Red Shirted Outfits Work Way Over Freshman Goal
Three Times and Nullify S'earling Advances
With Fast Line Play.
Night was fulling: fast over Moniovial Stadium Wednesday
afternoon before Couch D. X. Bible let up on his Gornhliaker
pridstera in Iheir last major workout before they take the field
against Iowa Saturday afternoon.

froth, and did a nice Job at both
ends of the game, shoving the
ball over the frosh goal line three
times In the thirty minute scrtm
mage, and nullifying freshman
advances with faHt line play. Two
pauses attempted by the blue-clad
new men were Intercepted, an'J
only one appreciable gain by them
was recorded, a thirty-five yar
Jaunt by Jack Dodd, of Gothen
burg. Wednesday's workout ended tho
week's strenuous preparations for
Iowa's Old Gold, with several
changes apparent for the Scarlet
opening lineup.
Almost a whole new line re
sponded to Coach Bible's first call
Wednesday for a team to take the
field against the frosh. Three men
out of the seven who started both
the Wyoming and Minnesota en
counters were listed: Frank Meier,
center; James Heldt, guard, and
Bernard Schcrer, end. Filling the
right guard position was Ladas
Hubka, at right tackle was Rus
sell Thompson, left tack'e was
held down by Harold Holmbeck,
and left end by Lester MacDon
ald. The backfield was composed
of Chief Bauer, Ron Douglas,
Capt. Bud Parsons, and Sam
Francis.
Coach Bible gave no indication
that his choice would rest on these
men for the Iowa game, but they
played thruout most of the scrim
mage. Bauer Makes Touchdown.
The Red varsity kicked off to
the freshmen, but the Weirmau
soon fumbled and a Scarlet line
man recovered. Several line plays
put the ball on the 18-yard line,
from where Chief Bauer broke
thru the line and reversed his field
for the touchdown. Sam Francis
converted the extra point.
Play was resumed with the ball
In freshman possession on the
midfield stripe, but, finding the
varsity linemen opposed to at
tempted gains by the Blues, frosh
quarterback Harold Brill dropped
the ball outside on the 1 1-2-yard
line on a punt. Francis went be
hind his own goal line, faked a
punt, and raced around end for
twenty-five yards. Bauer added
twenty more on an end run, but
the frosh tightened up and took
the ball. Ralph Elridger replacing
Captain Parsons at halfback,
Intercepted a pass soon after, anil
scampered fifteen yards in the
direction of the goal. Bauer
slipped thru a hole in the line for
another gain of twenty yards, be
ing stopped sensationally by Brill,
playing safety. Douglas lost fif
teen yards when Shirley, husky
freshman tacgle, broke thru, but a
pass a play later from Bauer to
Douglas was good for thirty yards
and a touchdown. Bauer passed
It ten, and Douglas outstripped
the opposition rearguard for the
goal. Francis converted again.
Aerial Play Scores.
, The final varsity tally of the
day came as a result of an aerial
offensive staged by a new team
A frosh punt v as blocked by
Vergil Yelkin and Walter PHum,
after the Weir coached outfit had
held the varsity for downs. A for
ward backward from Glen Skewes
to Ray Taman to Johnny Williams
went for twenty-five yards. On the
next play SKewes iaaea one wm

stopped most of the forward

line; and Dohrmann rushed the
passers well, knocking down sev
eral balls as they left Bauer's
or Skewes' hands.
Defensively, both varsity teams
held the frosh well in check, with
the exception of Dodd's long run,
made in the last part of the scrim
mage. Ordwell Has Slight Insjury.

reason of the fact that Lloyd

day's practice session, and held
him on the bench.
Passes figured largely in two of
the touchdowns, while the first, a
thirty-five yard march down the
field, with Chief Bauer and Ron
Douglas doing most of the carry
ing. Sam Francis' line plunging
brought four and five yards at a
clip.
Practice Kicking.
Preceding the scrimmage, the
Red Shirts brushed up on their
offense with placekicklng, block
ing, and passing. Backs and
guards worked together in prac
tice on forming Interference and
getting the man out of the play,
us did other backs and ends.
Francis, Yelkins, and Skewes got
off the best punts of the day,
while Francis and Yelkins did
best at placekicklng goals. A long
dummy drill was had, with the
varsity linemen bumping the
canvas-covered dummies.
The starting Red lineup had
Franklin Meier at center; James
Heldt and Ladas Hubka at guards;
Harold Holmbeck and Russell
Thompson at tackles; Lester Mc
Donald and Bernard Scherer at
ends; Chief Bauer calling signals;
Ron Douglas and Game-Captain
Bud Parsons playing halfbacks;
and Sam Francis holding down the
fullback post. The second varsity
team was composed of Willard

and Wallace DeBrown, guards;
Walter Pflum and Ed Uptegrove,
tackles; Ray Toman and Vergil
Yelkin, ends; Johnny Williams,
quarterback; Bob Benson and Ron

