DEADLY OPPONENT
LOOMS ON HUSKER
GRID SLATE-PITT
Despite Loss, Pittsburgh
Record Real Threat to
Scarlet Supremacy.
By Morrie Lipp.
Like the recent election, Coach
D. X. Bible's Cornhuskers swept
into office in the Bix Six by vir
tue of a 26-0 victory over Kan
sas Jayhawkers Saturday, forgot
the present midwest gril problem
and became concerned with a na
tional problem Pitt.
This national problem conies to
Lincoln this Saturday as the fea
ture game on the Cornhusker slate
along with post-Armistice Day
festivities. Powerful as ever, the
Panthers from the smoky city will
attract an estimated 30,000 crowd
from all over the mid "est.
This year, the Pitt-Husker sit
uation Is quite an even-steven af
fair. Pitt dropped a game to little
Duquesne 6-0 in a great intercity
upset that has been referred to as
"the mirage of Duquesne." Ne
braska has had only one loss, as
Minnesota scored a last minute
tally to win 6-0.
Duquesne Only Loss.
Besides a scoreless tie with
Fordham, Jock Sutherland's Pan
thers have scored victories over
Ohio Wesleyan o3-0. West Virginia
84-0, Ohio State 6-0. Notre Dame
26-0 and Penn State 31-7. Only
two tallies have been chalked up
against the Panthers Substitute
George Matsck's 72-yard run to
give Duquesne their unexpected
win. Patrick scored a touchdown
last Saturday for Tcnn State's
lone- score. Pitt has averaged 22
points In each game, while the
Cornhuskers have scored an av
erage of J 9 points per contest.
That canny Scot, Coach Jock
Sutherland who is always bemoan
ing something or other, saw to it
Saturday at Pittsburgh that his
Panthers would be in shape for
the Huskerland jaunt. He used 42
men in the game which saw the
Quakers collapse after the on
slaught of the Panther shock
trooptt.
Penn State did a lot of fumbling
that paved the way for the Pitt
score-makers. Bill Daddia, Pitt left
end. downed a Penn State fumble
on State's 25. After three line
plays, Marshall Goldberg, 18-ycar
old sophomore halfback find, flip
ped a pass to Harold Stebbins,
Goldberg's running mate, for the
initial score.
Goldberg Runs Wild.
A 45-yard sprint by Goldberg in
an 80-yard offensive drive was the
means to another Pitt score. Frank
Patrick, powerful Pitt fullback,
plunged for the score. Penn State,
aroused by the Pitt scoring, took
Pitt's klckoff and marched down
the field to score.
Jock Sutherland doesn't like
teams that score on his Panthers,
so he sent in another shock troop
that turned the melee into a scor
ing spree. Stebbins started the
scoring with a 45-yard run and
later going through tackle to
score. Johnny Woods, substitute
back, fielded a Penn punt and re
turned it 47 yards to score. Pitt
recovered a fumble and Urban
raced 45 yards to account for tho
final score.
Aside from the great number
of touchdowns, Pitt has offensive
power. The Panthers accrued 15
first downs to Penn State's 8, and
outgaincd their rivals 457 yards to
20h yards.

First there is the foreward de
partment. Paul Amen, Olympic
baseballer and scoring end. will
be on hand to add his speed and
clever ball handling to the squad.
Amen is a junior with two more
years of competition. His stature
is not so high, but his speed and
aggresiveness are equivalent to
his other lacks. Howard Baker is
another lettering and diminutive
forward. Standing low in his stock
ing feet Baker will be putting in
his third year on the Husker cage
squad and has retained thi3 posi
tion by his speed and timely scores
including many long swishers.
Great Scott's.
Another pair of forwards are
George and Cliff Scott, who ar
of no kin. Both played last season
with Cliff turning in B team
performance and George saving
his year of competition for bigger
things in the varsity toils. Both
are rangy and good shots. George
especially has a cage background
and has among his qualities a
steadfast defense.
From the sophomore ranks.
Werner, Schock and Kvonda all
appear to have the same chances
as first year men that Bob Par
sons had a year ago. Al Werner
in particular has possibilities. He
is tall, a good eye, fast, strategic,
and defensive. In fact, he ranks
as one of the two very outstanding
sophomores. Kvonda is short, and
plenty fast. Schock is a dead eye.

In the defensive department,
Browne has one regular and one
very slick one in Bob Parsons, all
conference guard of last season.
Parsons is only a junior and has
two more seasons to plug for the
scarlets with his net burning
abilitv.. The elongated and speedy
guard has a method of defense
peculiar to the Parson family.
Both he and his brother Bob wait

spring there were two men stand
ing head and shoulders above their
mates in the guard department of
the freshman class but only one
has returned to the fold. Howard
Richards .former Lincoln high star,
is hot on the rolls this year, but
Ernie White of football fame is
still on tap. White is running over
with aggressiveness and cage
brains. As you will remember he
piloted the gridders at quarter
back a good deal this year and
that same mentality in sports
carries him on to big things.
Practice as yet has consisted
mostly of fundamentals, but in
tensive ones. Scrimmage will get
underway next week.
Encouraged by their showing
last year, the Huskers have
tackled a tougher schedule, in
cluding the Christmas holiday trip
to the east cost. With the above
named prospecta the tougher
schedule should fit accordingly
with the glowing possibilities.

A K-Aggie-Husker tie will still
give top honors to the Biblemen.
In these hectic football days,
Nebraska's grid record for this
season is more than outstanding,
it's miraculous. Nary a conference
foe has, as yet, passed the Corn
husker goal line, leaving the Ne
braskans high and dry, unscored
upon, undefeated and untied in
circuit competition.
Kansas State, Nebraska's sole
remaining Big Six opponent upon
whom falls the task of attempting,
like the rest, to stop the Scarlet '
and Cream juggernaut that has
been steamrollering into national
prominence these days, battled it
out with Oklahoma last week at
Norman to emerge with a 6 to 6
tie. Maurice "Red" Elder, ace
K-Aggie back, ran 74 yards to
score in the first four minutes of
the game.
Missouri went out of the league
to play Washington U at St. Louis
and came back with a close 13 to 7
victory. Iowa State rested Satur
day with an open date.
Conference foes this week are
split up, as Michigan State comes
to Lawrence to pluck some Jay
hawk feathers, Missouri and Okla
homa fight out their third place tie
at Norman, and Nebraska enter
tains the Golden Horde of Pitt
Panthers at Lincoln.
Bill Day, veteran Husker
scout, should have plenty to tell
the Cornhuskers this week re
Pitt. He's seen Pitt trip Notrs
Dame, Penn State and tie Ford
ham. Bill will take charge of one
yearling team this week to show
them Pitt formations which the
frosh will demonstrate against
the varsity. Closed practice is
the order this week.
Fordham's decisive 15 to 0 vic
tory over Purdue's Boilermakers

listed as Ram conquests. Pitt has
