Semi-Finals; Sigma

With competition in five leagues
finished, four of the five division
champions swung: into action last
night in the opening games of the
playoff for the championship of
the intramural touchball tourna
ment. Sigma Chi, the remaining
team in the playoff, drew a bye
and will not see competition until
tonight.
Delta Upsilon was the Acacias
latest victim Ah it went down to
a 10-0 defeat at the hands of Dick
Smith and his brothers. In main
taining an unblemished goal line,
the Acacias were superior in every
department of the game. A smooth
passing attack, despite the adverse
weather conditions kept the D. V.'s
with their backs to their goals dur
ing most of the game.
Only touchdown came when Me
Kenzie snared a partially blocked
pass and stepped over the goal
line with plenty of room to spare.
The aerial was dished out by
Smith, who then stepped back to
his own 20 yard stripe and booted
the ball squarely between the up
rights for the extra counter. Later
in the third period Smith took ad-

the game with a field goal from
his own 30 yard line.
Chase and McKenzic shared th?
most of the burden with Smith
for the Auicia'a. Navity, Prouty
and Epperson were outstanding
for the D. U.'s.
Altho outplayed in almost every
department of the game, Farm
House cashed in on a blocked Phi
Delta punt and emerged on the
long end of a 6 to 0 score in the
quarter final lilt of the touch
football playoffs.
Led by jacobscn, Jensen and
Lowenstein. Farm House roamed
up and clown the gridiron. The
scoring break came late in the
game, and the 17th street men
were unable to break thru the
stubborn Farm House defense for
a counter tally.
The games were marked by the
superior passing attack and de
ceptive style that made each the
class in its league. The large crowd
of spectators present was repayed
with some of the best play wit
nesed this year.
The other semifinal game in the
playoff is scheduled to be held
tonight. Farm House will again
take the field, tnis time against
the Sigma Chi's who drew a bye
in the first night's play. The win

HUSKERS PAUSE
TRIBUTE 10
Bible Calls Halt to Honor
Gridmen's Friend Who
Died Last Year.
Thermometer readings fell lower
and lower Tuesday afternoon but
the sudden cold streak didn't ham
per the Huskers. On the contrary,
Coach Dana X. Bible's Scarlet and
Cream footballers seemed to enjoy
it, and a good practice session en
sued. Before the daily rehearsal
started, CoHch Bible gathered all
the Nebraska gridsters around him
for a silent tribute to the memory
of M. J. "Doc" McLean, Nebraska
trainer who died a year ago Tues
day. "Doc" was the rubber
downer for the Cornhuskers for
many years.
While the icy breezes swept
over the south practice lot. Ne
braska's gridders started off the
practice with the usual limbering
up exercises, followed by kicking
and passing.
"Hope this cold weather keeps
going south." chattered Nebraska's
rotund gridiron mentor as he
drifted over to the sideline to talk
to newsmen. "Hope it gets there
by Thursday," Bible added, "and
stays there until Saturday.''
Cold Stimulating.
Ron Douglas, Bill Andreson and
Thurston Phelps were booting the
long punts Tuesday, despite the
disadvantage of chilled fingers and
chilled toes. Johnny Howell. Har
ris Andrews, Bill Andreson, Thurs
ton Phelps and Ernie White were
tossing the passes against a strong
wind.
Coach Browne worked Monday
with a squad of Ed Weir's frosh in
structing them in Oklahoma plays
and formations and Tuesday the
frosh were given the opportunity
to run with the ball in a dummy
scrimmage against the varsity.
Group work for the line men and
backs completed the day's work
out. Sam Francis, who played a
sterling brand of football last Sat
urday despite an ankle injury, was
excused from Tuesday's practice,
but will work out with the team
for the rest of the week. He may
see some scrimmage action in the
regular Wednesday fracas against
the yearlings. Lloyd Cardwell
wasn't in uniform Tuesday but
worked out with the squad.
Hot in Sooner Land.
Coach Bible's remarks about
the weather weren't in jest. Down
in Soonerland it is uncomfortably
warm for hard-working football
men even in the middle of October.
The Sooner are accustomed to
this lingering heat and will have
one advantage when they line up
against the Cornhuskers Satur
day at Owen Field.
Nebraska, however, will carry a
four pound weight advantage in
the forward wall. The Sooner
line averages 191 pounds while the
regular Husker line averages 193
pounds. Nebraska's backfield
quartet of Howell-Douglas-Card-well-Francis
averages 1S3 pounds,
while the Sooner backs average
179 pounds.
Then lettermen and one sopho
more compose Coach "Biff Jones'
starting lineup. The sophomore is
Walter Young of Ponca City,
Okla., who weighs 190 pounds and
has been good enough to take a
flank position away from several
veterans. Six of the lettermen
are playing their last season and
the remaining four have another
fall to play.
Pete Smith and Walt Young are
the Sooner ends, Ralph Smith and
Ferd Ellsworth are tackles. Fred
Ball and Connie Ahrens are
guards to make up the Sooner
forward wall. There is a multi
tude of reserves behind each reg
ular. Big Bill Breeden is the h&f
shot in the Oklahoma backfield.
He weighs 201, stands six feet
two and fills the fullback position
to overflowing. Coach Browne
who scouted Oklahoma last week
in their 14-0 victory over Kan
sas reported that Breeden ia the
man to watch.
Elmo "Bo" Hewea and Al Cor
rotto are Major "Biff Jones half
back aces, who didn't see much
action in the Jayhawki tussle but
will be ready to attempt to run
circles around the Huskers.
At quarterback for the Sooneri
is Jack Baer, 170 pound Junior
from Shawnee, Okla., who is re
puted to be a clever little signal
caller and a shifty ball-toter.

