastating efiect that they blasted through the freshmen almost at will. Fred Murray, one time pride of Omaha Tech's barkfiekl, and blocky Jack Miller ripped through the frosh defense to score two touchdowns against the yearlings, but it was the manner in which j they did it that elated the Husker coaching staff. These two Omaha boys were running fast and hard through the line and around the ends. They knew where they were going, and it didn't take them long to get there. By their fine play Wednes day, the entire reserve backfield of Miller, Murray, Overstreet and Staab will undoubtedly get an op portunity to go against Iowa Sat urday. It looks as if the first j string backs may have a chance to rest for awhile, after a long spell I of hard games. j Contrary to pcpular belief, a boil isn't always an indication of poor physical condition. Corwin Hul bert, who was released Wednesday from the infirmary, is in the best shape of his varsity career, or was until that pesky boil placed him on the sidelines for the Kansas State game. It seems that the boil de- j veloped from a bruise just below 1 the elbow of the arm Hulbert uses ! so effectively in smashing through j for a tackle. Although be lost some weight, 1 the veteran tackle will probably see some action against the Hawk-' eyes, but just enough to put him 1 in fine fettle for the Pitt Panthers. Henry Chief" Bauer has lost i none of the shiftiness and passing j skill that characterized his work i with the Huskers last year. Bauer, ineligible for the varsity this fall is keeping in shape by playing with the freshmen, and "in Wednesday afternoon's scrimmage was the ; lone blue jerseyed man able to , gain through the red shirt line, j "Chief" has two seasons remaining of varsity competition. j since outlived their usefulness and died by administrative or Student Council ruling. Organlxatlont Abolished. Three of these groups were the Iron Sphinx, so-called Sophomore honorary group, Vikings, occupy ing a similar position in the ranks of the Junior classmen, and Green Goblin, Freshmen organization. Often these groups saw to it that they cashed in on various social functions, but no laxity is now to be found which could make such methods feasible. Of course there is no room or cause for doubt that individuals gain funds in villous private en terprises around the campus and in the houses, by selling papers to lazy collegians, selling tickets to unsuspecting people at a higher price than that which they them selves paid for them and in many other 'vays. Student organization on the campua of the University of Ne braska is far from being that "loosely-strung moss" which Miss Zoretskie alleges it ts at other schools, and those deiiving funds from productive labor on the campus are far from being just one happy group of grafters as one might be led to believe upon perusing the storv in the Sunday Journal and Star. "And when thev are Graduated." says Miss Zoretskie, "they start selling bonds." Of course that re mains to be seen. TRACKMEN RUN SATURDAY Five Two-Milcrs to Compete In Conference Test at Lawrence. Five two milers will leave Fri day afternoon for Lawrence, Kas., where they will compete Saturday morning in the Big Six champion ship two mile meet. Francis Ayres, conference indoor champion at this distance, heads the Husker entry list which includes Jim Sto rey, Roy Blazer. George Morrow ftnd Howard White. The party will be in charge of Louie Ktherton. Glenn Cunningham of Kansas, who placed fourth in the Olympic 1500 meters run this summer, is favored to win Saturday, with his strongest competition coming from Chapman, Iowa State., and Ayres, Nebraska.

In a scrimmage about two week ngo, Ed intercepted a varsity pass and proceeded to tear down the field. However, he was smeared so tard by three opposing tacklers that the ball popped out of his arms and rolled fifteen yards. Yesterday, Weir intercepted a second string pass and bifl Journey did not end until he crossed the goal line ninety-five yards away. His yearlings furnished excellent blocking on the play.
