sign wnen a JSchraska-Missoun
football game was something to
watch, when there was as much
likelihood of Nebraska's being de
feated as of winning. But today
f- .
ers them under.
Nineteen Conference Wins.
Nebraska will take up the bur
den Saturday where the rest of th.
Eig Six and others on the Missouri
schedule have left off. and not
even the most optimistic see any
thing like a close score for tlm
Bengals. From competitive scores,
black and white figures, critical
opinions and not so critical
opinions the Huskers arc due for
another conference win (the nine
teenth in a row ) with the only
question in sight as to just how
large the score will be.
Missouri victory enthusiasts are
as scarce as the proverbial hen's
teeth. They feel the Tigers are due
for a licking, and sit tight and
prav that the final tally won't be
too'bad. The Missourians are ac
customed to defeat, but disgrace,
never!
Cardwell on Bench.
The Husker potential scoring re
ceived a set-back when it was def
initely announced that Lloyd Card
well will not be in the stalling
lineup, and may not play during
the entire contest. The big Scwurd
sophomore ball-toting ace is re
cuperating from a twisted ankle,
which has been slow in healing.
With Kansas State next as tba
team to beat for the championship,
no chances will be taken with
Cardy's well-being, and Rolhn
"Bud" Parsons, Lincoln senior, will
answer the whistle at right naif
for the Huskers. Parsons per
formed in heroic manner after he
was sent into the Scarlet backficM
wher. Cardwell was injured at
Lawrence, and qualified himself as
well able to handle the position.
Undcrstudving him, will be Ralph
Eldridgc, of Norfolk, another speed
king.
Missouri's lineup is intact wiin
the return of Angelo Candeo.
There was some doubt at Rollins
Field in Columbia as to whether
the plucky signal caller would be
able to take over his duties, a
previous game having proved dis
astrous in the form of an injured
knee. But with the return of their
ace back. Missouri will be able to
present its strongest team for the
Huskers to batter, and hope to !
a little battering on their own ac
count. Tiseri Point for Nebraska.
If driving determination count
?
foi much in winning lootba'l
games. Missouri may be able to
ank high against me ihiskcis.
The Bencal. in spite of his appar-
ent tamcness, has set on Nebraska
as his meat, if there is to be any
for H hungry Tiger m 1934. if
that Tigers appetite manes mm
sufficiently savage, he may be able
to pull surprises Saturday, but a
Cornhusker is usually slim pick
ings for Big Six toes. But as has
been the case since the conference
was formed, Missouri has prepared
all season with Nebraska as its big
objective, following a conference
tradition.
Missouri goes into the game with
everything to gain and nothing to
lose. If they are defeated, the
sideliners nod' to each other w-ith
an approving "I told you so." If
they should hit Nebraska for a
win, however, great would be the
reverberation of that blow through
out the I'nited States. The ola
dope bucket says it isn't in th
cards, tho. that Mizzou might as
well take its spanking and like it
Husker Weight Advantage.
Nebraska's starting lineup will
have the edge in weight and r-
! perience over their rivals, another
new feature in Husker opponents.
It will be essentially the same that
played so much of the time against
Kansas, with the exception of Russ
Thompson, game capiam. in juscr
of Harold
Holmbeck at right
tackle.