Nebraskn and Oklahoma are on
top of the Big Six heap by virtue
of a Sooner 14-0 win over Kansas
last week and a Husker 34-0 win
over Iowa State several weeks
ago.
Iowa State took Kansas two
weeks ago, putting the Cyclones
ln third place and the hapless
Jaywalkers in the cellar position.
Missouri and Kansas State tied
7 up in their last game.
Conference games this week
find Nebraska against Oklahoma
in the biggest circuit battle. Last
year's score was 19-0 in favor of
the Biblemen. Kansas State and
Kansas play at Mount Oread this
vear. Last year, the Jays won 9 to
2, but the score this fall may be
quite different. Iowa State goes to
Columbia to play the Mizzou Tig
ers. Last year these teams tied
6 all.
Lloyd Cardwell, Nebraska's scor
ing halfback, still heads the con
ference individual scoring along
with Hays of Kansas State and
Neal of Iowa State. Each man has
tallied three touchdowns.
Lest we forget: Tuesday was the
first anniversary of the death of
Martin J. "Doc" McLean, Nebras
ka trainer, whose memory will be
long cheiished by the Cornhusk
ers. Scouting assignments this week
find Bill Day at PitLsburgh to
watch the Panthers meet the
Irish from Notre Dame. Ed Weir
is to chart the Mizzou-Cyclone
tilt.
Business Manager John K. Sel
leck reported tliat the attendance
at the Hoosier-Husker game last
Saturday totaled 34.070.
As you have no doubt sensed
by the smoke of local pages that
there is another blaze in the
Husker sport camp that will prob
ably smoulder all season as did
the Sugar Bowl harrangue of last
vear. It is doubtful, however, that
jthe thing will ever burst into a
serious conflagration.
The said embers are the follow
ing: Chicago V. has decided to
drop from the rolls of the Big Ten
conference. Without the tenth
entry, the conference can no
longer call themselves ten. as is
obvious. Thus they began casting
about for their most likely pros
pects to fill the breach. After
several days angling a letter was
mailed to Coach D. X. Bible, as it
was to several other football men
tors of national renown, asking
that their club join up with the
shortened league.
The letter is still gathering dust.
No word has come from the den
of the grid prof as to the inten
tions of the Husker action in the
proposition. Entering the com
petition of the Big Ten schools
would automatically cancel any
bond with the Big Half Dozen in
which Nebraska now plays.
If we may be allowed to edi
torialize a mite, our conviction
would run about thutly: To
take the offer of the larger
conference would be like leav
ing a feather bed for a two
decker straw tick. At present
Big Six champion and Nebraska
are synonymous. Likewise, pres
tige of the middle west and
Husker are synonymous. In
brief, they are th tops of their
little circle, which is not ao
small at that.
There are two detrimental
angles to aeeing the Huskers Join
up with any new outfit. The first
is that the Big Six would drop to
a new low unless the Cornhuskers
were replaced by a mighty worthy
team. They are the onion of the
Big Sir sandwich and are indis
pensable to the league.
Another aelfish reason for my
not favoring the change ia that
the Huskers would probably not

