Kenneth Shlndo, dexterous
sophomore end from Grand Island,
tallied the first "B" touchdown.
About midway in the first quar
ter, Marvin Plock, fleet reserve
halfback, ran the ball 30 yards
and planted it on his own 45 yard
line. An end-around play by
Shindo brought the spere to the
Wesleyan 42 yard stripe, then an
aerial heave from Ernie White,
quarterback, to Shindo put the
albino sphere over the goal line.

CLARK TO ADDRESS
OMAHA CREDIT MEN
Uni InslriK-lor to Discuss
Monetary Situation
Of Nations.
"International Razzle Dazzle"
will be the subject of Dr. John
D. Clark's address at the luncheon
meeting of the Omaha Association
of Credit Men Thursday at C p. m.
As guest instructor in economic
law for the first semester at the
University of Nebraska, Dr. Clark
has appeared before many Nebras
ka audiences.
In his talk Thursday he will
touch upon international exchange,
devaluation and the general mone
tary situation.
to the pay territory. Callihan
then nonchalantly sent the ball
zooming thru the uprights to
make the count 14 to 0 for the
Nubbins.
The cond period was still in
its imaney when the "B" squad
obtained another counter. A GO
yard drive, featuring ruthless line
plunges by Callihan and Phelps,
and a lateral from White to
Fischer gave the Comhuskers six
more points. The educated toe of
Callihan again brought an extra
marker, making the score read
21 to 0 for the "B" clique.
Plainsmen Score.
With dander in their hearts,
Coach Farley's cohorts resolved to
get their portion of the touchdown
dessert. Recovering a fumble by
Bill Cline, late in the second quar
ter, on the Husker 15 yard chalk
line, Dawson Hawkins, diminutive
Wesleyan tailback, pushed the hall
over for the initial Methodist
reckoning. Hawkins' extra point
boot was snowed under, thus giv
ing Coach Ely's charges a 21-6
lead at the intermission.
The third quarter was clut
tered with thrills but was much
devoid of scores. Time after time
the Huskers would penetrate
deeply into the Plainsmen's
haunis, but nary could they regis
ter a counter. The dearth of "B"
tallies in this canto can be ex
plained very easily; the Wesleyan
secondary of Hawkins, Staley and
Shuman thwarted all Nubbin en
deavors to make yardage.
After contributing three extra
points. Bill Callihan, who had
been smashing the Wesleyan for
ward to smithereens, came thru
i with a touchdown. With the aid
j of Plock and White, Bill crossed
I the goal to make the score read
2S-6 for the Nubbins.
Lloyd Grimm, end from Omaha,
was responsible for the last coun
ter of the fray for the reserves.
Thurston Phelps, adept quarter
back from Exeter, flung a 30 yard
pass into the cool ozone, and lo
and behold the pellet landed into
the waiting arms of Grimm. His
catch was eccentric in that he
had to reach overhead to get his
cohesive fingers on it. Phelps'
placekick was good. Nebraska
"B" 35, Wesleyan 6.
Frequent fumbles marred the
performance of both outfits, and
many of these lapses were costly,
especially for Wesleyan. Dawson
Hawkins, Art French and Chet
Arthur were the limelights of the
Methodist coterie; Kenneth Shin
do, Ascher Brown, Bob Ramey
and Perry Franks were the stand
outs in the reserve line. Eill
Callihan's pile-driving line smash
es and Marvin Ploek's lengthy
and speedy jaunts were the high
lights in the "B" backfield.
KANSAS TWO-MILERS

36-19 in Favor of
K-Statrrs.
Coach Henry Schulte's two-mile
team opened its fall track season
yesterday by dropping a 36-to-19

run preceded the heart-palpitating
Nebraska-Indiana football contest.
Captain Hedficld and Whcclock,
highly vaunted Kaggie runners,
tied for first, and second, both
being timed at 10:00. Another K
Stater, Sweat, garnered unto him
self a third while Bob Wesl,
Husker representative, captured
lourth place.
The other transcoiii.try men fin

