THREE TUESDAY, MAHCII 21. 1936. THE DAILY NEKKASKAN 1 HUSKER GRIDMEN START DRILLS W D TlflM i ui nun Sam Francis Leads in List of Kickers; Dodd, Andreson, Howell Promising. All thiH week Coach D. X. Bi ble's grid family will be kicking about 60 yards, the mentor hopes. Punting has been presented to the Huskers only once this season, thus explaining their only average kicking In scrimmages thus far. Believing that punting is one of the vital organs of the game of football, Bible intends to devote a full week to punt formation and its variations. Taking an invoice of punters, Sam Francis, of course, stands at the front, but in his immediate shadow are many. Jack Dodd, who has done little booting until this spring, has been booming out some fair Bpirals, as has Bill An dreson, the freshman find from Plainsville, Kas. Johnny Howell iB probably the most potent of all kickers in suit, doing most of this sort ot labor for the winning Reds in the demonstration scrimmages. As for placing the punts Thurston Phelps lias been about as deadly as a blonde's wink. Callihan, a Grand Island freshman who has been about the best line backer upper of the squad, with a little intense drilling . -M develop into a powerful kicker to say the least. Offense Lacking. In Saturday's grid mixer on the stadium sod offense was lacking. Every team on the field had de fense to spare but no one could get near enough to the double stripe to concern even the most excitable fan. Only on two sparse ly situated occasions did the Scar let jerseyed lads show any of the traditional fire. Once was when Andreson started a one man march and finally crossed to pay dirt in the first few moments of play. The second incident came when Dodd shook off the pack to run unhampered for a lengthy scurry and a second touchdown. Virgil Yelkin accounted for the first extra point scored this sea son as he booted a bull's eye from placement. Many new faces came up from the line for laurels. Shirey spent most of his afternoon unraveling after his numerous tackles, while he was ably assisted by Yelkin who was employed in turning the plays in. The lad who is now sporting the only all red uniform of the squad, McGinnis, stood out even without the assistance of the brilliant hues. Mehring was not outdone on the other guard, how ever. Those are the generous line standout nominations of the Red S. Peters Improves. In the backficld, there was not a black sheep among them as Howell piloted well and his three assistants showed A-l ball. I For the Whites much can be said as to new finds. Since the first day of practice Gus Peters has been putting all he has into his game, and that is a great deal. His blocking is par excellent and 8tand3 like that rock of something or other on defense. It is certain that he will have to be reckoned with by anyone who has any ideas concerning- a first team guard po sition. On the next to last play of Saturday's scrimmage Peters Injured his ankle. The injury was not as great as the pain, however. George Seeman on the other guard has more than the average lad to offer. The Omaha fuzz top weighs in at a near 200 poundage and is one of the fastest linemen of the Bible brood. Thus the race for a varsity guard berth shows that there will be a lot of fun when the selections are made next fall. Blue Roster. Mcrcicr, Richardson, and Ramey were spread all over the field de fensively, while Plock and Phelps starred in ball carrying roles. On the Blue roster there were perhaps only three satellites, one back mid two linemen. Again the forwards were guards. The first was Adna Donson, who the side lines were pointing out cs the best pro.ipi-ct on the field, nd the other was Eddie Bauer, younger burl of George Henry. Tiny Bud Gather drew much interest as he threw caution to the wind and tangled with the biggest to turn In an Impressive performance in all departments. SIX WIN FISTIC TITLES Small Number Fans Watch Champs Crowned in Second Meet. Six Nebraska boxers were crowned champions of their re spective weight classes in the sec ond all-university boxing tourna ment, staged Monday night in the coliseum before a small group of ring fans.