TWO-MILERS PRACTICE
Schulte's Cross Country
Squad
Buries Defeat
Of Last Week.
BY JOE 2ELLEY.
Unperturbed by last week's do
feat at the hands of Kansas State,
Coach Henry Schulte's two milers
reported for practice yesterday at
Memorial stadium with a solemn
resolution to topple their next an
tagonists. Mentor Jonn Jacobs'
Oklahoma Sooiurs. The cross
country meet between the two
teams will be held in conjunction
with the Ncuraaka-Oklalmma foot
ball dual at Norman this coming
Saturday.
Inasmuch as the Normans arc
known to be repleted with pood
two mile men. the Cornhuskers
are conceded a :0-.'u chance ot
absconding with a triumph Should
Fred Mattcson, Wilson Andrews
and BM West hit their respective
gaits, the contingencies of a Hu.sk
er victory will be greatelv en
hanced, in the meet against K
Aggies, West finished louith and
Matteson fifth. Andrews iid not
have a role in that meet, but he is
counted on heavily by Pa Schulte
to be ready for the Oklahomans
this Saturday.
A frigid breeze whipping in from
the north greeted yesterday's
practice: but nevertheless some 10
or more robust tracksters we.it out
to defy Old Man Weather's cold
blasts. Being aclimatcd to cold
autumn days, the Huskers should
find the sunny weather at Nor
man to their liking.
Other meets on the Nebraska
two mile schedule are: Missouri,

Here in the present situation they

Week before last's encounter
proved that the annual would be
much more intensive than at pres
ent. Year after annus Nebraska
has played Pittsburgh and Min
nesota with little success. That
is, no victories. Minnesota is in
the Big Ten. Pittsburgh has oft
been conquered by Big Ten mem
bers, barely bumping Ohio state
two weeks ago. Last Saturday in
a game with the lower bracket
Indianans the Huskeis ha i to
work fast to pull the game out of
the fire.
Perhaps this year Nebraska can
find rehuttle for everything I have
mentioned, but only because they
have a sttong team this year.
It is not every year that our
school can toss out a bunch of
men so sturdy, so adept at grid
ding. It is my belief that when
the final invitation comes for the
Big Ten substitution it will come
with the idea that the ling lead
ers of the conference favor Ne

is because of their mediocrity.

absence of restraint and simi
larly that, peace is the absence of
war, rather than peace is the es

The culturalist added that free

Liberating Education.
According to Spaeth, power and
freedom belong together. He urged
that education should teach people
to add themselves up. for a lib
eral education is really but a lib
crating one.
"A political program that re
members the forgotten man and
then forgets the memorable man
has within it the seed of social
degradation," Spaeth philoso
phized, lie said that while every
one may be in the spirit with the
principles of the New Deal, the
real issue is the ways of achieving
this end. Admitting he was mak-

that power derived from frfedom

power coupled with goodwill.