Coach ft ill Use One Group
In Varsity Scrimmage;
Other on Plays.
Freshmen Varsity will be divided
into two squads early next week,
according to Coach Ed Weir. The
squads will go under the name of
"Blues" and "Yellows." By this
means it will be possible to have
one outfit scrimmaging the regular

working on the plays of the next
Husker opponent..
Friday night the freshman var
oltv will nlav an official tame With
the B team. A few gridsters have
been dropped from the varsity so
there may be additions to the squad
from the league teams. It has
been necessary to take the suits of

Coach Harold Petz Predicts
Tough Game Against
Plainsmen.
Opposing a pick up group of
freshmen who were standing
around without anything special
to do, Coach Harold Petz ran his B
team through an extended workout
Wednesday afternoon. The B team
is busying Itself with preparing
for its game with the Wesleyan
Plainsmen which will take place
October 19 at the Wesleyan field.
According to reportu from the
Wesleyan athletic office it will be
a night game.
Beaver, regular B team fullback,
wag hitting the freshman line for
some nice runs. The offensive
work of Thomas and Durfea in
the B lineup was also outstanding.
Chase, O'Sullfvan and McQlnnis
looked good among the linemen.
Coach Petz expects a hard game
with Wesleyan. The Plainsmen
will have, a strong line as they are
being coached by Jerry Adam, star
Cornhusker guard of a few seasons
back.
Every man on the B team who
ha& turned out for practice four
nights a week will be entitled to
an individual pass to the Iowa-Nebraska
clash. The Nubbins earn
their way into the game by the
punishment and buffing which
they receive at the hands of the
first varsity freshman teams dur
ing the season.
SPORTSING
By
LLOYD HENDRICKS
Altho the World series is now
history an interesting sidelight of
the event was the interest shown
by the nation's capitalist superior,
Henry Ford. Mr. Kord took an ac
tive interest in all the series games
even going so far as to see that
they were broadcast under the su
pervision of the Ford Motor Co. at
an expenditure which amounted to
over $100,000.
There of course was some rea
son for Mr. Ford's sincerity in pro
moting the national pastime. With
the Dearborn-River rtouge plants
located in the vicinity of Detroit,
there were many men employed in
them who were keyed up about the
games.
Mr. Ford has evidently taken a
different attitude with respect to
athletics of different types lately.
It used to be that when questioned
as to his views on football, Mr.
Ford would reply, "Football, 01
what use is it?"
So far he has not taken an ac
tive interest in any football as lar
as we have been able to asceitain.
But his support in aiding the ra
dio public to be present audibly if
not physically at the world se
ries was indeed gratifying.
Dizzy Dean, ace pitcher for the
Cards, chalked up another new one
on the record books Tuesday when
he collected two hits in one in
ning. For a pitcher this is a new
world series record.

lineup for the game, Young died
last July from mooa poison.
We deplore to mention things in
this column which will in any way
distract from the popularity of
football. Deeply touched nn sym
pathetic are we to hear of foot
ball's first fatality.
It occurred when Edwin Thioie,
captain of the Valley Mills, Kas.
high school team died from in
juries received in a game with a
high school team from Lorena,
Kas. We have always felt that
many hlch school players were
playing football when it was a
game that was beyond thoir years.
This unfortunate nign scnooi
athlete was only 17 years old. We
are aware of the fact that many
high school footballers are young
er. It seems to us however that age
has some bearing on an athlete k
ability to take and give punish
ment. The trend should be to lengthen
the age limit on high school play
ers rather than shorten it by
eligibility standards. A boy does
not stop growing until he is eight
een or over and to exercise violent
ly before that time is dangerous
to his physiclal makeup. Let us
hope that there will be few more
of such accidents of which we have
to be reminded. Go cssy should be
the by-word with all high school
coaches as well as conches who are
now in school and expect to take
over a team later.
T.iUo fathnr. like son is the case
with two members' of the fresh
man football squad at Iowa State,
Lawrence Nelson of Red Oak, and
William Ryan of Des Moines.
Nelson's father, u a. iNeison,
played on the Cyclone football
tpnm from 1905 to 1908. Ryan's
father, W. L. Ryan, while not a
football player, was the first stu
dent manager of an Iowa State
team, in 1894.

Four leaders were knocked from
their lofty perch as a result of hec
tic games in the Intramural touch
football tourney Wednesday night,
thua leaving Acacia and Sigma Nu
the sole possessors of the lead in
Leagues 1 and III respectively.
League I s games were featured
by Acacia's 18 to 0 victory over
Phi Sigma Kappa with Phi Psl's
1 to 0 triumph over the D. T. D.'s
as the semlwlndup. Pi Kappa Al
pha assumed sole possession of last
place as a result of their 14 to 0
drubbing at the hands of the Beta
Theta Pi's Greek football team.
Sigma Nu set the pace In
LcHgue III by nosing out the A.
T. O.'s by the count of 6 to 0 nnd
were aided by the Phi Delt a vic
tory over Beta Sigma Psi's nine by
the same margin. Theta Chi sent
the Z. B. T.'s into last place by
beating them by a 13 to 0 score.
All the teams show vast im
provement over their initial day's
performance and as a result the
league races promise to become
hot before the end of the meet. All
the teams are in there battling
away from start to finish and
they re right in the spirit of the
game. This verifies Coach Petzs
judgment in stating that touch
football would be a success as an