In the featherweight class there were only two entries competing Stuart Lomax and Bud Wolfe, each weighing in at. 127 pounds, put on a good exhibition that was close to Judge. Lomax was awarded the title. The comedy act of the evening was the bout between Meet Reese, 167, and Thomas Peterson, 164. Peterson opened the fight chasing Reuse all over the ring, but the lanky Reese, possessing a reach superiority, staved off Peterson's blows. All in nil, it was more like a track meet, but Reese was awarded the championship. Final bout of the evening was the heavyweight duel between Ice land McAllister. 1H0, and Bud White, 185. McAllister, after sev eral resounding blows to his head and plump mid-section, wont down for the count of nine, but got up to be saved a moment later by the bell. White continued whullnpiinr McAllister until the middle of the second round, when McAllister went down again. Referee Harold Matthews raised White's arm to award him the gold medal on a technical knockout. IN FIVE INTRAMURAL Horseshoe, Tennis, Track. Golf and Softball Still on Slate. Five intramural events remain on the intrafraternity calendar which is nearing competition as March draws to a close.

I Hchulte did not put the tracksters thru a hard workout, as the dust and wind hampered the men con siderably. Fred Chambers. Javelin tutor, spent the day with his proteges, Floyd Gleisberg, Edwin Frank3 and Lawrence Nelson, hurling' the spear on the sod of Memorial stad ium. Chambers reported that Gleisberg is consistently throwing the Javelin around 165 feet. Franks and Nelson are nhowing up quite well also. Distance runners and sprinters were assigned to take several turns around the track and call It a day. No run-offs for time were made. Several of the runners. In cluding Harold "Jake" Jacobsen and Les Pankonin, took their workout Indoors. Sam Francis spent several hours on the '"htll-top" with Coach Schulte working- on the shot put. Sam's best was 47 feet 7 inches, but his attempts Monday were mostly for form and not for dis tance. Sam is pointing towards the Texas Relays at which he hopes to put the shot fifty feet or better Spring football practice again cut into the attendance record of the tracksters. making the track scene look rather bare Monday. As soon as spring fotball ends, Coach Schulte is expecting to have a throng of trackmen out, seeking places on the Cornhusker spring track squad. Motion pictures are on Tuesday's program, according to Coach Schulte. Assistant Coach Ed Weir will film several of the Husker cinder path stars in action In order to analyze their technique and to better their forms. A. T. 0. DEBATES D. U.

OKI SP1GILL PERIOD Jones Devotes Much Time To Passing Attack, Running Plays. NORMAN, March 23. With tho whole 00-man squad obviously im proved both in team and individual play, Oklahoma's six weeks spiii: ; football practice ended Friday Capt. Lawrence "Biff" .Ion i built up his forward passing gain , smoothed tho running attack ti. i gave both freshmen and return. ; veterans a thorough drill aide hi side In plays and formations they will use next Sept. HO when they clash at Owen field In the opener against Coach Vic Hurt's Tulna university squad. Lack of tackles and of quarter backs who can run with the ball and the fact Oklahoma's blocking backs are all little fellows are frailties of the squad, Jones said. Final scrimmage of the session Friday found two of Captain Jones' wingbiitks, Nathan Anderson of Lawton and Otis Rogers of Oilton, running hard. Behind crisp well timed blocking which he followed skillfully, Anderson tore off runs of 30. 40 and 50 yards. Rogers" ball toting has been good all spring. Bill Breeden, wearing a face guard to protect a Jaw swollen by a recently pulled tooth, mur derously gashed the second team line with his quick hitting between the tackles. On the fourth play of the scrimmage ihc 200 pound Bieeclen bucked through the line and dodging like a halfback, ran 60 yards to the goal. Hugh McCullough. the Okla homa City freshman, ran at quar terback on the first string through much of the drill with Tom Short, 200 pound squad man from Ok mulgee, plaving tackle. Smart de fensive play of Bill Estell, 210 pound reserve tackle from Okla homa City, was a problem to the varsity offense. Captain Jones' stern concentra tion on forward passing and pass defense is commencing to bring re sults although there is still lots of work to do Sooner throwers are learning to hit the finger tips of a receiver in full flight. With the ending of spring foot ball, several pig-skinners will en ter other sports. Ralph Brown rushed off to Houston to compete in an Olympic wrestling tourney. Jack Baer went to Texas with the baseball club, Elmo "Bo" Hewes and Bill Breeden will report to the track squad.