Yesterday; Memorial Stadium;
Nebraska vs. Indiana.
Jotting tings down as they
come chronologically thru the
game it keeps cold sweat trickling
down one's spine. Before the game
Husker fans were saying "Who's
your favorite?" only out of tradi
tion. No one so much as thought
"Hoosier favorite." However, these
big boys from Indiana rolled into
Lincoln with something on their
chest. Nebraska was on top of
the heap to them and they wanted
to share the mound. People of this
city of the expensive capital took
them only with a minimum amount
of concern. To them the Hoosiers
were only a bottom Big Ten team
that accidentally took Michigan,
but the Huskers were a crest rid
ing Big Sixer.
These all black suits of yes
terday's visitor's might vvcll be
compared to the color of the
dark horse which they were.
The way they rolled their sleeves
and waded into the task in the
first half earned them all the
plaudits of the press box, out
downing the home boys pitifully
and shoving the mall over the
field with either arial or terres
tial attacks.
This boy Huffman has kept us
studying and marveling all the
first half. He reminds us of two
former all stars who have visited
Memorial s-tadium. They were Red
Grey of Oregon State anil Jay
Bcrwanger of Chicago U. Both
boys ran in high gear, sliding thru
a so'id mr.ss of Biblenien's out
stretched arms. Likewise this
Huffman has the same ability. His
sides look like they were spread
with butter. Seldom all afternoon
was he brought down by linemen,
it was always secondaries that
nailed him. From the high seats
it looks like he digs like the famed
Francis, speeds like Cardwell, and
parses like no one we have ever
seen, unless it might have been
Dead Arm Franklin of Oregon
State history.
Evidently Nebraska learned
one lesson from the Gophers last
week judging from the identical
lateral reverse employed on the
games third kickoff. It might
have been good, as Cardwell
sped down the left side on a pass
from Callihan, had Fowler been
removed from the path. Another
first half impression including
more Minnesota patter, is that
the local bys are not making
good fast and it is the common
conjecture that the Nordics
caused the radical beg ,ing. Or
then again it might be fatigue
as many suppose.
How, thru a long line of years,
can Nebraska maintain the same
characteristic of a slow starting
teams. Only a minute ago 1 was
penning morbid lines like Poe and
the Raven. Then the second canto
opened like a romshell with the
Scarlet lads riddling the Hoosier
line. In that second period the form
was that same superb ball that
outplayed all foes in the last half.
Francis, thctate's idle overnight,
might be the psychological reason.
It has been a long time since any
one Nebraska player received such
a rousing ovation on warmup ac
tion as Ram'l did yesterday. The
last in my memory was that of
Claire Sloane of some seven years
ago.
The stadium is in an uproar at
present with the Huskers .seeming
ly goal bent. Now Howell just
passed to MacPonald with one of
those dead-eye aerials that fire he
coming tradition. For a minute the
stadium is wild, bands blare, but
as is local fan custom, they set
tled back to (hatting after the
score, failing to realize that the
tally was only 7 to 9, with their
team on the scant end.
Speaking of McDonald, the
Grand Island Les is standing out
along with Center Erock like tho
Normandie in an outboard con
clave. In the pictorial section of
last Sunday's periodicals the big
end was always the center of in
terest, either snatching thorn from
the heavans or dumping some big
I northerner. Another All-America
! prospect ? That makes five.
! Francis' bad peg seems to bother
! him only in kicking. He seems to
pull his punc hes on the boots, mak
; ing his average drop considerably.

The said test came and some ot
the smartest quarterbacking ever
was pulled by Signal Barker

he ran battering ram Francis thru
the center until the Hoosiers were

13 to 9, Nebraska at last.
On top of this P B K quar
terbacking Indiana took the
longest chance ever and lost. In
stead of punting on the fourth
as expected they hurled a spiral
incomplete, Huskers ball on the
Hoosier 37. It wasn't a bone
head, however, not in the par- ,
lance of good football, for they
knew they could hold and did it.
If they had connected, the scorer
might have changed some fig
ures. Still playing this weird football,
our invaders are still trying to
pass their way down the field from
the goal post shadows. Probably
the queerest procedure of any big
time elevens, for the still remains
seven minutes to score. If they
succeed in this mad campaign of
pigskin and caution tossing suc
ceeds our hats are off to the gods
of football, the Hoosiers; if not,
hail another Husker score. Whew!
They finally punted!

stitute for orchids with his ever
ready strategy. Knowing that the
Huskers have been known to lapse
In death bed moments, he began
inserting fresh replacements and
for a minute it looked like his mis
sion was not fruitless.
Again Charley Brock went in to
snag two interceptions. Thus giv
ing him a total of seven in three
games.
A graph of play of this highly
spiced game today would no doubt
show that Indiana play was an
animated old faithful, never vary
ing in play potency, while Ne
braska action was on a steep in
cline starting from cellar and end
ing stellar. A feature of all day
was a pair of duels, one between
Sam Francis, whose presence bol
stered his mates into a spirited
victory tally, and Vernon Huff
man, greasy Hoosier quarter. The
other tussle was quarterbacking,
again starring Huffman versus
Johnny Howell. Strange and
stragetic was the style of signal
calling as both teams finessed lo
the finish. Huskerites can now go
home and sleep well in their
trundle beds sin.-:e Nebraska ha,s
safely crossed the psychological
swamp 13 to 9.
