BY ED STEEVES.
Last weekend found two unex
pected contenders dusting: off the
Big Six throne for use this season.
They were Kansas university and
our own Husker cagers, both of
whom knocked off a couple of un
defeated quintets in Oklahoma U
and Missouri respectively. This
action leaves no Big- Six team
with an undefeated schedule and
only two undefeated in conference
play.
Before the weekend's festivities
Nebraska and last year's champs
were considered a couple of fair
and so so mediocrities with Mis
souri and Oklahoma holding all
the aces. The Huskers have been
generally conceded and edge over
the Jayhawkers.
Cyclones Bite Dust Twice.
Kansas State took one on the
solar plexis with a stiff 47-41 de
feat from Oklahoma and then
pivoted and socked the cellar in
habitant, Iowa State, 44-31. The
Cyclones also accepted a bitter
loss from Creighton.
Nebraska fans were very busy
crossing fingers as the Huskers
journeyed against the Missouri
Tigers, but were clenching tightly
to the hope that the eastern trip
had given them the stuff to wal
lop the formerly undefeated Ti
gers. The victory came not as a
shock to the Nebraska fans but as
a gentle surprise in the way of
score.
Amen, who has been sprinting
up the ladder since the checkout,
finally loosened up and let himself
run amuck as he overshadowed
every one else on the floor with
brilliant point gaining and maple
play. Rifling 13 points, he is now
sure of a forward spot.
Amen High Scorer.
In the first ten minutes of play
Amen and Bob Parsons ran up 11
points on their side of the score
board to the Tiger's none. Feeling
a bit confident at the whirlwind
exhibition, the Huskers settled
back a little too casually and the
Missourians pulled up to tie the
score at the half.
The second half found both
teams taking its turn at the lead
until Amen and Sorensen took it
upon themselves to settle the whole
affair. A late Missouri rally was
of no avail as the Huskers plugged
along in steady style to protect
their prized margin, winning 31-22.
Team members were more than
satisfied with their showing in the
Mule state and named it as their
best showing of the season. With
out doubt the feature of the game
was the finding of Amen, thus
eliminating the possibility of Par
sons moving to a forward.

(By '
Mylon Creighton, former Goth
enburg high all-around athlete
who is now manager of the Chi
cago Cardinals, professional foot
ball outfit, conferred with Ne
braska officials Monday after
noon in regard to a potential pro
gridman from the ranks of the
Cornhusker seniors. Object of his
trip to Huskerland was Virgil
Yelkin, who completed his grid
career this past fall and who may
enter the professional arena to be
paid for his grid playing at right
end.
Boss of the Cardinals, Creighton
was an all-state man in both foot
ball and bas
ketball from
Gothenburg for
two years
around 1926.
" T o m m y "
Thompson was
his high school
coach and a
former Nebras
ka athlete.
Thompson was
elevated from
"Swedeville" to
Arkansas and
Creighton went
VIRGIL. rELKlhJ along with
Thompson who is now head coach
of the Razorbacks. Creighton was
an All American under Thomp
son at Arkansas.
Whether or not a deal is made
between Yelkin and Creighton re
mains to be seen. Creighton is in
need of another good flank man
for his squad and Yelkin is just
the man tor the job. The offer of
the Cardinals' manager and Yel
kin's willingness to play football
for a living are the two matters
under fire.
Sam'l Francis is under a
glass cage from the professional
football viewpoint. He wont'
take the stipend that the Phila
delphia Eagles proffered him
and since the Eagles have the
option on Nebraska's versatile
fullback thru the draft arrange
ments that the national pro
leagues have yearly, Sam'l may
turn out to be a holdout. Like
young Bob Feller, the sensa
tional kid baseball pitcher, for
instance, whose ante was con
siderably upped by the major
league bigshots. The Eagles
may decide to turn the option
on Sam'l over to some other pro
outfit for a price and, if Sam'l
still wants to play pro ball, he'll
go to the club that offers him
the best price, while holding the
option in the other hand. Get
all yo'i can get, Sam'l; pro ball,
they say, is tough sledding!

ON ALL-STAR ELEVEN
Francis, Cardwell, Brock
Selected on Opposing
Honor Roll.
Coming home with the scent of
roses from the bowl, the Pittsburgh
Panthers scrambled all their foes
in an attempt to pick an all op
ponent eleven. When all the
stirring was over by both players
and coach, three Nebraska players
rose to the top of the omelet. They
were the expected Sam Francis
and Lloyd Cardwel, and in the way
of a surprise Charlie Brock.
The Panthers reported playing
against the countries best pivot
men, but Charlie Brock was the
best they had seen. They recog
nized Francis for his kicking and
plunging. It was in the Husker
Panther mix that Sam let that punt
fly for better than eighty yards
n the air.
Cardwell, in spite of being in
jured early in the Smokey City
fray, was picked as one of the
country's best two half backs.
The team included: Byron
Hains of Washington; Boyd Brum
baugh of Duquesne; Wojciehowicz
of Fordham and Cherundolo of
Penn State in the backfield.
Wendt, Ohio State and Paquin,
Fordham, ends; Barbartsky, Ford

tackles; Henrion, Carnegie Tech
and Peirce, Fordham, guards and
Brock, Nebraska, in the line.

Knightmen Face Busy Week
With Three Contests

Idle since the conclusion of the

the Knightmen amble to Crete for
a match against Mentor Gene Hay

Out to avenge a previous set
back handed them, the Nebraskans
go to Kearney Friday for a dual

Teachers. The week's bombarding
comes to a climax Saturday night

and worth of human experiences.
"Children should be given th
facts concerning the government
and conditions of Russia, of Ger
many, and of Italy," Dr. Tittle as
serted. "If we are to think we
should be given the facts of the
world and should be allowed to
evaluate its institutions. People
cannot think if they are given the
answers in advance or if they are
allowed but one conclusion."
Attacks Fascism.
Fascist philosophy is wholly in
compatible with the kind of edu
cation which the world needs, the
pastor explained. He expressed the
belief that it is merely an attempt
to bolster up a crumbling order
that has outlived its usefulness.
He said that it is the result of
war conditions, and compared it
to the futile struggling of a drown
ing man who has spied a straw.
Dr. Tittle described fascism as
a "naturalistic philosophy" in
which there is no place for God.
He said that God is conceived in
a transcendant form, and declared
that Hitler wants to make the
country his people's god.
"If we are wise we will try to
promote a high religious concep
toin of life upon which our culture
is essentially based," Dr. Tittle
concluded, "and upon which our
whole existence is dependent."
It's beginning to look as if more
people resolved to, cut 8 o'clocks
than to attend them.
